Today we all have gathered here to congratulate Mr.Karan Agrawal for his new software success. With a great round of applause I would like to request the man of this evening to please come on the stage and share some words about his new achievement.

The host handed the bouquet to Karan who smiled accepting it, and after formally handshaking with him walked towards the lectern. Placing the bouquet over the lectern and adjusting the mic to his height, he looked around the big hall decorated in all white, his eyes travelled everywhere but to that one seat where a lady was seated dressed in a blue gown. Smiling wide at her before looking down he spoke with a calm tone not meeting anyone's eye

"Hello everyone!! I know you guys expecting me to speak something about this software and things as such but I'm just speechless right now, I don't really know what to say but thank you for all this!! Saying this success is only mine alone would be wrong!! It's not completely wrong but it's not completely right as well!!

I would like to introduce you all the person who had been with me throughout this time, and deserves to be equally credited for this achievement, the person without which this success wouldn't have been possible! The love of my life, Mrs."

*Splash*

A bucket of water landed straight on karan's face causing him to wake up with a jolt startling him completely.

He panted gasping for breathe, his eyes narrowed listening to his mom laugh who was standing next to his bed with an empty bucket in her hand.

"Mummy yaar.... Kitna achchaa sapna dekh raha tha yaar.. (I was dreaming so good)"

"Han han.. uth ab (Get up now)"

"Aur kitna uthuuu, ab bhagwan ke paas chale jaun kya? (How much more do I get up, shall I go up to god?)"

"Dekh le teri Marzi hai wo wapis niche bhej denge! (See that's your wish, he will send you back again)"

Karan's mom yelled back as she walked out of his room leaving karan's mouth open at her reply. Closing his mouth he looked back at his own drenched self and then his wet blanket he shook his head, it had become a routine 'wake up' for him by his mom.

Huffing and thinking over his dream, he wished his mom would've come little late so that he could listen the name of the girl, and on top of that he couldn't even see the girl's face which seemed blur.

"Don't dream about your dream now, you getting late!!"

He heard his mom yell from the downstairs making Karan smile at how well his mom knows him. His smile disappeared when his eyes went to the clock which was ticking on 7.

He jumped down from his bed quickly making his way to the bathroom, taking a quick shower which wasn't needed after the morning shower he had already recieved courtesy his mom.

Brushing his teeth in utmost hurry, and dabbing the towel on his hair he quickly wore the uniform running downstairs entering the kitchen.

The table was set with breakfast, chapathis were already served on his plate awaiting for his arrival, stepping near the chair his legs ceased at the view in front of him.

"Brinjal curry!!!!"

Karan made a disgust face whispering it to himself looking at his today's breakfast. Finding his mom attention at packing his tiffin, he quickly sneaked in towards her pulling his bag near him.

Grabbing a bread from the table and quickly shoving it in his mouth, knowing well that it was his best food companion for the day he put on his bag running towards the door.

Till his mom could realize what was happening, he unlocked the door sitting on his cycle.

"Don't you dare run away without breakfast!!''

"I'm getting late"

Karan removed the bread yelling back at her, finding her approaching him listening to her heavy foot steps he quickly shoved the bread back in his mouth, begining to ride his cycle.

"Take your tiffin at least"

She yelled back at Karan who just waved his hands in response bidding bye turning his head slightly towards her before cycling at the top speed not minding his mom's yelling behind.

"This kid will surely be one day death of mine"

She murmured shaking her head as she turned back continuing her work.

Reaching school just on time, he entered the class slowly making his way to the 3rd bench of the middle row where Aman was seated already. Taking seat next to him he pushed back his hair styling it looking at his reflection in the silver badge attached on Aman's bag, which Aman usually uses as a mirror to check his hair every other while in the class.

Finding an unusual silence from Aman who usually welcomes him from his kind words "Mara nai??(You didn't die yet?)", He doubted if everything was fine with Aman.

Looking up to him he found him scribbling something in his book, his head resting on his closed fist supported by his elbow. He seemed much lost in his own world of thoughts.

Taking his bottle out he gulped some water down, his eyes not leaving Aman. After drinking he was about to keep the bottle back, but ceased smiling thinking over something. Looking between the bottle and Aman or to be specific his neatly combed hair, a big evil smile played on his lips as he undo the cap of the bottle.

"Baarish ho rahi hai wah (Wow, it's raining)"

Aman smiled thinking, his smile vanished as soon as it appeared on his face and filled with horror in no second "baarish classroom mai?(Rain in the classroom)", he opened his eyes to find water droplets falling on his book and the bench from his hair, touching his hair he found it was completely wet.

With a panic stricken face he quickly got up running out of the classroom in haste wasting no moment. Karan who was controlling his chuckle couldn't control his laughter anymore, falling back on his seat laughing his heart out imagining what he must be thinking when he smiled at it and how it filled with horror in no second.

