"Remember, anyone can love you when the sun is shining. In the storm is where you learn who truly cares for you."

When an uninvited storm hits, you find yourself sitting on the fence. Because it doesn't give you enough time to decide. Neeksha was facing the same thing. She was not prepared for this storm which knocked her door.

She safeguarded Naina and Pooja, by sending them away for few days. But she forgot that she need a shield too, to protect her. But is it possible for a person like Neeksha, to think about herself before others?

The answer is the condition Neeksha is in. Her scream echoed in the whole corridor, when she lost her consciousness. Not a single soul was there in the campus, who was not shaken with that painful shriek

Alekh and Sameera came running towards her and seeing her lying like a corpse, with a bleeding feet, some scratches on palm, they rushed towards the infirmary, followed by Dean.

But they failed to notice, Ragini standing over there with an evil smirk and for others it was a normal thing. Ragini took few steps carefully towards Neeksha's room, gestured Virat to come out from his hiding and started removing the wire while saying

"Chuhiya ko bas jakhmi karna tha,use jaan se nahi maarna tha virat , tumne itna high voltage current kyun set kiya tha?Agar use kuch ho jaata to?"

Virat gave an impressed look and said

"Dushman se itni mohabbat? Mujhe pata nahi tha aapka dil itna bada hain di."

Ragini gave him a deadly glare and said

"Mohabaat wo bhi us se? Hahahaha bakre ko halal karne se pehle use khilate,pilate hain virat ek hi jhatke mein agar ise maut de doge ,to tumhe nahi lagta ise sukoon ki maut mil jayegi? Ise to itna dard ,aur itne jakham denge hum ki yeh ginte ginte thak jayegi ,par naa iske zakhm bharenge, naa hi aansu rukenge.

Ek pe ek muft, muft, muft,bilkul muft. Yaad karo virat maine tumhe subah mein kya kahan tha?Tadpo neeksha tadpo,tuto,bikhro.I am dying to see you in my feet, begging me for your life."

Virat went back to remind what she said him in morning.

Flashback

Virat came out of Neeksha's room, when Ragini caught him and dragged him towards her room. She checked, whether anyone noticed them or not, shut the door properly and shouted at Virat

"Tum yaha kiski arthi uthwane aaye ho? Tumhari ya humari ?Aaj tum humein jawab de hi do, pagal ho gaye ho? Kar kya rahe the tum uske room mein, jaante bhi ho kitni mushkil se tumhein college me enter karwaya hain sabse chupa ke ?

Jab tak bade bhai tumhari entry permanent fix na kar de, tumhe chup ke rehna hain. Decide yahi hua tha yaha aane se pehle ki tum chup ke vaar karoge aur saamne tab aaoge jab hum kahenge.

Jaante bhi ho agar galti se bhi agar dean ne ya Sameera ,Alekh mein se kisi ne bhi tumhe yaha par dekh liya hota to kya hota?Phek dete hum dono ko yaha se bahar. Wo sab tumhein jaante hain siway Naina aur Pooja ke, so mehrbaani karo, khud pe aur hum pe bhi. Samjhte kyun nahi ho tum?

Kahan tha sabr karo,sahi waqt nahi aya hain abhi samne aane ka,par nahi tumhe kaha sunna hain. Apni manmani tab bhi ki thi aur end yaad hain naa ? Ya phir se wahi maut marna hain tumhe, bolo ?"

Virat looked towards her and said

"Woh ladki,mere haath mein aayi aur main use chod dun? Itni asaani se? Akeli hain,aaram se haath aajayegi aur aap sab chahte ho main chod dun use? Bhuliye mat, usike wajah se sab kuch hua tha. Naa woh hoti, naa sab kuch khatam hota.Hum jeet rahe the ,usi ki wajah se humse sab kuch chin gaya tha.Yaad hain na aapko? Aur phir bhi aap chahti hain, hum use chod de?"

Ragini sighed and said

"Tumhe kya humare chehare pe bewakoof likha hua dikh raha hain,Jo use chod denge? Nahi virat tumhe sikha aur samjha rahe hain ki kaise waqt aur mauke ko pakad ke uska istemaal kiya jaa sakta hain.

Tumhe uske saath jo karna hain,tum kar lena par abhi nahi.Sahi waqt ka intezaar karo warna jo yeh thoda thoda maza aur sukoon mil raha hain use tadpa ke,usse bhi hath dho lenge aur humara maksad jiski wajah se hum yaha aaye hain ,sab barbad ho jayega, samjho be smart. Please dont be a desperate swine.

Control your hormones you fool. Hum bata rahe hain aapko virat aakhri baar, agar dubara aise galti hui hum aapko pehchan ne se bhi inkaar kar denge."

