In the evening ,

At 5 pm Nandini , Mishbir , Kaira everyone reached there in the Mishti's room as they have to do preparations for night.

"So plan is done ....Naira and Mishti u both will arrange the snacks and other refreshments for party .... Abir u will see the  seating arrangements for us on terrace....And Karthik u nd me we will be doing most imp and usual work of us ...So everything is done no arguments and we all have to be careful ...okay guys" Nandini decided her plan with them and they all agreed to her .

"Guys where is Manik?...He is also coming na?" suddenly Karthik asked. And everyone looked at Abir.

"Don't worry he will be there....He must be sleeping now "Abir told and everyone nodded. Then they moved towards their work . After completing everything needed for party they went to have their dinner at 9 pm.

Manik was also present at the dinner so Abir once again told him about party and he agreed. The dinner went gud with some murmurs and chit chats. Then everyone moved towards there respective rooms as they were supposed to meet at 11.30 for party.

At 11.30 in Nandini's room,

Everyone gathered there to wake her up but she was in deep sleep. As it's her habit to sleep early night and it will get very hard for her to control her sleep in night but she loves night parties and that's why she slept for two times in a day that she can be awake at night but now she is in deep sleep.

Everyone except Manik tried to wake her up but she just responded them with her subconscious mind in her sleepy voice "umm . ...na...nahi...I am not...u go.." .

"Yaar what to do now ...How to wake her up ?" asked Abir .

"Don't know....But we have to wake her up....We can't leave her otherwise she will kill us in the morning...as she loves night parties.." Mishti said being worried about Nandini as she knows how Nandini will react. But suddenly an idea came into Manik's mind.

"Don't worry I know....How " Manik said with a smirk and moved towards her . He kneeled down and he leaned forward near to her face .

"What are you doing?" All of them asked with a concern to  Manik as they saw him moving close to Nandu.

"Wake up sleeping beauty or else I will bite ur lips and will kissed them hard " he whispered near her ear in his husky voice and he also made a small voice of kissing by pouting his lips and that was it , Nandini woke up with a jerk and said "Nooo"

Everyone was confused as they don't know what happened "what no ? Nandu... And Manik what u did that she woke up instantly" Mishti asked teasingly.

"It's nothing...He just said that party will get cancelled if I won't wake up...But guys leave this.... Don't we guys are getting late ... let's go" Nandu said changing topic and while Manik smirked at her .

"So Nandu ur ready... it's time for our work ...shall we start? " Karthik asked excitedly

"Of course dude... let's get going" Nandu also said with chirpy tone.  But Manik was confused as what work they are talking about.

"what work guys...And why u both are so excited?" Asked confused Manik.

"Manik we are not able to celebrate our bachelor's party due to rituals...As we cannot go out of the house after haldi...So we are trying to celebrate it in house only with bachelors" Abir said.

"And we are doing it secretly " Mishti added.

"But still it's a party and without alcohol it's meaningless....So Karthik and Nandu are going to stole some beer bottles for our party" Naira further explained.

"But guys be careful...And only bring beer bottles from bar counter....As it will be safe for us that it won't affect us to much like whiskey and vodka....So we will be normal in shadi ...And besides that I heard Papa some time back , he was ordering to  servent to keep check on stock which is brought for marriage" Mishti informed them

"And dare u both start drinking over there only, without us....u better be on terrace in just 20 mins ... okay" Naira said authoritatively and they both nodded. And Manik stood there surprised as they planned so much with risk of being caught .

"Now u know Manik...so let's go to the terrace" Abir said and they moved towards terrace except Nandu nd Karthik they both went near the bar counter in the mansion.

In Neyonika's room,

"Hey...Neyo are u there " Sachin asked as he reached there in front of her room. He was little tensed.

"Yes Dada(bhai) I am here only....U tell me why are you here?....I mean at this hour of night...Is there any problem?" Neyonika asked being worried. Sachin moved towards her.

"Yes....I want to inform u something" Sachin said with little nervousness. By understanding his state of mind Neyonika held his hands in her and gestured him to continue.

" Neyo he just called me now ....And he told me that he is coming for Abir's shadi...He will be there at venue" Sachin told Neyonika about their conversation and Neyonika just smiled at him sadly.

"It's okay Dada (bhai) .....I will be okay." Neyonika said with straight face .

