Kabir cuts the call and leave from Igloo Dubbing studios.
Meanwhile, at Pooja’s house, no one has spoken to her since the minute, Kabir left the house. Ritu keeps her face dull and didn’t talk to anyone. Ishani and Mahek are not listening to any of the Pooja’s explanations. Pooja tried her best to convince them, but in vain. Ritu was almost shaken when a guy is about to slap her niece in aggression. Ishani couldn’t contain the fact that Pooja stoop so low to spoil someone’s feeling. Mahek knew about Pooja’s ego, but it has crossed its peak yesterday because of Pooja’s act.
Its afternoon,
No one had breakfast in the morning. Pooja cooks some food. She managed to bring Ishani, Mahek and her chachi to the dining table. Pooja serves food. The three are looking at the plate and didn’t eat anything.
Pooja – “Ishani, Chachi and Mahek, I have cooked all your favorite food. But you are gazing at the food as if you’re seeing it for the first time.”
Ishani and Mahek stare at Pooja.
Ishani – “Are you really in the mood to eat now after yesterday’s incident? What is your problem, Pooja?”
Mahek – “You are completely unfair, Pooja. If we didn’t obey your words, will you burn us also?”
Pooja – “Oh, just shut up. First of all, Why are you both reacting as if his bike is burnt and can’t able to use it.”
Ishani and Mahek stares.
Pooja – “Relax, It is just a trailer to show how dangerous I am. I just broke the rear-view mirror of his bike.”
Ishani – “Lie…”
Mahek shows the photo of Kabir’s scorched bike to Pooja. Pooja is surprised.
Pooja smirks – “So, it was the reason why he shouts at me. To be honest, I thought he was yelling for mirror. I don’t know about his bike seat and engine damages at all.”
Ishani – “Are you sure?”
Pooja – “Yes. But, I am happy that I provoked his anger yesterday as much as I could.”
Mahek – “You are too cruel and you have hurted a heartbroken guy.”
Pooja – “Whatever it is, he should not have raised his hands on me. So, he deserves that pain.”
Ritu – “What are you thinking Pooja? Is it enough to fulfill your revenge? This is the house where only ladies reside. We were so dignified and safe until yesterday. What if that man again come and do something wrong for you or your cousins?”
Pooja – “Chachi, don’t worry. We are safe and sound even now. I would teach him a lesson so that he won’t come to our house, nor attack my sisters.”
Ishani – “There is no need of that. He is not a sort of guy who would do something cruel.”
Mahek – “Yeah, mom. Ishani is right. Kabir is a good guy.”
Pooja stares at Ishani and Mahek for defending Kabir, where as Ishani and Mahek’s words strengthened Ritu, a little. She advised Pooja not to mess up with other people unnecessarily.
After two hours,
Kabir, in his house, is listening to his favorite songs and sitting on sofa.
His phone beeps and he attends the call. It was from the lady to whom he had spoken some hours ago. He – “Hello…” Receiver lady – “Okay. What is your plan? Which one should we execute first?”
Kabir – “Mine. There is a storeroom like one in our college drama hall which would be inactive now. So, two days later, I am going to lock her in the dark small room. You have to supply me plastic cockroaches, lizards and spiders. She must be frightened after seeing that. Then I am going to use her family members voice in blue tooth speaker.”
She – “Means?”
Kabir – “She is very much fond of her aunt and her friends. She could not imagine a danger happening for them. So, I am going to use their voice and edit it. While playing in bluetooth audio, it would be like they are screaming for help and I am attempting to kill them. As the audio is 3D, it would look so real.”
She – “How did you get the voice?”
Kabir – “It’s my job. I could do that easily.”
She – “So, she would scream to the hell to save them. But no one would hear outside as the hall is soundproofed. So, you succeed in breaking her down.”
Kabir- “Yes.”
She – “What if she tries to do kill herself out of helplessness or hurt her?”
Kabir – “I won’t let anything happen to her physically. I would present outside the room and whenever I hear or feel something wrong, I enter inside and save her.”