Virat threw the cushion he was holding and went inside in his room

Flashback over

Ragini clicked her finger in front of his eyes to bring him back to reality and showed him the wires. Virat nodded his head and both left the place before anyond could watch them.

While in Delhi Neeksha was fighting for her life, Pooja and Harshad were busy in practising for their next day programme.

Pooja was completely lost in making a perfect poster, which they need to submit before the main contest but Harshad was lying behind and eating nachos. Pooja hit on his knees and said

"Oh mister! dimaag tum apna kya ghar par chod ke aaye ho, mere saath? Agar bhul gaye ho toh yaad dila dun main tumhe ki hum yahan par competition ke liye aaye hain, naa ki thusne. Main yahan pagal huye jaa rahi hun, to make a perfect poster aur tum ho ki khane mein pagal huye jaa rahe ho.

Khana bandh karo aur help karo meri, nahi to main tumko hi posters mein chipka ke submit kar dungi. Samjhe?"

Harshad gulped his juice in a breathe and said

"Maine kab roka tumhe khane se? Yeh lo, tum bhi kha lo. Par mere khane pe nazar mat lagao. Bhulo mat khali pet kaam nahi hota. Pehle pet puja, phir kaam duja i mean poster banana."

Pooja gave a sweet smile to him and said

"Thank you. But no Thank you, main apna breakfast karke aayi hun. Ek second,kya kahan tumne?Main Nazar laga dungi? Mere paas yahin kaam bacha hain bas,ki main tumhare khane par nazar lagati phiru?

Aur abhi tum apna yeh khana khaao abhiyaan yahin pe roko aur meri help karo, nahi toh main dean ko call karke keh dungi ki aapka student yahan par aapke college ka naam badnaam karne aya hain,kyunki ise sirf free ka khana thusne se matlab hain, naa ki koi competition jeetne me.Karu call?"

Harshad got scared as she hold a bottle in hand, he covered his face and said in timid voice

"Dekho,tum...tum, mujhe maarna mat. Help kar toh raha hun na main yaar tumhari, ab kya jaan hi le logi ? Bechara Bhukha pyaasa insaan kitna kaam kar sakta hain, khud bhi toh soch ke dekh naa? "

Pooja, saw a point in Harshad's words, thus calmed herself and said

"Ab aaya naa oonth pahad ke niche. Chalo ab jab tum line pe aa hi gaye ho to  theek hain, main nahi marungi tumko chill karo yaar. Ek dusre ko maarne pitne Thodi aaye hain,hum dono yahan ? Yeh kaam toh main Delhi mein bhi aaram se kar sakti hun. Aur mujhe bhi pata hain bhuke pet kaam nahi hota. Toh abhi jitna kha liya kafi hain.

Baki ka competition ke baad Thik hain? Ab focus kare competition par? Pehle hi tum apna yeh khana side kar dete, itna bolna nahi padta mujhe. Bekar me energy waste kar diya. Ab jaldi jaldi haath chalao, waqt bahut kum hain humare paas mein."

They started continuing with their poster, forgetting about their food.

Mumbai, India

Rajveer and Naina finally reached their destination after a long journey of 14hours. After reaching the college, they met the warden, who showed them respective rooms, after checking the documents.

Before they could move, warden said in her rough tone

"Kahan jaa rahe ho? Yeh hostel hain, garden nahi jo haath me haath daale ghumne nikal pado. Dikhai nahi de raha yahan pe do lines bani hain? Jaao jake line me khade ho jao. Ohh Hero no.1, woh ladkiyon ki line hain, ladko ki line alag hain,usme jaake khade ho jaao."

Rajveer looked at Naina, then at Warden, when Naina whispered

"Yeh kya tha? Yeh pakka se hostel hi hain na,ya phir koi jail ?"

Rajveer again looked back at the warden and said

"Lag toh aisa hi raha hain. Agar college ki baat nahi hoti naa,to aaj hi maza chakhata ise."

Naina looked at him with shock and said

"Kyaaa? Pagal ho gaye ho kya tum? Kuch bhi bole jaa rahe ho, warden hain woh disqualify kar degi aur tum jante ho hum yeh afford nahi kar sakte hain.To please Rajveer apne , gusse, ego aur akad ko thoda kabu mein rakhna."

