*16*


Sanskar imagined his mother talking all this and shook his head to come out of the hallucination where his mom was still near her room.

He held Ragini by her shoulder and closed the door dragging her inside. “It's Karan... mom.. He had forgotten his keys. I gave him back” Sanskar shouted and heard his mother's footsteps coming to halt. “Fine” she spoke in a sleepy tone and walked back to her room closing the door of it.

Sanskar sighed and looked at Ragini. “What the hell is wrong with you? Why have you come here at this time?” he whispered sternly.

“I..” she spoke but he closed her mouth. “Don't talk so loud” he pleaded her and she nodded her head. When he dragged his hand back he realized how close he had move to her and both of their hearts galloping sensing the proximity between them.

He stared down at her and she looked into his eyes lost. “Come” he whispered and dragged her along to his room. He made her sit on the bed. “Are you okay?” he asked and sat facing her and she smiled weakly at him. “I am sorry I behaved like a jerk instead of worrying what brought you here at this time” he cupped her face and she looked into his eyes.

“What did you wanted to speak?” he asked. “I.... I....” she fumbled and felt it difficult to form words. “Before all that.. I need to apologize for whatever happened today” he looked down and Ragini nodded her head in a No.

“I really behaved badly and I am sorry for that. But please don't take that anger on my cousin” he spoke apologetically and Ragini looked at him confused. “You might be knowing this. You sister had called Karan and she wanted to break up with him. But thank god. He  did not heard it. I tried to make her understand but I am not sure if she is convinced” he stretched his lips forming a thin line. She tried to speak but was interrupted again.

“He really loves her... I mean Karan is best guy any girl will have” he smiled. She nodded her head in a NO. “Don't worry he isn't like me. He is a total gentleman. You know he always believed in true love. And wanted to treat the girl he falls in love as his queen. And I...” he chuckled. “I always used to laugh on his childish thinking” he remembered their time.

“I used to tell him that there is nothing called as love. It's just the illusion what our mind creates. Mathematician you see. I calculate everything so believing that some stupid feeling will make us stupid was never my agenda in life” he woke up and walked towards the window and Ragini followed him.

“Until I met you” he turned to stare into her eyes and she forgot everything. The moon light sparkled their eyes as they stood close to each other. “You made me believe that yes there is some feeling which makes us stupid. Yet it's pleasing and the only feeling we even willing to die for...” Ragini closed his mouth and nodded her head in a No.

She moved close to him covering the distance and placed her lips over his and they closed their eyes melting in each other's breath. Sanskar snaked his hand across her waist and pulled her close and she fell on his chest. She moved her hands across his chest dangling them around his neck and dragged his face close to herself and they continued to kiss passionately.

Sanskar flipped her pinning to the wall near the window and kissed down her neck and Ragini felt herself loosing when he kissed her neck near the shoulder and made her knees weak while his hands moved the sleeve of her dress slide. “Sanskar...” she moaned his name when he moved to her shoulder. He covered her exposed shoulder by her sleeve again and moved to kiss her forehead.

“I am a patient guy. Don't worry” he whispered and Ragini hugged him tight closing her eyes. “You need to go home. It's too late” he spoke in her ears. “Some more time please” she whispered and he smiled stroking her hair and moved to the unheard music holding her close to him.

“I love you” he spoke and she held his shirt more tightly dropping those held tears on his shirt. “Hey” he brought her face to look at her and gently wiped those tears. “You need not answer now only. Take your time and I promise I will change myself. I don't want to be jerk at least to you” he said genuinely and she placed her finger on his lips.

“You are perfect the way you are” she said with a huge smile and hugged him again.

'I will speak to Karan and tell him the truth that I am not in love with him... Because I love Sanskar.... He is the one whom I want in my life. May be he is not as good as Karan. But that's love right. I love Sanskar for what he is. Though he hurts me I can't stop loving him. I love him the way he is. My Flynn Rider' she smiled widely covering him in her embrace feeling light and happy.

The next day was dance competition. Ragini had decided that she will confess to Karan that she loves Sanskar not him. She was getting herself ready and she heard a knock on the door. She looked through the mirror of the changing room and found Sanskar smiling at her  and she smiled back to him. “All the best. And I know you will rock it” he placed his hands over her shoulder and looked at her reflection in the mirror.

“As far as you are with me. I will” she placed her hand over his hand. “And after the competition I am gonna take you out” he kissed the side of her  head making her smile. She thought it will be a perfect time also to clear his confusion. She nodded her head and pushed him out of the room. She smiled biting her lips.

