Sign of upcoming happiness was received by Anant when his family finally called off the thought of fixing his alliance with Shagun. Shagun just wanted to get Anant. She had no such virtue which his family wished in their future daughter in law. As soon as his family realised the truth they changed their possible decision about Anant and Shagun.

Anant felt much lighter after Shagun's departure from his house as she had been living there since a few days. Taking the sign positively, Anant made his mind to heal his friendship with Navya. He was somehow excited to get back into their bonding which was the other name of ecstasy for him.

The cultural fest in college came ahead to support his motive. He planned to claim the chance for himself, for them, for his love for her.

There was great spirit in college campus for cultural fest. Practices of dancing, singing, play and mimicry were going on. Anant had chosen a song for himself. Actually, he intended to convey his heart to her, his wish of coming back to her with his smile which she liked the most.

The program started, and participants performed one by one. Finally, it was Anant's turn. He climbed up the stage with his guitar and charming smile getting into everyone's heart.

When his smile had attention of each eye he looked at Navya making her feel his smile is meant for her. She too reciprocated his smile.

He started singing. The signs of his serene eyes were signifying his silent words to her. She as a keen listener just kept listening him, looking at him eyes loaded with spark joy. The eye talking took them to a different world where no sounds exist except their heart beats communicating with each other.

At the end of his performance, a huge round of applause was heard. He came down, and made his way towards her amidst of crowd who were busy in clicking pics and conversing.

"I wish to make your eyes shine the same everyday," Anant sounded cheerful like before.

"You sang well, Anant. Such a heart stealing performance you have given!" Navya held the exact expression she had during his performance.

"Is it? Is your heart also included in all those stolen hearts?" he bent his face towards her, to observe her closely.

The smiling girl got slightly nervous. She felt an urgency in her mind to find the answer for herself at first before answering him.

"We don't know about that, but you have definitely stolen her usual self," Ritz rushed towards the duo followed by Appy and Ranbir.

Anant smiled at the trio since he had no idea about why the girls entered into the scenario at wrong time and why Ranbir had a worried look on his face.

"Ritz, was it necessary to interrupt them? You are just too stubborn to keep my request of letting them have their time," Ranbir huffed his helplessness out.

"Had Ritz not interrupted then I would have done the same," Appy stood beside Ritz, supportively.

"I guess I should have requested you instead of her. After all, you are the sweetest friend of our friends group, aren't you?" Ranbir tried to take Appy in confidence as she was really to sweet to get convinced with few compliments.

"This won't work here, Ranbir. Remember, I am present here. I won't let you trick her," Ritz who noticed Appy getting trapped by Ranbir threw a glare at him.

"But, I told the truth, didn't I?" He pouted, looking at all, seeking the answer.

"Forget that truth for now. As Ritz told it wouldn't work here. Let's go," action mode of Appy activated, and she pulled Navya along with her.

"Why are you taking her?" A surprised Anant asked.

He gasped noticing them walking away. The least he was hoping that he would get to know the reason of Appy and Ritz's unexpected action.

"We are here to take her with us, and we are taking her too," Ritz too joined Appy, pulling another hand of Navya, quickening the execution.

"I have to talk to her," Anant raised the pitch of his voice as the girls moved a few steps away.

"It's you had to talk to her,"

"You aren't allowed to talk to our friend so easily after ignoring her for so many days," Appy and Ritz replied, respectively.

"Friends can be great trouble at sometimes. They too have proved it," Anant couldn't resist a happy chuckle at the childishness of Appy and Ritz.

"Not only at sometimes but at some special time too," Ranbir too chuckled with a teasing comment.

They continued chuckling together, cheering the vibe which had been missed in their lives.
