It was daytime, the sun was shining over the building of the college where students were in the class and some were in the canteen, some were in the garden and some were in the library.

Neil was standing in the lab and Juhi was with him. Neil was looking here and there. Neil was about to turn but Juhi screamed and she held Neil's shirt. The two buttons of Neil's shirt opened. Juhi's back hit the table and Neil fell on her. The door opened and Neil and Juhi looked at the door. Neil was shocked. Avni was standing by holding the handles of both shuts of the door. Avni was shocked to see Neil with Juhi. Avni was shockingly looking at Neil and Juhi. Neil was in shock and he looked at Juhi and then he looked at Avni. Neil thought and he realized his position. Neil moved back and Avni was shocked to see Neil's condition. The buttons of Neil's shirt were open. Avni looked at Neil and was panting. Neil was looking at Avni shockingly and was worried too. Avni looked down and she went from there.

Neil: Avni.

Neil went behind Avni.

Neil: Avni. Avni, ruko.

Avni was passing by the corridor hurriedly. Neil came behind her while running and he held Avni's arm and stopped her. Neil was standing behind Avni.

Neil: Avni.

Neil was panting and he sighed.

Neil: Avni, jaisa tum soch rahi ho asa kuch nahi hai.

Avni turned to Neil.

Neil: Actually, kisi ne Juhi ko lab main lock kar diya tha to main us ki help karne gaya aur kisi ne...

Avni interrupted.

Avni: Neil, Neil.

Avni was not looking at him.

Avni: main janti hun ke tum dono ke bich kuch nahi hai aur tum shayad mujh per bharosa na karo lekin yeh baat janana tumhare liye zarori hai.

Neil frowned.

Neil: Konsi baat?

Avni looked at Neil.

Avni: Yeh sab Juhi ka hi plan tha?

Neil was shocked.

Neil: What?

Avni nodded.

Avni: Actually, main library jaa rahi thi to wahan maine Juhi ki friends ko baat karte suna. Woh keh rahi thi...

Flashback:

Avni was passing by the corridor but she heard a voice.

Avni heard: Abhi tak Juhi ne Neil ko phasa liya hoga.

Avni stopped to hear Neil's name. She looked at the side and she moved to the window.

Girl: ab pure college main yeh rumor
spread karega ke Juhi and Neil ke bich kuch hai aur woh dono purani lab main intimate position main pakre gaye.

Avni was shocked.

Girl 2: Aur phir Juhi ka rasta saaf ho jaye ga. Us ke liye Khanna mansion ke darwaze khul jaenge.

Girl: Jaisa Juhi chahti thi sab waisa hi hoga.

Girl 2: hmm.

They did Hifi. Avni was shocked.

Girl: Chalo hum students ko bula kar laate hain.

Avni was shocked.

Avni: Nahi, main asa nahi hone de sakti. Mujhe Neil ko bachana ho ga. Main asa nahi hone dungi.

Avni thought and she ran.

Flashback ends.

Avni was looking at Neil who was also looking at her.

Neil: yeh sab Juhi ka plan tha?

Avni nodded.

Avni: main janti hun ke mere pass meri baat sabit karne ke liye koi proof nahi hai le...

Neil: Tum se proof mang kon raha hai?

Avni looked at Neil who was looking at her. Avni was surprised to hear Neil.

Neil: mujhe tum per bharosa hai.

Avni was surprised. Neil and Avni were looking at each other and lost in the eyes of each other. Avni broke the eye contact and she turned her face. Neil was looking at her. Neil looked down and looked here and there.

Neil: Thanks, Avni, mujhe bachane ke...

Avni interrupted.

Avni: Maine wahi kiya jo mujhe sahi laga. Is main thank you ki koi baat nahi hai. Agar main Sheela aur Pihu ki batain naa bhi sunti tab bhi main is rumor per kabhi bharosa nahi karti.

Neil was surprised and he felt a joy in his heart.

Neil: Itna bharosa karti ho tum mujh per.

Avni looked at Neil and she saw his condition. Avni instantly turned her face. Neil was confused and he saw himself. Neil was shocked to see the open button of his shirt. Neil felt awkward and he closed the button while looking here and there.

Neil: ab, tu, tum ne jawab nahi diya?

Neil looked at Avni. Avni smiled.

Avni: ab itna to jaan hi gai hun tumhe.

Neil was surprised but he felt good. Neil smiled. Avni looked at Neil and smiled then she went from there. Neil was looking at her. Juhi was looking at them from away.

