On the day of Graduation Ceremony,
Nandini, Manik, Abhimanyu, Mukti, Alia, Dhruv and Navya were all busy taking pics after Manik, Abhimanyu, Mukti, Alia and Dhruv received their degrees. Navya was missing Kabir but Nandini was trying her best to stick with Navya even though she was also turning sad as Manik have to leave college now.
Soha was eavesdropping when Manik received a call from Raj. Soha got more attentive.
Manik - Hello! Dad. So, are you coming?
Raj - Of course, my son.
Manik - when?
Raj - I am just at entrance man!
Manik - (looked at entrance) Entrance! Okay, coming.
Raj - Okay.
Manik was about to go when Nandini asked if she can come, but Manik asked her to stay there. Manik went to the entrance, noticed Raj and went up to him.
Manik - Dad!
Raj - Congratulations Son, come (spread arms and hugged Manik) Let's go. I need to congratulate your mates too, and comfort Nandini since you will leave.
Manik - Dad, don't mention this again and again in front of Nandini. She is almost about to cry, just controlling herself.
Raj - You little brat. I know very well what to say and do. Don't worry. Let's go.
They turned to go to others. Midway, Manik got a business call, he asked Raj to go there (while pointing at Nandini and others). Manik went away to answer while Raj went on. While on his way, Raj was approached by Soha.
Soha - (with smile) Hello, Uncle. (Raj was flustered) Abb, I mean Dr. Raj. I am Soha. I got to know you are Manik's father. You are really great and so is your son. I really look up to him as my idol. He is really hardworking. I am in same department as him.
Raj - Thank you for telling, but I know. (with smile)
Soha - (flustered smile) He is also..... liked by many.
Raj - Oh.. It's good to like someone but it's more important to respect that person and respect his choices, thoughts and happiness. I hope you get it.

Soha - (flustered) Huh?
Raj - (broad smile) I will take my leave now.
Raj left while Soha just kept looking at him.
Raj reached Nandini. Nandini was too happy to see him and hugged him directly. Soha was shocked then saddened and left.
Nandini - Congratulations! Your son has grown up. (they all burst in laughter)
All - Congratulations Uncle!
Raj - Thank you. And congratulations to you too.
Nandini - Wait! Manik went to bring you but how come you are alone?
Manik - (from behind) I am here. (came forward) I got a call, so I asked dad to go first. (to Raj) Where's Manish uncle?
Raj - He wanted to come but Nandini....
All srared Nandini...
Nandini - Let me call him.
Nandini called Manish.
Nandini - Dad, why aren't you here?
Manish - (firmly) Because you don't allow me!
Nandini - huh? You really need my allowance?... (sighs) But it was Manik's graduation ceremony. You should be here atleast today!
Manish - You are the one to be blamed!
Nandini - (cutely) Okay. okay. okay. It's my fault. Can't you come now?
Manish - (sighs) Turn around!
Nandini flustered and turned around. She was shocked to see Manish, ran to him and hugged tightly. While others kept smiling. For a surprise, Randeep was also there. Navya hugged him, Nandini and others greeted him.
Manish gave jeep keys to Nandini and told him that he will come more often now. They all were happy and enjoyed.
Nandini, Navya and Kabir's last second session started from Monday. Kabir took off on Monday as he returned by Sunday night.
In college, everyone was discussing about Nandini as she was accused of being gold digger but turned out to be Manish's only successor.
Nandini and Navya were at cafeteria when Soha approached Nandini.
Soha - Hello Nandini. Can we..... please have a private chat?
Navya - (whispering) My goodness! Be careful. She has definitely hit her head somewhere and had gone mad!

