KNOCK

Sid opened the door and stunned after seeing the person before his pupils. 

"What? What are y..' 

Sid gasped as his breath took away because of that person's tight hug. 

"I-I-I'M S-SOR-RY' 

"don't-don't hate me' squeals roli clutching his back. Rocky and dhruv startled in sleep hearing her loud crying sound. They found rosid's hugging posture. They snickers irritating sid,

"Will you both please?...' annoyed him removing the crying roli from him. Rocky and dhruv groaned laid down again. 

Sid turned his head and saw roli who weeps looking down wiping her nose. 

"You have to go to your room...' said him nonchalantly making roli weep more. 

"Tr-Trust me, i-do-don't doubt you' 

"ok...go' sid turned his heels to go inside his room. 

"Please, don't turn your face against me! at-at least give me a chance to explain' implores her grabbing his full length sleeve. 

"Please sidhant, at least one chance' she spit her words between her choke. Sid took a deep breath,

"Fine!' accepted him walks inside his room to grab his water bottle. 

"sit' said sid pointing his college ground's bench, right now they were in college ground...alone!!! 

Roli obeyed his order sat in the bench still sobbing visibly. 

"Have this...' he opened the cap of the bottle before handing it to her. Roli took it from him. She stars the floor running her finger in the sealing surface of the bottle to control her hiccups as she doesn't want to gag. 

"You can drink that, i didn't add anything in it' stated sid rolling his eyes. A new sob escaped from her mouth,

"I-I-di-didn't mean to h-hurt you sidhant' speaks her without raising her head from the floor. 

"But you di...'

"my friend (roli interrupted sid) shika was spiked and m-mol-molested by her own brother's friend at a party when we were 15...it-it took us so difficult to bring her back to normal after that incident...' confessed roli breathing heavily. 

"When you gave me tablet, i just remembered shika but (she lifted her head from the ground with a drenched face) trust me sidhant, i don't doubt you! I can't! I won't!! I would not have come with you if I had doubted you..don't push me away' stated her with a hopeful look. 

Sid shocked at first then understood why she had behaved like that, but still he couldn't clear the image of her doubtful face. 

"Ok, you are forgiven (roli smiles) and forgotten...'

"No...Please No!' begs her stretched her hand to touch him. Roli saw her hand alone in the air as sid moved back creating a gap between them. She retrieved her hand and covers her mouth and cried. 

"You need to go to your room' he said before bends down to take his water bottle. 

"Hmm..' hums roli simply turned around to go. 

"One minute...' sid stopped her. Without turning on his side waits for him to speak. 

"Where is your slippers?...' asked sid looking at her bare foot. Roli inhaled a breath to control her hiccups,

"In-In dorm' answered her takes a step forward. 

"I said one minute...' he grabbed her arm flinching her. 

"wear this and go...' says him removing his own sandals. 

"It's ok, i can manage!' roli whispered looking everywhere but sid. Sid huffed! He crouched down then touch feet shocking her. 

"Wh...' her words stuck in her throat as sid slipped her feet in his sandal by himself. 

"Now you can...' sid crossed his arms and waiting for her to move. Tears runs down in her cheeks,

"I'm sorry!.. please, forgive me if you can' requested roli whipped her heels then walked away from him. 

Roli reached her dorm,

She turned her head and spotted sid was still standing there watching her dorm room direction. Roli couldn't control the urge to cry aloud. She breaks into tears rushed inside her room. 

Roli threw herself in her bed and whined pressing her face in the pillow. 

Airaa woke up hearing roli's muffled cry. 

"Hey?...' airaa ran near roli sat beside her. 

"what happened honey?...' airaa touched roli's shoulder. 

"i do not d-dou-doubt him...' confessed roli weeping heavily. 

"Doubt him? sidhant?...you doubted sidhant?...what you have done roli?'

"no i didn't...' roli sat in the bed,

"trust me di, i didn't!' squeals her covering her face. Airaa pulled roli and hugged her,

"He's not talking to me like before...he is so angry....' 

"After jiya tried to commit suicide, sid's father doubted and blamed sid then locked him in a store room for an hour..' revealed jiya caressing roli's hairs. 

"I don't doubt him di...'

"then make him understand that' she removed roli from her shoulder and wiped her tears. 

"Now like a good girl sleep, everything will be alright, ok?...' 

Roli nodded her head and laid down. 

