(Nandini's POV) For a break, I moved in with Sujatha Chachi and decided to decline Shefs's offer and go somewhere countryside to work. Navya was having the time of her life, while she looked off-colour for the first five months of her pregnancy. Staying at home, after all that insistence by everyone for more than two months now, she was happy to have someone to talk to. Around the beginning of February second week, I started feeling sick. I couldn't eat anything and felt tired and nauseous. One day, having lunch was the test of my limit.

(Navya) "Are you okay, Nandini?" When we were having lunch. It left like I could puke just by looking at the Pineapples.

(Nandini) "I don't know. Eggs make me so nauseous and pineapples scare me. I don't know why. Am I getting allergic to it?" Don't food allergies become known when young? Do they start in when one is twenty seven?

(Navya) "How long have you had this problem?"

(Nandini) "Started around last week. Why do you ask?"

(Navya) "Did you visit a doctor?"

(Nandini) "Navya, I am a doctor. As a doctor, I really don't know why. I am not able to pinpoint any reason to my sickness." I looked away from the table. I just couldn't take it
anymore.

(Navya) "Nandini, I know it is not possible and that you are a sincere person. Please forgive me for asking this, please, but are you pregnant?" I was about to blow off the roof when I looked at her concerned face. She looked very worried. I tried to laugh about,

(Nandini) "What are you talking about" No, she is right. The symptoms are correct. I didn't keep track of my cramps; come to think of it, when was the last time I had it?

(Nandini in disbelief) "Impossible! How? It Is Not Possible!" Impossible!

(Navya)"Nandini, calm down!"

(Nandini) "How Can I Calm Down! I Am Pregnant, Navya. Its Not Possible! I Haven't Slept With Any..... Manik!" The one night that I don't remember was with him. He was the only one. Not possible! Why would he?

(Navya) "What?"

(Nandini) "Annual party night............, I was drunk and I don't know what happened. I woke up in his room.......... changed....... It has to be him, it just has to be..............." I sank down on the chair, shocked. Why? Why would he? Didn't he hate me? Or does he hate me that much? Why? Confusion, doubt, anxiety, everything came together. I couldn't understand why he would? Tears filled my eyes.

(Navya) "Nandini, calm down, are you sure it is Manik?"

(Nandini) "Why wouldn't I be? I may look playful but I am scared of touch! I wouldn't even let anyone stand close to me other than family. There Is No Way I Could Have Slept With Anyone!"

 There Is No Way I Could Have Slept With Anyone!"

(Navya) "I understand. For God sake! Calm down, Nandini! I fully understand your anxiety but Manik isn't"

(Nandini) "Then You Think I Am Lying? I am telling you, the only night where I don't know what I did was when I woke up in his room! Does he hate me that much that he wants me to see how much more miserable I can get; what I would be when I break down!" I could only cry.
