People often says, when love is in the air, it changes everything around it, completely. Either into a beautiful future or a haunted past.

Navya saw Nandini and ran towards her.

"Nans?!" She waved her hand.

"Hey, Navya!" Nandini smiled.

"Uhm, actually I wanted to talk to you about something." Navya spoke thinking how Nandini will feel when she'll get to know the truth.

Nandini looked at her and find something fishy in her eyes.

"Yeah Navya, say!" She asked curiously.

Navya was going to say something but suddenly her mobile phone started ringing and it flashed her mother's number. She picked it up.

"Ji maa?" Navya spoke.

Hearing someone on the other side, irritation shown on her face.

"But maa, I don't want to go. I am busy." Navya replied being frustrated.

"Okay fine, I am coming." She gritted her teeth.

Nandini was registering her every expression and found something wrong.

"Nans, we'll talk tomorrow. For now, I need to rush home." Navya said in hurry.

Nandini put hand on her shoulder, "What happened? Any problem?" She asked worrying a bit.

Navya looked at her and smiled, "No yar. Actually ek new sale lagi hai Infinity mall hai na mere ghar ke pass, bas wahi par. Har brand pe 50% discount hai. So maa wants to shop. You know maa, right." She laughed. "How can she leave such a big opportunity?"

"Okay. You go and enjoy." Nandini chuckled. "Bye. Take care."

Nandini was lying on her bed thinking about project and how she will manage it with Manik.

And on the other side, Manik was drowning in the same pool of worries.

Two people who couldn't stand each other for a second but now they need to support each other for one whole goddamn month.

Sometimes, not all positive changes feel positive in the beginning.

For now, they all might be tensed about their project partners.

But little did they know, this was going to change so much and bring something positive, maybe some new friendships, some new bonds and new dimension to their perceptives and maybe much more.

Chucking all the thoughts, Manik dialled a number and enquired about something.

After few minutes, his phone beeped and he got a message. He opened it and smirked.

On the other side, Nandini's chain of thoughts got crushed when her phone started ringing and hearing it Bruno flinched a bit.

Nandini saw the caller ID. It was an unknown number. She raised one eyebrow and lifted the call.

"Hello?" She spoke.

On the other side, a male voice came.
"Come to Juhu in 15. I'm waiting."

Hearing it, she got shocked.

No hello, no hi. No name.

How idiotic? She thought.

"What? Are you mad?" She was addled
"Who the hell are you? Why would I come there?"

"God!!! Seriously? You didn't recognise my voice?" He frowned.