Sanskar walked to Karan's room then to wish him also. “Hey bro” he walked inside the changing room of Karan. He was nervous like hell. “Relax buddy” Sanskar placed his hand over Karan's shoulder. “I am so damn screwed brother. I am not gonna make it” he said biting his nails. “Stop doing that” Sanskar dragged his hand and stretched his arms to give a warm hug to calm Karan down.

“If I don't do this I am sure Sunshine is gonna be so damn angry on me. She will surely leave me” he looked up at his cousin nervous. “She won't... She loves you and love is not weak to fail for such silly reasons” he smiled at Karan. “Aren't you turning into a love guru lately” Karan looked at his cousin who blushed looking down. “Sort of. Now don't panic. Do your best” Sanskar patted his shoulder.

“Hopefully” he said nervous. “Listen bro. When you hold her hands remember nothing but one thing that you love her and nothing matters” Sanskar spoke and Karan nodded his head feeling relaxed.

Sanskar walked out of the dressing area and settled himself among his other colleagues. Sandra passed him a writing pad which had the scoring sheets. “No.. I can't do it.. You know my cousin is participating with his girlfriend and also...” he stopped himself. 'And the girl I love is also participating. Though I don't know with whom is she participating' he spoke in his mind and a small smile crept his lips on the mention of her name.

“I can't be considered for this” he stretched the writing pad back to her. His eyes stopped on something over the paper which surely made him numb and he dragged the paper back.

His fingers moved on words “Karan and Ragini” Suddenly everything around him seemed blur. “Ragini and Karan?” he looked up at Professor Dan who was sitting beside him. “Yup” he nodded his head. “Will you believe it if I say Karan even did not knew moving his legs and all thanks to Ragini that he is participating in this competition. Love really makes you do things which you don't even thought of all your life” Dan smiled and Sanskar sat dumbstruck.

He remembered everything. His eyes were burning as  he stood up and walked towards the changing room straightly to where he had left Ragini. But she wasn't there. He walked to the rehearsal room where he saw Karan and Ragini practicing and Karan was missing his steps terribly.

Ragini got annoyed and walked from there and found Sanskar on her way. Karan sat there disappointed by himself.

Sanskar looked at his cousin then dragged Ragini aside into a class room. “You are Karan's Sunshine?” he asked as his eyes emitted fire and ready to drop the hot tears. Ragini looked at him shocked. “Sanskar.. I...” “Tell me” he screamed but his voice did not leave the class room but she shuddered at the intensity of it.

“Listen to me” she moved her hand to his cheek. “Just tell me” he squeezed her shoulder. She moved her other hand over his cheek and caressed it lovingly. Though her shoulder was on fire due to the pain of his hold all she was worried was his pain. He closed his eyes and his hold on her loosened and they stood touching each other's forehead.

“Why did you do this?” he asked her painfully. “I loved you... I thought you loved me too.... But all this while you were playing with my feelings and also with my cousin's feelings. Why?” he asked her  and she did not answer but burst into a bitter cry.

“I love... I love you” she spoke cupping his face in her both the hands. “You don't...” he moved away. “We don't hurt the people we love. You destroyed me... You.. you don't love me... You just were playing with my emotions. The emotions which I felt only for you. How could you do that?” he looked at her painfully.

“Sanskar.. I...” “Stop... It is over... I was better without these feelings and I hate you for making me this vulnerable. I just hate you” he stormed out of the class room leaving Ragini to collapse on her knees.

“Ragzee” Rebecca was searching Ragini when it was her next performance. She found Sanskar walking out of a classroom and rushed towards it. She found Ragini in tears and lying on the cold floor. She consoled Ragini and hugged her. She dialed Diya's number.

Diya ran in the direction Rebecca told her. She stopped at the door of the class room and was shocked to find her twin sister in that state. “What happened?” she hugged Ragini and asked Rebecca. She nodded her head in a No. “I just saw that professor walking out and came here. She was crying from then” Rebecca told her.

“Ragzee... Listen look at me” she made Ragini to face her. Her face was smeared of tears. “He hates me D.... He hates me... The one person I really loved hates me... I... I spoiled everything... I...I don't want to live....” she cried more choking on every word she spoke.

“You love him?” Diya asked confused. Ragini nodded her head and told her everything what happened. Diya covered her closing her eyes and consoled her.

