Writer's POV
(Nandini was sleeping.... Door opened and a shadow came inside first and someone creeped inside her room, slowly and gradually the stranger headed towards Nandini and picks up cushion placed near Nandini and keeps it on Nandini's face and pressed it tightly. Nandini wasn't able to breathe and she was shaking her legs in pain, moving her hands over the pillow and towards the face of stranger to get rid of........ Suddenly, Nandini wake up with a jerk.....)

Nandini (wiping her sweat accumulated on forehead)," Uff... Aiyyappa, yeh kaisa sapna tha.... Kon tha yeh who wanted to kill me. Kahin Alisha toh nahi... May be usko shaq ho gaya ho mujhpe islie vo.... Nahi nahi no way, m sure vo Manik hoga, Monster Manik must be the only person whi wanted to get rid of me... huhh Aj college lawn mein he was so wierd! But phir when i was not well, he was so sweet, if this monster side us his real identity toh vo kya tha !!. Uff, mein isey kabhi nahi samajh paungi yaar let it be, monster manik huhh!!( frowning)"

Nandini was about to sleep, meanwhile Mukti wakes up hearing the sound of Nandini and noticed her while wiping her sweat....

Mukti," Nans kya hua?? Kya badbada rahi ho tum? Yeh tum itna sweat kyun kar rahi ho? Is everything okay??"

Nandini (vanishes off her thinking about manik and decides to tell her about Alisha)," Vo sab chodo, Mukti promise karo jo main tumhe bataungi vo tum kisi ko nahi bataogi? Kisi ko matlab kisi ko bhi nahi Manik aur Alisha ko toh bilkul bhi nahi!! Promise karo!!"

Mukti," Acha baba promise ab batao kya batana hai?"

Nandini," Vo us din washroom mein aur kal garden mein maine Alisha ko kisi se baat karte hue suna tha maine, vo apne bhai se bat kar rahi thi!!"

Mukti, (interrupting in between and rubbing her eyes)," Nandini yaar kya tu raat ko Alisha kyun yaad arahi hai and vo apne bhai se baat kare ya dadaji se what's the big deal??"

Nandini (hitting her hand on her forehead)," Hey bhagwaan!! Mukti yaar tu sun toh lia kar pehle!! Her conversation was not normal, vo koi plan bana rahi hai kuch bohot bada.... usne do bar bat ki hai and kal toh vo bol rahi thi ke, Pravah night pe vo apna plan execute karegi, ab tum batao kya karein??"

Mukti (Staring at Nandini in shock,all sleepiness was vanished, she stood up in anger with a jerk)," What the hell, how could she did this? Let me talk to her!! Abhi batati hoon usko!! "

Nandini(pulling her on bed)," shutup!! Mukti kaha ja rahi ho tum? Bola tha na kisi ko mat batan abhi koi proof bhi nahi hai!!"

(Listening to this, Mukti said, koi ni kuch na kuch jaroor proof milega don't worry hum sath mein sab pata laga lenge...)

Nandini," Thank god you believed me, mujhe toh laga tha ke tu mujhko bewakoof bolegi ke main fizool ki batein soch rahi hoon...

Mukti," (giving her a side hug and hitting nandini with her hand.)," Tu pagal hai kya? Behen hai tu meri, bachpan se sath hai apan... I know yoh very well... How can i trust Alisha? I hardly know her... Tu tension na le sab badia hoga... Chal uth ab ready ho ja apan ko college bhi jana hai!!"

Nandini," Mukti its 4 am yaar abhi kya karegi ready hokar, so jate hain na kuch der!!"

Mukti," What!! Its just 4 am!! Itni jaldi utha dia tune mujhko nandini, pagal hai kya tu?? ( Hitting nandini on her shoulder!!)

Nandini (rubbing her hand on her shoulder and making angry pout)," ouch Mukti, maine tujhe kab uthaya yaar tu khud hi uth gayi huh... aur mar mujhe rahi hai!!"

Mukti," Oh chup reh tu toh, tune hi uthaya mujhko pata ni kya badbada rahi thi islie neend khul gayi meri teri wajah se!!"

(Mukti lies on her bed with a bang and sleeps keeping pillow on her face!! and Nandini lies down and tries to sleeps lightly pressing her paining shoulder and closed her eyes but her mind was thinking if the plan of Alisha")

(At 6 am)

(Nandini was twisting and turning on the bed as she couldn't be able to sleep due to the thoughts jogging in her mind. Mukti was also not able to sleep due to Nandini's tantrums over the bed and wakes up in anger.)

