"Ridhima, Karan is joking right?", Abhi was in disbelief after knowing about the incident.

Seeing Ridhima quiet, he knew it immediately that it was no a joke, "You were about to stab a man on the street infront of so many people in the broad daylight", he repeated to confirm if he had heard it right. 

"Yes. Thats what she did", Karan sighed.

"It was my reflex action", Ridhima tried to explain.

"Ridhima I understand it but you need to learn to calm down. Slapping and hitting when someone is wrong is okay but you can't attack them deadly", he patted Ridhima, "Neither can I change the past nor can I erase the memories but the future lies in our hands- you need to think before you act. I have seen you changing so I know you. You are not a criminal, you know it", he said calmly.

"I am no criminal, I punish the criminals", Ridhima said, shyly proud at her actions.

Abhi could not help chuckling at her expressions. Had she not been his sister, he definitely would have judged her.

"Leave all that", Ridhima changed the topic to, "I can't sleep peacefully. Do something", she cried. 

"No one can sleep if they go on seeing dramas whole night", Karan interfered. Sara used to go on talking about the dramas whenever they met. His sister and best friend's addiction for dramas was something he never understood.

"I see so much dramas. The handsome actors should come in my dream. Right? But guess what. I get horrifying nightmares instead. I see I am running, somebody is dying, I am hugging a dead body and whatnot. Its eerie", Ridhima sighed irritated.

"Maybe you get deva ju. Visions of past life where you had a petrifying end. Too painful", Karan joked.

"Not funny", Ridhima did not like the remark a bit. Her tone was enough to alarm the boys that her nightmares were getting more and more disturbing.

"Try putting on soft music when you sleep. The scented candles are already there. If it still not helps, I will have no other choice than to give you sleeping pills. Maybe another hypnosis session next month", Abhi suggested.

"Will I never be able to sleep properly? First sleep paralysis and now nightmares", cried out a frustated Ridhima.

"Cheer up girl", Abhi gifted her a chocolate before leaving for work.

"Good day", Ridhima and Karan waved bye.

==================================

 "Vansh, where were you all these time? I went on searching for you in the whole party. How can you vanish like that?", shouted an annoyed Yash right after reaching home. Vansh's habit of disappearing unwarned was getting on his nerves.

"I went to the terrace. Those girls were throwing themselves on me", Vansh apologized.

"They were just flirting man. They do like that with me too", Yash explained.

"You know them. I don't know them and I hate how they cling to an unknown man", Vansh replied.

"Tell me truthfully. Are you gay?", Yash inquired, walking back. Vansh's disinterest towards girls was too suspicious at times.

"No. I had girlfriends. You know that", Vansh was irritated by his roommate's weird behaviour.

"Or are you preparing to become a sage?", Yash enquired.

Yash's imagination amused Vansh this time.

"Or maybe you have any childhood sweetheart in India?", he continued letting out his imaginations.

'Maybe', Vansh blushed at his own thought.

"No. Thats not possible. No female except your mother has called you in all these years", Yash sighed, breaking Vansh's imaginary love bubble into pieces.

'Does she not remember me a bit?' Vansh questioned his heart while checking his phone once again. Not even a single message from her.
