In the canteen......

As they sat in the canteen, Shreya initiated the conversation about the competition.

"So, guys, what competitions are you all planning to participate in?" Shreya inquired, her eyes scanning the group.

Kashish pondered for a moment before replying, "I'm thinking of joining the business plan competition. I've always wanted to start my own business, so why not gain some experience through this competition?"

Shreya nodded in agreement. "That's a great idea. Plus, it'll be helpful for your future endeavors. What about you, Ritika?"

Ritika smiled. "Actually, I was thinking we could partner up and participate together. I've also been eyeing the business plan competition, so why not join forces?"

"Perfect!" Kashish exclaimed. "I was looking for a partner myself. It's settled then."

Turning to the rest of the group, Kashish prompted, "Now, what about the rest of you? Any decisions yet?"

Divya spoke up, "Tanmay and I have decided to take on the debate competition as competitors. We're ready to argue our way to victory!"

Kashish grinned. "That sounds exciting! Debating will definitely put your skills to the test. And you, Shreya?"

Shreya hesitated, unsure of her choice. "I'm not sure which competition to choose," she admitted.

Harshit chimed in, "Why don't you join Rishab and me in the case study analysis competition? We could use another sharp mind on our team."

Shreya considered the suggestion before nodding with a smile. "That sounds like a plan. Count me in for the case study analysis competition."

With everyone now committed to their respective competitions, the group began discussing strategies and planning their next steps.

After some time.....

In the cafeteria.......

Kashish and Ritika sat together in the bustling cafeteria their heads bent close as they discussed their plans for the upcoming business plan competition.

Kashish leaned in, excitement evident in her voice. "I was thinking, Ritika, why don't we delve into the world of fashion for our business plan?"

Ritika's eyes sparkled with interest. "Fashion? That's a brilliant idea, Kashish! It's such a dynamic and ever-evolving industry. But what specifically do you have in mind?"

"Well," Kashish began, her mind already buzzing with ideas.

As Kashish and Ritika discussed their ideas for the competition, Ritika's gaze drifted momentarily, catching sight of Abhishek walking towards them. However, something caught her attention-an unfamiliar girl accompanying him.

Ritika nudged Kashish discreetly, inclining her head towards Abhishek and the mystery girl. "Kashish, look," she whispered, her curiosity piqued.

Kashish followed Ritika's gaze, her brow furrowing in confusion as she observed the unfamiliar figure beside Abhishek. "Who's that?" she murmured, equally intrigued.

As Abhishek approached their table and introduced Maya as his partner for the talent competition, Kashish's smile faltered slightly. She forced a polite response, but the jealousy simmered beneath the surface.

Kashish: "Oh, okay. Nice to meet you, Maya."

Ritika: "Hey, Maya! . I'm Ritika, by the way."

Maya: "Hi, Ritika. Nice to meet you too."

Ritika: "So, Maya, what made you decide to team up with Abhishek?"

Maya: "Well, we both share a passion for music, and when Abhishek approached me about the competition, I thought it would be a great opportunity to showcase our talents together."

Ritika: "That's awesome! I'm sure you guys will make a fantastic team."

While Ritika was engaged in conversation with Maya, Kashish struggled to mask her feelings of jealousy. She discreetly glanced at Abhishek and Maya, observing their easy camaraderie, and couldn't help but feel a pang of insecurity.

Kashish: (inner thoughts) Why does Abhishek seem so comfortable with Maya?

Unable to shake off her jealousy, Kashish decided to take matters into her own hands. She turned to Abhishek with a forced smile.

Kashish: "Abhishek, are you free right now?"

Abhishek: "Sure, what's up?"

Kashish: "I want to go somewhere. Come with me."

She took Abhishek's hand and led him out of the cafeteria.

As they walked through the silent corridor, Kashish's mind was consumed by a whirlwind of emotions. She needed to distract herself from the jealousy gnawing at her heart, to reclaim Abhishek's attention, to remind him of their bond.

"Kashish, can you please tell me where we are going?" Abhishek's voice was tinged with urgency as she guided him towards a secluded corner.

Before Abhishek could respond, Kashish pressed him against the wall, her hands finding their way to his chest. With deliberate movements, she began unbuttoning the first two buttons of his shirt, her touch feather-light yet purposeful.

Abhishek's breath hitched as Kashish's lips trailed along his neck, leaving a mark of their passion. The love bite she left behind was a deep shade of crimson, a testament to their shared desire and intensity. It was a silent declaration of their love, an intimate bond visible only to them.

As Abhishek surrendered to the moment, he wrapped his arms around Kashish's waist, pulling her closer.

Abhishek: while holding her in his arms Why did you do that? If someone sees us like this...

Kashish: I did it intentionally. I want others to know that you're already taken, that you're mine, and you can't be comfortable with another girl. It's my order.

Abhishek: smirking Oh, my princess is jealous.

Kashish: Yes, I am.

Abhishek: Listen, when I went to register, they said solo entries weren't allowed; it had to be in teams. Maya was there, and she also wanted to do a solo entry. So, I asked her if she'd mind teaming up with me. That's why I partnered with her. But if you're uncomfortable with it, I can withdraw my registration.

Kashish: No, I want you to take part. I trust you.

Abhishek: holding her waist, he changes their position, pressing Kashish gently against the wall

Kashish: Abhishek, what are you doing?

Abhishek puts his lips on hers, initiating a passionate kiss. Kashish, caught up in the moment, responds eagerly, kissing him back with equal fervor. Their lips move in perfect sync, and Kashish opens her mouth to allow Abhishek's tongue inside, exploring every corner of her mouth. Their tongues intertwine, deepening the intensity of their kiss. Eventually, they break apart, both breathing heavily, their foreheads pressed together.

Abhishek: Now, let's go. Everyone will be waiting.

Kashish: Yes.

They both leave the secluded spot, hand in hand.