Juhi: Yeh Neil, Avni per gussa kyun nahi kar raha?

Juhi thought and when Avni went from there. Juhi came to Neil.

Juhi: dekha.

Neil looked at Juhi angrily.

Juhi: yeh sab us Avni ka hi kiya dhara tha na. Us ne hi darwaza khola.

Juhi acted to be innocent. Neil was looking at her.

Juhi: ab woh pure college main yeh rumor spread kar degi ke hum dono lab main ek sath the.

Neil was angrily looking at her now he understood her plan that Juhi was trying to target both Avni and Neil with one arrow. Juhi wanted to trap Avni and also she wanted to clear her way to Neil's life. Neil was angrily looking at Juhi.

Juhi: Ab kya hoga?

Neil was glaring at her. Neil clenched his fist and closed his eyes. Neil sighed and tried to control his anger. Juhi looked at Neil and she thought Neil was getting angry at Avni. Juhi acted to be innocent.

Juhi: Neil.

Neil looked at Juhi.

Juhi: Neil, mujhe bohat dar lag raha hai. Agar yeh baat principal sir ko pata chal gai aur agar unho ne humare parents ko bata diya to...

Neil remembered that Avni told him that Juhi wanted entry into the Khanna mansion.

Neil: Relax, Juhi, nothing will happen like that.

Juhi was shocked.

Juhi: How?

Neil: Hmm?

Juhi got puzzled.

Juhi: I mean how you are so sure about it?

Neil: Because Avni has no proof that we were in the lab.

Juhi was shocked. Neil smiled.

Neil: That Avni is so foolish that she came alone there.

Juhi was shocked.

Neil: I mean who will believe her. If she had brought some students with her then maybe she would have succeeded but she being dumb came alone. What she thought that she would trap us there and then she would tell the students and they would believe her.

Neil shook his head while smiling.

Neil: I think, the student did not believe her that's why she came alone there.

Juhi was shocked.

Juhi in mind: Yeh Sheela aur Pihu kahan reh gai? Why they haven't come with other students till now?

Juhi thought and Neil was looking at her. Neil narrowed his eyes.

Neil: Idiot.

Juhi looked at him.

Juhi: Hmm?

Neil: Idiot planner.

Juhi was shocked and felt embarrassed.

Juhi: You mean Avni.

Neil: Yeah that planner.

Juhi smiled hesitantly.

Juhi: Avni is that planner.

Neil said hmm while nodding.

Neil: Ab, leave this topic and go and get fresh. You are looking horrible. Tumhara makeup bigar gaya hai.

Juhi got embarrassed and she touched her face.

Neil: Agar kisi aur ne dekha to bhoot smajh kar bag jaye ga.

Neil laughed and Juhi felt humiliated. She went from there and Neil smirked.

Neil: Tum chahe kuch bhi kar lo lekin main tumhe Avni ko koi nuksaan pohanchane nahi dunga. Kabhi nahi.

Neil looked angry.

Later, Neil came to the classroom while smiling but his smile and heart broke to see Avni sitting with Ali. Avni was cleaning Ali's hair.

Avni: Hat gaya. Dihan kahan rehta hai tumhara?

Neil was looking at Avni sadly. Neil's friends were looking at him and they found him looking at Avni.

Ali: Mera dihan tha. Us Vicky ne jan bujh kar mere upar were chips ka packet giraya. Idiot.

Avni smiled.

Neil gulped to see Avni.

Vidyut whispered to KK: Kuch to garbar hai, KK. Apna hero Avni main kuch zyada hi interest le raha hai.

KK whispered: Lagta hai yeh Avni ko humari real Bhabhi bana kar rahe ga.

They chuckled and did Hi-Fi. Avni looked at Neil and smiled. Neil smiled faintly. Avni frowned and Neil looked down. Neil went to his seat and Avni was looking at him.

Ali: Avni.

Avni looked at Ali. Neil sat on his seat and looked at Avni.

Vidyut: Kahan chala gaya tha tu?

Neil said looking at Avni: Kuch kaam tha.

KK and Vidyut looked at each other and smiled. Neil was looking at Avni and Ali and they were smiling.

It was the time of the night, the moon was shining in the sky. In an isolated area, Avni and Neil were standing near a scooter.

Neil: Sit.

Avni sat and wore the helmet. Neil sat behind her. Neil taught Avni who was still nervous.

Neil: Understood.

Avni said nervously: Yeah.

Neil: Don't worry, I am with you.

Avni gulped and nodded.

Neil: Start.