She – “Are you sure?”
Kabir – “I’m a man of my words. Also, I could not see her hurt even though she doesn’t deserve anyone’s care. Even when she injured her hand because of me, I felt guilty for hurting her. But she must deserve a punishment for destroying my bike.”
She – “Bike…”
Kabir – “Yeah, she poured acid on my bike and scorched it and the glass, engine and other parts were smashed. When I about to confront, she didn’t even regret for that but gives a smirk. She is such an egoistic lady. Its good that you are also studying in the same college as me.”
She – “Oh ok. I will help you.”
Kabir cuts the call.
He rests his head on the sofa hearing the radio. But suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted as Pooja’s innocent face when he asked a question in the lecture hour and when she suppressed her scream comes to his mind. He tried to fade the thoughts away, but couldn’t. So, he goes to the physical workout to not focus on Pooja’s innocence mixed cruel face.
Pooja’s house,
In study room, Ishani and Mahek are busy in writing their notes for the exams. Pooja enters the room and locked the room. She folds her fist and crumbles her fist on the wall. Ishani and Mahek are shocked and tried to control her. Ishani – “What happened to you, Pooja?” Pooja releases herself from their hold and starts laughing louder rolling on the floor as if she breathe nitrous oxide. Mahek and Ishani are more confused than being shocked. Ishani to Mahek – “I think, Pooja is high now.” Mahek – “I never thought, Pooja would become a mental because of Kabir.”
Pooja pulls Ishani and Mahek to fall down. She takes the phone from her purse and gives it to Ishani. Ishani looks at her phone surprised. “What are you doing with my phone, Pooja?” Pooja puts her hand on Ishani and Mahek’s neck and says, “I was discussing with that buffoon how to punish me.”
Ishani and Mahek look at her confused. Mahek – “I think, her screw has loosened. We have to consult a psychologist for Pooja.”
Pooja – “I am serious. You both have to answer my questions. You both are longing for Kabir’s number, right?”
Ishani – “No, Pooja. We both don’t have any friendship or relation with Kabir. We are just flirting about him to provoke your anger and of course, he deserves that complimentary flirts too.” (winks)
Mahek – “Yeah. It is just a part of provoking you. It is just our usual temporary tempting for a hunky guy. We don’t have interest in talking with him.”
Pooja – “Provoking! How dare you both?…. Okay, I’ll beat you later. Kabir called Ishani today morning. I am sure that it was Kabir by his speaking manner, but it was not his voice. I recorded the call and when I am hearing it, my voice is also changed. How?”
Ishani – “Oh, voice change is actually because of using a app called Magic Call and used Shreya Ghosal’s voice for testing it. We forgot to deactivate the voice so your voice is heard as Shreya’s voice to Kabir. But we don’t know about Kabir. He too might have used the app to call you not to get caught.”
Pooja – “How foolish he is! He is discussing with me to set up a prank for me itself.”
Pooja discloses the plan Kabir set for prank her. Ishani and Mahek don’t know what to react.
Pooja continues, “And I’m the biggest fool of all, I discussed with him about punishing himself.”
Mahek – “Means?”
Pooja – “I liked his revenge demand and wished to help him but with a price. I asked his help to punish Kabir. While we were discussing, I came to know that he is a national level Boxer. I thought to make a deal with him to fight with Kabir as a challenge in Boxing Club with a condition of, if he loses, he should kneel down and seek apology to me. But after few minutes, he said about the bike, then I confirmed it was Kabir.”
Ishani – “So, you are taking Kabir’s help to defeat Kabir in the boxing match. He takes your help to punish yourself in the dark room and you are going to supply cockroaches to scare yourself.”
Ishani sighs.
Mahek – “Are we fools or they are fools? It’s a weird form of the Alliance. Both go and get treated in mental hospital.”
Pooja – “Just shut up. You three are thinking that, we three bunked the class as usual, but it is because I had to meet him at 3pm.”
Mahek – “Oh, you are going to dating by telling lies.”
Pooja – “Shut up. It is to discuss the plans. If I go there now, it is embarrasement now.”