"U r sure, that u will be fine?" Sachin again asked caringly. Neyonika nodded at him.

"Yes I am sure" she said and he nodded "waise bhi adat hai iss sabki barso se " she added. sadly in low voice he just hugged her and patted her back.

"I am fine Dada(bhai)... U go now it's late...We have to wake up early" Neyonika said with smile while breaking the hug.

"Okay...But should I inform the same to Manik?" Sachin asked with confusion.

"No.... He will be angry....So I will tell him in the morning....u ho nd rest" Neyonika said suggestively Sachin nodded and leave from there.

After that Neyonika was sad nd was in deep thoughts but slowly she slept while thinking.

On the terrace,

Nandini nd Karthik reached there with one box of ten beer bottles and everyone got settled with their respective partners favourite food items. Manik and Nandini also settled near each other. Arrangement was like Karthik - Naira - Mishti - Abir - Manik - Nandini - karthik it was in oval shape.

"So we are going to play Rummy.... Manik u know na how to play?" Abir asked with slight confusion.

"Yes I know and I am gud at it?.... But why Rummy?" Manik asked.

"Because STD, Dam sheraj , Antakshari those are too common and boring.....So we thought of doing something different.... And there are some rules for Rummy to make it interesting" Naira said.

"And the rules are like....If you will win the game then u can ask one question to all ...And we need to give u a true answer....And if anyone will skip to answer the question then he/she  have to give his/her one bottle to the winner "  Karthik explained to Manik.

"okay sounds cool " Manik said.

"It will be interesting.....so let's start it " Nandu said excitedly . With this each one opened there one bottle as they were confident that at least one bottle they will be having for them till the end of game.

They started playing , eating , drinking simultaneously , and first game won by Karthik  and it's his turn to asked questions to remaining members "So tell me how many girlfriends / boyfriends u had in ur past till now?" he asked.

"Excluding u I had one " Naira said and Karthik smiled at her knowingly.

"I had 2 girlfriends before Mishti" Abir said looking at Mishti where she smiled at him assuringly.

"Well I had no one before him "Mishti pouted and all laughed at her .

"I had one " Manik said sadly looking at the ground.

"I had 3 boyfriends " Nandu said casually but Manik suddenly choked on his drink and looked up at her shockingly and she winked at him . He felt little bad but remembering her flirty side he thought it can be possible ☹️.

They again started playing, drinking and this time Naira won the game and she asked "So at which age u lost ur virginity?.... or r u still virgin?"

"I lost it when I was 19 year old " Karthik said and this time Naira smiled at him knowingly.

"I lost it at 20" Abir said little sadly.

"I lost it when I was 23" Mishti said looking at Abir and they both blushed.

"Ummm....I am still virgin" Nandu said with a sad pout . But her reason of sadness brought smile on Manik's face . He felt something so good ,he don't why he felt like that.

"I was probably 18 " Manik said sadly looking at Nandini he don't know why but suddenly her reaction matters to him and unknowingly he was feeling again guilty for misjudging her when she was pure but he himself not . But her reactions was very casual as if it won't affect her , even it's look like she was expecting more number of girlfriends from him. He sighed mentally.

They again started there game and this time Manik won the game .
"Tell me ur reasons behind ur every break up?" He asked this question to everyone but he wants to hear her answer only because he is really curious about her 3 boyfriends.

"Actually I had 2 gf's before Naira ....And in first case she left me....And second time I left that girl because I wasn't in a love with anyone and it was like I was dragging my relationship...so I broke up" Karthik said very casually.

"He left me saying it was Just attraction for him and even from my side it was attraction only ...But as it was my first so that time I felt bad ....but now I am happy" Naira said side hugging karthik.

"I have no stories" Mishti again pouted

"First one was attraction for me and for  her also ....But in second one I was really attached with her but she left me " Abir said sadly and Mishti squeeze his hand supporting him.

"Is it necessary to mention every break up" This time Nandini pouted and all others laughed at her except Manik as he wants to know.

"Yes it is ... otherwise u will loose ur fav beer bottle to me" Manik played a trick of beer bottle as he got to know about her love towards alcohol while back.

