Three months later
"Is this recording?" Nandini asked fiddling with the camera.
"The red dot Nandini look for it!" Dhruv said from across her.
"Yeah it is" She gave him cheeky smile.
"So wedding next month are you nervous?" Nandini bumped her shoulders with Alya who stood besides her checking the decors and food table.
"No just really busy no time for pre wedding jitters." She chuckled and put a pink macaroon in her mouth.
"Weren't you going to record or something?" Dhruv reminded nandini and kissed Alya's cheek from behind.
"Oops" Nandini looked at her camera which recorded their whole conversation. She looked around her to see whom she should go first.
She spotted manik in a salmon tshirt and faded blue jeans. She tip toed from behind and almost scared him when his voice stopped her.
"I know it's you sugarplum." He said in a bored tone and turned around his hands in his pockets.
"How do you always know?" She whined stomping her foot.
"Maybe because I know how you smell." He took a step forward and leaned in close to her ear. "Really well! We've been up close and personal. That well." He whispered and she shivered, closed her eyes for a second but then pushed him away.
"Or maybe you've really good dog skills" She challenged and he smiled his tongue in his jaw.
"So manik do you think it's a girl or a boy?" She finally remembered why she came to him.
"Didn't my tshirt just answered for me?"
It's Navya and Cabir's gender reveal party hosted by Nandini and Manik in their rented house in New York.
Gender reveal is banned in India so they decided to get an ultrasound in New York because Nandini had a month of internship here so why not just throw a party.
They all decided to make this experience extra special for them and so they all flew in.
Everyone really bonded with the both of them at Mukti and Abhi's wedding so here they are.
They were all gathered in the open backyard where all the decor was done by the entire gang.
"You should take that hideous thing off!" Cabir suggested looking at the royal blue plastic ring which was a little uplifted in the middle on manik's left pinky.
"Heyyyyy that's his engagement ring you're talking about!" Nandini flicked Cabir's head and locked her arm with manik.
"But that is ugly " Cabir made a point.
"It's not my fault that I happened to eat crax at the airport and got a ring toy---"
"And made me her fiance from her best friend." He pulled her in his arms and kissed her head. "Plus its unique "
"Yes Nandini we were there only sharing that crax ka packet." Cabir rolled his eyes and she hit his arm again.
"We never thought we would get to see this day." Dhruv wipes a fake tear.
Nandini rolled her eyes and searched for Navya.
"Where's your wife?" She asked.
"Oh she's getting ready will be here any minute." Cabir mentioned and on the cue she came out of the sliding glass doors to the backyard.
She's dressed in a white net dress below her knee with flowy sleeves. She held her baby bump which is very much visible now.
"Hey wifey you alright there?" Cabir asked kissing the back of her hand .
