Manik and Cabir told their friends that they were leaving the next day. One direction decided to throw a farewell party for them. Neel was upset hearing the news. He did not want Cabir to leave. It had only been a month that they were dating and Cabir was leaving already.

Cabir and Neel met as Cabir wanted to say his farewell properly and privately.

"Do you really have to leave?" Neel asked Cabir in pained voice.

"I do, my friends and my mother would be waiting but don't worry we will stay in touch. I will fly to meet you here. You could come to India to meet me." Cabir assured Neel.

Neel looked down. He knew that this day would come but the last month with Cabir was the most beautiful month of his life. He did not want it to end. Cabir did not want to leave Neel alone as well but he also had to go back to India. Cabir took Neel's face and kissed him slowly like sealing a promise that he will return for him and that he will miss him. They parted and instantly Neel took Cabir for a tight hug.

Cabir took Neel for a date to make him feel special and light. He took Neel for bowling followed by Indian dinner. They talked less as their presence was enough for each other. They made a thousand promises in the few hours that they spent together. They promised to make it work from a long distance.

Neel trusted Cabir and he knew that he would return for him. He understood the situation Cabir was going through and he was very supportive. Cabir adored Neel's understanding and trust. Wasn't this all Cabir ever wanted? A little love, a little trust and a lot of understanding. Neel came in Cabir's life like the morning sun to brighten up his life. For now he was just going to hide behind the moon for a while but he would come back to brighten everything again. They were perfect together and they were determined to make things work.

The same night One Direction had thrown a farewell party for Manik and Cabir. All their other friends were invited. They had booked cycles for all of them to paint the city red. They cycled across the city, they went to numerous places, eating somewhere, drinking somewhere else, enjoying to the fullest and finally they headed to the party at Zayn's apartment. They were like a bunch of free hungry hounds ready to take over anything that came their way. They spent the night playing games, making promises about staying in touch, some of them got emotional, some of them were drunk, and some of them were dancing.

Manik and Cabir returned at 2 in the morning the next day. They were completely out and Mr Malhotra had to do the honours of throwing them in their rooms.

Manik and Cabir woke up with a heavy head due to the party last night. Cabir exited his room first with his head in his hands. He met Mr Malhotra in the hall.

"Awwwww someone got a hangover?" Mr Malhotra mocked.

"Uncleee" Cabir whined.

"Who told you guys to drink so much? Now bear the consequences" Mr Malhotra said while walking towards the kitchen to get tablets for Cabir to reduce his pain.

"Don't scold me like Mainik does" Cabir cutely tried to get his way.

Manik entered the hall lost in his own world. He sat on the dining table.

"I need something my head Ahhhhhh" Manik placed his head between his folded arms. Cabir took his place across Manik and laid his head the same way.

Mr Malhotra found the situation comical. He looked from Manik to Cabir and then back from Cabir to Manik thinking what to do with theses idiots that he had to take care of. It was their last day in London and these two were out. He took the tablets and almost pushed the tablets down Cabir and Manik's throat. He instructed the chef to prepare anything to get the alcohol out of their system. They had to attend School .It was their last day and Mr Malhotra did not want them to miss it because they were drunk.
