Precap: Cabir's date crash. 

Manik and Nandu decided to go to his home as Nandu didn't meet Aryaman the whole day but going to Manik's room, their eyes bulged out.

A few minutes back

Aryaman who has completed preparing his initial draft, which he was supposed to send to his professor, was waiting for Manik as it's been hours he left with Nandu. He was thinking about them when he was disturbed by a knock on his door. He glanced up to see it's Soha which scared him as Nandu has told him a lot about her in the past days. He tried moving out of the room when Soha held his hand and pulled him inside. She closed the door further increasing his worry. He started running and jumping around the room and Soha was behind him. When he saw Manik, he hugged him making him almost fall due to imbalance. Composing himself, Manik asked Aryaman to calm down and asked Nandu to handle, to which she side hugged him while Arya was taking deep breaths. Seeing Aryaman a bit normal, Manik shouted on Soha.

Manik: What the hell is this Soha? What were you doing to him?

Soha: Trust me, Manik. I didn't do anything. Main bas baat karne aayi thi.

(Soha: Trust me, Manik. I didn't do anything. I just came here to talk.)

Manik gave a sarcastic smile before replying,

Manik: Yeah baat. Jaan nikal rahi thi uski, tumhare baat karne ke chakkar mein.

(Manik: Yeah. Your talks are taking the life out of him.)

Soha: Manik, he was overreacting.

Manik: Overreacting? Just a minute.

He pulled out his mobile from his pocket and opened the front cam to show her face in it.

Manik: yeh bhoot bankar ghumogi ghar par, toh yahi haal hoga logon ka.

(Manik: If you are roaming in the house in this 'ghost' look, everyone would be scared)

Soha: Manik, main bhoot bankar nahi ghum rahi hun. This is a face pack.

(Soha: Manik, I am not roaming like a ghost. This is known as a face pack.)

Nandu: Soha, didn't I just tell you that he is allergic to cosmetics?

Soha: I just wanted to talk. I am in deep trouble.

Manik(frustrated): Great. Even we want to talk to you. But before that wash whatever the thing that you have on your face.

Soha leaves making everyone sigh.

Manik(concerned): Aryaman are you ok? I shouldn't have left you alone at home with her.

Nandu(laughing): But that was damn funny.

Both Aryaman and Manik glared her to stop.

Nandu: Get used to this. Yeh ladki aisi hi hai.

Manik sits on the bed with Aryaman beside him while Nandu settles on the couch. They were talking randomly when Mukti barged into his room followed by Abhimanyu.

Mukti(shouts): Manik are you fine?

Manik(surprised): Woah. Shaant ladki. What are you doing here? And yeah, I am absolutely fine.
