PANI-a story we wish were true !

Part 55

(Sorry to inform you all but you'll have to wait a bit more for the diwali sequence as I'm planning to do something special on 11th of March which is our Monster Manik aka Parth Samthaan's birthday. And for that, I will have to delay things by one part. But I hope you enjoy today's part as well even though it's not Diwali sequence.)

Recap: Manan first dance and Nandini drunk scene off screen story.

Parth could not stop thinking about Niti that day. The way she had carried herself in the drunken act and the appreciation she had been receiving from everyone on set, made him feel so proud of her. He was sure the response from the audience would also be tremendous when the episodes would be released. He was so happy for her, he wished to reward her for the brave talent she possessed. He decided to present her with a gift of her choice and also to surprise her with a party.

He called up Ayaz and started planning the party with him. They only had to make sure that people won't know it was Parth's idea to throw the party. Ayaz was to take up the responsibility to inform the others. It was supposed to be a small party with all their co-actors from the show. After discussing with Ayaz about the party, Parth had to think about a gift to present to her which she would love. He thought he knew her very well by now but when he began thinking about the gift, he realized he might not be knowing her enough.

He sat down thinking about her behavior from sets, the type of clothes she would wear, her likes and dislikes he knew so far, but got nothing from it. After a lot of thinking over quite some hours, suddenly something popped up in his head that gave him the idea of just the perfect gift for her.

The party was to be held the next day after shoot at Veebha's place and all the major arrangements were to be made by her as she was Niti's best friend and was probably the only one on set who knew her inside out. Charlie and Krissan had volunteered to help Veebha with the arrangements and the boys had to collect the food on the way and the surprise they had for Niti. Parth had Niti's gift ready but did not know how and when to present it to her. He therefore called up Veebha for some help,

Parth: Hey Veebha ! Listen I need your help.

Veebha: Yeah ? Tell me.

Parth: Actually I have a gift for Niti and I don't know how should I give it to her without being specifically noticed by the others.

Veebha: What gift is it ?

Parth describes her the gift which leaves Veebha awestruck ! She felt so happy for her friend that she had such a person in her life who took care of every smallest thing of her life.

Veebha: You can do one thing, I'll ask Ayaz to pick up Niti a bit later and by that time you can go up to her place and give it to her.

Parth: You sure about that ?

Veebha: Yes of course !

Parth: Okay great then ! Thanks yeah !

Parth rushes to Niti's place carefully handling her gift, hoping she would like it.

Niti didn't have a clue about the party and they had decided that Ayaz would ask her to join them all for a small dinner gathering at the last moment before picking her up from her place. So, when Parth arrived with her gift, she wasn't aware of what had been happening behind the scenes.

She was lying on her bed in her pajamas, playing a few games on her iPad when she heard the door bell. She was feeling too lazy to get up but had to go and open the door. She forced herself out of the bed and moved towards the living room to open the door. She opened the door to find nobody out there but she heard a soft noise below and moved her gaze down to find a beautifully decorated basket with a small adorable pug puppy in it lying at her door step.
