"Afters?"
The fan responded:
"Afters... What are we doing baby?"
The conversation went back and forth, with Lipa asking if Mel (the fan) had any plans. Mel replied with:
"I wanna know what your plans are," to which Dua replied, "well, I got four nights at the Garden to complete, baby."
Mel responded to Dua, saying:
"I know you do. I'll be here all weekend."
Dua iconically said:
"Well, maybe we'll see about 'afters' after that," she then proceeds to tell the girls to take a picture together.
