5: Coffee Date.

The Hospital, in Fazilka:

Aadhya and Anisha were on the video call with Kanishka and Kashvi, while Shubman and Abhishek sat on the sofa, "minding" their own business.

"Someone here's managed a coffee date," Kanishka said.

"Kashvi Singh, who's the guy?" Aadhya asked.

"Ishan."

"OH MY GOD!!" Anisha and Aadhya said, shouted to be exact, at the same time.

"Ladies everything okay!?" Shubman asked.

"Yeah, everything is okay." Aadhya replied. Both of them, had forgotten that the boys' were still sitting there.

"Ishan asked our friend Kashvi out on a date. A coffee, date." Anisha explained.

"That's great- wait are you talking about Ishan Kishan?" Abhay asked.

"Yeah." Aadhya said.

"That's interesting, he didn't even tell us." Abhay said.

"As if he'd tell a kid." Anisha muttered.

"What was that Anisha?"

"Nothing." She said, faking a smile at Abhay.

As Kashvi, Kanishka and Aadhya were speaking to each other, and Shubman was on his phone to Shreyas and Ishan, Abhay whispered to Anisha: "I know a fake smile when I see one, sunshine."

"Who did you just call sunshine?"

"What?" Abhay asked, pretending to not know anything.

"I said, who did you just call sunshine?"

"Do you know?" Abhay teased.

"I know, but do you?"

"Oh God, Anisha." Abhay said, becoming serious and staring straight at Anisha's eyes.

"What?"

"Your eyes, they're red..."

Mumbai, the next evening:

"I don't know what to wear Kanishka! And Ishan will be here in half-hour to pick me up." Kashvi said, panicking, throwing tops, dresses, and on the bed.

Rather, they landed on Kanishka mostly. 

"K, rather than panicking, calm down. Main outfit dhoondh kar deti hu." Kanishka said, instructing Kashvi to sit down while Kanishka looked at the clothes.

Giving her a blue and white lined top, and a skirt, Kanishka said: "Kashvi, try this on."

"You look great," Kanishka said as Kashvi came out from the bathroom.

"Are you sure?" 

Just then, Kanishka received a message from Shreyas: 

S: Hey Kanishka! I hope I'm not disturbing you, but if I am, I apologize. I just wanted to seek a favor from you. Can we meet, either today or tomorrow?

Kanishka smiled, seeing the message.

"Is it Shreyas?" Kashvi asked.

 "Yeah. He wants a favor, from me. And he wants to meet."

"Well, you helped me, so now I'll help you, find an outfit." Kashvi said opening Kanishka's closet.

"But your date-"

"Wait, first reply back." Kashvi said, taking Kanishka's phone and replying:

Kanishka: Hey Shreyas. No, nothing to apologize for! Sure, what favor? And yeah, we can meet today.