Aman was not sparing him for messing up with his hair, and he knew it as well but for that moment everything was just too funny for him.

After exact 15 minutes he entered the class just before the arrival of the teacher. His struggle of wiping his hair dry could be seen from his irritated look, he gave a death stare to Karan who didn't even spare him a look the three hours until lunch.

That three hours time which used to fly away in minutes with them teasing and irritating each other laughing every minute today seemed ages long as they didn't speak even once.

Aman fuming at him, and Karan avoiding his state as if he is not there. It wasn't easy for Karan as he was just too addicted speaking to Aman during class hours, he just couldn't concentrate in the class for the whole hour, he had to keep himself entertained to keep his mind active enabling him to understand the things taught fast.

And the very same was with Aman, staying with each other they had grown habits similar. How much Karan used to understand in the class, that much even Aman used to understand. Both sharing the same subject as their favourite- Maths.

Today even doing sums in the Maths period seemed boring as there was no competition like the other days where they competed for each sum.

Karan at times looked at him from the corner of his eyes but said nothing not looking to initiate and also knowing well he won't speak but instead will act ignoring, hence he chose to ignore him instead irritating Aman to the max.

Aman on the other hand knew Karan was waiting for him to initiate the talk, but it was Karan who had started all this, why does he give up? He made sure he was dealing with him properly in the lunch break, only if he knew what was awaiting him in the lunch break.

***

"Whom were u dreaming about huh?"

Karan yelled shutting Aman's mouth who was looking to yell instead. He bit his tongue, thinking if he should tell him about the person he was thinking of. Listening to a big 'no' from his inner voice, he shut his mouth instantly.

When Karan tells something, even though it's something serious, he doesn't leave teasing him up, until he says joining his hands

"Tu rehne de, Chod!! (Leave, you just forget it!!)"

How could he expect him to not tease him after listening that he was thinking about Kaniska and his incident which happened some days back in PT hour? He was gonna tease him until he says the same. Someone has said so true- 'Never share a secret with your best friend'.

Finding Aman reply nothing, Karan grinned wide inside, he never expected his trick of shouting and questioning him to curb his anger would work. Finding him searching for a reply, he spoke again teasing him this time

"Ohh hoo day dreaming about some girl huh??"

Aman raised his eyebrows listening to him, watching him smirk, his eyebrows furrowed further. Suddenly a small smile played on his lips and he turned back, his eyes searching something.

Karan noticed his smile as he turned back, his eyes narrowed trying to understand what was that for. Knowing Aman well that he isn't among the ones who will forgive thee one who messes up with his hair that easily, the alarms in his head were triggered.

His eyes which were narrow earlier in confusion grew wide in shock finding his bottle in Aman's hand. And when Aman uncapped the bottle with an evil smirk not leaving his face, he quickly moved from the place sensing the danger incoming as Aman turned emptying the remaining water of the bottle hurling it in his direction where he was earlier.

In attempt to move quickly he didn't notice the person who was passing by, and bumping along the person, both of them fell on the floor.

Karan managed to avoid his head's collision with the girl supporting his body weight on both of his arms which were across her shoulder. The girl's face was covered with her hair, Karan opened his mouth to say sorry but it shut automatically looking at the blue oceanic eyes staring it into his own black eyes.

It was Aditi who pushed her hair back from one of her hand, causing her face to be visible to karan, whose breathing went uneven when her blue eyes met with that of his own black eyes.

He couldn't help but stare at her mesmerizing oceanic eyes completely forgetting that he was almost lying on top of her. His elbows hurted as it was carrying his whole body weight, breaking their eye contact. He shook his head averting his gaze and controlling his mind he removed one of his arms around her shoulder pulling himself the other side.

Taking the support of the bench's leg he got up slowly, standing still he bent down a little stretching his hand towards her for support who struggled to get up.

Not finding any other option, shying she placed her warm hand over his cold ones, a shiver ran down his body with the touch of her hand, chucking it he grabbed her hands helping her stand.

As she stood both of them had their heads bent, Karan muttered a sorry not meeting her eyes.

"It's okay"

Aditi spoke with a slow voice tucking the hair strands falling on her forehead behind her ear. Forcing a tight zipped smile, Karan took a deep breathe relaxing his heartbeat which were running at it's top speed from the moment Aditi touched his hand.

Turning slightly, both of their eyes widened at the view in front of them. There stood Kanishka drenched with water, looking furiously at Aman who was scared but was hardly showing it, keeping a straight face.

Watching kanishka fuming at Aman reminded him of something similar, which happened just some days back during the PT hour in the playground.

