This scene is after jiah comes in Abhi's life.I m assuming that only Atul knows that Abhi is married.Now all other Nikki's friend are back in Sanjeevani but she doesn't want to tell them all about what happened to her last six months.After long time all friends are together so she doesn't want them to upset on anything.Its time for celebrattion in Sanjeevani as there is reunion of old friends.
but it was her eyes which were hiding her pain.
" I m seeing you happy after such a long time"Atul said observing her excitement. Nikki turned toward him and became sad again.
"Nikki have you ever thought how all of them will react when they know the truth about you and Abhi" Atul asked tensed. "We are hiding this from the last six months, now I can't hide this anymore "Atul stated clearly.
"Atul please this is not the right time" Nikki said with moist eyes, requesting Atul with her eyes.
"Nikki u r saying this from the last six months'." started Atul agitatedly.
Nikki interrupted "Atul what will we get if we tell them the truth?, nothing is going to change in my life. The truth will only upset them and I don't want that. So please promise me that you are not going to tell them anything. We are all so happy to be united again, I don't want to
spoil that mood.Please!" Nikki tried to convince Atul to keep mum in this matter.
"As you wish" Atul finally agreed .
"Now common Help me. we have to do lots of preparation for the party" Nikki Dragged Atul by his hand.
------------------------------------
"All set Atul"Nikki asked. Atul rolled his eyes all over the place and said "Yes.....Umm...am I looking fine ? ,Nikki ,Please tell me if I should change" Atul asked with a worried look on his face. "Yeah you are looking good but why are you so nevervous ? "Nikki enquired."Nikki have you forgotten Anjali is also coming,I have to look good na,might be she had change her mind in these six months about me. So I have to be ready"Atul said inone breath. An amused smile curved Nikki's face"humm don't worry, You are looking dashing and Anjali is going to be bowled over you. "Nikki assured him.
Muskaan and Anjali entered the party and hugged Nikki who responded to their hug with the same warmth. Atul come ad hugged Muskaan and watched Anjali without distracting and Shyly said "How r u Anjali?" Anjali come forward n hugged Atul and said "I m fine Atul n u"and stepped back. Atul was suprised with Anjali's action n told her "How can I be without u" with moist eyes.
Ridhimma came in her eyes searching for someone, she was caught by Nikki "Look at us also Ridzy we r also here".Nikki n ridhimma hugged each other for a long when Atul interrupted them n hugged Ridz. Muskaan said "Uffo Let me also hug her"by dragging Atul away and moved to hug her.(Anjali was there with Ridz during her treatment abroad.)Nikki asked Ridz "How r u??" Ridz replied "I am fine ,n u two ?" staring at Nikki n Atul. Atul answered "We r fine now just by seeing u all here".Ridz smiled.
Armaan n Rahul entered the party n their eyes settled on their respective gals as they were seeing them after a long time. Ridz n muskaan caught them staring at them,Ridz kept staring at Armaan with a smile n moist eyes where as Muskaan turned her face to avoid Rahul and announced to the others that Armaan had come .Ridz n Armaan came forward to share their feeling of what all they had gone through in the past six months.They hugged each other n whole gang watched them with a grin on their face.
The rest of the gang came forward to hug both of them. Whole gang shouted with full force of their lungs "Yay!!!".
Armman hugged Nikki and asked her "How r u??".Nikki got emotional and choke in her answer. Atul came forward to answer on her behalf "She is fine, just got emotional by seeing u".Nikki brought a fake smile on her face whereas her eyes still glisteed with tears.
Armaan watched her n hug her again n told her "I thought u have forgeten me in these six months by having sadu boyfriend on your side" Armaan said trying to hide his laughter but this sentence took Nikk's fake smile also. She watched Armaan with sadness n Armaan watched her n said " don't glare at me like this Sorry to call ur bf 'sadu'."Nikki lower her eye n tried to give them a smile.
