"Please God, please don't make me face another heartbreak" murmured a girl who was sitting in the stands with her eyes clossed and fingers crossed. 
"Aren't you here to watch the match, how are you going to enjoy it with your eyes closed" asked the guy sitting besides her
"Because I can't afford watching him get out with my own eyes"
"Oh come on! there's no way he's getting out now, both the players are pretty much set now. Looking at the current I'm even sure that they are going to win the trophy"
"Shut up! don't jinx us. We fans always get our hearts broken last minute"

Now that you maybe wondering what is the reason behind this chaotic conversation, here we have Aarushi and her bestfriend Yash attending the IPL finals and what makes it more special is the fact her favourite team- RCB is the one currently on field 

"Rushi come on yaar, RCB literally needs just 26 runs from 14 balls. I'm damn sure they are winning this one"
"Don't you remember it was a similar situation in 2016. Back then too you said RCB is winning this one and in the end we lost to SRH"
"Yaar that was in the past this time I'm sure we'll win. Look Virat and Maxwell are still playing, there's no way they'll won't be able chase those runs"
"I know, but the opposite team still has one over left of Shami and you know how deadly he bowls"
"Look look look, I think the ball is going for a six" Yash said as Aarushi immediately opened her eyes only to see the ball falling right into the hands of the fielder as Maxwell got out. 
"Didn't I tell you not to jinx us" Aarushi said with her scary gaze piercing right through Yash's soul
"You know what, you should keep your eyes closed and I'm going to keep my mouth shut"........................... ' Wah she looked so scary' Yash murmured to himself as he diverted his attention back to the game

"It's Virat Kohli whose on strike. RCB needs 3 runs in 1 ball, will Virat be able to make it and bring the first trophy for his team or will the wait continue." said one of the commentator as all the fans were on the edge of their seats, breaths hold and eyes fixed on the man standing on the field holding the bat ready to strike the ball.

..................................................
"And Virat hit the ball high up in the air is it going to cross th boundary line or not............................yes it does, the ball goes over for a brilliant six. Virat does it for the team, RCB wins their first trophy after a long wait. The fans are beyond thrilled and so are his teammates rushing towards him with the biggest smiles on the face. Virat 'The Greatest Of All Time' Kohli has done it" was the commentary that brought almost all the fans in tears. 
"We did it Yash, we won the finals" Aarushi said jumping with joy as Yash did the same
"Didn't I tell they are winning this one. See from now on you should trust my instincts"
"Whatever!" she said as both of them slumped back on their seats. "It still feels like dream, the most beautiful dre-Ouch! Idiot why did you pinch me"
"To make you believe that this isn't a dream but the reality"
"You are de-" before she could complete her sentence a person who she guessed to be a representative for the RCB team by looking at his jersey came towards her
"Ma'am does seat number happen to be '0181'" he asked ............................. "Yes it does" she replied looking at the ticket in her hand.
"Congratulations Ma'am you are our lucky winner for today. As you might already know after every RCB match we pick a random seat no. in lucky draw, who gets to meet the team and in this match it happens to be you"
"Rushi..............rushi............hello where are you lost" Yash said trying to gain his bestfriends attention.
"Yash did I hear everything correctly or was I just hallucinating" she asked still bewildered 
"You heard everything correctly, you are finally getting a chance to meet you idol. Go quickly" 
"Come with me na, let's go together" she said
"Idiot only 1 person is allowed, so you better go and fulfill your wish. I'll be waiting near our car."
"Ok" she said as she followed the representative towards the dressing room
