"Priya" she heard a voice.
She recognised it.
"Mr. Kapoor" She said. And hugging him more than before.
He hugged her back.
"You're safe" He said.
" Am always safe with you!" She replied back humming.
"Priya" she heard a stern voice.
Her brain reminded her she belonged to a Rajat.
She separated herself from Ram. For that she must do that. At that time.

"Rajat" she mumbled and went to him. He tried to give her a side hug but she wasn't good enough ready for it. Still she gave her in.

"You're ok na baby!?" He asked her.
"Yes." She replied.

Rajat completely neglected everyone around there and took Priya by his arms.
He made her sit.
He was so dumb as to what to do next but Ram was quick enough to order the waiter to get her some water.
Priya silently mouthed a thanks to Ram.
She was hell scared.
On first note, she hadn't had anything from the morning. And second this dance made her dizzy. She wasn't in a position to explain what and how she was feeling.

Ram got her a light dinner. All of her favourites. Though he didn't know what she liked.

The plate was filled with veggie salads, a lemon juice in a tumbler to give her some energy and slices of apple.
It also had a small bowl of ice cream in it.
And that too of all the flavours she loved chocolate and he had correctly got that one.

Ram gave the plate to Rajat.
Rajat got it from Ram and completely ignored him.
Priya saw all of this. She also noticed how much Rajat was focused in this phone though she was not well.

Everyone else were allowed to act normal but he wasn't. But he did act normal as if nothing happened.
On the other hand, Ram who had no reason to be concerned towards her was helping her in every way possible.

When she was eating, Ram made sure her parents were comfortable. And she liked noticing that both Shipra and Sudhir liked Ram a lot. And the way Ram was responding, Might be even he liked them.

Her full attention was centered on Ram.
He was just perfect.

Later,Rajat dropped Priya at her house.
Everyone were busy talking about how much they enjoyed at the party.
Neha and Vikram hooked up together. That's their best part. They found that both had the same kind of taste in almost every matter. They were like best friends within some hours. More interesting facts to get unfolded.

Priya was as usual going to bed.
As her routine, she checked all her whatsapp texts.
"Looking gorgeous" "Divine" were all the replies she had got from her friends for her status.

She changed her DP.
And then she looked on to Ram's DP.
The same picture he has ever had from the time she had saved his number. Maybe 1 week?

"Hope you're alright. Get well soon" she got a text from Ram.
"Thanks" she replied with a smile capturing her lips even without her notice.

Two months later

She was very comfortable now. For they were friends.
Priya and Ram made a perfect team.
They could coordinate very well and the opponent was always in for a toss when it's them.

"Look Mr. Shindla we can't help it" Priya argued.
"She's absolutely right" a voice came. It was Ram. Priya looked at him and smiled.
"As per the figures it's your loss. We can't take anything in. Come Priya let's leave" he said and made way for Priya.
