—Hatred paralyzes life, love releases it. Hatred confuses life, love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life, love illuminates it.

Navya was asking people if they had seen her friend, Nandini, but nobody had any idea. She was constantly trying her phone number but it was not reachable. She was worried for her now and hoping her to be fine.

"Oh God! Where is this girl? Her phone is also not reachable! Nans, where are you?" Navya scratched her head in frustration.

Mukti, Alya and Dhruv were standing at some distance from her.

"Guys, where is this Nandini?" Mukti asked in frustration.

They were finding Nandini from past forty five minutes and there was no trace of her. Their plan was supposed to be executed till now but without Nandini it wasn't being possible.

Mukti's eyes landed on Navya. She thought to get Nandini's whereabouts from her.

Mukti walked towards Navya whilst her friends followed her.

"Hey? Navya, right?" Mukti spoke.

"Hey!" Navya replied being amused.

"Why suddenly Fab5 was trying to talk?" She was skeptical.

Later, she took few steps forward only to continue the work she was doing earlier, i.e. finding Nandini.

Alya saw her leaving, "Are you ignoring us?" She spoke raising an eyebrow. "That was just a harmless prank. Trust me!"

It made Navya stop at her place.

"Why suddenly Fab5 was being nice to her?" Her brain questioned.

"I thought you might have forget about that ragging incident till now but you are still stuck on it." Mukti spoke with extra cheese in her tone.

"Oh no! Me and Nandini forgive you all long before." Navya smiled. "It just that I'm really worried for Nandini."

Mukti raised on eyebrow in confusion while Alya asked, "Why? What happened?"

"Actually I am finding her from half hour but there is no trace of her. Uska phone bhi not reachable ja rha hai. I don't know where she went." Navya answered.

"Chill girl! She must be somewhere in this crowd. She will come around. Don't worry!" Dhruv tried to calm her down.

"Hmm. I hope, she is fine." She spoke.

"Yeah! She must be! Come and join us. Let's have some fun." Dhruv asked.

"Thankyou." She was happy that Fab5 forget about the things which happened in past and trying to be nice.

"They aren't that bad." Her heart spoke.

Mukti forced a smile looking at Navya.

"Are you out of your mind, Dhruv?" Mukti whispered in Dhruv's ear.

"Why? What happened? What did I do?" He whispered back in amusement.

"Seriously? You told her to join us?" Alya whispered.

"Yeah, I was just being nice so that she won't get to know our real intentions." He replied inaudibly.

"Seriously?" Mukti raised an eyebrow.

"Mukti it's good. Because of this Madhubala, Nandini would come to us directly. Usko dhundna bhi nhi padega." Alya replied back.

"Yeah, right!" Dhruv whispered.