Nandini - (whispers back) huh? How! I mean Why has she gone mad?
Navya - Because she is not behaving normally.
Nandini - Shut up! (turned to Soha) Sure. Come.
Nandini and Soha went to the near garden and sat down.
Nandini - Say!
Soha - I am sorry, Nandini. I..I. .shouldn't have done that all. I only cared about my happiness and never cared for Manik and others. After thinking for a day, I realised I actually never liked Manik, I just wanted him because others wanted him. I am always like this....., trying to get what all want and show off. But....... I will try to change. (took deep breath and smiles) Today is my last day here! I will go to US for further studies. So...., Can we be friends?
Nandini -Sure! Why not? (they hugged) It's great, that you finally realised it. Wish you to be happy from now on.
Soha - Thank you. But Nandini, I am envious of you. You got a boyfriend who loves you, cares for you and protects you, no matter what. He supports you and trusts you blindly.
Nandini - (smiles) I hope you can find one too. By the way, since we are friends now..., I will tell you a secret by trusting you. Promise me, you will keep it a secret too. Because you will be my first friend to know about it.
Soha - (smiles) Really? Okay. I promise.
Nandini - (whispered in her ear) Manik is not my boyfriend, he is... my... Fiancé!
Soha - (shocked) Huh?
Nandini - Ssshhh.
They both laughed, exchanged numbers, gave best wishes to each other.
Soha took her leave and Nandini went back to Navya, who was coming out.
Navya - So, what happened?
Nandini - Nothing. She was saying sorry and how she is envious of me.
Navya - (flustered) Excuse me? What? For real? She was actually apologising? Unbelievable!
Nandini - Enough! Enough! Let's go!
Manik - (in a meeting with staff) I am glad to announce that our hard work will pay off soon. We just need one more week and yes! except the department heads everyone can have 3 days off. As for the heads, you can have off after this week, once we are all done. You all have worked.... really hard. Thank you.
The staff - Yayy!!!! Long live our boss!
Manik went to call Nandini.
Nandini - Hello? So, you finally.. got time to call me.
Manik - I have a good news for you!
Nandini - (excited) Have you completed the game development?
Manik - No. But good news is related to it! We will be done in a week!
Nandini - Woah! Congratulations.
Manik - Thank you.
Nandini - So, where's the party, Mr Malhotra?
Manik - I am... doing some ov.......
Nandini - No, I am quite busy. Let's have a supper once you are done!
Manik - (smiled) Alright. (in his mind- Lucky to have you who can understand what i am going to speak)
Nandini - By the way, which company are you targeting as distribution investor?
Manik - Pace!
Nandini - Are they interested in mobile game now? They were never before.
Manik - They seem to be quite interested now. They have their eyes on all companies developing mobile games but they will sign with one only! They are looking at ours a lot since the last presentation. They seem interested that's why they are my first target.
Nandini - Oh! All the best! Bye.
Manik - Bye!
Around 10 pm,
Nandini went to sleep after doing work.
Manik went home for a sleep. Manik woke up at around 4 am, freshened up and went to his office to work again.
Manik was SHOCKED when he turned his computer on!

Why The Hell Not
Sweat started to form all around my body as the pain consumed me. It was 9pm and this had to be the worst wave of heat I've ever experienced! My body ached as the flames traveled from my core, spreading to the rest of my body. I hate heat, every type of heat, but mainly this one. Heat, in my pack, is a bitch! The second you turn 16 your heat starts. Then for the rest of your life you get a heat cycle once a month, as if having a period isn't bad enough. The heat happens right after your period, leaving you 2 weeks of peace as a woman if you find your mate your 16 years of life! If you did not find your mate at 16, when you turn 17 it will be every 2 weeks! Your period is still once a month, thankfully, but the heat cycle directly after your period is the strongest! Leaving you ONE week of peace...unless of course you don't find your mate by the time you turn 17. If you are unlucky enough to not have found your mate by the time you are 18, then yes it will be EVERY week! Leaving you NO peace!!Basically the longer you go without finding your mate, the more heat you will go through. If you're 20+ then it could be EVERY hour! Once you find your mate it goes back down to once a month, thankfully. Lucky, or lucky for me, I'm 17...meaning I've gotta deal with this every 2 weeks. This one in particular is the worst one yet! I grabbed the water on the side of my bed and tried to fix my dry throat.......
