She was looking at him, lost in him. Manik felt a gaze on him and turned around to see who is there... And he was shocked. Well! It was truth that he never saw her in any western dress and today seeing her, he was hell shocked.

They both had an eye contact and was broken by Nandini.

Manik: shall we go?

Nandini: yes, sure

They both soon reached there and when they did, only 5 people were there: Mukti, Alya, Dhruv, Cabir and Navya. Manik knew all of them, Mukti, Alya, Dhruv, Cabir were his best friends and they had studied together till the college and Navya was the fiance of Cabir. Dhruv and Alya were in relationship while Mukti was married to Abhimanyu.
Manik introduced everyone to eachother and they were soon talking.

Nandini: mr. Malhotra, you said that this is an office party then where are others?

Mukti: Nandini, we actually made this excuse to meet you even Manik doesn't know

Nandini: if you would have said me like that then also I would meet you guys, there is no need for excuses

Navya: all that is fine, but lets go to shopping, my cocktail party is there tomorrow

Nandini: you guys go, I will go home

Alya: what yaar! Don't be a spoilt sport, we will all go.

All of them went and bought dresses for themselves and went to their homes.
Soon, it was night and Manik heard some sniffing sound. Nandini's room was next to Manik's room. So, he went there. He knocked but got no reply, so, he opened the door and saw Nandini crying...