Avni started the scooty and the scooty was going here and there. Neil kept his hand on Avni's hand and Avni was shocked. Avni shivered and Neil looked at Avni and then he focused on the road.

Neil: See, we can handle it.

Avni looked at the handles and Neil's hands were on Avni's hand. They ride on the scooter and Avni smiled. Neil saw Avni smiling in the mirror and Neil smiled to see her. Avni gained some courage. Neil saw that and he slowly took away his hands. Avni's hair fell on Neil's face who closed his eyes and inhaled the fragrance of Avni's hair. Avni got nervous and the scooty got out of control.

Neil felt the scooty was out of control and Avni called him. Neil looked at Avni and controlled the scooty. Avni took a breath a relief but was still looking pale. Neil stopped the scooty. Avni closed her eyes and kept her hand on her heart. Avni sighed. Neil got down and he smiled to see Avni's condition.

Avni: Yeh scooty chala mere bus ka kaam nahi hai. Mujhse nahi hoga.

Neil cupped Avni's face. Avni looked at their hands.

Neil: Tum se zaror hoga. Bus himmat rakho.

Avni was looking at Neil and she felt good. Avni realized the situation and she looked at Neil's hands who also looked at the hands. Neil realized what he did. Neil took his hands back. Avni and Neil felt awkward and they looked here and there.

Later, Avni and Neil were standing near Neil's bike. Neil got on the bed and Avni was looking at the bike. Neil looked at Avni.

Neil: What happened?

Avni looked at Neil.

Avni: We will go on it?

Neil: Yeah, what is the problem with it?

Avni looked down and shook her head.

Neil: Sit.

Avni looked at Neil.

Avni: Neil.

Neil looked at Avni.

Neil: Now what happened?

Avni: ab, Neil, kya tum mere ghar ke bahar panch minute khare ho sakte ho?

Neil: Kyun?

Avni: Tumhari amanat tumhe lotani hai.

Neil frowned.

Neil: Amanat? Konsi amanat?

Avni: Woh engagement ring.

Neil was shocked and he felt that Avni had pulled the rug from under his feet.

Neil was shockingly looking at Avni who was looking at him.

Avni: Tum please apni amanat le jao. Actually, Dadi ki nazar hai us per.

Neil was in shock and lost. Neil's mind stopped working and he didn't hear what Avni said.

Avni: Aaj bhi woh mujhse ring ke bare main puch rahi thi. Mujhe dar hai ke ring woh le na jaen. Tum please apni ring le jao.

Neil was lost. Avni was looking at Neil and was confused because of Neil's silence.

Avni: Neil?

No reply.

Avni: Neil, tum sun rahe ho na?

No effect. Avni again called Neil and this time, a bit louder.

Avni: Neil.

Neil: Hmm.

Neil came out of his shock. Neil looked at Avni who was looking at him.

Avni: tum ne suna jo maine kaha?

Neil was looking at Avni.

Neil: Tum ring wapis karna chahti ho?

Avni nodded and Neil was shocked. Neil felt something broke inside him and he felt a pain in his heart. Neil's throat was paining.

Neil whispered: Kyun?

Avni was surprised to see Neil. Avni felt strange.

Avni: Ab ek din to ring wapis karni hai na to abhi kyun nahi? Mujhe dar laga rehta hai ke ring Dadi le na jaen. College khatam hone ke bad to yeh fake engagement ka drama khatam ho jayega.

Neil got hurt to hear "fake engagement".

Avni: Phir to wapis karni hi paregi na. To acha hai na tum abhi hi le jao.

Neil was looking at Avni with hurtful eyes. Avni was surprised to see Neil sad. Neil lowered his gaze and then he looked away. Neil sighed and then he gulped. Neil cleared his throat and looked at the bike.

Neil: Betho.

Neil didn't look at Avni and he took the helmet. Neil wore the helmet and Avni was looking at Neil. Neil started the bike and Avni looked at it. Avni looked at Neil who clenched the handle. Neil was moving the handle. Avni saw that and then she looked at Neil. Avni didn't see Neil's moist eyes. Avni sat and Neil moved up the glass of the helmet and wiped his eyes. Neil shut the glass and started the bike. They went.

On the way, Avni and Neil were silent. One was confused and the other was hurt. Avni's words were echoing in his mind.

Flashback:

1. Avni: Tumhari amanat tumhe lotani hai.

Neil frowned.

