"You should not have given your mobile to Faraz" Rishika was still thinking about everything she went through yesterday, after waking up.

"That smart ass was after my mobile like anything. You know I am always worried that random guys should not take my mobile and start blackmailing me. So I didn't even let him touch it" Reetu was innocently confident.

"Then how come that video disappeared?" Rishika was surprised.

"Arre that asshole used poor innocent Powlo to get to my mobile. She was not aware he took advantage by giving some lame excuse" Reetu was genuinely concerned.

Rishika thought about it and then changed the topic "by the way what's there in your mobile that someone can blackmail you?" Rishika gave a wicked smile to Reetu

"Nothing like that, I mean girls stuff and all" Reetu was answering seriously

"Come on am just pulling your leg" Rishika laughed

"Now get ready, we are late for college" Reetu realised it's already time to go.

On reaching college, Rishika realised that everyone in the group was aware of what happened on the roof of ghost block and now want to avoid discussing too much about it.

"Let's forget about all this and let's watch Dhoom3 guys, my favorite Aamir is back with a bang" Rads was the first one to break the silence and wanted to divert attention.

"I am in only if I am not sitting between Mishika, last time they continued chit chatting throughout the movie" Reetu seemed annoyed but was also enjoying calling out Rishika and Mitesh together.

"Come on, poor Mitesh was just explaining to me throughout the movie, that really helped you know" Rishika defended Mitesh.

"This is Katrina's movie, I don't want any distraction at all" Samar seems to be very serious about Katrina.

"I have a solution, Reetu can sit with me and Samar with Powlo, that way we all will be happy, right?" Rads had the answer for their problem.

"Whatever you guys say, I will continue chit chatting during the movie, let Aamir and Katrina hear my sweet voice" Mitesh was in a happy mood.

"No yaar, I really want to watch Katrina without any disturbance, it's not due to us that Rishika is...I mean...like" Samar knew it was already late, he should not have said that.

Rishika realised situation was awkward, she tried controlling it "guys it's all ok, Mitesh will be completely silent today"
She turned to Mitesh and said "I will never talk to you if you say anything during the movie, but ofcourse you can bring Nachos for me during interval, I love it"

Rishika saved the movie for all of them, though Mitesh felt bad still he went ahead as movie is always the best time to be with Rishika. Though he was not feeling right as he cannot explain the movie scenes to Rishika. Last time when they all went to watch movie, Mitesh loved to explain to Rishika what color clothes actors were wearing. Still he was happy as he will be sitting with Rishika, all thanks to Reetu who just came with a lame excuse to let them sit together. But Rishika was happy that she was with a group of good hearted people.

Songs were always Rishika's favorite part in the movie, she loved hearing her favorite songs in the big movie hall. There are lots of good and bad memories she had in movie theatres. Her mom fighting with strangers objecting on her continuously describing movie scenes to her daughter, who could not see it herself.
Why people cannot accommodate even small inconvenience in their life even after having everything what others are ready to die for, she wondered.

Everyone was unusually quiet in the beginning of the movie. Rads sat at the corner with Reetu followed by Rishika, Mitesh, Powlo and Samar.

Mitesh was following Rishika's instruction to the core and didn't said a word. But he made sure that he gave her directions through hand movements or little noises. Rishika was loving this side of chirpy Mitesh, he can be caring too. But she was in a fun mood and was poking him in between to push him to say something, but he was in the role seriously.

Two Aamir in the movie made sure that Rads was loving the movie a lot, but surprisingly she was just making some noise during the dialogues, unlike the typical Rads who will whistle at the entry or some action sequences.

Rishika poked Mitesh thrice when 'Kamli' song was playing. She knew Katrina would be looking very hot as told to her earlier by Reetu. But Mitesh was completely in his role today.

But Samar made it clear that he loved Katrina on screen when he shouted "I love you Katrina, marry me hottie"

Everybody laughed, even the strangers sitting in the front row.

Rishika was loving every minute inside the hall. The music, dialogues, songs everything was so larger than life. She wished just like her gang, she could also enjoy the visuals. But she knew that was not possible.

Lost in her thoughts, she didn't realise that it was interval time.
She said immediately "Mitesh, where is my Nachos? You know I love those right"
After getting no reply from Mitesh she continued "I told you that we can talk during interval Mitesh, after all my Nachos depends on you"

Mitesh replied "Ha ha, don't worry about your Nachos, I have pre ordered it. Now it will come to our seat"

"Smart" Rishika was impressed.

A guy from the front row commented "Guys is this movie so bad that people don't want to see it" and his whole group laughed.

Rishika just ignored their taunt. This has not been a new thing for her, but these taunts could never stop her from coming to movies. She thought for a bit why Mitesh remained silent and then smiled remembering that she only asked him not to talk. She thought, I told him not to talk to me, not to everyone else as well, stupid fellow, and she chuckled.

Suddenly she felt someone crossing from her row and stumbled a little from her sandals.
Two things Rishika hated the most in movie halls, first if someone keep crossing from the row, already there is less space and she hated to fold her legs to let people pass and second if someone from behind spread their legs and hit her seat.

She again sensed the same person coming back and stopping near her seat, "Is this D32?"
Before Rishika answer, Mitesh jumped in "Ya, is it our Nachos? We were waiting for it"

"Yes sir, and I crossed from here twice" the person sounds irritated.

"Yes we were waiting for you, what took it so long, and I hope Mayo is there, what about Salsa?" Mitesh was inquisitive which irritated the person more.

"Sir, if you take out the BLINDFOLD, you can see for yourself" he handed over the Nachos and started moving out of the row, Rishika heard him blabbering
"and I don't know why everyone in this row wearing the blindfold, why to come in the hall if you don't want to watch the movie".

Rishika was numb, she didn't know what to say.

And sometimes it's better not to say anything,
JUST FEEL THE EMOTIONS.

Rest of the movie it was really overwhelming for all of them, they knew Rishika knows about the blindfold, and it was very emotional for Rishika, who knew, that the relationship that she had with the gang now is for life.

During climax, when Aamir was falling from the bridge in an emotional scene, Rishika could not control the tears flowing down her eyes and drenching her cheeks. She just shifted towards Mitesh, grabbed his hands and kept her head on his shoulder.

Whole gang was very emotional and just crying slowly, no one in the hall knew that the tears were not for the movie, but for the life itself.

The thing which all of them had that day, was JUST PURE...

But none of them realised that in that moment there was one more pure emotion found its way,

Rads fingers found her perfect fit in Reetu's hands.
