Aarushi's POV
We left for college. Sameeksha was looking sad, and we knew the reason. "C'mom dude, wapis aake mil lena" I said. She smiled and nodded.

We reached college. After the morning registration we went to Darshan Sir's class.

We were waiting outside the Sports Hall when Natasha came. "Nats! How are you man?" Sam asked. "Good...tum log btao" She asked. "Ham bhi thik h" I replied.

"Oyee!" Someone called. We turned. It was Darshan Sir. "Change krlo sab, I'll be right back!" He said throwing the keys of changing rooms. Natasha caught them.

She opened boys and girls' changing rooms.

We got changed and went in the hall.

Darshan Sir was sitting on a bench, waiting for us.

"Ok people, have a seat please" He said when everyone was there. We sat on the floor.

"Today we're gonna play badminton. Lets practice serving first" He said. We nodded. "Pick your rackets and shuttlecocks" He said. We picked them.

"Sir doubles khelne h ya singles?" Diksha asked. He thought for some seconds. "4 log doubles me khelo aur do singles me" He said. We nodded. Sameeksha and Natasha played against Karthik and me while Dushyant Bhaiya played against Diksha.

Natasha was standing in the left service court. "Love-love...your serve" I said to Natasha. She nodded and took the shuttle.

She weirdly threw the shuttle in the air and started swinging the racket like a sword. "Natasha kya hua? Thik ho na?" Darshan Sir asked. We burst in a laughter.

"Woh...mujhe...serve krna nhi aata" Natasha replied. "Wait..." Sir said and went to her.

"Okk look" He said. Natasha looked at him. "To pehle shuttle ko apne index finger aur thumb se pakro, eye level pe. Fir usko chodo aur racket ko swing krke hit krdo...and...done!" He said serving. "Now you do it" He said giving the racket to Natasha.

Natasha grip the rachet but was still unsuccessfull. He took a deep breath. "Ruko" He said and got close to her. He stood behind her hand held her hand. He showed her how to serve. She was blushing like hell!

We chuckled.

"Goooood!!" Sir said as the shuttle that Natasha hit reached the other side of the court.

We played for ten more minutes and then the lesson finished.

We left for home.

Sumedh's POV
I was missing Sameeksha...not a bit but too much! Why? Ahh, some questions are so stupid, you kind of know the answer but still don't want to admit it.

Was I...naah...

"Sameeksha...kab aa rhi ho yaar!? Please jaldi aao na" I whispered to myself.

Someone rang the door bell. I ran and opened the door. Sameeksha!! Finally! Happiness was clear on my face. "Itna khush to DID k finals me bhi nhi hua tha..." I thought.

"Kucch kaha aapne?" She asked. I slightly shook my head. She reads my mind man! How!?

"Sumedh andar aa jae?" Dushyant asked. "Ohh...haan...ofcourse!" I replied.

They chuckled and came in.

I was staring at Sameeksha. I was seeing after six long hours!

She looked at me and immediately lowered her lashes. I smiled.

"Boht miss kiya tumhe" I said. "Haan? Mujhe?" She asked. Naah...padosan ko. Ofcourse tumhe yaar!" I said. She chuckled. Her face became a bit red.

I smiled. She was blushing...like genuinely! What if even she is in...naah...and why am I adding that 'even'!? I'm not in love with her! Puh-leez! It's nothing like that Sumedh!

Sameeksha changed her clothes and opened her books. "Yeh kya?" I asked. "Ek assignment complete krna h" I said. "What?" I asked shockingly.

"Isme itna shock hone wali kya baat h Sumedh? Assignment h...school ka kaam h, krna hi hoga" She said. "Yaar mere saath time kab spend kroghi?" I asked. "Huh?" I said. "Umm...ahh...I...I mean mujhe baate krni thi tumse" I said. "Yeh khatam krne dijie, fir dher saari baate krenghe hmm?" She asked.

I nodded dissapointingly.

Aarushi's POV
It was dinner time. Karthik, Sumedh and Diksha came and sat on the dining table. Karthik sat infront of me. I was eating when his foot his my leg. I looked at him. Everyone was busy having dinner.

He signed to meet him after dinner. I shook my head. He gritted his teeth. I smiled and nodded.

He winked. I smiled and lowered my lashes, looking at my plate.

He again hit my leg. I looked at him. He made a pout. I smiled and blushed.

Suddenly he looked down and started eating.

"Sab khana khaa rhe h mujhe kisi ne bulaya bhi nhi?" Bhaiya asked. I burst in a laughter. So he stopped all that because Bhaiya came.

"Kya hua, hame bhi btado ham bhi thoda hasle" Sumedh said. "Nhi kucch nhi...ek purani baat yaad aa geyi" I said.

Everyone had dinner and then went to their respective rooms. I was walking through the corridor.

"Mene tumhe bulaya tha vese" I heard a voice. I turned and saw Karthik.
