Next Day
"Where did you go yesterday, Khush? You know, how much I searched for you? You didn't even picked my calls! You went back even before I finished my class and when I came to your home last evening, aunty told you slept early. Even Aru was awake at that time! Are you alright? " Arnav ran through the college corridor and held Khushi's arm bombarding her with questions
"Arnav.. wo ... I was not feeling well yesterday.. so..I went early.." She didn't meet his eyes
"Arnav? Not Arnie? What happened to you?" He frowned
"Arnie.. I'm okay now" she finally faked a smile towards him
"Sure?" He asked still frowning
"Very Sure" her bright smile convinced him
"Good. I wanted to say something.." Arnav started with a low voice, she nodded expecting the next
"Remember .. the pair selection from each college?" Hearing him, she frowned and nodded as yes
"So.. Sonia, Ronit Sir's daughter was selected for it, on recommendation .. so the guys were trying to impress her. And she put a condition that the one who without moving away from her eye sight, manages to gift her roses will be her partner.. you know, I so wanted to be in this intercollege competition.. that is why I asked you to bring the roses" He told in a calculative tone
"Competition?" Khushi was flabbergasted
So it was all, just a Play!
And the whole night, she wasted her tears for Nothing!
"Arnie.. all that was a play? And what's so special about this Competition?" She chided
"What's so special? Khush.. do you even know, what's the prize money.. I can invest it on my future business.. I won't need to ask for bhai's money" He said dramatically
