Hey guys….
Nandini takes a deep breath and looks towards elites who are eagerly waiting for her to confess…
Nandini:ohk..so I wanna confess that….I am able to overcome my fear and can play music again…
She said this in one go with closed eyes….
All look at her surprised and happily…
Sanky:Chotiii….
Nandini:I am sorry bhaiyu…I know I should have told you this before only…I am sorry…
Swara:shona.. atleast listen to him…
Sanky went and hugged her tight…
Sanksar:I am soo happy that you overcame your fear…
All started talking..but Cabir was a little confused…
Cabir: but choti why were you not able to even touch the Veena yesterday…
Nandini starts sweating on remembering something….Ragini goes and hugs her to calm her down and other nod no to Cabir…
Laksh:oh come on…Cabiraa let the Veena be… at least she can play other instruments…rgt choti???
Nandini nods:yaa except Veena ans Sitar…
Swara looks deeply towards Nandini…Sanskar interrupt her thoughts…
Sanskar:what happened sweetheart…let go we need to warm up…
Swara nods and join others…
Manik goes near Nandini and says: Listen…
Nandini sees towards him…
Manik: I know I am nobody to say this but…still I consider them as my friends and…I know that they matter a lot to you and are really important in your life…did you notice the happiness and glow on their face when they got to know you got music back…you this already but I am again saying this to remind you you are like their life…most important person…just think a boy who came few days ago saw their pain seeing you dull all the time…for their sake can’t you try to be normal.. you know what when life gives hundred reasons to breakdown and cry, you should show life that you have a million reasons to smile and laugh…and among them your friends and family are one of them…try to be happy at least for them…when you breakdown even they breakdown more than you for not able to help you…
Saying this he smiles at her and leaving Nandini in deep thoughts….
Later other students also join the ground to witness the game…the Red teams captain was Soha and Blue teams Captain was Nandini…
Nandini:so..guys we have to win and show this Soha her place…got it…
All nod smiling…
Manik(whispers to Navya): Navu anything wrong between her and Soha???
Navya giggles and nods…
Navya:Soha tried to contact her brother…that too through her..a thing that she hates the most…
Manik:why???
Before Navya could answer Ragini interrupts her…
Ragini: shona are we gonna play as always???
Nandini:No..for a change I want him(Pointing towards Manik) to be around me…as for cover up…
All nodded…
Manik frowns as she does not take his name… but later ignores it…
Soha comes towards them…
Soha:ohh…so the so called elites are already here… I thought you all will show tantrums to even play the match by coming late…
Nandini:oh come on Miss.Soha everybody here knows who shows tantrum…
Ragini(mimics):ouch…sir its paining in my leg… oh god why did you make me so delicate…
Navya come and mocks:if god has made you delicate…why do you come and play this game go…go and complete your so called beauty sleep…
Soha get irritated and goes near Sanskar and tries to cling on his shoulder…but Swara comes and pushes her…
Swara:Miss.Soha it would be good for you to go..and plan strategy for your team…rather than clinging to MY friends…and it would be better if you stay away from them…or else you better know me…(she said pointing her finger towards her)
Soha gulps seeing her anger and leaves but before leaving she passes by Manik and whispers:Any ways Manik you are looking hot in this Bermuda shorts…(and winks at him)
Manik feels uncomfortable by this but gives an awkward smile…
As soon as she leaves Nandini comes and stands in front of him and points her finger at him…
Nandini:hey Mr. If you want to play with us or be friends with us…you better stay away from.. that lizard…DO YOU GET THAT???
Manik nods…Nandini goes and stands near the mid circle…as soon as she leaves other let out a small laugh…
Manik: she is so confusing and also dominating yaar…
Laksh:this is the only thing that did not change…till now…
Swara warning tone:Mr.Sanskar Maheshwari… if I see her clinging on you again…you better start finding another girl for yourself… no no no better option dig a grave for yourself..got that..YOU ARE ONLY MINE…
Sanskar smiles at her possessiveness and jealously…and without anybody’s notice he kisses on her cheek..she looks at him and blushes…
Other elites and Manik:we saw that…
Both Swasan blushes this time…
Laksh:bhai..do your romance in room not here…
Sanskar unknowingly:what romance Lucky…she only let’s me hug and kiss on cheeks…just think I did not even have my first kiss till now…
He realized what he said and is embarrassed..
Swara:sanky you can have it when did I refuse.. but but only after I turn 17… ohk??
Sanksar nods obediently…other smile at their cuteness and understanding towards each other…
AD sir comes there all the students gather around him…
AD:so students…I have a surprise for all of you…but I will tell you after the match is over… so all the best to both the teams…
All shout thank you sir…after all dismisses only AD and Elites and Manik are left…
AD:soo…elites are you ready to win..
All nod…and he goes from there…
The game starts..Manik is always near Nandini…(guys I am not elaborating the game)
The last shot Nandini throws the ball in the air near the basket and Manik does a dunk and they win…in excitement Manan hug each other…and on realization they leave each other and are embarrassed..
Manik:I am sorry…
Nandini nods others come and hug each other…and the elites do a group hug…Nandini slowly breaks the hug…
Nandini:hey come join us…
Manik is elated by this and happily joins the hug…others also get happy seeing Nandini trying to be like before…Manik is the happiest…

Nandini gets happy listening this and thinks to trust him…
Nandini forwards her hand:friends???
Manik was once again surprised and elated… he nods and shakes his hand..
Manik:sure…and smiles at her…
They share a small cute eye lock which was broken by Soha who comes in the room without knocking…
Soha:Manik!!! Hii.. .

Navya:she is asking you that don’t you have manners without knocking…how can you enter in someone’s room..especially boys room..
Soha:ohh..don’t you have manners..even you enter their room without knocking…
Swara:that’s because they are our friends Infact best friends…and we have that right…
Soha:even I can Manik is my friend…
Nandini looks towards Manik in shock..Manik nods no…Nandini gets very angry…Manik was helpless…
Cabir:and who said that??
Soha:Manik…ask him is he not my friend…
Manik was getting death glares from the girls..
Manik:Miss.Soha…I think you are mistaken… I never was friend with you…
Nandini gives a winning smile to Soha…
Laksh:and who would like to be your friend..you just stick to boys…like..like yeah like a lizard on the wall…

Soha pointing her finger at him:you..

Swara smiles and extends her hand and Cabir and Laksh join them…they realize that someone is staring them…
Manik sees Nandini standing there with a cute pout…he hesitates to extend his hand…Cabir sees his hesitation and ops his arm and Nandini joins them…
Sanskar comes out of the washroom and sees them hugging..makes a fake cough…Manik opens his arm and Sanskar joins them…
