M: You're coming today aur mein apni khushi chupa bhi nahi sakta. Chill Manik Malhotra relax woh bas aa hi toh rahi hai chill relax breath in breath out it will be cool.

Manik moves down and see all his friends are already in the breakfast table

M: Arey aaj sab subha subha uth gaye kya baat hai

C: Hum hamesha subha subha hi uthte hai

Hearing "Hamesha" Manik just smiles

C: Tujhe mujhse pyar ho gaya hai kya?

M: What?

C: Toh aise battisi kyu dikha raha hai mujhe

Manik just grab an apple: Guys ek important meeting hai mein chalta hu

Mu: Manik breakfast toh karke jaa

M: Office mein kar lunga

Manik left

Mu: I check usne sari meeting morning mein shift kar li hai

A: Nandini is coming today

D: You think buddy will go to receive her

Mu: I am just scared. What if it's not what Manik is expecting?

Nav: Tum sab ko kaise pata chala Nandini aaj aa rahi hai

Mu: We are Fab5, nothing is impossible for us.

A: Shut up Mukti! Navya we saw Aryaman's story he is coming back because he is done with his studies so agar woh aa raha hai toh Nandini bhi aa hi rahi hogi

D: Manik ka calender 1pm ke baad open hai it means buddy is planning to receive her from the airport

At the airport

Manik is looking at his watch every 5 minutes

Manik thinks: God aaj time itna slow kyu jaa raha hai. Abhi tak toh uski flight land ho chuki hogi. Abhi baggage claim and immigration mein time lagega. Usually it takes an hour to two depending on how busy they are. So, she should be out by 3 the latest, I assume.

Manik itna wait kar liya aab kuch aur ghante toh wait kar hi sakta hai.

After 3 hours

4 baj gaye abhi tak nahi aai.

"Tum jiska wait kar rahe ho woh nahi aai"

Manik turns to look at the owner of the voice

M: Aryaman!

Ar: You can call me Dr. Aryaman!

Manik chuckle: Congrats!

Ar: Thanks! Tum jiska wait kar rahe ho woh nahi aai and you should move on man. It's been forever

Suddenly a girls comes running and hop on Manik

"I miss you I miss you I miss you so so much"

M smiles and hugs her tight: I miss you too Jaan....

J: Mein toh apko surprise dene wali thi apko kaise pata chala mein aaj aa rahi hu

M: Tera bada bhai hu meri aakho se kuch nahi chupta

Jaan pout

M: Chal ghar chalte hai sab wait kar rahe hai. Bye Dr. Aryaman

Manik and Jaan leaves

A: Yeh sach mein Nandini ko bhool gaya. Maybe there is still chance for me

Malhotra mansion

Mu: 5 baj gaye Manik abhi tak nahi aaya

C: Call bhi nahi utha raha hai

D: I hope he is fine

A: Mein phir try karti hu

"Hello lovely people! I am back"

Mu: Jaan tu ??

J: Haa mein

C: Tu toh kal aane wali thi

J: Thank you so much for the warm welcome apne hi ghar par jaldi bhi nahi aa sakti mein

Suddenly all of them pounced on her

J: I miss you all

All: We miss you too

"Lo mujhe sara suitcase dekar akele akele family hugs kar rahe ho" said complaining Manik from the back

J: Aww... bhai you know you can join too right

C: Usse chod Jaan usko toh hamesha hug karte hai aaj only us

M: Sale

Manik laugh and join them for the hug

After setting themselves on the couch

Manik side hug Jaan and Jaan is resting her head on his shoulder

Mu: Toh tu Jaan ko lene gaya tha?

M: Jaan mujhe surprise karna chahati thi par meine hi usse surprise kar diya

A: Manik hamein kyu nahi bataya hum bhi aate nah

M: Mujhe pata tha Jaan ke aate hi tum sab toot padoge iss liye mein akele hi pick up karne chala gaya aur waise bhi kisi ko toh office sambhalna padega nah. Jaan you go freshen up mein kuch ready karta hu

J: Bhai apke hatho ka avocado toast

C: Mere liye bhi

M smiles: Druv tujhe kuch nhai chahiye

D: No, buddy I am not hungry

M: Chup kar! You two chalo mere sath kitchen mein and let the ladies rest for the evening

Druv and Cabir makes a face but follow Manik to the kitchen

Living room

A: Manik seems very cool about it. Maybe he is not aware of Aryaman's arrival

Mu: I'm not sure yaar kuch samajh nahi aa raha. Navya what you think?

Nav: I think we should let them be. If they are meant to be they will be

Mu: Nope! I think we should set him up with someone

Nav screams: No.....

Mu: Chilla kyu rahi hai

A: Mukti remember the last time you tried setting him up with someone what happened so let them be

Nav: Yeah, waise we should talk about Alia's dating life. Kya chal raha hai?

Mu: This new guy is some hot shot hah

A: He is!

Mu: Toh problem kya hai.

A: Woh feeling nahi hai yaar

Nav: Do you still have feelings for Druv?

A: I don't know I am so confused

Mu: Alia we never asked why you guys broke up but if there is a hope even if it's a little bit don't give up. Mera dekh Abhi left without even telling me kyu? Mujhe pata bhi nahi hai meri galti kya hai. At least druv tera pass toh hai; jake ek jhapad maar aur puch kyu .... I can't even do that!

A: Why is first love so hard to get!

Mu: Iss liye toh mein Manik ko move on hone k liye khe rahi hu. Woh Nandini ke alawa kisi aur ke bare mein sochta bhi nahi hai agar usse Nandini nahi mili toh I don't know woh kaise jee payega

"Ladies snack ready"

The guys come with toast and coffee

Nav: Manik tum nah Cabir ko aise hi training dete raha karo.

C: Oh hello! Aaj Jaan aai hai iss liye meine help ki roj roj expect matt karna

D: Cabir jo pyar dil mein hai use kabhi kabhi express bhi karna padta hai

Alia looked at Druv

Nav: Kabhi kabhi kyu roj express karna padta hai

C: aacha toh issi baat pe do pappi

Nav: Cheee Cabir.....

C: Kya chee ... you only said roj express karna padta hai. You're right aab tum mujhe roj pappi dena

J: Bhai bring the pink suitcase uss aap sab ke liye present hai

Jaanat's room

M: Yeh itna sara saman lane ki kya jarurat hai sab liye. These girls

Suddenly Jaan's phone beep

M: Lo phone bhi room mein hi chod kar chali gai

Manik picks her phone and froze looking at her home screen
