Chapter - 29

After two weeks....

As the vacation approaches, excitement fills the air in the hostel as students prepare to return home to their families. In their shared room, Kashish and Ritika are busy folding clothes and packing their belongings.

Kashish: "I can't wait to see my parents! It's been too long since I've been home."

Ritika: "Yeah, me too! I miss my mom's cooking already."

Kashish: "I wonder if Abhishek will miss me when I'm gone."

Ritika: "Oh, definitely! He won't have anyone to make him laugh like you do."

Kashish smiles, imagining Abhishek's reaction to their departure.

Meanwhile, in the boys' hostel room, Abhishek and Rishab are also packing their bags.

Abhishek: "Man, it's going to be weird without you guys around."

Rishab: "Yeah, but it'll be nice to spend some time with family. And who knows, maybe we'll even miss the chaos of hostel life."

Abhishek: "Maybe. But I'll definitely miss Kashish. It's going to be quiet without her constant chatter."

Rishab chuckles at Abhishek's confession.

As they finish packing, the group gathers in the common area, exchanging hugs and well-wishes for the break ahead.

As the group prepares to depart for their respective homes, Abhishek's mind races with conflicting thoughts. He initially intended to return to his own home in Agra, but as he looks around at his friends, a sudden impulse strikes him. He realizes he doesn't want to spend the break alone, missing Kashish and the others.

Abhishek: "Hey, guys, wait up! I've decided to come with you all to Agra."

His friends are surprised by his sudden change of plans.

Rishab: "What? But I thought you were not heading home."

Abhishek: "Yeah, I was, but... I don't know. I just feel like spending time with you all a little longer."

Kashish, who was listening in, smiles at Abhishek's decision.

Kashish: "That's great! It'll be fun having you with us."

Abhishek nods, trying to hide the real reason behind his decision. He doesn't want to admit that the thought of being away from Kashish for the entire break was unbearable to him.

As they settle into their seats on the bus, Abhishek finds himself sitting next to Kashish. Despite the crowded bus and the noise of passengers chatting around them, Abhishek feels a sense of peace being so close to her.

Kashish: "So, Abhishek, what made you change your mind about going home?"

Abhishek: "Oh, you know, just felt like spending more time with you all. Plus, I didn't want to miss out on any fun."

Kashish smiles, sensing there might be more to his decision than he's letting on. She appreciates his company and doesn't press further.
