Gauri was sitting on the corridor alone in dim light resting her back on wall, writing something. Rudy sees her and comes to her sighing.

Flashback

Gauri stands in front of Shivay nervous.

Shivay shrugs his shoulders.

Shi: I dont know na then what to say

Gauri whines: Shivay

Shi: ok, say him, I like you then whatever you said about him that day

G: I should tell everything

Shi: its personal matter, it will be awkward for you,go. I will wait here

Gauri hugs Shivay and goes.Gauri sees Om and goes to him smiling.

G: (ok Gauri start with a hi good morning)

Gauri stands beside a wall and see him with Ishana.

O: haan Ishana, you are right, my preference of a lover and you are poles apart.I like a girl who is modern in life style, who wears modern dresses

Gauri looks at herself . She was wearing salwar.

O: who is very smart and active. Who is pretty, who wears lenses, who is cool in life,not like you Indian beauty, who is extrovert not a ambivert or introvert. Isliye I am saying, it won't work out for us. Aur haan please dont try to change for me coz I believe if someone should love you they should love the real you..

Om walks. Gauri hides behind the pillar. Gauri has tears in her eyes.

Hearing it Rudy too looks surprised.

Ru: Om had such expectations. Why didn't he say me

Gauri shrugs her shoulders in tears.

G: toh bas, I didn't say. I have many problems in life Rudy. A person who doesn't accept me the way I am, how can I expect him to stand by me in my problems. So this hiding. I knew he will reject me. That's what happened

Gauri chuckles. Rudy also in tears.

G: I told you not to expect, see the result, big disappointment.

Ru: Gauri

G: its not his fault too, my bad fate, whomever I love doesn't love me back just want to be away from me

Rudy hugs her and she cries hugging him.

G: I am ok. I will be ok

Ru: I am sorry, its all coz of me

G:nahi, why are you blaming yourself duffer, I told na its all my bad fate .Not your fault.

The function gets over.

G: seems like the function is over I should go

Ru: I will drop you

Gauri smiles: forgot Shivay's order

Rudy looks down sad. Gauri pats his cheeks.

G: cheer up.

Gauri goes. Rudy sits there sad. Om comes to him.

O: Rudy vo

Ru: kya, vo kya Om. You couldn't find her na, yehi na.

O:vo Rudy I , I was

Ru: you, when did you started giving importance to clothes and looks than a person's heart huh?

Om close his eyes in disbelief : ( I was right its Ishana. I ) I

Ru: what I , the O I know, my best friend is not such. Do you know how hurt she was, its all my fault, she was right with the decision of not meeting you, I convinced her thinking you will understand her and will clear her worries. I was wrong. I made a girl cry coz of you O.

Om looks down sad.

Ru: she was in front of you expecting you to recognize. but you ignored her you were saying na I can recognize her even in darkness, then?

O: where is Ishana

Ru: dont change the topic, I dont know about any Ishana and vishana

Om stunned: It's not Ishana?

Ru: what not, what the hell happened to you

O: then who

Ru: you lost your chance

O: Rudy please I, I was so confused, I thought I, please say

Ru: you cant force to do something other person dont want to

Om looks at him.

Ru: that's the friendship rule na. I dont want to talk about her anymore.

O: Rudy

Ru: end of discussion

Rudy goes in anger and sad. Om close his eyes sad and distress

O: I messed it up damn. All ways closed, Rudy said he wont help. God please show me a way.

Rudy was sitting on a corner lost, thinking about what Gauri said. Someone sit beside him. Rudy sighs.

Ru: there is no use sitting here, I am not gonna fall for your sad face

Rudy see Bhavya looking surprised seeing his anger. Rudy sighs.

Ru: you

Rudy looks front. A girl walk infront of him and waves hand smiling. He just waves his hand.

B: hmm no smile no flying kiss, something is wrong

Ru: wrong? No I am fine.

Bhavya looks at him keenly. Rudy wipes his tears.

Ru: something went in my eyes

Bhavya smiles.

B: you know, when I am sad I also say the same thing to bhaiya,bhaiya something went in my eyes, do you know what bhaiya says(imitating Shivay) if you didn't say what happened I will for sure put something in your eyes

Rudy smiles. Bhavya too.

B: toh this excuse wont sell here, haan if you don't want to say its ok

Ru: I am feeling really bad, horrible

Bhavya looks at him surprised as he was sharing.

Ru: coz of me someone is so sad today and I dont know what to do to make it right. Actually its all coz of that idiot but I too became a part,does someone do like this. Feels like not at all talking to him. Feel like

B: ek jhaap pe

Ru: haan,but I don't know what to do. How to make things right.

B: hmm ask your best friend Omkara maybe he have solution

Ru: arre I am angry at him

Bhavya wide eye: kya? You fighted with Omkara, your best friend?

Ru: why are you so shocked, Cant I fight with him. He did mistake toh I will fight with him. He is wrong

Bhavya sighs.

B: no one is perfect Rudy, mistake happens. Are you perfect?

Ru: vo the problem

B:no right, everyone has problems and flaws. That's friendship ,to accept him with his flaws and problems.

Ru: but how can he like a girl by looks.

B: toh everyone has different criteria to like someone. Maybe you find it wrong he doesn't. For this silly reason will you leave him alone? your friendship.is only that much?

Rudy pouts like a child.

B: ab jaao, hug and make up. Ainvayi you was sulking. Such a cry baby

Ru:,cry baby?me?

B: who else

Ru:then you are tension baby , always tensed

Bhavya rolls her eyes.

B: please haan. I am not nervous every time. Go cry baby

Bhavya walks smiling lifting his mood.

Om was sitting on the same place Gauri was sitting. Om sees a paper on the floor. He frowns and takes it. It was the questionnaire for the first round in the test filled by Gauri. Omkara looks surprised .

Om shocked goes to fold the paper and sees something written behind.

Eventhough I expected you won't recognize me somewhere inside I wished you identify me and I will fill this questionnaire for the competition. We would've win na coz I know everything is correct, after all its one year I have been stalking you. Itna toh I should definitely know. I know its stupid of me to put such stupid game. But what to do I am afraid of rejection, I dont expect anything from you, loving you from distant give me immense happiness but if you reject me I won't be able to take it. Isliye I thought if you recognize me may be chances are there you accept me but what happened was hmmm. I should share it with anyone so I am writing. But dont worry this wont reach you. I will be throwing this in the dustbin. Like this letter, secret admirer also will remains a secret

Very much lovingly

(Yes readers thats the correct time Rudy came and Gauri closed the paper.)

Om in tears and surprised: secret secret admirer? That too from one year? Toh my heart was right someone was observing me all this time. This much love? But I haven't done anything for you na. I dont even know your name still how can you.

Om wipes his tears.

O:nahi, I am not that stupid to loose a person like you in my life. Rudy

He remembers Rudy saying no more discussion.

O: I know he will be angry, he should be, I have hurt her . I will find you secret admirer.ab toh this letter is not a secret so be the secret admirer. I will definitely reach you this is Omkara Singh Oberoi's promise