Mukti (yelling at Nandini with an angry face)," Kya hai tujhko, le meri maa uth gayi main ab bed pe nachna band kar!!"

(Nandini after listening to Mukti's high pitched voice she got worried and pretend as if she has fallen deep in sleep and didn't woke up even when Mukti shakes her up. Mukti went to the washroom and returns with a bucket full of cold water in that bucket and throws it on Nandini.)

Nandini (wakes up with a shock and shouts at Mukti)," Haaa..... ahhh Mukti whats wrong with you!! Its so cold, itna thanda pani koi dalta hai kya kisi pe yaar"

Mukti," Omg! Nandu you felt cold but m so sorry tune mujhe sone nahi diya na toh how could i let you sleep comfortably haan!!"

(Nandini looks angrily at Mukti and Mukti leaves tapping her foot on floor and comes back with a cup of coffee in her hand, whereas Nandini was still busy in thinking. Mukti went near her and picked her finger and touched ut at the surface of the cup making Nandini shout in pain.)

Nandini," Yaar mukti, kya kar rahi hai tu, ab maine kya kiya?? Kyun dukhi kar rahi hai!!" (This time Nandini was seriously tired and sad whuch was Noticed by Mukti and she felt that Nandini is seriously worried).

Mukti, " I am sorry Nandini, comeon its 7 am we should go and get ready, college jane ka time ho gaya hai!!"

( Nandini nodded her head in yes and went to take a shower. Both got ready and everyone reaches college.... Everyone was practicing for music and suddenly professor Raghav came and said i want both the teams to assemble in assembly hall in 10 minutes..)

In assembly hall-
Professor Raghav," Good afternoon all.... There's an important announcement to make," Date for annual function Pravah has been finalized and its on 20th.... So you guys pull up your socks and practice hard only 7 days are left for it and i'll give you 2 days practice hard and day after tomorrow i will be listening to your composition and yeah the Fab5 & Na3 you both will be performing two dances together in a starting act okay so be prepared, one would be group dance on western song and other would be romantic couple dance and couples will be of separate teams not of same teams. Romantic dance will be performed by four couples and they are-
Manik & Nandini
Aryaman & Mukti
Cabir & Navya
Dhruv & Alisha
because there is one member lacking in Na3 so Dhruv and Alisha would be dancing together aur yahi pair wise group dance me position rahega..

Alisha( to Manik)," What is this we are a couple why can't we dance together after all we are a couple that's not fair!!."

Manik," Calm down dear, let me talk to professor....
Professor Raghav, i want you to change couple, Dhruv ko Nandini ke sath shift karo and I'll be dancing with Alisha okay and I've talked to my mom so do as I say!!"

Professor Raghav," Manik partners are finalized and tumhe tumhare partner ke sath hi perform karna hoga!! Nothing would be changed so you go and concentrate on your practice..."

Manik ( in angry tone) ," Listen, let me call my mom she is a trustee of college and knows principal very well she'll handle it herself and you have to change the couple!!"

Prof. Raghav," Listen Mr. Manik whosover you are it won't affect me, i don't care. Its better you go and prepare hard. My decision will not change!! And rahi tumhari mother ki bat i know Mrs. Nyonika is trustee of the college and she knows about this couple thing and she has agreed to it, so there's is no benefit of wasting time over discussing about this topic. So go and practice or else you can withdraw your name and spoil your by doing nothing but keep in mind in future you will not be allowed to take part in any college activity if you withdrew your name, these are the orders of the sponsors of this program!! So its up to you, Now please excuse me"

Raghav (announcing)," Listen up guys, there is an important announcement for you all, uf anyone withdrew his or her name from the Function then he or she will not be able to participate in any of the future activity of the college.!!"

(Nandini listened to the conversation and she was continuously staring at Manik and she noticed that Manik was losing his control over anger so she rushed to stop him...)

Nandini," Stop! stop! Listen Manik, ( taking him aside) its just a 15 - 20 minutes dance let's just do it na, practice tum Alisha ke sath kar lena not to worry okay relax, there's no need for so much arguement as it would lead to more trouble and name withdraw karne se kuch nahi hoga it will affect your career( she was holding his hand while speaking as she pulled him aside)."
