(She hugs Yash)

Yash: Awee.. I love you tooo..

Khushi: excuse me.. aur mera kya?

Yash: I love you meri Jaan!!

Khushi: I love you too...!!

(Khushi hugs Yash too. They hear some students talking)

Boy 1: yaar ab last moment party mein aisi condition kaise laga di un logo ne?

Boy 2: Exactly! Ab kya kare yaar?

Yash: kya ho gaya guys? Pareshan kyu ho?

Boy 2: Message nahi padha tumne? College ki taraf se message aaya hai padh lo.. anyways.. bye!

Kriti: ok thanks!
(Boys left)
Ye kaunse message ke baare mein bol rahe the?

Yash: (reading message) guyss!! Only couples entry!!

Khushi: what? Matlab abhi partner dhoondhna padegaa?

Kriti: Aree yaar.. aise kaise kar sakte hai wo? Ab kya kare?

(Shiv and Karan come to the canteen busy talking and planning)

Shiv: Karan.. relax! Ek chai peete hai aur baadme continue karte hai.. ok? Tension mat le yaar..

Karan: filhal to in teeno ke rang ude hai.. chal dekhte hai..

(pointing Khushi Kriti and Yash)

Shiv: Chal dekhte hai.. (going to them)
Hey guys.. kya hua? Itne stressed kyu ho?

Karan: teeno ki shakal pe eksath 12 kyu baj gaye?

Khushi: seriously? Tuja hi nahi pata? Ye last moment pe hum log partner dhoondhne kaha jaaye ab?

(Suddenly Janvi comes from behind and shouts standing behind Karan and Shiv)

Janvi: Surprise...!!!

(Karan and Shiv cover their ears)

Karan: Jannuuuu!!! Yaar ye kya badtameezi hai?

Shiv: Exactly! Aur tu shaam ko aane wali thi na? Achanak se kaise tapak padi?

Janvi: Surprise karne aa gayi yaar... Big deal? Mujhe dekh ke khush nahi ho kya?

Karan: of course khush hai.. lekin tareeka hota hai na yaar.. aate hi heart attack dene lagti hai tu to..

(All laugh)

Janvi: Acchaa lekin Khushi, Kriti, Yash.. tum teeno ko kya hua? Band kyu baji hai mood ki?

Khushi: Jannu di.. ye message..

Janvi: couple entry?

Kriti: haa

Janvi: to isme problem kya hai?

Yash: Chudail.. ab hum last moment partners kaha se dhoondh ke laaye? Hum yaha kisi ko jaante bhi nahi hai..

Khushi: exactly.. aur Freshers party mein couple entry? Ye kitna stupid idea hai.. freshers don't even know each other..

Karan: Isiliye to rakha gaya hai naa.. ab freshers partners dhoondhne ke bahane ek dusre se, seniors se communicate karenge, baatein karenge and it will ease the procedure of making new friends, getting to know classmates and seniors..

Janvi: Exactly.. aur tumhe to bass ek ladka chahiye.. tum dono mein se koi ek iss bandar ke saath bhi to jaega naa..

Kriti: No wayss!! Bhai hai ye hamara.. hum iski date banke to pakka nahi jaane wale..

Janvi: ok.. to mere paas ek aur solution hai tumhare liye..

Yash: pakka kuch aisa hi faltu sa hoga...

Khushi: tujhe phir se pitne jaane ka mann hai to hume bol naa.. warna just shut up!!

Yash: Ok.. chill yaar.. I will zip up!

Kriti: Janu di.. aap bolo..

Janvi: Hmm.. to mai soch rahi thi ki yahi ki hum teen ladkiya, teen ladke hai.. to hum hi saath mein chale jaate hai na..

Khushi: That's a very good idea dii!!

Shiv: Cool.. why not?

Karan: Mai Khushi ke saath phir..

Janvi: What?? Karan.. hum yaha samuhik Raksha Bandhan ke liye pairs nahi dhoondh rahe.. party ke liye date dhoondh rahe hai..
(laughs)

Khushi: Ok then.. to.. Karan mera bhai hai aur Yash bhi.. to bacha Shiv! Shiv.. is it ok if I come with you?

Shiv: Absolutely.. only if Karan agrees..

Karan: Come on yaar.. ye bhi koi puchne wali baat hai?

Khushi: ok then.. ab Kriti.. tu of course Yash ke saath to nahi jayegi to Karan it is aur bache Yash aur Janu di.. perfect!!

Karan: Kri..

Kriti: kya? Nahi lekin...

Yash: Damnn iss chudail ke saath jana padega?

Janvi: Excuse me Bandar.. mai bhi tere saath jaane ke liye mari nahi jaari.. aur waise bhi jaroorat mujhe nahi tujhe hai.. mai organizing committe mein hu to mujhe tere bina bhi entry mil jayegi.. ok?

Yash: to kya ehsaan kar rahi hai mujhpe? How dare you?