“That jerk of a man. How can he hurt my sister. It was all his fault and he is blaming my sister for no reason” Diya closed her fist.

“And the next pair is Ragini and Karan” they heard the announcement. Rebecca and Diya looked at each other. “She has to reach the stage now” Rebecca spoke. “No... not like this... she can't do it right now” Diya spoke helpless. “What to do?” Rebecca asked.

“You be with her. I will talk to the organizing team” Diya walked out of the classroom and Rebecca helped Ragini to walk.

As soon as Diya reached near the stage she was dragged by one of the member of organizing team member. “Go its your turn” she whispered and walked from there leaving Diya on the stage where Karan was already standing. She looked around as everyone stared her.

“Hi...” she smiled waving at everyone. “Actually. Ragini was sick suddenly. So I thought we shouldn't leave the competition in half way. So I am just representing her” she said and hoped she won't be thrown eggs and tomatoes at.

She gulped scared when the scorers discussed something among them. “We will change the name of the partner to Diya. Don't worry Ms. Kapoor. Any one of you twin sister wins the trophy will be in the same house isn't it?” Mr. Dan smiled and Diya shook her head in yes. She was shocked because she did not expected Professor Dan to be kind all of a sudden.

Karan was about to faint when Diya held him. She held her palm so that he holds it and he slowly moved his hand and held her hand... And everything around him disappeared and only her face reflected in his eyes.

He tightened his hold on her hand and his nerves started to recognize her touch. And the song started to play and they swayed being in each others arms.

Heart beats fast... colours and promises.... how to be brave 
how can I love when I am afraid to fall  

But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer....

They stepped nearing each other and Karan stared straight in her eyes lost in the world of memories of her touch.

I have died everyday, waiting for you...
Darling.. don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'll love you for thousand years....

He twirled her and she landed on his chest and they danced each step like they have been dancing from forever guessing each others moves accurately.

The music stopped when Karan twirled her one last time holding her in his embrace and the hall erupted with loud noise of claps and they moved away. The audience gave them a standing ovation and everyone cheered “Once more”

Karan's mind was in different dilemma. It was playing his every encounter with Ragini the time he felt different. Her behavior, his feelings around her.

He walked down the stage and Diya followed him. “Karan...” she called and he turned to her sharply and she stumbled on her feet when he was close to her. He looked into his eyes.

He remembered Ragini's eyes were brown and Diya's eyes are of hazel green color which he always thought as lenses.

He held her by her shoulders and neared her and his mind replayed the incidents happened only between them and which he misunderstood that happened with Ragini instead.

He felt disgusted about himself. He let her go and back walked a bit feeling it difficult to even walk. He stumbled when Diya tried to hold him but he stopped her. His eyes stopped on his locker and he walked to it and took out a box and held it in front of Diya.

“Do you know what's this?” he asked and she looked at him confused. He opened it and showed a glass doll and below it written as “My love”

“I brought it for Ragini- the girl I loved. I always wished that I will love someone to an extent that she will be the luckiest person in the world and I will love only her to that extent” his eyes dropped hot tears. “But now....” he looked up at her.

“I hate myself... I... I hate myself...Did you heard me? I hate myself....” he neared her holding her by her shoulder and she nodded her head looking at him painfully.

“Because you are the girl whom I kissed first. The kiss your sister actually deserved...” he moved his orbs. “You are the one who heard me confessing my love first... Where as it was supposed to be your sister. It was you with whom I shared my feelings and emotions which were supposed to be only for Ragini.... She was the one whom I loved... Then why? Why did you.... why did you made me have those feelings and emotions for you? Why?” he pressed his hand and broke the doll in his hand.

“I hate myself... I...” he hiccuped. “Karan...” Diya held his bleeding hand. He jerked her hand. Then he felt a pricking pain in his heart. “I... I am sorry... I am sorry for shouting at you... I am sorry... I am not this... Believe me... I am not bad... I am not bad...” he cried bitterly falling on his knees.

“I am worst... I am the worst... I hurt her... I hurt you... I hurt everyone...” he spoke looking at her. Diya wanted to console him but she had no courage.

“I am worst...” he kept repeating to himself. “Please go... go from here... I don't want to behave badly with you” he folded his hands requesting her. Diya controlled her cry and ran from there. “I just keep on hurting people... I....” he kept repeating to himself and his hand was dropping the blood drops but he wasn't feeling that painful. He was feeling nothing.