Ishani – “But you made your perfectionist partner to bunk his classes.”
Pooja – “He is not my partner… You both are craving for him.”
Ishani – “I meant crime partner to plot and exploit yourself. But why are you over-reacting now?Are we saying that you are his dance partner for Ang laga de song?”
Mahek – “Ishani, seriously! I can’t imagine… Pooja is wearing short dress exposing her hip and waist and Kabir is shirtless and touching Pooja in that song….Ang laga de re… Mohe rang laga de re…. Ang laga de re….Mohe rang laga de re…”
Ishani and Mahek breaks into laughter. Pooja imagines such situation and closes her eyes in disgust. Pooja – “Chi… You both are seeing too many unwanted movies. Yuck!”
Mahek – “How is that song, didi?”
Pooja removes slipper and throws at both. Ishani and Mahek catches it and throws at her hitting her. Pooja takes pillow and throws at them and moves out of the room furiously. Ishani and Mahek shares a hi-fi and hug.
Kabir’s house,
Kabir gets a call from the Dean of the college. He attends the call.
Dean – “Kabir, are you fine now? Why did you take leave? I am feeling so sad for your bike, dear.”
Kabir – “I am not feeling well, sir. Thats why, I took sir. Don’t worry about the bike, sir. I can manage it.” (He says in a dull tone)
Dean – “Actually dear, I have found the people who have exploited your bike.”
Kabir – “Is it true, sir?” (surprised)
Dean – “Yeah, Three boys from Chemistry department is the reason for this. They were ragging other boy but he resisted them. Out of ego, they thought to exploit his bike but accidentally your bike was mistook for his one. I have collected the fine amount. You can collect it tomorrow, son.”
Kabir – “Okay sir.”
He hangs up the call.
“So, it was not Pooja who destroyed his bike. I should have controlled my anger on her and must have enquired her well. But I was so outraged to raise my hands on a innocent girl. I have used strong words to her in front of her family members. What is her mom’s reaction after this incident? I am hurting them for a mistake which they haven’t committed. Words cannot be taken back too. Ishani and Mahek are too horrified because of my aggressive behaviour. Even after that, I thought to harm her using her feelings! In fact what is her mistake in all these! She is a short-tempered girl. I might not have thrown money notes on her in the public lab. Because of me, she injured her soft palm and I have created a embarrassing situation for her and her sisters too. How disgusting I am! I know she might have provoked my anger to fulfill her thirst. Even if she destroyed my bike, I should not have created a nightmare for her family ladies,” he regrets and hits his head in the wall.
“I have to ask apology for the cruel thing I have committed.” – He thinks.
Pooja’s house,
A boy (Arjun Bijlani) is standing at the entrance gate and calls the girls and Ritu.
Pooja comes and see him and gets extremely happy – “Shivaandh…”
She calls Ritu, Ishani and Mahek. They are surprised to see him and gets happy.
Ritu – “Why are you standing outside, beta? Aa jao meri shona puttar! (come inside my dear child)”
Before he is about to enter, Pooja hugs him tightly. Ishani and Mahek jump into him to hug him. Instantly, he fell down near the entrance door due to their sudden jump and the girls too fall on him. He even suffocates as three ladies are on his sitting on him than hugging.
Ritu – “Hey, fools! Leave your Shivaandh… Poor Boy might die.”
The girls managed to stand up and followed by Shivaandh
Shivaandh wipes dust from his shirt. Then he looks at the girls who are chuckling at him.
Shivaandh – “Are you bathing daily first of all, looks like you’ve bathed 10,000 years ago? And how could a 75 kg guy could manage the weight of 500 kg. Are you thinking that I am Bahubali? And you are hugging me like this outside. What will neighbours think about us?”
The girls pouts.
The girls in chorous – “Who cares for them, dude? You are our best friend.”
Shivaandh, Ishani, Pooja, Mahek and Ritu laughs.
Pooja – “Okay, come inside my dear ex-boyfriend”
Shivaandh gets inside the house along with the girls.
