The day starts with football match, everyone is seated in stadium to enjoy competition rumi, agastya, sidharth and shehnaaz cheer for their team and use banners to show support. They were extremely happy with score boards until lead player fell down upsetting everyone. Sidharth couldn't restrict himself worriedly ran on ground to boost confidence level of player and sports teacher request him to play on behalf of rishabh since entire team was dependent on him. He had   individually scored more than other members due to which lost confidence. 

"I haven't practiced, how can you expect me to play ?" sidharth questioned in astonishment since this wasn't expected. 

"You are a brilliant player dude, drama competition shaam ko hai is waqt hum sabko tumhare saath ke zaroorat hai, please help us out" player request cause sidharth is their last hope to win or lose after all none can beat champion. 

Sidharth quietly proceeds inside locker room while every body prayed for him to return back as player thankfully their last hope camein running grabbing all the attention. Shehnaaz felt her lips curl into beautiful smile delight fully jump on her seat loudly cheering for sidharth, no matter how much difference occur between them, none of the two can stop supporting other which is the beauty of their unique relationship. Rumi and agastya too stood up and clapped hard followed by others it's like everybody gained back their confidence. He is very happy to see her pale face lit up moreover naaz is openly yelling out his name standing by his side as support system although none of them interacted well since party night. Her bright smile as sun and twinkling eyes as stars gave him confidence infact pushed him to play to keep that heart warming smile intact.

Rumi and agastya are in awe of sidnaaz anybody could feel their indifferences are too much. It will take time and patience to mend back broken hearts yet it took simple competition to put everything behind and stand unbreakable. He landed on particular zone where sidharth has to do a lot of hard work and win this competition as admirable surprise for shehnaaz. He discussed some trick to be used on field while playing and made perfect strategies to tackle mostly difficult situations or experienced players. He made goals further adding new marks on score board. 

After sometime, commentator announce their university as winner after all it's scoreboard was untouchable. Sidharth made sure they don't allow other team to build new scores and maintain their lead. The team members, pick sidharth  along rishabh on their shoulders celebrating win instead of carrying trophy as it could have become impossible to score even 10 without them. Principle felt proud as well as teachers, rumi and agastya hug sidharth while poor boy kept waiting for shehnaaz, didn't go unnoticed by them. 

"Tere liye bohut khush aur proud feel kar rahe hai" rumi utters with a genuine smile by caressing his shoulder which is exhausted. 

"Yeah right, isliye milne aur congratulate bhi nahi karne aye" sidharth snorted due to which agastya and rumi roll their eyes, he himself says action are more precious and louder than words didn't he notice her cheering him from crowd yet doubts on her intention. 

"Have you started prioritising words over actions ?"agastya question by raising an eyebrow in anticipation and confusion. 

"No, I haven't for me action speak louder than words lekin phir bhi chahiye tha ke tum dono ki tarha woh bhi mujhe hug karke congratulate kare but I am very happy difference side rakh kar usne sabke samne mere liye cheer kiya, really it is more than enough, after our endless argument" sidharth clearly mutters his point of view knocking extra sense in their head. 

"True, no worries aaj usne tera saath diya yeh apne aap mein bohut bade baat hai after all she had been way too ignorant & stubborn bhao bhi nahin dairahe thi waise mazah agaya, pehle wale shehnaaz ko dekhkar" agastya chuckles on his bestfriend while sidharth playfully smacks his head.
