The sound echoed… Simmi's hand cupped her cheek rubbing the spot. She looked back at Taani trying to open her mouth. "Not a single word" Taani stressed on each syllable. "Hey…what are yo..." Nil stepped forward ready to barge on Taani. Swayam and Wahi moved simultaneously. But Taani beat them. "Awaaz neeche.... Agar tumhe bi tappad chahiye to… Mera haat abi Kali hai" Taani squabbled. Vicky stepped a foot back. Others watched them unable to speak anything. "Kya kaha tune…." She revolted against simmi. "Mujhe gatiya bolne se pehle tum logon ka harkaton ko ek baar deklo…" She continued incessantly. "Waha tumhara friends ka break up hua hai… unko sambalna ki Baja aap log mujhe taunt karneka mauka dund rahe ho…" she sneered in disgust.

"Swayam…. Tum apne behen ko Zara sambalo… wo bahut zyada Kar rahi hai." Nil set his jaw tight. "Mein kyun usko sambalu jab galti aplogone Kiya.." Swayam glowered. Taani was astounded. She never expected he would support her against his friends in this life time. At last he was definitely opening his mouth against the wrong. "Swayam sahi keh Raha hai, Nilesh… aplogo ne Taani ko pehle, bura Bala kaha… Babu… tum bi in dono ki tarah baat Kar rahe ho… bahut bura Kiya hai tumlogone" Neha added in support of Taani. "Aap log bi usko support Kar rahe ho… isne mujhe tappad Mara..." Simmi screeched at Neha and Swayam. "Toh… usme uska Kya galti hai, simmi. Tune bewaja usko itna bura sunaya… agar mein uski jaga mein hoti to… pehli baar jab tune muh khola ta… tab hi mein tume ek nahi… teen teen tappad Marti..." Neha repelled. Simmi stared her. "Abe Kya... Hum logo ke upar hi gali de rahi hai" Bharath invaded. "Isme tumhara BF bi hai" he was confused at her not supporting them. "Tum chup raho Bharath… Babu ko mein kabse samja toh rahi hu…" she frowned at Vicky nauseated.

"Tumko tasalli ho Gaya Taani… ab humare hi friends humko suna rahe hai…" Nil argued again. "Wo Taani ki wajahse nahi… ap khud logon ki wajahse…" Wahi spoke. "I wonder, jitna Neha ko akal hai… utna apke pass hota shayad…" he glared at all the 3. Neha flushed at his compliment. "Unhe itna dimag nahi hai, Wahi. Agar hota ye sab nahi hota…." Taani's face twitched. "Kab se mein chup hu…. Meri chupi ko aap advantage mat banayiye… mein wo Taani nahi hu Jo apka har taunt chupke sunke ronewali ti… nahi… tab toh Mera Bhai aur Rey ka muh dekake chup ti… unhe bura na Lage... Unse Mera relationship apki wajahse Karab na ho… bolke sab kuch sehti ti..." she screamed. "Lekin... ab... Ab Tum jaise logonko kab kaise jawab Dena hai… mein ache se jaanti hu…" she paused watching them. "Kya kaha tum logone, meine Rey ko hurt Kiya ta…. Jab ki usne Mera Dil todata… Mera sab kuch todata…. Kisi ek, aap meinse mere liye Kade nahi Hui… na Mera Bhai bi…" she looked at Swayam in pain. His face compressed into agony. He knew his mistakes. But when Taani put out in sentences, it tormented him. Others in the gang looked ashamed.

"Aap logonko Kya lagta hai… ye sab mujhe Rey ne Diya hai… ap shayad bhul rahe ho ki… Jo kuch bi mere pass hai… wo sab mera kamaya hua hai… I have worked hard day and night to achieve this position… mind it" she emphasized. "Mere friends… wo log Rey ki wajahse mujhse dosti nahi ki… jaise aap log karte te... Wo log mujhe dekake… mujhe pasand karke…. Mujhse dosti Kiya hai…" she laughed through affliction. "Don't you even dare to tell me otherwise…" she chided.

"Aaj bi ap mein se kisiko himmat nahi hai ki Kriya ke saath Kade ho ne ka… kyun… because Rey ko bura lagega… ya uske good books mein se nahi jana chahte ho?" She quizzed. Every one of the gang member lowered their heads. Even Simmi and Nil were abashed by it.

"Ek baar meine ap logonko pe taras kake maafi ka beek Diya ta... Lekin is baar nahi…" Taani was serious. "Mujhe ek minute  ka kaam hai… apko yahanse nikalwane ka…. Aur aaj mein Wahi karungi…" she snapped her fingers at Vicky, simmi and Nil. "Bahut bol liya aap logone… mein be dekna chahti Hun... Is academy ke baahar apka arrogance aur kitna badega…" she apprised. SwaRon and gang including Vicky, Nil and Simmi were thunderstruck. Never even for a second they thought, Taani would consider such a big decision. If she proceeded with her warning, they will be out of the gates within minutes. The fear of losing the opportunity clouded them again. Three of them looked at SwaRon for help but they looked in disgust. It was an opportunity of lifetime and they destroyed it. All because of… their unsatisfied self-esteem. Whatever Taani said was completely true. She had earned all of it by her own. Now when she's happy in her life they couldn't digest it and put all their frustration upon her by demeaning her. When no help came, Vicky was the first one to realise his mistake. Their team would break, if they are thrown out. Dream of opening D3 academy was at stake because of them. How would Rey react if he gets to know that they have done the damage again. Which this time was irreversible. They would be definitely banned and no one would aid them.
