Next round, this time too Arhan's team was having the ball but Anaya took the lead of the ball and started going. Suddenly Arhan appeared in front of her, she pulled the breaks of her legs and stopped herself.

"Give this ball to me Anaya", Arhan demanded.

She got from his expressions that if she didn't give him the ball he will snatch it, so just refusing him, won't work. She started thinking for an excuse. Arhan started taking his steps towards her, while she started pulling her steps backwards.

Suddenly, something popped in her mind and she said pointing towards the sky, "Hey see an elephant is flying". Everyone including Arhan looked at the sky. By the time Arhan realized it, Anaya had already grabbed the opportunity and scored the basket.

Just like that they scored one more basket and now the score is equal. In next round Arhan took the lead of ball because he can't trust anyone else. He throw the ball towards the basket but unfortunately it missed. Anaya's team sighed in relief.

Next round, Anaya was having the ball, she was moving towards the ball when Arhan's teammates came in the way to stop her. She passed the ball to Sona and she started moving. Just like this passing the ball to each other they reached near the basket and Anaya threw the ball and scored the basket.

As she scored the basket, the bell rang and Anaya shouted, "Jjeeeeeeettt gyyeeeeee". Anaya's teammates came and hugged Anaya and started celebrating like they have won the world cup.

{Weeeeeeee wwoooonnnn}

Arhan was just looking at her with a soft smile. He deliberately lost the last round to make her win. Even if he had won, he would not have been as happy as he was now. The inner peace he was getting after seeing her dancing carefree and celebrating was just undescribable. At that moment, all he wanted was to stop time and adore her smiling and giggling.

Anaya's eyes fell on him. She and her teammates went to him and started chanting, "Jeet gye, hum jeet gye", while circling around him.

{We won, we won}

Anaya started teasing him while circling, "Someone was saying he's champion but still lost and we won". Arhan was just smiling, looking at her childishness. After completing two three rounds, Anaya asked all the students to go in their class.

They made a queue and started going towards their classroom while waving their hands and biding them bye. Anaya did the same looking at them, meanwhile Arhan just smiled.

After they went, Anaya turned her face  towards Arhan and said, "So Mr. Champion, you lost". Arhan just rolled his eyes and started walking towards the classroom.

Anaya followed him. "Well you should eat almonds instead of Complan, it will be more beneficial", she mocked while matching his speed.

Arhan paused his steps and looked at her with narrow eyes, "And why so, Miss Rathor??".

"Because it will sharp your memory and you will remember whom to not mess up with next time, Mr. Oberoi", she replied with the same attitude as Arhan.

Arhan smiled and turning towards her he said, "jitni sidhi dikhti ho utni ho nahi".

{You aren't that innocent as you look}

Anaya smriked and looking into his eyes, she replied, "Abhi tumne deakha he kya hai, dhere dhere pta chalega mein kya cheez hu".

{You don't know me well, gradually you will get to know who I am}

They kept staring into each others eyes until someone call Anaya's name. She flinched and went meanwhile Arhan was just looking at her with a soft smile.
