"your back, beneath the sun

wishing I could write my name on it"

Kainaat opened her laptop, she had to do some work for her college, but it wouldn't hurt to watch a few videos, right? She then saw one with Sitara's idol, Virat Kohli.

Sitara loved Virat from the first time she'd seen him play on television. Now she worshiped him and watched all of his matches.

The video caption said "My Missing Sister - Virat Kohli" and Kainaat pressed on it. Virat was in an interview, this was recent.

In the interview, Virat talked about her missing sister. And her name was Sitara.

What a coincidence! Sitara and Virat's missing sister have the same name! Kainaat thought to herself.

She kept watching it, but when Virat described her more, Kainaat realized it was not a coincidence.

"She accidentally ate a staple when she was two, so she has a cut on her bottom lip." Virat said with a few tears in his eyes. This made Kainaat believe that Sitara, her adoptive sister, was her idol's sister.

"No way! But Sitara is in New Zealand, how do I tell her?" Kainaat exclaimed, she wanted her sister to be happy for once. The excitement grew in Kainaat, and she couldn't wait to tell her sister.

Shubman was taking a stroll in the park. It was 6 AM in the morning, so nobody was here except a few others who were jogging early.

Suddenly, Shubman bumped into someone, and they fell. "Hey! I'm so sorry, are you okay? Wait-"

The "somebody" was none other than Sitara Oberoi, Shubman's girlfriend's sister. "Oh, hi there Sitara!"

"Hi." Sitara replied in a casual tone, even though she was so excited on the inside. "How are you? Why are you in New Zealand?" Shubman asked.

"I'm doing great." Sitara said as she jogged with Shubman. "I'm here for my studies, I'm studying to become a singer."

"A singer? Wow, that's impressive. Here for the Under 19 World Cup." Shubman said with his charming smile. His dimples were so cute that Sitara wanted to poke them.

"Haha thanks, also yes you're here for the under 19's!" Sitara said with a nervous chuckle.

"Can I have your number by any chance? I would love to talk to you more, we didn't talk a lot in school." Shubman asked her.

Sitara felt butterflies in her stomach. Was he really asking for her number? "Uh sure! I'll write it down on paper."

Sitara gave her number to Shubman. "Thanks Sitara, I'll call you if I can soon."
