Time for another update! I hope you're liking the story so far, if yes then do comment your favorite part!

This update will show Team Space more of Nandini's dynamic with the Shergill-Oberois! And a certain Shergill, in particular ;)

Without further ado, let's get into it!🍭

Song of the Chapter: Meethi Boliyaan, Kai Po Che

----------------------------//----------------------------

While on their way back to the Oberoi Mansion, everyone had gotten familiar with each other. Raichand had gotten chummy with Cabir and Navya, while Malik had developed fondness for Dhruv and Alya. Samrat and Mukti had also gelled well.

Nandini was happy to see all her friends together, it was the start of something new, she could tell.

Manik, on the other hand, was still too in his jealous zone to try and make conversation with any of the three boys, but he decided he liked Raichand the most out of them.

It was 11:20 when they reached home, to see Nanu sitting on the sofa, his eyes plastered to the home theatre.

The Three Musketeers and Sammy looked at one another, and gulped.

"Na-Nanu, we're home on time right?"

Raichand dared to ask, stuttering, as Team Space observed amusedly.

"Cutting it a bit close, but yes, you're essentially on time. You've missed the toss though, Pakistan won. Of course, that's all they're going to win."

Nanu commented in his perfect British accent, chuckling at his own joke, as T3M and Samrat let out a breath of relief.

They came into the living room, and settled into the couch.

Team Space stood there awkwardly, they didn't know if they should intrude or not.

"Arey Manik, puttar tu cricket nahi dekhta?"

Nanu suddenly asked with an offended expression, noticing him.

Nandini facepalmed, why did Nanu have to be so buddy-buddy with him?

"Nanu I love cricket! Who told you so?"

Manik replied defensively.

"Arey toh khoteya wahan khade kyun ho, aao na saare!"

Nanu exclaimed, making Team Space smile as they all rushed to the living area, settling on the couches themselves.

-----------------------------//---------------------------

Dhruv, Alya, Mukti and Navya were sitting on one couch, Cabir and Manik on another, while Samrat, Nandini and Malik were sitting on the couch nearest to the television, Raichand on the floor.

"Um, Rehaan, why are you sitting on the floor?"

Alya asked, confused.

"Because pretty lady, Raichand thoda zyaada hi desi hai aur superstitions mein bahut belief rakhta hai."

Rudra answered, barging into the room and setting himself on the floor, his head on Nandini's lap.

"Ouch! Rudy, tu bahut heavy hai! GET OFF ME!"

Nandini yelped, as Rudra rolled his eyes and shifted to the couch with Cabir and Manik, making everyone laugh.

"But floor pe baithne se superstitions ka kya lena dena?"
