Ayana's P. O. V

"What on earth is she doing? Didn't she come here to talk to you?" I whisper to Vihaan, stressing on 'you'. He has a sarcastic I-knew-it smirk plastered on his face.

Well, my comment is for none other than Rochelle who is looking up to Rey with a twinkle of awe in her eyes. Krisanne is staring at them or more like Rey with a raised eyebrow. I turn around to look Amber and Ethan haven't walked out.

Probably finishing their breakfast.

Rey is laughing and having fun with Rochelle in his discussion. Krisanne shakes her head and she looks at me. I give her a knowing look and she furrows her brows at me.

This girl may better not have growing interests in the foreign boy.

She walks up to me and Vihaan, and starts whispering, her gaze shifting to the oblivious two every now and then."So? How did it go? She was talking to you when I entered, what were you both discussing?"

I looked at Vihaan too and raised my eyebrows twice in question. He looks at both of us and we continue to look at him, not ready to let the topic go.

He sighs."This is what I get for making two girls my best friends. You guys have to know everything, right?"

Krisanne looks at me and we both smile at each other naughtily before looking back at Vihaan. "Just spill," both us curious girls say together.

"Okay, so we walked out of the kitchen and then..."

Vihaan's P. O. V

"So you're cooking for her now, huh?" she sneers at me as soon as we step into the hall.

She turns and crosses her arms on her chest and I roll my eyes."She's our guest and she's blind. Ayana and Kris were not at home and she was hungry. It was my duty to make her something to eat. So stop making an issue about it."

She sighs at me, sadness clouding her eyes."Why do you do this? You don't attend my calls and then these other girls..."

I shut my eyes and run my fingers on my brows.

Not this shit again.

"Listen Rochelle," I move closer to her and bend till our eyes on level,"I'm saying this to you for the last time. I'm not dating you and I'm not interested in dating you. I care for you but it's only as a friend. So you need to stop behaving as if your my girlfriend and I'm cheating on you."

She sighs, tears clouding her vision. She moves back and just then the door bell rang.

Thank god.

Back to Ayana's P. O. V

Well, who would say that Rochelle just got rejected, again, by the love of her life.

No, I don't hate her. But I don't pity her either. Infact, she makes me very angry.

Rochelle is Vihaan's childhood friend. They have been together since they were in their diapers, way before Krisanne and I became Vihaan's friends.

Vihaan loves her because she has seen all his phases. She knows him inside out. She's been there for him.

But he is not in love with her. He sees her as his sister. He cares for her because she's his family for him and Rochelle is head over heels in love him, apparently.

Vihaan, over the years, has started to hate her because of this. She roams around like she is his girlfriend and she gets jealous over petty stuff. Vihaan doesn't want to hurt her and he's not interested dating, so he avoids most girls.

But in times like these, she has a problem and Vihaan, has very politely and calmly explained to her always, that he doesn't like her.

But still, even after all those times, she chases him.

This girl needs to go and find her self respect because she clearly has lost it.

"It doesn't look like she just got rejected by you, again," Krisanne says my thoughts out loud.

Vihaan smiles sarcastically while I look at him carefully."Nothing new."

Krisanne and I exchange a confused look.

What the hell am I missing?

"Rey seems to be enjoying it too," Krisanne comments, changing the topic. This time I exchange a confused look with Vihaan.

"Yeah," Vihaan adds, nodding slowly. I let it go and change the topic.

"You know Rey reminds me of that old Hindi lyric," I comment with a lazy smile on my face.

Krisanne looks at me, waiting for me to disclose the lyric while Vihaan seemed to have understood exactly what's on my mind. He gets his imaginary guitar out and I chuckle before launching into my concert mood.

"Jabhi mai koi ladki dekhu."
(Whenever I see a girl)

"Mera dil deewana bole."
(My crazy heart starts singing)

"Olay Olay Olay Olay Olay Olay Olay!"

I start and Vihaan continues. Krisanne chuckles and then joins in the chorus, doing her weird dance with it.

Rey and Rochelle look at us with shocked expressions. Rey looks absolutely oblivious to the meaning of the words and the reason why we did it.

The three of us burst out laughing at their cost. Just then Amber and Ethan walk out of the kitchen, curious expressions plastered on their faces.

"What was that?" Amber asks and I try to talk between my laughter.

"Nothing much, just a random concert we felt like performing."

"What did that song mean?" Rey asks us and I smirk at him. Krisanne gives him a pitiful smile while Vihaan rolls his tongue in his mouth.

"Nothing you need to know about."

He looks at Rochelle who just gives him a shrug.

Smart choice.

Vihaan's phone starts to ring and he smiles at the phone happily when he removes it from the pocket.

"No prizes for guessing who's calling him," I whisper to Krisanne and she nods with a tight smile.

"Kabir," Vihaan speaks in the phone after answering it.

I can hear Kabir cursing Vihaan in Hindi from the other end.

"Ha bhai (brother), I'm sorry. I've been busy with college work."

I look around the room to see where Ethan went off to. I find him leaning on the wall, observing everyone around. Our eyes meet and I immediately look away.

This guys manages to remain invisible in a room of people.

Amber has found her way to the sofa and she's sitting there, deep in thought. Rey is surfing on his phone and Rochelle is listening to Vihaan talk.

Krisanne is also doing the same and I look to Vihaan chuckling.

"Dude! I said I'm sorry. You know about the foreign students right! We've been busy with them settling in and all," he says, still pacing around the room.

I move to the couch fall on the couch next to Amber.

"Ayana here," I whisper to Amber and she nods.

"Why has everyone gone quiet suddenly?" she asks me and I chuckle.

"You have a point there. I am wondering the same thing..."

"Yeah, pretty interesting people,"Vihaan says looking directly at Amber.

His eyes meet mine and he realises I caught him. He looks away and I smirk.

Definitely something cooking there.

He disconnects the call and stuffs his phone in his pocket before announcing.

"Kabir is coming with the gang."

Just great.

**********************

A/N - Firstly, I want to say sorry to all the non-Indians reading my story. I have tried my best to avoid Hindi because it's not understood everywhere and I will continue to use it minimally.

The reason I had to use it here is for the authenticity. The sudden concert outburst is a common thing in Indian group of friends, so I just had to add it.

It's our first language here and the characters not using it at all is unauthentic. So please forgive me :)

Also, sorry for the typos :)

Vote and comment please :)

Thanks for reading and keep doing it ahead.

Love you guys.
