6. Kisses And Misses

~• PRESENT •~

M A N I K

All of us sat in my room. I had to go to office and we all had other works, but we all left everything we had and met because of Cabir's apparent message that said it was an emergency.

I and Cabir had grown apart since a year and even though I had a very important meeting, I couldn't miss it but it was Cabir and I am glad he wanted to talk to us.

We all looked at Cabir to talk ahead and he showed us his hand as if he was thinking something.

Mukti rolled her eyes as she lay her head in my lap. Cabir sat across both of us on the bed and Dhruv sat down on the bean bag. Aliya sat on the floor, leaning into Dhruv's lap as he held her.

Whenever I see Dhruv and Aliya together, happily, always kissing each other, they way he holds her, the way they help each other out, it always reminds me of Nan-.

My thoughts were interrupted by Cabir.

"So guys!", He said pulling attention towards himself. "A lot has happened over this one year." He said.

I closed my eyes. He hadn't called us again to mock at me for what happened one year back because if it was so, no one- no one will be able to stop my anger today.

"We have all moved quite distant. Aisi bohot saari cheezein hai that you all don't know anymore..", he said calmly and Mukti's eyes met mine. She held the same expression as me. For her, Fab5 was her only family just like mine. And the way Cabir has drifted apart from all of us, it hurt her the same way just like me.

"Cabir hum sab toh vahin the, You stopped talking to us!" Aliya said slowly with tears filling her eyes. Dhruv slowly back hugged her from behind and kissed her temple. It caused a piercing pain in my heart and I looked away from them.

"I don't think we should fight again about what happened one year back. Should we? The damage is done and my Nandini has left us!" He said, his eyes spitting fire.

Mukti closed her eyes tightly and I looked away, outside the balcony, away from their gazes.

"All I wanted to tell you all is that I am getting married." Cabir said with a sigh.

"Tune iske liye humein yaha bulaya!" Mukti said with an unbelievable look.

"Yeh baat toh phone pe bhi ho sakti thi na..." Dhruv said with a bored expression.

"I agree, everyone gets married every day-....", Aliya stopped in the middle.

We all stopped our bickering and re registered his words.

All I wanted to tell you all is that I am getting married.

I am getting married.

Cabir is getting married?!

"WHAT?", we all shouted together and he nodded.

"Aur tu humko ab bata raha hai saale!" Mukti shouted as she kicked him and he fell of the bed.

"We don't even know the girl, oh my god, Cabir is getting married!" Dhruv shrieked and threw a pillow at him which he caught.

"Exactly Cabir. Tum humko ab kaise bata sakte ho? We have to shop so much!" Aliya said and we all snapped our faces at her, rolling our eyes.

Everything, and all she could think of was what to shop. Great!

All eyes stopped at me since I was the only one who hadn't said anything since Cabir announced this news.
