"Why were you staring his friend like that?" Riddhima inquired Ishani, irritation evident in her voice; while walking to the college garden to wait for the next class to begin.

"Woh, I..Actually..umm..I.." Ishani stammered, not knowing the reason herself.

"Why are you stammering yaar? C'mon Speak up.. "

"Yaar.. I think I love him!" Ishani exclaimed.

"You What??" Shock would be an understatement for Riddhima.

"I love him" Ishani said sheepishly.

"Seriously?" Riddhima was not able to believe. 

In response, Ishani nodded her head, blushing.

"Instantly?"

Ishani again nodded her head.

"OMG Ishani.. Tujhe koi aur nhi mila tha? Tujhe uska naam bhi pata hai?"

(OMG Ishani.. Didn't you get anyone else? Do you even know his name?)

Riddhima asked while settling down on a bench along with Ishani.

"Nhi pata yaar.. Though Vansh has called out his name a number of times, but I didn't hear."

Ishani told innocently.

"Yaar.. I can't believe. Even Maggi is not made this instantly. And you are falling in love? Are you serious?"

"Now what can I do yaar.. I've fallen badly."

"Fallen?"

"In love with him!" Ishani blushed. 

"Now what?" Riddhima asked, feeling annoyed with her shy behavior. 

"Now, you go and tell him this." Ishani  said, excitedly.

"What the hell! I should go and tell him? What will I say? 'Actually, my best friend has instantly fallen in love with you and--' " Riddhima said irritatedly in an imitated voice.

"Riddhima !''

"Yaar.. What can I do? Ok wait.. Don't be upset. I'll first let you know his name and get familiar with him.. Then you can confess it yourself.. Okay?" Riddhima said with a smile. She is there to solve her best friend's problems!

"Okay!" Saying that, Ishani hugged Riddhima, blushing furiously.

~~~~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡♡~~~~~~~

On the other hand, Vansh and Angre were sitting in the canteen, discussing about the same matter. 

"Are you seriously in love with her?" Vansh asked Angre, not believing how instant can love be!

"Of'course yaar. I love her!" Angre said as a matter-of-fact. 

 "Oh my god! Angre.. I can't believe!" Vansh  said. He and Riddhima had a conversation for just about a minute or so and till the time Angre stares her friend and fall in love !

"So what? That's not my problem if you don't believe. I love her and that's final." Angre said, firmly.

"Okay. Wait bro. So are you going to tell her this soon?"

"No no.. Not soon.. I don't even know her name right now." Angre said confidently.

"You don't even know her name? Ok do what you wish!" Vansh said, while getting up.

"Hey Vansh.. Are you not going to help me out?"Angre said while pulling Vansh down to his chair.

"How can I help you, Sir?" Vansh said, sarcastically. 

"Go to her friend.. Riddhima.. And tell her this.."

"You love Riddhima? I thought you love her friend!" Vansh replied, an unknown feeling of possessiveness gripping him.

"No I love her friend only." Angre said and then continued. "You go and talk to Riddhima and inquire everything about her friend and then come and tell me.."

 "What?! No way! I'm not going to talk to Riddhima...!" Came the stubborn reply from Vansh.

"Tu mere liye itna bhi nahi  karega?" (You will not do this much for me?)

Angre sniffed, acting as if he was about to cry; his emotional drama full-on!

"Stop it! Okay I'll talk to her." Vansh said helplessly.

"You are the best, bro!"

~~~~~~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡♡~~~~~~

Soon, their next class started, with Vansh and Riddhima planning how to talk to each other and Angre and Ishani thinking about each other, unaware of the reciprocation of their love.

And in the same way the next class.

~~~~~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡~~~~~

"Riddhima, yaar.. I'm really sorry.. There are some friends of my mom coming home, so mom has called me home earlier. Sorry, I'll not be able to drop you home. Just manage for today. This will never happen ever after.." Ishani said, apologetically.

"Its ok yaar.. No need for sorry.. Its absolutely ok.. I'll go home by a cab.. Don't worry.." Riddhima said comforting her.

"Ok then bye baby.. I have to hurry up!" Ishani said hurriedly and started her scooty. 

"Bye!" Riddhima said.

~~~~~~~~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡~~~~~~

"Taxi! Taxi!" Riddhima called out while waving her hand to get a taxi.

"Riddhima?" She heard her name and turned back.

"Vansh?" Riddhima said, "You here?"

"Where is your friend?" Vansh asked, "isn't she dropping you home?"

"No.. Actually she had some work so I told her to go..And from past fifteen minutes, I'm calling for a taxi but not even a single one is stopping.."

"Oh.. You come with me. Our destination is same.." Vansh said with a smirk, making Riddhima nervous.

"No no, I'll soon catch up a taxi."

"Shy?" Vansh asked, making her all the more nervous.

"Who? Me?" Riddhima tried her best to not to let her nervousness cover her confidence.

"Yes you"

"No, not at all shy. I just don't want you to favor me." Riddhima said. 

"Excuse me..I'm not favoring you.. Just a friendly help!"

"Really? Are we friends?"

"I don't know. Chalo, if we are not friends.. Lets become."

Vansh said with a smile.

Riddhima looked at him with a hesitant smile.

"Friends?"

Vansh asked and stretched his hand forward.

Riddhima took a deep breath and took forward her hand to shake it with his, "Friends" she said.

And they both shared a warm-smile.

"So.. should we go?"

Vansh asked.

"Yeah. But is it ok for you?"

Riddhima asked. She was not very sure of him.

"We are friends right? Then how would taking you home affect me?"

"Right.. but.."

"Hey relax. I'm just telling you to come home with me, not anything else."

Vansh said, biting his lower lip mischievously.

"Shut up!"

Riddhima retorted, while a stint of red rushed up her cheeks.

"You are so girly, Riddhima."

Vansh said when he saw Riddhima blushing.

"So what? I am a girl only!"

 "Oh I forgot!" 

"Haww!"

"What haww? Actually it is the first time a I made a friend who is a girl.. " 

Vansh said.

"Oh.."

"So.. Can we go now?" Vansh said, "I am too hungry."

"Ok lets go. I am also very hungry. And Auntie also must be waiting for us.." 

Riddhima said, while letting out a tired yawn.

"Come." Vansh said, while leading her towards his bike.

~~~~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡♡~~~~~~

"I hope you'll not make me fall." Riddhima said while settling herself at the back of Vansh on his bike. 

"I can only make girls fall in love with me .. Not off my bike.." 

Vansh said, chuckling. 

 "You are such a flirt, Vansh!"

"Now Ready.Set.Go!!" Vansh screamed while kick-starting his bike. He was way to excited while riding a girl on his bike.

Riddhima giggled and shook her head.

.."It was the beginning of their journey together"..
