After that we played Video games in the second floor while Suku slept. Needless to say, Vinnie won. After losing for the third time I gave up on it. Vinnie was still playing.

Pari sent a text when they were about to come back. We quickly woke up Suku hid in the bushes. Once the crowd came we sprinkled some water on us and with a tired expression joined the others.

We went with the others to the mess hall.

"You pulled it off." Pari congratulated. "Even I believed that you were exhausted."

"Hey, we are exhausted!" Vinnie protested."Playing video games is an exhausting work."

She was about to say some thing but a roar of laughter filled the hall. I think the Blue Boy had entered.

"Oh my god!" Somebody exclaimed. Most of the people were busy clicking pictures. How I love social media for now.

"He looks so good!" Some girl said.

But Vihaan just ignored like he was used to it and went to the twins who looked very confused. They talked a bit and then he turned and looked directly at me. I tried to suppress my laughter but perhaps didn't try hard enough. He was still looking at me and went to his table. Finally the people stopped clicking pictures but glances were still thrown at him.

Suku and Vinnie were still laughing when the twins came to us.

"So you guys weren't there in the trekking."

"Is that so?" Vinnie retorted.

"Yes, and so my brother Ved here, thinks that the blue hair was your doing." Vansh said.

"Are you accusing us?" I ask

"Accusing? No, we are showing respect, that trick is an old classic."

"We don't know what you are talking about."

"We had nothing to do with it."

"Well then," Vansh shrugged, "We are still joining you." He said before pulling the chair and sitting.

"Me and my brother are the local pranksters here." Ved said.

"Why don't you guys mark the territory?" Vinnie challenged.

"Because we come in peace. As I said, we are expected to do pranks, you three however are off the hook."

Suku was hardly listening and Pari pretended to be busy on phone, I looked at Vinnie and raised my eyebrows.

"We are neither conforming nor denying the given proposal. We will think and get to you later." She said in her professional voice and we expected them to leave.

"Okay." Vansh said.

"How is this camp going for you?" Ved asked and looked at our obvious expression, "We might not be allies but we can still try to be friends."

"Still try," Vinnie mimics "You should try harder."

"Oh, I can try very hard."

"That's enough brother, how is this camp going?" Vansh cut them off.

"Well one day down but I expect some great stuff here."

"And you just met awesomeness." Ved replied.

"Really? Where? All I can see is a fruitless try to be tolerable."

"Burn" Vansh mocked.

"Oh Shut up!" And the twins began to fight.
