Dosti hi pyar hai

Chapter 20

After AshDeep left only 7 of them were left.

Jaan: Mujhe abhi dance studio jana h. College khulne k baad se gyi nhi hoon.

Faiz: Mujhe bhi jana h.

Jaan rolled her eyes and signed him to follow her. She tried her best to stay mad at him. When they reached the dance studio many people were present there.

Choreographer: Aaj tum dono bade dino baad aaye ho. Leave it. Is week duets krne wale h hum.

Jaan: Partners decide ho gye?

Choreographer: Nhi. Sab baith k decide kr lo kisko kiske saath krna h. Tumlog decide kro aur phir stretching start krna mai thodi der mein aa rha hoon.

The choreographer left the stodio and everyone started discussing about dance partners. A girl approached Faiz.

Girl: Faiz tum mere saath dance kroge?

Faiz looked at Jaan because apparently she was mad at him, so she won't dance with him, right?She tried to act like she doesn't care. So Faiz turned back to the girl.

Faiz: Ofcourse. Mere paas bhi dance partner nhi h.

Jaan looked at him in disbelief, as she was his eternal dance partner and how can someone take her place. As if the day was cursed, the second Faiz agreed to dance with the girl, a guy from behind told them to start stretching. Jaan looked at Faiz and the girl stretching. She saw the girl touching Faiz's arms and legs to help him stretch which is quite normal, but it was not for her. Her raging self went towards them immediately.

Jaan: Faiz tu mere saath dance krega.

She turned towards the girl.

Jaan: Tumhe pta nhi h kya MAI aur Faiz humesha saath mein dance krte h?

The girl muttered a low "sorry" and went away. What Jaan didn't know was that Faiz planned it with the girl to make Jaan dance with him. He chuckled silently at the success of his plan.

Faiz: I thought tu gussa thi.

Jaan: Abhi bhi hoon. Par jo kaam saath mein krte h woh saath mein hi honge.
Jaan thought that this jealousy was same as when she was scared of losing a friend like Sid. But no it wasn't the same.
______________________________

Almost two weeks passed, everything was going peacefully except the Payal girl. Raj ignored her as much as he could. Jaan was not mad at Faiz anymore, he somehow managed to coax her. Even Jaan and Avu were on good terms now.
Abhi was in his room lying on his bed and staring at the ceiling. His state was much better after writing the diary. Today he had nothing to do, he already completed his classes for today, no work left. He suddenly decided to re-read his diary, which he was writing regularly since 15 days. He opened the diary and turned to the first entry he made. First entry was about how his friends told him start writing a diary and the things he wanted to let out, his past. The second entry was about how that day his anxiety was at it's peak and Vaish saved him from drowning in it. The third entry was about how Vaish's existence was comforting in itself and how she always lifted his mood. Fourth entry was about how he was thankful to have Vaish as his bestfriend who was with him through thick and thin. In short, all the entries were mostly about Vaish. He had mixed feelings, happiness, confusion, adoration. He decided to call Munna to get an experienced answer. Munna picked the call after some rings.

Munna: Ha Abhi?

Abhi: Yaar problem ho gyi.

Munna: Kya hua? Tu theek toh h na?

Abhi: Mai apni diary padh rha tha fir se. And saari entries mein ek hi insaan h. Vaish.

Munna teasing: Arey waah? Mujhe toh day 1 se pta tha.
