"It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves."

When Rajveer left the room in haste, Naina was still in the effect of the kiss. On one side she is chiding herself for allowing Rajveer for such a thing, on the other side her heart is doing somersault, her first kiss that too with Rajveer.

She should feel offended, she should have pushed him away. But she did not. She, herself dont know the reason behind this. She, to divert her mind took her phone, but wait, her phone doesnt have screen lock. Anyone can use her phone.

She checked the phone and the back cover said its Rajveer's. She smiled at the co-incidence, both of them carry the same model.

She took the phone, straightened her dress, and went to find Rajveer. She found every place, but he was nowhere, when finally she found him sitting on a bench and talking to someone. She thought

"Yeh Rajveer kis se baat kar raha hain?"

She walked towards him, when she overheard his conversation which shook her to the core.

"Haan Nishu, sab kuch under control hain, jaisa humne socha tha. Everything is going according to our plan. Usne Abhay ka naam....."

He turned while talking with Neeksha, and he couldnot speak further when Naina asked

"Rajveer , tum kis se baat kar rahe the abhi, Neekshu se baat kar rahe the naa? Aur Abhay , tum kaise jante ho uske baare mein?Aur kya under control mein hain tumhare? Kis Plan ke baare mein tum assure kar rahe the use,Kau..kaunsa plan?"

But he did not utter a word. How can he? Half truth is worst than a lie. How will he make her understand the truth. He closed his eyes, but the moment they spent together came in front of his eyes. He cannot remember the moment now, or else that moment will also be snatched from him.

He just looked at her, when Naina again asked

"Rajveerrr,maine kuch pucha hain tumse.Kaunsa Plan ,Kis plan ke baare mein baat kar rahe the tum, jawab do mujhe."

But he could only utter a single word

"Naina..."

But Naina was not ready for any explanation, she shouted at him

"Jo kuch bhi maine abhi suna, Kya woh sab ek plan tha, every bloody single thing was just a plan?"

Rajveer somehow gathered his strength and said

"Naina...suno, main tumhe sab kuch samjha sakta hun."

But Naina showed him her palm to stop and asked in a cold voice

"Haan ya Naa."

Rajveer tried touching her shoulder so that he could make her understand, but she moved back and again shouted

"Rajveerrrrrrrrrr, Haaaan yaaa Naaaaa."

Her voice told him, the battle is lost. Every moment which was special for them, is just a plan for her. Every word he said to her is a lie now. He again lost the battle.

He could not understand what to say, so he just looked downwards, because it was clear to him whatever he did at the beginning was wrong. His thoughts were wrong.

Instead of doing all those things if he could directly forwarded his hand for friendship, maybe today the scene would have been different. His silence gave Naina her answer.
