Ronit, Diksha and Arhan all three made a face after seeing Arush. "Yes Arush say", Anaya said, getting up from her seat. Arush started thinking for an excuse.

Now, how can he ask Anaya directly for a date that too in front of them. They would never let her go. He smiled and said, "Nothing, I'll come later".

"Okay then, bye", Ronit said waving his hand while indicating him to go. Arush fake smiled and went from there quietly. After coming outside he bang his hand on the wall. "Shit!! I have to ask her but how??"

After departure, Anaya, Diksha and Mohit were going towards their homes. They all were going towards the parking when Anaya's eyes fell on a puppy. "Hey look there", she pointed towards the puppy. Everyone looked in that direction and went there.

Anaya picked the puppy in her hands and started caressing his head. "This is so cute", she said.

Diksha also touched him and said, "Ya and so soft also".

Anaya put the puppy down and took out her water bottle from her bag. She looked at the bottle and found it empty. "I have water", said Mohit and passed her the water bottle. Anaya took the water in its cap and put it in front of the puppy.

The puppy immediately jumped on the water as if it had been thirsty for ages. "Diksha, do you food left in your tiffin???", Anaya asked.

"Ya, I have some prathas left", she replied after thinking.

"Give it, he must be hungry also", she said and Diksha took out the lunchbox. Anaya started feeding him. After feeding she got up and said, "okii buddy, let's meet tomorrow". The puppy lick her feet in response. She smiled and they all left.

Next day, Arhan was getting ready and Ronit was in his room sitting on his bed. Arhan was taking out something from his cupboard when the paper he hide between his clothes fell.

Ronit's eyes fell on the paper and he asked, "What is this?". Listening Ronit, Arhan's attention too went towards that paper.

Before Ronit could pick the paper, Arhan rushed and picked it. "Nothing, it's just the list of children names", saying this he immediately hide it in his bag. Ronit narrowed his eyes as he felt something fishy but, he thought to inquire it later because if he did now, than Arhan will surely give him a excuse and hide the truth.

At school, everyone was busy in the preparations. Ronit, Diksha, Mohit were in classroom discussing something. Arhan entered in the classroom, ignoring them he directly went towards his seat and took out his book and started reading.

"Don't tell me he will study at this time also", Diksha said looking at him. "I mean who misses Diwali party preparations and study", she added further.

"Bro he is a topper and he doesn't waste his time like us", Mohit patted her head a little.

Arhan turned the page of the book and the page he was hiding flew due to air and fell directly on Ronit's feet. Arhan and Ronit both looked at the paper and then at each other. Ronit smirked and Arhan got from his expressions that what was he upto. But before he could pick the paper Ronit did and looked at Arhan.

"Give it to me, Ronit", he said in a dominating voice which Ronit successfully ignored and was about to open the page but Arhan rushed to snatch it. Ronit too started running with the paper in his hand saving it from Arhan.
