KAISE BATAAOON TUMHE...

Crap!! it's not working.

As the gang walks into the house, being happy and cheerful, they find Manik fuming in anger and walking upstairs to his room. They get worried.

"Ab kya hua?" Asks Aryaman.

"Party me to theek tha." says Navya.

"Nandini se jhagda hua hoga." Abhi says nonchalantly.

"I hope not." Says Alia.

"Guys we should check on them." Suggests Cabeer.

"Yup. Dhruv, Cabeer, Arya.. go to Manik. Baaki we all can check on Nandini." Mukti agrees and they all leave separately.

Manik entered his room banging it behind him and agitated move to the balcony attached to his room.

"why? why do this have to challenge me at every turn." He spoke looking at no one in particular.

"what does she mean I should ask Fab 5 ? As if they would say no ? As if they don't love her as much as I do. And what does she mean - working on her own? I wont control her singing. I am just asking her to join the band. She will have her own identity. She always infuriates me. Frustrates me. And then... does as she want. Fine then, Nandini. Do as you wish. But I promise, you have to join FAB 5 ultimately."

He looks back at the sound of door opening, Cabeer, Aryaman and Dhruv enters, closing the door behind them. They all sat making themselves comfortable, still in their party clothes. Manik goes to the bar in his room and takes out some beer cans and gave one to each of them. He then sat with the others on the bed.

" Kya hua?" Asked Dhruv.

"Kya hoga? Har baar ka vahi drama. I am an independent women, I don't need your help making a career. Fuckin' bullshit. I don't wanna talk about it. I don't think it's working." Manik Answers.

"Manik, its just a fight. you can't decide to end a relationship right after one small fight." Enquires Aryaman .

"It's not just a fight Aryaman, it's what she does every time I want to do something for her. Every fuckin' time. If she asks me to do something, I have to do it, but she would never understand if I ask her to do something, and that too for her own happiness." I

"Manik, bethh, Relax, now tell us actually What happened?" Cabeer Interrupts.

"I asked Nandini to join Fab 5" He says in a low tone.

"Kya?" Everyone pushes.

Manik sighs and then says, "I asked Nandini to join Fab 5". He speaks in a clear tone, and then looks at all of theirs confused faces.

"What?"

"Yes, Manik asked me to join Fab 5." Nandini sobbed.

"par Nandini, Isme bura kya hai?" Navya asked.

"Bura yeh hai Navya ki Manik apni insecurities ke chalte Nandini par apne Dreams nahi thop sakta. That is just not Right." said Abhimanyu.

"What was your answer Nandini?" Mukti asked, rather impatiently.

"Yeah.. you didn't agree right?" Aliya asked mimicking the same tone as Mukti.

"Aliya.. Nandini ne haa kaha ya nahi, isse kya farak padta hai?"

"farak kaise nahi padta Navya, Bohot faraaak padta hai.. hum kisiko bhi Fab 5 me shaamil nahi kar sakte, just because Manik loves her. Doesn't mean she can get access to Fab 5"