*Flashback*

Karan and Aman were playing cricket with their friends at one side of the playground whereas girls were playing volleyball on the other side. Karan had got out early in the very first ball and laughing at which Aman was teasing him repeatedly calling him "The best player of the team"

Karan raised his eyebrows at him and when he saw him coming to bat he muttered angry

"You will also get out on the very first ball!!"

"I'm not like you, I'm the best"

"It's my curse"

"Ohhhhhhh.... Chal chal time pass mat kar (Goo...Goo.. dont time pass here)"

Said Aman, watching Karan just at some distance, Karan rolled eyes, his only wish that moment was Aman getting out.

Fortunately or unfortunately can't be said, but it so happened that Aman got bowled on his very first delivery, middle stump uprooted.

Aman was shocked would be an understatement, he wasn't a batsman to go out on the first delivery and that too bowled.

He was looking at the stumps with his mouth open as all his friends started laughing on him, and the loudest was Karan who was at a distance rolling on the grass laughing holding his stomach.

"I'm not like you,I'm the best"

Karan repeated Aman's words laughing more, It was just too funny for him that moment, Aman couldn't get more frustrated than this.

"Ruk teri toh (Wait, You Idiot)"

Aman whispered picking up the ball lying near the stumps, knowing what was coming Karan quickly stood running half falling in the process.

Aman ran behind Karan who didn't stop aware of what will happen if he does. Aman continued yelling asking him to stop who didn't mind entering the girl's area.

Giving up on chasing him Aman aimed Karan from the ball finding him run in the straight line. Smirking he threw the ball with all his strength towards him but at the very last moment when the ball was about to hit Karan's back he changed his direction finding himself entering the volleyball area and the ball went on hitting the back of a girl causing her to groan our of pain.

Aman facepalmed groaning, everytime some or the other way Karan escapes. Walking close to the girl he found out it was none other than Kanishka who was trying to ease the pain rubbing her back from the back of her hand.

Looking at him nearing Kanishka understood he was the one who threw the ball, she hadn't seen his face yet, watching it is Aman the guy she doesn't like blind eye because of his attitude issues. She grit her teeth staring him mentally planning of not returning the ball until he says 'sorry'.

Aman bit his tongue watching Kanishka standing with the ball, he felt bad for hitting her. Not wanting to go too near her finding it unsafe being well aware of her anger issues with him, he stood at a distance.

He felt he has to say 'sorry' and was about to say, but then his own attitude self prevented him from doing so. He wanted to say it, but that just didn't come out of his mouth. He himself doesn't know when was the last time he told anyone sorry, the word felt very unnatural to him.

In spite of knowing she was waiting for his 'sorry' he asked with a cool commanding tone "That's my ball", infuriating Kanishka.

She raised her eyebrows rolling her fist, she felt an urge to hit his handsome face with the same ball, but controlling it pushing her anger aside she picked up the ball thinking to return back to him but as she looked to throw she found him passing his hand through his hair.

This one gesture of his she hated the most, she was hell irritated of listening her friends speak about the same.

"Wow he looks so hot doing that, Awww such a handsome guy, My heart skips whenever he touches his hair, Such stylish hunk... Blah...blah"

She was fed up of listening these comments from her own classmates, It was too irritating, she never found it attractive instead whenever Aman does that she feels like pulling his hair apart. Watching him do the same she grit her teeth, her fist growing tighter, she lost her temper completely when she heard Aman say in a louder tone

''That's my ball"

"Take it then"

She half yelled throwing the ball towards him with all the force she could put behind in doing that.

Aman clearly didn't expect her to throw with that pace, and not standing too far ahead the ball came just too quick for him to react. Till the time his hands could come to catch the ball, the ball had already hit his nose.

'Oouucchhh' Aman screeched out of pain holding his nose with both of his hand. It surely hit him hard, not hard enough to break his nose though but enough to gift him a red swelling around his nose noticable for couple of days.

*Flashback ends*

Recalling Aman's red swollen nose, because of which almost everyone in the school had laughed looking at his face for the entire day, and as a result Aman didn't show up for next day and so did Karan because of Aman.

Karan recalled laughing at the most funniest part which was a small kid coming and asking Aman

"Bhaiya, jaise Spider-Man hota hai, waise hi ap Bandar-Man ho kya? (Bhaiya, Just the way there is someone called Spider-Man, same way, Are you Monkey-Man??)"

Finding Aman stuck at a similar situation, Karan felt bad for him but he could do nothing about it. He could see the horror in Aman's eye who stood rooted, staring back at Kanishka.

Karan wished that Aman says a sorry to Kanishka but he knew that wasn't happening, finding Kanishka smirk at Aman suddenly, Karan pressed his lips together. He could foresee something incoming for Aman, not something he would like for sure.

"Tu toh gaya bhai! (You're a goner dude!)"