Rajveer just nodded his head but could not reply to her as Warden again said

"Subah 8 baje se 8 30 tak breakfast milega, jo late hoga use lunch tak bhuka rehna padega. Koi bhi ladka ya koi bhi ladki ek dusre ke rooms me raat ke 8 baje ke baad nahi jayenge. Agar aise karte huye koi bhi paya gaya, to woh jodi competition se bahar hogi. Har ladke aur ladki ke beech mein kum se kum 2 feet ki duri honi chahiye. Bhul naa mat yeh tum sabka college nahi hain. Mera hostel hain aur Yahan pe mere rules chalte hain, and you have to follow it whether you guyz like it or not."

Hearing her rules, Rajveer and Naina said in unison

"Yeh to sach mein jail nikla yaar aur yeh yaha ki lady hitler.Ab kya hoga aage?"

They made a crying face and moved towards their respective rooms.

S.Y. Networks

Yug, was turning pages of a file, with no emotion on his face, but his shoulder and his demeanour said he was hell frustrated. He threw the file towards the door, when Samarth entered his room, without the knowledge of the storm entered their life .

"Talwar nahi mili toh, file se maarne chala hain? Par tu shayad bhul gaya hain meri jaan, roz exercise karta hun main, ek file mera kuch bhi nahi bigad sakti."

Yug looked towards him with red eyes, which was enough to say Samarth something grave has happened. He asked softly

"Kya hua hain Yug? Sab theek toh hain naa?"

But yug remained quiet, he could not even think how to break this news to Samarth, as this is related to his dream project. Samarth getting no response, asked him again

"Bata na Yug, hua kya hain? Tu itna chup kyun hain ? Dekh mujhe bahut fikar ho rahi hain. Please bata kya hua hain?"

His repeated pestering, forced him to shout at him and give him the most dreaded news

"Kya batau tujhe?haan? Kya batau? Yeh ki humare haath se tera dream project nikal gaya hain? Yeh batau ki hume laakhon ka nuksaan hua hain? Bol na Samu, yeh batau?"

He started crying, covering his face in his palm. It took few minutes to recall what Yug said to Samarth. When finally Samarth registered his word, he murmured

"Yeh nahi ho sakta. Yeh nahi ho sakta Yug. Tujhe koi galatfehmi hui hain pakka se, yeh kabhi nahi ho sakta. Jab se yeh business shuru kiya hain humne, tab se is project ka besabri se intezaar tha hume, aisa nahi ho sakta. Please bol na Yug, tu har baar ki tarah mazak kar raha hain. Bol na."

Yug nodded his head and said

"Kash main mazak kar raha hota. Par yeh sach hain, accept it. Isliye nahi bata raha tha tujhe, Kyunki tu yeh jhel nahi pata yeh. Par.."

Samarth stopped him in between and asked

"Kiski wajah se hua hain yeh? Naam bata."

Yug, hold his head in his palm and said in a low tone

"Sheena Oberoi. Jiske saath tu kaam karne ke liye mara jaa raha tha."

Samarth repeated his words and said

"Sheena oberoi. Tu isi wajah se nahi chahta tha,naa ki hum iske saath kaam kare? Isi wajah se tu har baar mujhse ladta raha?"

Yug just nodded his head in affirmative, and hung his head down. Samarth hold his shoulder, shaked him and asked

"Aur kya chupaya hain tune mujhse Yug? Bol na, mooh me dahi kyun jama rakha hain tune? Bata bhi de."

Yug remained quiet, which irked Samarth more and he said

"Theek hain, tu mat bata. Ab mere saare sawalon ke jawab wohi degi jisne yeh sab kuch shuru kiya hain. I am going to meet Sheena Oberoi. Rok sake to rok ke dikha."

Yug shouted to stop him and said

"Mujhe maaf kar de Sam, main tujhe abhi pura sach nahi bata sakta. Par bharosa kar mujhpe, main sach chupana bhi nahi chahta tujhse. Bas kuch waqt de mujhe, yeh pura raita mujhe acche se samet lene de, sab shanti se samjha dunga main tujhe."

Samarth closed his cabin's door with a thud and said

"Aakhri mauka de raha hun tujhe Yug, one last chance. Jab tak yeh project hum wapis cheen nahi lete us se ,bas sirf tab tak ka. Uske agle hi pal mujhe saara sach jaana hain. Chahe tujhe pasand ho ya naa ho. Is that clear?"

Yug again nodded his head and said

"Abhi yeh dekhna sahi hoga , ki yeh project wapis,le to le kaise?"

Samarth just hummed in his proposal and left his cabin to get back to his work, leaving back a guilty Yug

"Maaf kar de mujhe Sam, chah ke bhi main tujhe naa sach bata sakta hun, naa hi tujhe Sheena se milne de sakta hun. Bas yahin dua hain, ki tujhe saara sach jaldi se jaldi bata pau. Bas tab tak apne yaar pe bharosa rakhna."
