[2 days later...]

It is the day of the concert. Naman and Nidhi are waiting desperately for Nandini's return. They are satisfied though, as they had Manik, their 'dad' with them and they felt complete together. They are enjoying his company and Manik loves them like his own kids. After all, they are his own kids.

~~Manik's POV~~
It is 1 p.m. We have our lunch. After lunch, the kids and I leave for school. The concert is to take place in the school auditorium and the judges who are going to witness the program are renowned musicians. But, their names are unknown. We reach by 2. I meet all my friends and their kids before the starting act. The program is to start by 4 but we all need to do a stage rehearsal once.

Manik: "Happy Friendship Day guys!" I hug Alya, Dhruv, Mukti, Abhimanyu, Cabir and side-hug Navya.

Cabir: "Happy Bir... Nah... Friendship Day!"

Alya and Dhruv (together): "Same to you all too, guys!"

Mukti and Abhi: "Happy Friendship Day!"

Mukti: "Guys, this day marks our 20-year-old friendship!" Is it? Yeah! Cool. We all again have a group hug.

All the kids in the school also wish each other and tie friendship bands to each other, their fellow-mates, teachers and parents. After tieing the friendship bands and wishing, we all move towards our seats. The kids, I mean, the kids of 'The Fab 5' help us get ready for our performance. We get ready in the backstage while, the host comes on stage.

Host: "Hey everyone! Happy Friendship Day to all my dear teachers, parents and children. I hope you all are just as excited as I am, for this competition." All of them start hooting loud.

Everyone: "Yesss... Yeah... Hoo..."

Host: "That's great. So I won't take much of your time. I would just like to tell you all that we, at Warrior Elementary School, are very honoured to have you all here with us this evening. Every good thing has a beautiful beginning. So for the opening act for today, I call upon the most famous band of S.P.A.C.E. Academy-the 'Fab 5' who will express their yaariaan with their rocking song! Give it up for the FABULOUS FIVE!" She leaves while the crowd starts hooting a bit louder this time.

Crowd: "Fab 5! Fab 5! Fab 5!" A couple of seconds later, there is pin-drop silence as the most famous band in Mumbai appears on stage. That is none other than us, the Fab 5. We take our positions, start the beats and begin to sing.

Ho hai zara si meethi-meethi halki si khaari
Yaari yaari, yaari yaari, yaari yaari...
(We look at each other, hold hands and wink at each other)

Ho... yaar woh jo samjhe baat bin bole saari
Yaari yaari, yaari yaari, yaari yaari...
(We go back to our instruments or rather places and start playing)

Wo o o ho.. wo ho.. wo ho...
Zinda yaaron se hui zindagi
Wo o o ho.. wo ho.. wo ho...
Teri-meri, meri-teri yaari-yaari
Hoo... hoo...
(Cabir and I look at each other, wink and pounce over the others, pushing them into our arrangements)

Ho kachchi pakki gullakon to tod-taad kar
Chillaron ko apney saare jod-jaad kar
Tere hisse ki main smile ko khareed lun
Meri smile ka kahin na kahin se tu jugaad kar
Chai wale adde ki bhi chai se hai pyaari
You know...
Yaari yaari, yaari yaari, yaari yaari...
Wo.. jiski chal rahi hai abhi tak udhaari
Yaari yaari, yaari yaari, yaari yaari...
(Cabir and I set up a thermocol tub behind the instruments which seemed to be hidden but it visible. We push them in and throw thermocol on each other)
