The tail end of the party buzzed with a mellow energy. Laughter still echoed, though softer now, mingling with the clinking of glasses as the last few guests lingered.

Ishan stood with Shubman and his manager, near the grand entrance, offering final goodbyes and warm smiles to the guests . Shubman, ever the charming host, had his arm loosely around Ishan's waist, his easygoing banter filling the air.

Suddenly, Ishan's phone vibrated in his pocket. He pulled it out, the screen flashing Daisy's name. He furrowed his brows .

Ovi ,She must have woken up. His little one usually slept soundly, but sometimes she'd have these sudden spells of wanting only her Mumma ...

guess what ?

The little devil learnt to imitate his brother's every words , Ishan taught her to call him Papa , but she heard Ivan calling Ishan Mumma , so she also calls Ishan Mumma with her baby accent .

"Excuse me for a moment," Ishan murmured, offering a polite smile to the elderly guest .

He caught Shubman's eye, tilting his head towards the phone and mouthing, "A call ." Shubman nodded understandingly .

Ishan turned and walked briskly towards the hallway leading to the elevators.

The party noise faded slightly as he moved away, but it was still a muffled hum in the background, making it difficult to hear.

He pressed the phone to his ear,

"Daisy tai ? What is it?"

Her voice was faint, almost inaudible , as if she were speaking from a distance. Static crackled intermittently, further obscuring her words.

"...Ishan dada ...can you...suite..."

Ishan frowned, straining to decipher her message. "Daisy tai , I can barely hear you. Your voice is breaking up. Is Ovi alright?"

"...yes...Ovi's...sleeping...but..." Her voice trailed off again.

He moved closer to the wall, hoping for a better signal. "But what, Daisy tai ? What is it?"

He finally managed to catch a few more words. "...come...I...something..."

Daisy sounded strange, her usual cheerful tone replaced by something... else. He shook his head, dismissing his apprehension as a trick of the poor network.

"Okay, okay, I'm coming. Wait for me ."

"...okay...come..."

"Hmm ," Ishan said firmly, ending the call.

He stood there for a moment, a lingering disquiet settling over him. Daisy's voice... it hadn't just been the bad connection. There was something else there.

He needed to tell Shubman that he was heading upstairs. Turning back towards the grand hall, the vibrant energy of the remaining guests . He spotted Shubman instantly, still in the same spot, now animatedly talking with two men who looked like they were from overseas.

As Ishan walked towards him , stopping just beside Shubman.

Shubman, mid-sentence, noticed Ishan's presence. He turned his head, his dimples flashing as his eyes met Ishan's.
