Nikhil Arora.

You're pregnant ?

No l'm.. l'm Ambar's boyfriend.

So you're the one

who's scared of blood.

You're really scared aren't you ?

- Yes.. can we do this quickly ?

You don't wory at all.

lt won't even take a minute.

We just need to put a syringe in

your vein and extract 10 ccs of blood.

Nick, are you okay ?

No. So please hury up and

do what you have to do.

lt's over.

Did it hur ?

What ? lt's over ? Are we done ?

Can l go ? - Sure.

You'll get the repor tomorrow.

You can take this copy of the

sonography with you if you like.

Give it to Ambar.

Thank you.

And congratulations.

Oh, for the blood test ?

No, for the twins.

Twins ?

Yes. Didn't Ambar tell you ?

You're going to have twins

l'm meeting you for the first time

today in eight months of her pregnancy.

You're the father, Nick.

Don't you have any responsibility ?

She's doing everything alone.

There's nobody to help her,

neither her family, nor yours.

l've told her to rest but

l don't think she's listening.

Nick, you need to

suppor her, help her.

She's gone through this all

alone and that's not fair.

She needs love, she needs to be

cared for and only you can do this.

Please. Please be

there for her now, Nick.

Because l love you.

And maybe l want the right

to have a say in your life,

and l want to give you that right too.

Why are we afraid of giving

this relationship a name, Nick ?

l'm not afraid, Amby.

l'm not afraid of giving

this relationship a name now.

l'll take this one.

Nick, you're not being fair.

The decision to separate was yours.

You weren't ready for commitment.

So what was she supposed to do ?

Wait for you all her life ?

Or wallow in sorrow ?

Get real Nick, it's 2005.

Eveyone has a life.

Was it so easy for her ?

You'd like it if

it was difficult, right ?

l still love her.

- No you don't

lf you did love her,

you wouldn't have left her in this condition.

Couldn't she have

waited a little while ?

Did you tell her to wait ?

Now you'll just have

to live with that.

Hi baby.

Oh God. l'm so sory !

Of course l remember.

Nick had a small problem.

No l'm not drinking with him ! Really !

l'll be right over baby.

Sh*t, yaar. Cathy wanted to eat

swiss rolls and l completely forgot.
