It'd been 5 years since that ill-fated day. Valentine's Day. Manik Malhotra, who'd reverted back to his Monster ways for the world, still had a place in his heart for his Star, his Nandini, who now had a whole new world herself.

And then they became Mr. and Mrs. Shergill Oberoi! And oh my god, the amount of comments and messages I got about Ayan, you guys, I'm so incredibly happy y'all are as invested in him and this story as I am!
Also, I really really hope and pray that everyone is safe and happy wherever they are, with the way things are right now. My love to everyone and their families❤️

The wedding hangover was one that lasted a few hours, with all the youngsters drunkenly dancing to Bollywood songs.
Especially Cabir, Rudra and Raichand, who'd really gotten into spirit and yelled along to the lyrics of Jumma Chumma, with Abhi, Manik, Samrat, Dhruv and Malik laughing their asses off at them.
Nandini and Mira were simply too happy to care, dancing arm in arm, along with Navya, Mukti, Alya and Ahana.
The next morning, nobody wanted to wake up. Not even Nandini '4am means 4am' Murthy.
"Wake UP Murthy! We have a day to rehearse for the damn musical or your brother will eat us alive!"
Malik yelled at Nandini, who was still under the covers, deliberately covering her ears to tune him out.
"It's his honeymoon phase, Malik, he doesn't care! Let me sleep yaar, kal tune pilaayi thi na, ab sone de."
She murmured in a whining voice, as Malik chuckled and shook his head.
"Come ON Murthy, even Raichand is up, chal yaar, don't you want ki kal musical perfect ho?"
Malik yelled, not wanting to falter on St. T's and Shivaay's expectations.
"Oh for god's sake Nandini uth jao yaar, he'll keep yelling and yelling is NOT the cure for a hangover."
Manik's voice said from under the covers, startling Malik, who now smirked watching as Nandini blushed red, reluctantly getting up from the bed.
Scowling at Malik, she quickly turned around and threw a pillow at Manik's sleepy figure, whose hearty chuckle could be heard.
"You're getting up too, Malhotra."
She mumbled as she made the bed, while Malik shook his head lightly and left the room, asking her to come down for breakfast quickly.
"And why would I leave the bed and my precious sleep at....eugh...8 in the morning?"
Manik complained checking the time, still sleepily.
"Oh, okay then. Guess I'll have Sammy drive me, he's been saying he wants to spend some alone time anyway."
Nandini said matter-of-factly, before turning away to leave the room.
"1..2..3..-"
She counted in whispers, and as soon as she reached three, she heard a sudden movement behind her, followed by Manik angrily swearing and rushing to the washroom to freshen up.
