Loud distinct voices followed her as she pushed the door open, the warm air welcomed her, engulfed her in a long hug that started suffocating her, she stopped in front of her locker, entered the code and opened it, pushing in the separate books, she took her lecture book and shut the locker.

Turning, she started walking towards her class, and like everyday she was stopped in her way.

"Na na na, naira." Liha took her name in a rhythmic manner, and it boiled Naira's blood.

"C'mon, goody two shoes. Leave studying and have some fun." Liha mocked her while the girls standing with Liha laughed.

"Well, I'm better a goody two shoes then to have a slutty reputation like yours." Naira spitted back.

She sure was a nerd, never did any fun activity, always a boring kind. But she wasn't an introvert, shy and timid, instead she was an extrovert, bold and gutsy. She always took stand whenever the wrong was going on.

Naira and Liha used to be very good friends a year back, Liha was a spoiled brat, sassy, and blunt to no extent. Always getting involved in bad activities and using Naira as her excuse. Naira tried her best to make her understand but it was all in vain. Having enough of her, Naira backed off and broke this friendship. It hurted Liha's ego and she made Naira her enemy and everyone knew she was a venom.

"You bloody bi-

"Oh, no, no! Dare you say and see what I do to you." Naira said seething her teeth.

"You called me a slut , right? Now, wait until I make your goody good reputation a bad, and your decency, my foot! I'll show you what a slutty reputation is." Liha challenged her.

"Hm, you done? Now, excuse me, I've a class to catch up." Naira said not caring about her warnings, it wasn't the first time. While Liha gritted her teeth, this time it was going to be an practical act.

"That little bitch, now I'll show her the real revenge." Liha huffed while walking towards basketball court.

"Chill up, Liha. Why are you caring so much? Just let it go." Alina said.

"This time I won't let it go. I need to teach her a lesson."

"She's nothing in front of you. Look at you, you're dating the most wanted boy of this college, heck the most wanted boy of this entire state. What else you want?" Alina stated and Liha smiled, she surely was dating a piece of cheese.

By the time, they reached basketball court. It seemed like the match had already started.

________________________

Hooting, shouting, screaming, all could heard from the audience. Just one name, and they were taking it as a life saving mantra.

Tapping the ball on ground, with a flexible grip, that was a proof that he was a pro at this game.

Sweat drops fell from the few strands of his hairs to his nose, then to his throat. With the sunlight, his sweat was shining.

"Kartik, Kartik, Kartik." The cheering got louder as he got near to the goaling stand.

Escaping through the crowd, he stood at the goaling stand. Everyone stopped around him, eyes on his every move.

He jumped on his feet, the ball flying high and then falling straight into the ring.

And it was a goal!

His friend, Viyaan came running towards her, huffing from playing the match.

"Congratulations man, I don't get how you change the game at last second, incredible!" Viyaan said.

"My mate, you see, thats why the only name to be heard was mine, not yours." He smirked.

Kartik Goenka, the heartthrob of his college, the most wanted bachelor of the entire state, the only heir of Goenka industries. The chilled guy, but no one knows the real him. They all saw his carefree side but don't know his affairs with his father.

"I knew it, my boyfriend gonna win it like everytime." Liha said as she hugged Kartik, well he was the most wanted guy Liha was talking about, and apparently was her boyfriend. Viyaan rolled his eyes at her.

Kartik pulled apart and kissed her standing in the middle of court.

"If you're done with your romance, can we please go to coach? He was calling on us." Viyaan said tapping his foot on ground.

"Oh, yeah. I forgot. See you later, babe." Kartik said to Liha and started walking ahead with Viyaan.

"Opponent team clearly challenged us before going. I think it gonna be hard to win next time." Viyaan said.

"Kartik Goenka haven't learnt to lose." As Kartik said, Naira turned and saw his side profile. She was quite aware of this Kartik named trouble.

"Huh, Kartik Goenka, my foot. Self obsessed." She muttered, but audible enough for him to hear it.

Kartik's head snapped at her, who had turned her back and was walking now.

Bag hanging on both shoulders, clad in pink sweatshirt and denim jeans, wearing white sneakers.

Kartik stared at her back, as she kept walking, he probably never saw her before, or maybe he did, only if she could let him see her once.