"U r very possessive about him ? huh ? .Hummm guyz beware as Dr. Modi is not here, Nikki is going to scold us on his behalf." Armaan said n all burst into laughter except Nikki n Atul who just plastered fake smile on their faces.They both stared at each other, Nikki hid her tears n left from there with the excuse of checking some arrangements.
Atul followed her and found her behind the pillar.He kept his hand on her shoulder, Nikki startled n turned around with teary eyes n relaxed seeing it was Atul. She couldn't control her sob n kept her head on Atul's shoulder.He comforted her n told her "control urself Nikki.Its not goin to be easy to hide truth from them for long".Nikki replied in her sobbing voice "I know that but we have to because we don't have any other choice". Atul looked around n said "Lets go Nikki, they r searching for us".He looked back at Nikki who pulled up her head n brushed away her tears."I m fine now, lets go"Nikki put up her fake smile again.
"Where have the two of you been ? We know that u both did all these preparations but it doesn't mean that u avoid us becauz of that" Muskaan said this to stop Rahul from starting any conversation with her. Nikki said with smile "Common lets start the fun". Armaan interrupted Nikki "I think we should wait for Dr.Modi to start the party".Nikki got dumbstruck as to how to respond to this question. Atul said "He is not coming as he is out for some meeting" and gave an assuring nod to Nikki. Nikki thanked him with her eyes .Armaan said " Oh that means we can't meet him today".
Atul dragged all of them to the dance floor n told Nikki to join them. Nikki took a deep breath to relax herself from all the questioning she had to go through. She smiled watching all her friends enjoying themselves. Armaan came to her n asked her "U have given a promise to ur bf that u not going to dance with anyone except him huh ?".Nikki replied "ahh no". He dragged her on dance floor n eyed her to dance with them.
Jiah entered the party n Nikki noticed her. She got dumbstruck by seeing her at party n atul noticed Nikki n asked "What happened ? why have you stopped dancing".By recieving no answer from her he followed nikki's eyes and got shocked to see jiah.
"What is she doing here??"Atul asked with worry.Nikki said "How can I know??U called her ?".Atul disbelievingly said "have u gone mad why would I call her??".Nikki asked him "Then who called her here". Atul said "I don't know".Nikki plead with Atul "Do something".Atul relaxing Nikki "ok I'll do something, u just relax".
"What r u both talking about huh??"Armaan asked them.Atul said "Nothing".Anjali draged Atul by his hand to dance with her. Nikki's eyes followed Atul who was stuck with Anjali. Nikki again turned around to find jiah but failed to trace her in the crowd. She got tensed n decide to do something on her own.
Soon the whole gang got tired n got down from the dance floor to take some refreshments. Atul ran from there, spotted Nikki n tapped her shoulder.She turned around n looked at him with tensed eyes .He asked her with half breathe "Where is she?"Nikki said with worry "I can't spot her . where is she ?"Atul gAVE assurance to Nikki "Don't worry we will find out soon".Atul n Nikki started wandering all over the place find her but were dissapointed.
Atlast they went to the juice corner where all theire friends were sitting n enjoying their juices. Both marched towards the gang. Armaan asked them " Whats wrong with the two of u??Why do you keep dissapearing so much??"Atul replied "We just went to check the arrangments"Armaan told them "How many times do you need to go to check this". At this both just exchanged glaces with each other.
There was one girl standing with her back towards Atul n Nikki ad facing the gang. Amaan told them "Someone is asking about u both".Both asked "who?".Girl turned around n said "I m".Both felt as if someone had pulled the carpet from beneath their feet.She was none other than Jiah.
Jiah asked them both "U r not going to introduced me to ur friends".They both just stood still not able to move or speak.Jiah smiled n said "ok let me introduce myself I m Dr.Jiah Modi, Dr.Abhimanyu Modi's wife".All got shocked n turned their eyes towards Nikki who stood facing several questioning eyes on her.
