Guys,Listen Sun sathiya song while Only Nandu is Dancing and in the place of Varun dhawan think Manik,closing her eyes as she was little insecure about herself after someone's fall. For mass song, it was the arra arra natumukka Tamil song.

Nandu's Pov

When I open my eyes everyone is staring at me wide-eyed. I know I'm not that bad as Aliyah always says that I'm good at it and asks me to choreograph her. But here no one is saying anything but just staring at me made me doubt myself. To let go of embarrassment, I moved that's when everyone clapped and some whistled too. Even though It boosts my confidence but my mind is having second thoughts again. Mam asked," Why did you close your eyes!?" disapprovingly but then said," Your eyes are so beautiful and If you do with your eyes wide open with an Imagining. It will be at another level and make the dance more intriguing. If you don't think I'm bragging, your way of dancing is so exquisite and was in Indowestern style where everyone simply feels it and joins. And your mass steps and energy were at another level that everyone want to join the beat unlike thinking that it was mass. The bottom line is that you are simply in awe...... "Saying something but cutting her words by saying" Pretty Good". "Moreover, you need to focus on your eyes which should be open as it was the main thing that shows your confidence. If you don't trust yourself then others trample on your career and make you feel miserable even If you got talent".

Listening to her, I'm on cloud Nine but thinking about my eyes closing. I wanted to say to her that I'm bold but then If that was me, I shouldn't have closed my eyes. So I nodded my head obeying her.

Then Mam smiled and ushered everyone to follow-up performances. Likewise, the day got ended. After my dance many of the girls were surrounded me made me so happy. They wanna be friends with me and made me feel special except for that girl, who tripped down.

That's when Mam announced that "Sir is watching all of you till now", which made cries break out. Every one started murmuring, while I'm unaware of What is happening. Mam silenced and announced that from tomorrow onwards, Sir will take classes. That's when I  asked about our Dance master whom I'm not aware of. I came to know Smitha is her name who was so good at hip-hop. She said that he was a tremendous dancer and founded one of the most popular Dance schools in Mumbai. He is well known for his movements. Hearing his greatness, I started admiring him. I felt blessed to be in his classes.

To which Again Whistles and roars uproared. Then she ordered everyone to be here at 8:00 am sharp to which many uproared saying ' No' with disappointment.  Mam again announced to come sharp,' 8:00 am ', If you can't make it in time, then stay at home. With that class got over.

Later I went out and found the girl who got annoyed with me to comfort her, standing there. I just don't know, Whether to talk with her or to avoid her. So I choose my all-time option, to just do your work. So I went to my scooty, and suddenly she said, "Sorry ". I  don't know whether I heard right or It's just that I misheard.

I asked," What?". She again said," Sorry". I smiled and said,' Okay'.Seeing her  I felt like a friend. Then she complimented me that, my dance was so good. I said, "Thank you" hearing her. Then she asked," Did you close your eyes because of me? I mean with your way, I knew that you're a good dancer then why close your eyes? And also how can you dance closing your eyes. Even walking is difficult with closed eyes and here you are dancing..".

"It's nothing like that. Me being introverted this is easy compared to seeing judging faces. Where music takes us into a trance where our body and soul dance leaving our surroundings behind", I said truthfully. That's when I heard claps from behind. Turning to my back, I found Dhruv and Gaurav we're coming towards us and the Gaurav was the one who clapped.

"Like your punch, your words hold so much power in it," He complimented.
Unlike before I don't blush because I doubt he was flirting, even with his innocent face we can't doubt him. But again with my experiences, How can I think of people being Innocent? I forced a smile and Dhruv too smiled and bid " Bye" without talking any other word.

Seeing them the girl wanted to go too. To which I asked," What is your name?" She answered as Nitya. Then she asked," Are we friends?". To which I smiled and said, " Yes, we're". Gaurav doesn't leave but is standing beside me. I asked with a serious face," Are you not going Home?". To which he nodded and left the place.

Then I too left the place but felt someone following me, even though there was no one. Today Mom is on duty, so I went home. Rested on the sofa having snacks and a milkshake as I'm completely tired, that's when Mom called asking me, Where am I? When I said,' I was home.' She ordered me to stop doing that while I'm keeping my legs on the teapoy like she was watching.  I pull off the legs to the floor but again ignoring her I settled comfortably. Then she asked, " How is my day?, What have I done sort off....". While I am thinking to answer them truly or not. She left in a hurry without me being answered.

I don't know when I fell asleep as I'm completely exhausted. I got up with Mom's call. As It was already past 7:00 pm Mom asked me to prepare food for myself only as she won't come home  today

With that, I groaned getting up to prepare some food. I lazily thought of what to prepare. Nothing came to mind, so I opened the fridge door and found surplus veggies and fruits. It confuses me, so I got bread and egg and made sandwiches.

That's when my mobile started ringing. I  don't know where I kept my mobile. While searching for it, the call got ended. I too stopped searching and had a bite, then again my mobile got ringing and now I remembered that I talked with Mom before on the sofa itself. It fell on the edges of the sofa and got stuck. I tried and tried but of no use. It was just the first day of having my mobile the thought of breaking that phone while pulling it out made me tense. I tried but it didn't come out. Then I got a fork and tried it came out easily.

Opening the mobile, I find out it was Manik's call. When I recalled, it didn't get answered. It's been two days of talking with Manik. With that, I failed again but was not answered. So I messaged him 'Good Night' but didn't get a reply.

I just felt disappointed. My sandwiches were no longer hot and also I lost my appetite. But my stomach started growling. So I just had them to suppress my hunger. Later I went to bed with many thoughts of Manik and hopes for Tomorrow's classes.

With thoughts, Deep slumber engulfed me. After many rubbish dreams, I woke up and again slept. In the morning, Mom was home and I slept again with nerve-wracking dreams. I got up late and only had half an hour for Dance class. As It was a little far away from my area.

I rushed, while Mom stopped and gave me a hotbox as I don't have any breakfast. As there is no time, I didn't protest. With that, I went fast. And about to slip off on the road as the route is new for me. But then I realized I should go slow not in a hurry unless to reach there with my bones intact.

Seeing students around made me realize that I am on time. Everyone was around except the familiar faces of my class students. So I moved forward debating whether I am early or late. As there was little tension raised in me that how would the master and about the first impressions.

There was no one outside mine made me think that I'm late. Debating myself, I knocked on the door and heard 'Come in.'I pushed the door and saw the students but heard the familiar voice that I am late.

I turned to see the person who all are staring and was shocked by the person standing there, my feelings erupted in me and my eyes got teary. My brain is shouting to shut the door and go back to your safe shell. Different emotions and different things make me more emotional. In one way I'm guilty of misunderstanding him, and in another way, I'm angry for whatever reason he was not there with me, Mom's face was seen in front of my eyes, even Sid's face too.

There was a lump formed in my throat as I am about to break in front of everyone If he utters another word. The only thing I wanna say is, "Dad" taking in his features.
