Ayaan immediately intervened, resuming the conversation.

Ayaan: Let’s first get the seniors to agree and make sure the location is sorted.

Trisha: Even if the elders agree, what about the kids? I still think Prisha is too small to be left without us for five days.

Simran replied almost instantly.

Simran: I agree.

Meher’s message followed.

Meher: That’s exactly what’s bothering me. I’ve never stayed away from Arnav and Myra for that long either.

Siya joined in.

Siya: Same here. And honestly, I have a feeling Rudra and the others are going to turn RK Estate upside down if all of them are together.

A pause.

Siya: I don’t know how the grandparents are going to survive them.

Krish: There we go again. We had left the last conversation hanging right here at this point. @Trisha, we fathers are obviously going to miss our kids as much as you mothers will. But we’re asking for four or five days with our wives. That’s it.

Vishnu replied next.

Vishnu: And it’s not like we’re leaving the kids alone. They’ll have their grandparents, security, staff and everyone they know around them.

Trisha: I’m still not sure. What about you girls? @Siya @Meher @Simran

Siya: Same here.

Meher: With you.

Simran: Ditto.

Vishnu finally replied.

Vishnu: Huh. I think we need another plan then.

Ayaan’s message appeared beneath his.

Ayaan: I don’t have a better one. What about you, Raghav?

Raghav: (thumbs down emoji)

Krish: Okay, in that case, I think I have an even better idea (winking)

Raghav leaned back in his chair, already expecting trouble because of the emoji in his message.

Krish: So, if the women aren’t interested in coming along... I say the four of us go on a boys’ trip. What say @Ayaan @Vishnu @Raghav?

Raghav raised an eyebrow as another message landed from Krish.

Krish: Bali? Pattaya? Bangkok? Name it guys!

There was a brief pause before Ayaan replied.

Ayaan: Bangkok has my vote.