2. Avni: Woh engagement ring.

3. Avni: Ab ek din to ring wapis karni hai na to abhi kyun nahi?

4. Avni: Mujhe dar laga rehta hai ke ring Dadi le na jaen. College khatam hone ke bad to yeh fake engagement ka drama khatam ho jayega.

Neil got hurt to hear "fake engagement".

5. Avni: Phir to wapis karni hi paregi na. To acha hai na tum abhi hi le jao.

Flashback ended.

Neil grinned his teeth and speed up the bike. Avni got scared and she looked at Neil.

Neil again saw the flashes and he speed up the bike. Avni gulped.

Avni: Neil. Neil, please, speed kam karo.

No effect.

Avni: Neil, mujhe dar lag raha hai.

No effect. Avni gulped.

Avni: Neil. Please, Neil.

Neil heard Avni.

Avni: Please, speed kam karo mujhe dar lag raha hai.

Neil saw Avni in the mirror and he found her scared. Neil lowered the speed of the bike. Avni sighed.

Avni: Thank you.

Neil heard that but he didn't say anything. Avni was looking at Neil

Soon, they reached home and Avni got down from the bike.

Avni: Tum do minute roko main abhi ayi.

No reply from Neil. Avni turned and Neil looked at her. Avni was going to the door and Neil was looking at Avni. When Avni reached the door and opened it, Neil started the bike. Avni was shocked and turned her face. Neil turned the bike and went from there. Avni was shocked and she was looking at Neil.

Later, Neil was laying on the bed in Fowler's position and was lost. Neil again saw the same flashes.

Neil in mind: Avni humari engagement kyun torna chahti hai? Waja kya hai? Is se pehle to usay dadi ka dar nahi tha ab kya howa?

Neil thought.

Neil in mind: Kahin asa to nahi ke dadi sirf ek bahana hain aur asal waja kuch aur hai lekin kya?

Neil thought and was shocked.

Neil in mind: Kahin Ali to nahi.

Neil was shocked.

Neil in mind: Kya Avni, Ali ko like karti hai? Aur isi liye woh humari engagement torna chahti hai.

Neil thought.

Neil: Woh dono bohat close bhi hain.

Neil thought and he saw the flashes where Avni and Ali were smiling in the classroom, Avni and Ali were sitting on the stairs and were having fries and burgers and Avni and Ali were in the classroom and Avni was setting Ali's hair.

Neil gulped.

Neil: Bohat nahi bohat zyada.

Neil was looking hurt.

Neil: Kafi gheri dosti ho gayi hai dono ki.

Neil thought and was shocked.

Neil: Kahin Avni, Ali se pyar...

Neil stopped and was shocked. Neil's eyes got moist.

Neil in mind: Yes, she loves him. Isi liye to woh humari engagement ring wapis karna chahti hai. Woh Ali ke sath loyal rehna chahti hai. She loves Ali.

Neil gulped and was in pain. Neil thought and nodded.

Neil: No, no. Asa kuch nahi hai. Avni sirf studies main us ki help kar rahi hai. Woh teachers ki respect karti hai usay sir ne kaha hai isi liye woh Ali ke sath hoti hai.

Neil thought and he saw the flashes where Avni was setting Ali's hair with her hand.

Neil in mind: Lekin woh dono bohat close aa gaye hain.

Neil thought and looked away to shrug off that thought.

Neil in mind: so what? Woh dono friends bhi to ho sakte hain. Ek larka aur ek larki friends bhi to ho sakte hain na. Woh dono friends bhi ho sakte hain.

Neil nodded and thought.

Neil in mind: Phir Avni ring kyun wapis karna chahti hai?

Neil thought.

Neil in mind: Us ne kaha na ke Dadi ki waja se.

Neil got frustrated.

Neil: Bus kar, Neil, tu is bare main itna soch hi kyun raha hai. Yeh engagement to temporary hai na. Sahi to kaha Avni ne ke college ke bad sab khatam ho jaye ga. Tu ne yeh engagement Avni ki studies main help karne ke liye ki thi to phir tujhe itna bura kyun lag raha hai. Kyun tujhe Avni aur Ali ke sath hone se fark par raha hai? Kyun?

Neil thought.

Neil: Nahi, mujhe koi fark nahi par raha. Woh to Avni ne achanak ring wapis karne ki baat ki is liye mujhe thora dhajka laga. Hmm. Aur kuch nahi hai. Kuch nahi. Kuch nahi. Kuch nahi.

Neil thought. Neil again saw the flashes of Avni and Ali. Neil got angry. Neil took the cushion from behind his back and threw it in frustration. Neil was panting and was in anger.
