--------------------------------------

Part 53:
As the mehendi and sangeet function got finished all the guests retired to their rooms, fully tired for anything else.

While the girls were still sitting their as their partners feeded them due to their wet mehendi. Cabir and Dhruv were busy with their girlfriends when they saw Manik walking closer towards them with a plate too.

They smiled at him as he took his place next to Nandini.
Manik: So....

Nandini: Thanks Manik... I m literally famished.

Manik smiled at her and picked up a spoon full of food. Nandini opened up her mouth in a child like way making him wanna kiss her for her cuteness, when he suddenly forwarded the spoon towards Mukti.

Manik: Well I hv two beautiful ladies out here by my side... That makes me lucky!!

Mukti smiled at him while the others laughed, Manik turned towards Nandini with the spoon again to find her smiling at her with shear proud in her eyes. Soon Cabir and Dhruv too made mukti hv one one bite each after which Manik again continued.

Soon they finished with the dinner when Mukti said,
Mukti: Guys... Lets do something tonight!! Tmrw we hv the engagement n Cocktail party we won't get time after that.... Aur phir day after tmrw, these love birds will get married. Lets just spend tym together... Just all of us, like old times....

As she finished Manik took her in a side hug,
Manik: Yeah... Lets think of it as a small bachelors party!! After all we r fab5, we will celebrate their bachelors together...

Aliya: Yes.....

Cabir: Ohk then!! The guests hv already retired... Lets all just loosen up, I m sure u girls might want to change, we'll meet after that....

Mukti: Yeah... I just can't wait to get rid of this heavy dress!!!

Nandini: Done... Then u all go get changed, I'll get some arrangements done on the terrace for all of u!! The lake seems amazing in the night, u'll enjoy it out there......

Mukti: Yeah I m sure we will!! But Nandu, when I said 'we', I meant the Seven of us..... U too r a part of us now, remember it, I don't want to remind it to u again and again.

Nandini nodded at her simply and then walked away to make the arrangements and to change.

Soon they all freshened up and moved up to the terrace to see an amazing cosy set up ready for them, as a few guys from the team were busy over there.

Aliya: Wow... Well done guys!! Thanks...
" Ur welcome Ma'am..." they replied professionally and turned to leave.

Cabir: Hey do u guys know where is Nandini??
" Sir, she was here with us 5 mins back and has gone to freshen up, she might join u all soon...."

Manik: Hmn... U may go!!

Soon they all were left alone as they sat down on the mattresses arranged in the round.

A few minutes later, Nandini walked upstairs to see everyone sitting quietly lost in themselves. Cabir was lying down with his head on Navya's lap, Aliya had her head on Dhruv's shoulder while her hands were still clan with mehendi like all the other girls, Mukti who had her head on Aliya's lap and Manik was just sitting there admiring all of them.
