Its been a month since the second semester of bba started , this whole month was full of surprises for Shivani , and full of enjoyment for Kritvi and Samhit , they are back to their mischievous nature but a litle bit carefull this time , which have two reasons behind it , one obviously being their elder brother , who is not around most of the time but made sure to keep an eye on them , meanwhile the other reason is Shivani their new friend , a complete different person than them , at first they befriended her just casually, however during this one month the cousins have realized that she might not match their vibe and nature , but she is the first true friend of them , they both were used to be surrounded by fake friends , some were with them due to their family fame , some for their own benefits , faking to act like their friends . Kritvi and samhit both knew their former friends true colors but chose to ignore it , but with Shivani they feel as if its first time they are actually knowing what true friend is , Shivani is not one of those who don't care what they do , she stops them , she even scold them if they are over the line , her thinking process is unique, her statement have deep meaning , showing them different perspectives which never existed before , Shivani has made a space in the cousins heart , as a friend they want for whole life .
On the other hand , Shivani totally unaware of all these , is waiting for the day Samhit and Kritvi would get fed up and start distancing from her ,as back in her mind she knows how huge the difference is between her and them , however despite the difference there has not been a single day they let her feel it , they will ask her to join them for lunch everyday , and each time she will refuse , and when weekends come they will ask if she will hang out with them and that time also she would deny , at first she didn't felt bad for refusing the cousins , but in this one month the cousins have also made their place in her life , its her first hand experience in friendship , and she don't know how to manage it , she don't know what friends are supposed to do , she thought her constant denial with stop the cousins but that never effected them , they will ask her , she will say no , they will go have lunch and when they enter the classroom they are again her friends , as if they don't mind if she accompany them or not , if she hang out with them or not , too stubborn to give up .
" Shivanii !! " she flinched as she was pulled out of her self talking session , raising her eyes she looked and find Kritvi and Samhit glancing at her with concerned look , as her eyes roamed around she found no one except the two in the class
" Where were you lost Shivani ? " , Kritvi asked her tilting her head a bit , and Shivani just shake her head saying , " Its nothing . "
" Ohh , okay , I just wanted to ask if you could explain this topic to me , please . " she requested giving Shivani puppy eyes .
" I am not sure , Kritvi but we can discuss it . Is that fine with you ? " Shivani said reading the topic name ,
" Yup more than fine to me . ", she agreed to Shivani , and shift close to her . While Samhit sat at the corner studying some other subject . After fifteen minutes Samhit stand up from his seat
Kritvi lets go to canteen sis , lunch time will be over in 30 mins,
Both Shivani and Kritvi looked at him , and Kritvi also packed her bag and stood to leave , but before that the cousins looked at Shivani who waved at them tell them to go with a genuine smile .
In canteen
The scene indifferent, usual as everyday , everyone stealing glances of the four boys , seated around a table in the corner , Rudransh tapping his feet , waiting for his cousins to arrive, he was about to call Samhit but before he could they rushed to the table taking seat , Infront of Rudransh who squinted his eyes glaring at the two , waiting for them to tell what knew nuisance they created that they are late ,
" Sorry bhai we were trio studying with our friend . "
Said Samhit taking some food from his tray , a scoff left Rudransh's mouth hearing him , even though he could see his cousin is not lying , but asked anyway
" You both and studying don't go well in one sentence , lil cousins. "
" He is telling truth bhai . ", Kritvi pouted hearing her brother mocking them
" I know my sister its just hard to digest , why suddenly have you both become like normal students , what is the reason wild monkey's turned domestic. "
" Bhaiiiii , I will complain to bua "
" Bhaiiiii , I will complain to mami "
Both whined , Rudransh just rolled eyes at their drama
" Do whatever you want , but at least tell me the reason behind this change . " , Rudransh asked once again , crossing his arms.
" Our friend bhai . ", both said together with a sulking face , not liking him calling them monkey. While the four boys stayed quite for them to tell further
" Whenever we decide to prank someone or have fun , she would tell us about others perspective and somehow explained us that we should not trouble just anyone . "
" Yes bhai , she says we don't know what a person is going through in their personal life , that we don't know what we do just for fun might effect someone more that we think . " , kritvi added
" She says everyone has right to do fun , to enjoy , but not by trobling others , and that's why we decided to not mess with someone we don't know . ",
Samhit completed and him and Kritvi nodded at the end , when both looked up , the four boys gazing at them with wide eyes filled with surprise , amusement and curiosity , listening about someone unknown , impressed by the maturity and so understanding nature of a girl the cousins mentioned .
The unknown girl has gotten unintentional attention of Rudransh , she has been a small topic on the table almost everyday , he don't know why but he wants to see , want to know this girl who is nothing like people these days , in one month he had come to know that this new friend of his cousins is too awkward to exit the class , she don't like crowds, which is not bad , but too unusual for a person living in the era where everyone is greedy for fame , for power, for others to know them , acknowledge them .
at night
sunaina , rudransh's mother come to call him for dinner. she called him , but didnt got any reply. stepping further in the room , she saw him sitting on the edge of bed , zoned out .
" Where are you lost beta ? " Rudransh felt his mother's soft touch , lightly creasing his hair something happened in college ? " , she asked , sitting beside him .
" Nothing maa , just random things" he lied knowing well his mother catch it , still he choose to lie , his mother left, to do something .
Where as his thoughts again went to that unknown girl , his cousins' s friend . Its been 1 and a half month , each day his cousins will somehow find a way to mention her , talk about her , tell something new about her , well nothing about her is extraordinary or interesting as rocket science , she is not even some mysterious girl , but somehow m/l 's mind goes to her , he find himself eager to know more about the girl whose face he hasn't seen yet , he don't know what to call it , he don't know why , but a feeling lingers in his heart telling him that if he meet her , she will not be a passer or some random girl he will meet and that's it , he don't want to address , at least not now , about how his body reacts whenever she is mentioned , he wants to let out about these thing to someone but how could he , what if its just some illusion or something , what if one day he meet her and all this curiosity, interest will vanish , but what if -
" Ohh goddd ! ! !" ,
He grumble rolling over his bed , he can't fathom himself to complete that thought , it not like he is afraid or something , its just he don't want to flow in these thoughts and invest feelings , he has always been clear that he will only be emotionally invested when it's the girl destined for him , and this unknown girl is the first one to make him feel this way , even the girls who persuade him , weren't able to snatch 0.1% of his attention and here a girl he hasn't known he hasn't met , leave that he don't even know her name , have messed up his mind like no one else ever did ,
And with these thoughts and messed up mind he slept .
