OMG I'm super excited, I've written fiction before, but this is the first time I'm writing fanfiction! I just want to apologize in advance if some of you feel like the characters in my story (cough Nandini cough) are a tad too different from how they are on the actual show. It's just my interpretation of how time has changed them, and how they've evolved.
Also, I'd appreciate it if y'all could vote and comment, it'd make me feel super validated lmao. Sorry for wasting your time, let's get to IT!

Song of the chapter: Safar, Jab Harry Met Sejal
---------------------------//-----------------------------

Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, Mumbai, India

"It's 8 already, flight 9 baje ki hai, where the fuck is he yaar? Ye saala humesha aisa hi karta hai. Dude full Hindi film hero ki tarah entrance maarega kya airport pe? Apni heroine ko America jaane se rokne aayega kya flight ke 10 minute pehle? I swear to god, if he doesn't show up in the next 10 minutes na, main nahi wait karne wala. He can parcel himself to London for all I care. Matlab ghamand ki bhi-"

Cabir Dhawan's breathless monologue was interrupted when the 4 people in front of him suddenly lost their annoyed expressions and instead tried to hold in their laughter. It could only mean one thing, Manik Malhotra was standing right behind him.

"Kabse khada hai idhar?"

He asked, turning around and looking at his devil of a best friend, who had a proud smirk on his face, and vacant eyes.

"Um, 'apni heroine ko America jaane se rokne ke liye flight ke 10 minute pehle aayega kya' se."

"Don't be smart, tujhe suit nahi karta."

Cabir retorted, his face breaking into a smile as he gave Manik a side-hug.

"Hogaya tumhara? Ya ab saagar kinaare, dil ye pukaare gaaoge?"

Mukti quirked, already tired of all the jabs the two idiots took at each other. How had she not gotten used to it even after spending half her life with them.

"Buddy, woh sab chod, why were you late? Was there some emergency? You're okay na?"

Dhruv asked, as always being the concerned cutie of the group, as Mukti and Cabir facepalmed.

"Saale tu jaise Manik se baat karta hai vaise Alya se karta na, toh 2 saal chod, 2 hafton mein patt jaati."

Cabir remarked, nudging Alya in the shoulder.

"Shut up ya Cabir. Ek toh he's being sweet upar se you're making fun of him. I think it's very nice of you, baby."

Alya reassured Dhruv, keeping her head on his shoulders.

Manik shook his head, bored out of his mind with the constant leg pulling and jokes.

"Abhi itna suna raha tha ki late hogaya. Ab nahi chalna kya boarding ke liye? Ab nahi miss hogi flight?"

He taunted, pointing his eyes at Cabir, who finally had a realization of the time.

"Haan haan, chalo, chalo, can't miss the flight guys, I've booked business class, mujhe daaru peeni hai."

He said, making all eyes narrow at him.

"Kabhi nahi sudhroge tum. Ye koi time hai daaru peene ka?"
