Unbreakable Melodies

To new friendships

As their relationship blossomed, Nandini introduced Manik to her world of colors and canvas. And well for Manik his world revolved around music and Friends, serving as his only confidant. The bond that they share explains the name they have for their band, their group, their home, the Fab5. "One for All, all for one".

One fine night while texting each other Manik finally decided to ask her if she is up to meeting his friends. It's really important for him to know this. Well he have no doubt about them loving her it's mainly about her being comfortable around them.
Well let's just say he's in for a surprise surely because coming days will soon tell him that.

Manik: Hey, Nandini! Hope your day is going well. Listen, the guys from Fab5 are planning to hang out this weekend. Would you be interested in meeting them?

Nandini: Hey, Manik! My day's been pretty good, thanks. Meeting Fab5, huh? That sounds like fun! When and where?

Manik: Awesome! It's this Saturday evening at that cool rooftop café everyone's been talking about. I think you'll enjoy their company.

Nandini: Sounds great! I've heard so much about Fab5, it'll be nice to finally meet them in person.

Manik: They're a bit... eccentric, but I think you'll manage just fine. Just be prepared for a lot of jokes and banter.

Nandini: Don't worry, I can hold my own in the banter department. 😄 And I promise I won't let their eccentricities overwhelm me.

Manik: I have no doubt about that. But if things get too crazy, I'll be right there to back you up.

Nandini: Thanks, Manik! I appreciate that. Looking forward to meeting your friends and spending time together.

Manik: Me too. Just a heads up though, they might ask you some interesting questions about me. You'll have to survive their curiosity.

Nandini: Consider me intrigued. I'll make sure to gather some fun facts about you in case they start the interrogation. 😉

Manik: Haha, I'll be counting on you to keep the situation under control. See you on Saturday, Nandini!

Nandini: Can't wait, Manik! I'm sure it'll be a memorable evening. See you soon!

Nandini: Good night Manik:)

Manik: Good night Captain Canvas!

With excitement and anticipation they both went to sleep.

The weekend arrived rather soon than expected. They enter a cozy cafe, where their friends are already gathered around a table.

Alya: grinning "Well, well, look who finally decided to join us. Late as usual, Manik?"

Manik: smirking "Fashionably late, Alya. It's an art."

Nandini: playfully "Oh, is that what they call it now?"

Cabir: raising an eyebrow "Who's this feisty newcomer? You didn't tell us you were bringing a new muse, Manik."

Manik: introducing "Everyone, this is Nandini. Nandini, meet Cabir, Alya, Dhruv, and Mukti."

Nandini: smiling "Hi, nice to meet you all."

Dhruv: grinning "So, Manik, have you finally found someone who can keep up with your brooding?"

Manik: rolling his eyes "Dhruv, you and your obsession with my 'brooding'."

Mukti: chuckles "Well, Nandini, welcome to the madness. You're in for a ride."

Alya: curious "So, Nandini, how did you and Manik meet?"

Nandini: glancing at Manik "Oh, you know, just a chance encounter by a window."

Cabir: wiggling his eyebrows "A chance encounter by a window, huh? Sounds like the beginning of a romantic novel."

Manik: sighs "Don't encourage him, Cabir."

Nandini: playfully "Don't worry, I'm well-versed in handling brooding window-sitters."

Mukti: raising a toast "To new friendships and unexpected encounters!"

They all raise their glasses and clink them together.

The meeting with Manik friends adds a layer of camaraderie and humour to their story, showing how their friends playfully tease and welcome Nandini into their circle.