"okay then listen.... When I was in 5th class then I got attracted towards boy nd I said I love you to him and he said yes to me , and on one day in the school ground he came near me and kissed my cheeks and I punched him hard and ran from there crying and after that I never talked with him " Nandini said sheepishly. And everyone laughed at her story

"This habit is still there in u ...haina ?" Manik whispered near her ear and she smiled with a smirk.

"And about second and third boyfriend?" Karthik asked controlling his laughed.

"Second was when I was in 9th standard so one boy came to me and said I love you and he was cute so I said yes to him . Then after somedays he asked me about my previous life then I told him my first experience and after listening that he ran from there saying  it was mistake he got confused with attraction and love"
Nandu told her sad story with a sad face.  But everyone again laughed at her story and asked her to continue.

"Third time we both were in a 12th and we were in relationship from two months so one day he tried to kiss me on my lips and then I repeated the history with him " Nandu told her 'Dukh bhari dastaan' and everyone bursted into laughter . And Manik was the happiest person. But he was shocked too as he knew her flirty nature.

"Manik ....Nandu and Karthik both are harmless flirt...They never crossed their limits.... They do  flirting by  talking only" Naira said as she answered Manik's unasked question. And he smiled at her understandingly.

They again started and now Abir won the game
"Which will be ur fav destination for love making?" Abir asked this intentionally as he wanted to know Mishti's reply so he could take her there.

"Paris" Mishti replied instantly and Abir got successful in his plan.

"Tokyo Japan" Naira said.

"Hawai" Karthik said

"Italy as I love Italian food" Nandu said dreamily.

"A good bedroom with comfortable bed " Manik said casually and everyone looked at him in disbelief.

"What?? .... This would be the basic need  ... So I said that only" again Manik said casually but he was trying to be normal because he honestly don't have any thoughts of love making destination.

"So Nandu only u are remained....so it's ur time....u can asked it directly too...as it will save time and we could get some sleep before marriage starts" Mishti said and others too agreed her.

"The one person who have betrayed you " Nandu asked and everyone's smile got vanished.

"Once my family members betrayed me when I was trying to enter in this industry " Naira said

"My school friend betrayed me for a girl" Karthik said.

"My friend betrayed me on annual function by stealing my performance" Mishti said

"My second girlfriend betrayed me saying she wants break up for her career but she ended up being in relationship with other guy just after 7 days of our break up" Abir was hurt but Mishti gave him support.

"I will skip" by saying this Manik handed her his one beer bottle and shifted in the corner of terrace.

But others were too tired and sleepy so they decided to go downstairs and with there remaining beer , they went out from there but Nandini didn't leave saying that she will drink her extra beer under the sky.

......||

She went near him and placed her hands on his shoulder from behind he didn't turned. She forwarded beer bottle towards him

"Take this ...I know u need it" Nandini said by listening her words he turned

"How do you know?" He asked

"Because u simply skipped , giving me bottle directly ....without argument.....so that means something really bad had happened with u " Nandini stated the fact .

How he can answer her that there is not only one person who have betrayed him but there is a chain of people. How he can show to the world that how hurt he is . Sometimes he thought that his whole life has betrayed him.

"Sometimes it's better to skip answer of first to avoid upcoming questions....By the way why ur sharing ur fav beer bottle with me".Manik asked changing the topic.

"Because I thought u will be needing it more than me...and second thing I can't drink 3 beers before my bestie's marriage" Nandini also tried to make environment light as she knew he don't want to share his pain.

She knows that he can't share his pain with her but she can't leave him alone but surely she can make him feel better by changing the topic. So she did that.

"Ohh...I thought u took ur duty seriously Miss captain America"  he asked playfully.

"Which duty ? Mister" she asked raising her eyebrows.

"Duty to protect me with ur shield...Miss captain America" he said joyfully with saluting action. And she bit her tongue as she remembered her words in the morning. That means he had heard their conversation.

"Okay... if u don't want beer ... give it back to me" she said changing topic and trying to snatch beer bottle from him . He pulled back bottle.

"Noo... don't do this....I want beer " he instantly said and she too agreed.

They both sat there with each other drinking beer with a silence but this silence was comfortable and peaceful for them. They both felt relief beside each other.

After finishing there beers they came downstairs and moved to there respected rooms after bidding bye to each other with a smile. After reaching into room they instantly slept as they were drunk and tired.
