"Parth now eat food, just one morsel"Arpita spoke out sweetly to Parth who was unable to eat anything even after his parent's final rites.

"I am not hungry, Arpita just leave me alone" Parth spoke out melancholy.

"Hmm...if you won't eat food, then I too won't eat anything" Arpita spoke out.

"Please eat food and leave me alone. Nothing is making sense to me now," Parth spoke, teary-eyed.

"Okay... I am going, but you repent it later when you will miss me," Arpita said before leaving Parth alone.

"Class today I am giving you all, an assignment to complete, get it done by tomorrow morning" Vardhan sir spoke.

"Sir, these questions are tough to solve, how will we solve it in just a day?"Vidushi questioned.

"I will assign partners in alphabetical order. Two people will work on one assignment sheet," Vardhan replied.

Randhir and Sanyukta got paired alphabetically, while Jiggi and Kaustuki got teamed with Kaustuki.

On the other, Vidushi and Parth got paired up together.

"We will have to work all night to get it done. Let's sit in the library and get it finished on time," Jiggi suggested.

Sanyukta,Randhir and Kaustuki agreed in unison.

"Can I and Parth join you all in the library?" Vidushi asked enthusiastically.

"Yeah sure but stay 10 feet apart from us" Randhir replied sarcastically.

"Yeah, I can't tolerate the stench of Randhir's armpits. God knows how Sanyukta handles his odor," Vidushi smirked and laughed, thinking it to be the best joke.

Her laugh soon faded as she noticed all of them glaring at her. Randhir would probably punch Vidushi in her face if Sanyukta wasn't holding him back.

"Randhir's armpits are better than your stinky socks and feet. Stop sniffing around like a b*tch and use your brain to study Vidushi Kumar" Sanyukta shot back.

The group then went to the library after lunch. By evening, only half of the work got completed. Everyone again sat at the library after having supper.

Sanyukta and Randhir kept arguing about which method was best to solve the questions.

While Kaustuki and Jignesh were puzzled by the questions, trying to search answers in the books they had.

Parth sat determinant to solve the problems despite the ogles he got from Vidushi who staring him continuously.

"Stop staring me and help in solving the assignment" Parth spoke in annoyance.

"Assignments are crap, Parth let's get to know each other better" Vidushi spoke as she placed her hand on Parth's hand.

"Don't touch me Vidushi" Parth exclaimed.

"Parth don't tell me that you are a Gay!" Vidushi exclaimed and gave him a horrified look.

"Shut up! Get this crap done on your own now" Parth spoke out loudly before storming out of the library.

The librarian gave a dirty look at Sanyukta and others present in the graveyard of books, I mean library. Everyone heard the exchange of feisty words between Parth and Vidushi.

Sanyukta looked at Randhir who was fast asleep. He could beat anyone if a sleeping contest got conducted, even if dinosaurs came to attack, Randhir would sleep peacefully.