Janvi: oh just shut up Yash.. dekh agar tu aise hi mere saath jabaan ladayega na to mai tere saath bilkul nahi aane wali.. phir baithna akele bahar hi venue ke...

Karan: Aree lekin Kriti ko to puchlo if she is ok...

Yash: Khushi.. dekha tune ye chudail kaise behave karti hai mere saath? Kriti tu chahti thi na mai iske saath acche se behave karu.. dekha tune iska attitude?

Kriti: Yash tera thik hai lekin mujhe please kisi aur ke saath..

Yash: mera thik hai matlab? Matlab meri baat ki value nahi na? Dekh Khushi maine bola tha naa...

Khushi: (angrily) Guyss.. guyss shut up yaar!! Just shut up!! Kisi ka partner change nahi hoga and thats final!! Mai Shiv ke saath jaungi, Kriti Karan ke saath aur Janvi di, Yash ke saath aur iss baare mein mujhe aur kuch nahi sunana hai... Is that clear??

Yash: Aree lekin..

Khushi: maine kaha naa isme koi change nahi hogaa

Yash: accha accha fine.. chid mat ab

Khushi: Hashh..

Karan: (in mind: Inke jhagde ke chakkar mein Kriti se to kisine pucha hi nahi if she is ok with this arrangement? Ye Yash aur Janu ka jhagda bhi naa..)

Kriti: (in mind: Karan ke saath uski date banke mai party mein kaise jaungi? Uske saamne mera muh to khulta nahi.. date? Yaar kya karu? Aur ye Janu di aur Yash ka jhagdaa... Kuch bolne bhi nahi diya yaar.. Aur Karan.. usase bhi to kisine nahi pucha wo mere saath aana chahta hai bhi ya nahi.. ho sakta hai wo kisi aur ke saath jaana chahta ho.. yaar)

(Everyone else chats on their whatsapp group for planning)

Khushi: Guys.. plan worked!

Yash: hamare jhagde ke chakkar mein wo kuch bol hi nahi paaye

Shiv: Well done Janu and Yash..

Janvi: Aree Khushii.. kya final statement diya yaar tune.. aage koi kuch bol hi nahi paaya

Shiv: accha abhi phones band karo warna unhe shak ho jayega...!

Karan: Khushi.. tu bata.. jo to bolegi

Khushi: Shiv.. 6:30pm mai ready rahungi.. aa jana ok?

Shiv: ok done..

Kriti: (in mind: matlab ab party mein jaate vaqt bhi Karan ke saath akele jana padega? Damnn what the hell is wrong with my life?)

Karan: Kriti.. be ready by 6 please..

Karan: haa actually raste mein aate aate Party ke liye cake bhi pick karna hai.. so thoda jaldi nikalna hoga.. koi problem to nahi na?

(Kriti and Yash leave, leaving behind Shiv and Khushi)

Shiv: waah yaar.. kya acting karti ho na matlab tum? Ye saara couple entry and all idea tumhara tha aur unke saamne kitna convincingly pite hue Sultanate ki looti hui raani types muh bana liya naa? Jaise hum hi tum par torture kiye jaa rahe hai.. (laughs)

Khushi: Aree of coursee.. pata hai ye plan execution karna bhi ek art hai art...

(They look at each other and burst into laughter)

Shiv: Accha.. but this success calls for friendship.. what do you think?

Khushi: Absolutely.. so friends?

(She forwards hand shake)

Shiv: Friends!!

(Shakes hands with her)

Khushi: Waise mujhse dosti nibhaana itna aasan bhi nahi hai hn.. Jhel paoge mujhe?

Shiv: Try me.. after all ab dosti ki hai to nibhaani to padegi hi..

Khushi: ok then.. pick karne be on time aur nahi aaye to..

Shiv: to?

Shiv: sachme? Phir to 10 min jaldi hi aa jaunga!

Khushi: ok then.. see you in the evening.. abhi chalti hu.. bye!!

Shiv: okk.. bye!

(They turn to opposite directions and start walking and suddenly Shiv stops and runs back to Khushi)

Shiv: Khushi...

Khushi: kya hua?

Shiv: Aree wo Chhipkali!!

Khushi: kya? Kaha hai chhipkali? (Scared)

Shiv: yaha nahi.. party mein hogi..

Khushi: kya? Party mein Chhipkali hogi? Kaunse khandar mein party rakhi hai?

Shiv: nahi nahi.. mera matlab hai wo library wali.. badi chhipkali.. Janu to waha busy hogi so tumhe please meri help karni hogi hn..

Khushi: ohh accha accha wo.. haa thik hai.. lekin ek baat batao.. tum usase aise bhaagte kyu rehte ho?

Shiv: iss baare mein party mein baat karte hai.. chalo bye!

(He leaves)

(In the evening, at 6:00 pm everyone is dressing up their best in Indo-Western outfits. Karan gets ready and knocks Khushi's room to call Kriti. Khushi opens the door)

Khushi: Kya hua?

