Chapter 1: The Clash of Minds

(It was another bright afternoon when Anvi found herself standing outside the coffee shop, tapping her foot impatiently. She had agreed to meet Advik and his friends, but now that she was here, she had second thoughts. She had never been fond of large gatherings, especially when she was forced to interact with people who didn’t get her.)

As she stood there lost in her thoughts, a familiar voice broke the silence.

" kya khayal hai? Itni der se kya kar rahi ho?” Advik’s voice was full of mischief as he approached her with his ever-present smile.

Anvi raised an eyebrow, clearly irritated. "Kyu!? Tumhe isse kya matlab?"

Advik chuckled. “Aray, tum hamesha gussa kyun rehti ho? Thoda relax ho jao.”

Anvi crossed her arms. “Main relaxed hi rehti hu bas tumhe dekh ke mood khrab ho jata hai.." she said making a weird face to him

Advik took a step closer, his teasing smile never faltering. “Aray, yeh kya baat hui? Hum toh doston ki tarah mil rahe hain, aur tum gussa ho gayi.”

“I said na I'm not angry, I’m just... dealing with nonsense,” she shot back, her tone sharp.

Just then, Vineet came up behind Advik, his usual playful grin plastered on his face. “Kya ho raha hai yahan? Tum dono waps jhagad pade..! hai na!!"

Sana, walking beside him, shook her head, her voice warm and friendly as she greeted Anvi. “Are ye dono toh aise hi hain. Thoda samajha karo baat ko, yeh kabhi serious nahi hote.”

Advik shrugged and turned to Vineet. “Yeh toh bas apna style hai, Vineet. or is chidkulli Anvi ko samajhna to mushkil hi hai.”

Anvi glared at advik and said. "Tu chidkulla, teri hone wai biwi chudkulli agli baar se mujhe aisa kaha to jubaan kheench lungi teri..Samjha! huh"

Vineet laughed loudly. “ Are shant ho jao anvi ye to bas majak kar rha tha or vaise bhi Tum dono ki to baat hu alag hai jhagadte bhi ho to pyaar se.. hmm”

Anvi replied in a rude way. "kya..? Pyaar..? or vo bhi is begairat insaan se..huhh kabhi nahi"

"Accha baba samjh gya ab gussa thanda karo" Vineet said while giving a small laugh.

Advik turned back to Anvi, still teasing. “Samajhdar ho toh thoda casual attitude apna lo. Tum to aise ladti ho jaise hum courtroom mein ho main to bas casually baat karne aya tha"

Anvi narrowed her eyes, looking at Advik. “Tum mera time waste karne aye ho kya..? I think so.. but me yaha time waste karne nahi ayi hoon. Agar tumhein casual baat karni thi, toh tum yeh invitation na bhejte.” *baigairat Insaan* she murmured softly.

Advik stopped for a moment, realizing her point. "Ouch, theek hai, theek hai. Lekin yeh friendship nahi hai? Friendship me thoda easy hona zaroori hota hai.." he said teasing her "Miss Anvi Ji"

She didn't respond immediately, her eyes scanning the group before she muttered, “Friendship? Tumhare liye har cheez easy hoti hai na, Advik?”

Vineet grinned, sensing the tension. “Aray yaar, kuch bhi ho, hum sab yahan enjoy karne aaye hain. ab chalo, khana khayein.”

Advik nodded, trying to ease the situation. “han Galiyan to kha hi li Chalo ab khana bhi kha lete hai. Samajhdar log samajhdar hote hain, Anvi.”