Karan: Kriti..?

Khushi: Hum abhi tak tayar ho rahe hai to tum ek kaam karo.. neeche jaake aaram farmao.. jaisi hi hum tayra ho jayenge mai Kriti ko lekar neeche aa jaungi.. ok?

Karan: Aree lekin 6 baj gaye.. I have to leave!!

(Khushi closes door on his face)

Khushi: Come on bhai.. date ke liye wait karna hi padta hai..

Karan: kya behen hai yaar meri.. kar diya late Kriti ko bhi.. ab cake lene ke liye late hoga pohonchne ke liye late hoga.. shitt yaar! Lekin ab koi choice hai to nahi.. chal beta Karan.. chup chaap neeche jaake baith ja ab

(He goes downstairs and sits on the sofa waiting for Kriti. In the room, Khushi smirks at Kriti)

Kriti: Kya kar rahi hai Khushi? Tune jhooth kyu bola? Mai to bilkul time se tayar ho gayi hu.. late ho jayega naa.. cake lene bhi jaana hai..

Khushi: Baby.. date to thoda wait karwana to banta hai naa? Aur waise bhi.. tere baalo ko touch up ki jaroorat hai.. chup chaap baith le yaha pe.. mujhe kaam karna padega tere baalo par..

Kriti: Aree.. lekin maine setting ki hai.. don't I look good?

Khushi: You are looking gorgeous lekin I want to see you date perfect gorgeous..

Kriti: kya? Tera dimaag kharab ho gaya hai Khushi.. mai koi asli date pe nahi jaa rahi.. party ke liye jaana hai bass!!

Khushi: tujhe lagta hai mai manane wali hu? Come on yaar.. now stop wasting time aur tu baith jaldii!

Kriti: Finee... Le baith gayi mai..

(Khushi starts setting Kriti's hair. Karan is still waiting and door bell rings. He opens the door and Shiv is on the door)

Shiv: Tu gaya nahi abhi tak? Cake lena tha naa? 6:30 baj gaye bro.. what's wrong with you?

Karan: Na hi, na hello bass yuhi chai paani lekar chadh gaya na mujh par? Pehle andar aaja..

Shiv: le aa gaya.. bol ab
(They sit on the sofa)
Gaya kyu nahi abhi tak?

Karan: kyuki Kriti abhi tak tayar hi nahi hui hai.. I am sure Khushi ne hi use bhadkaya hoga.. mujhe dialogue de rahi thi date ke liye wait karna padta hai and all..

Shiv: Seriously? Ab already 6 ka Kriti 6:30 kar chuki hai.. pata nahi Khushi ke liye aur kitni der wait karna padegaa.. shitt yaar.. waha pe kitna saara kaam baki hai..

Karan: ab jo bhi hai.. baith ja yaha pe aaram se.. pata nahi kab aayegi meri behen..

Shiv: aur koi option bhi to nahi hai..

(Meanwhile, Yash reaches Janvi's house and calls her from door)

Yash: Kaha hai tu? I am waiting..

Janvi: haa I am ready.. bass abhi aayi

(Janvi opens the door and Yash couldn't stop himself from staring her. Janvi snaps in front of him)

Janvi: I know I am looking beautiful... But stop checking me out ok? Party jana hai...

(Yash starts laughing)
Yash: kya kaha?

Janvi: kya mai iss hasi ki vajah jaan sakti hu?

Yash: beautiful? In your dreams.. mai to bass ye soch raha tha ki how do you manage to look chudail everyday? Aur aaj.. aaj to Halloween perfect chudail dikh rahi hai.. very good hn..

Janvi: Ohh really? Waise mai bhi soch rahi thi ki tum aaj bandar nahi dikh rahe.. acche dikh rahe ho.. bilkul Chimpanzee jaise.. very good hn..

(Yash gives her a harsh look and burst into laughter and so does Janvi)

Yash: meri tareef ho gayi ho to chale.. ya Gorilla, Ape ya aur bhi kuch bolna hai?

Janvi: nahi.. aaj ke liye kaafi hai.. let's go!!
(They sit in the car and leave)

(In the Sharma House, girls get ready and walk downstairs and see Karan and Shiv facing opposite side)

Khushi: Chale?

(Karan and Shiv turns towards them)

Shiv: yess.. chalo.. let's go!!

Khushi: Karan!!

(He is staring at Kriti and she is shyly looking at the floor. Khushi and Shiv notices and Shiv snaps in front of him. He comes back to senses and looks towards Khushi and Shiv)

Shiv: bhai kaha kho gaya? Jaana nahi hai kya?

Karan: Jaana haii.. Jaana hai naa.. chalo let's go.. aur Shiv tu please mere department pe bhi thoda dhyaan rakh.. cake lene jaana hai to shayad hume thoda late ho jaaye...