"Good night!' airaa wrapped the blanket around roli after turning off the lights. 

MORNING: 

Roli reached the parking lot and waited for sid to come. 

An hour has passed,

"Where is he?...' mumbles her took her mobile to dial him.

"Hey roli...' called dhruv distracting roli. 

"What are you doing here?...' asks him holding a bunch of papers in his hands. 

"I...um.. I was waiting for sidhant! We left two colleges left yeste...'

"Sidhant? But he went to give invitation early today' informed dhruv shocking roli. 

"What?...'

Dhruv shrugged his shoulders like yes. 

"Ok sissy, before John sir kick me, I need to give this to him' he smiled at her then walks towards staff room. 

Tears stinks her eyes, she blinks her eyelids to remove her watery vision. 

"Go, who cares?...' mumbles roli slowly moves inside the campus. 

"Why the hell your face is like this?...' yelled samira gripping roli's chin scanning her sad face. 

"It's nothing Sam, i'm fine! Just not feeling well' 

"You are telling this lie for the 6th time roli' sam rolled her eyes shoved her chin. 

"Let me tell you roli, you look horrible!' scoffs sam turning her attention again back to her record. Roli sighed staring her record note uninterestingly. 

"And he said he don't want roli..' jigar smirks. 

"Oh my..i never thought this will happen so soon' screams riya in happiness. 

AFTERNOON:

"Take a breath, nothing goes wrong because of one call...' says roli to herself watching her own reflection in washroom mirror. She took her mobile out then called sid,

"Hello si...'

"Hello?...'

Roli's breath stopped for a second after hearing a female voice on the other side. 

"Who-Who are you?...' queried roli in almost shock. 

"Excuse me, it was y...'

"esha baby, can you please throw me my chocolate?...' 

Roli's blood froze in daze. 

"One minute sid darling' 

"Wait, let me feed you'

Roli hears esha's chuckle and sid's laugh. 

Roli hung up the call as her body burns in anger. She clutched her mobile and her body shuddered in jealous. She wants to puke but nothing come out as her anger did not cooperate with her. 

Roli came out from the washroom with a determination. 

She went to the canteen where sam was waiting for her sitting alone. 

"Why so late? dhruv and his friends went to their class' sam pouted her lips packing her bag. 

"You asked me, why i'm not love your favorite brother sidhant back right?...' asked roli sat in front of sam confusing her. Sam stopped her work occupied her seat again,

"Yeah...'

"because I love someone already' roli proclaimed stunning sam. 

"What? What? No you are lying' 

"his name is rihan ahuja' said roli appalling sam more and more. 

A wicked smiles evilly inside biting her lips. 

"My mission has begun sam...' thinks roli sipping her juice watching Sam's shocked face. 

ROLI'S DORM:

"Really? But you said you don't want to execute my plan...'

"he pushed me to do it' roli's face turned pale. 

"What he did now?...' asks shika folding her legs preparing herself to listen roli's story. 

"Ahh (roli grabbed her hairs) that idiot went with another idiot and they both were FEEDING chocolates...how dare he? He left me and went. Ok, fine no problem! But why with HER?...can't he go alone? And her giggle, grosss' infuriated her clenching her jaw. 

"Enough, don't pull your hair. I love yours' says shika sincerely. 

"Seriously? Out of all my words, you were focusing my hairs?...' exasperated roli. 

"Ok mother chill! Don't go mad! Now coming to the point, you plan of making him jealous was good'

"Correction, your plan' roli corrected her sentence.

"my plan! Are you happy now? Don't interrupt me girl (roli zipped her lips threw the key away) listen, definitely your new friend samira (shika rolled her eyes and roli chuckles finding her possessiveness) will tell your boyfriend...'

"He's not my boyfriend!' groaned roli. Shika crossed her arms,

"How did you get the key?...' asks her glaring at roli. Roli smiles sheepishly Zipped her lips again. Roli tries to throw the key,

"No, give it to me' shika forwarded her hand in the video call. Roli pouted her lips then acts like placing her imaginary key in shika's hand. Shika retrieved it and placed it under her pillow making roli giggle. 

"Now coming to the point, samira will tell your boyfriend about your fake love. The things you want to do isss...Change my name into rihan, I'll send some lovey dovey chats and you blush deliberately in front of sidhant. If he loves you truly, he will get jealous' shika winked at roli. Roli smiles widely showing super in her finger. 

After getting love advise from shika placed her laptop in the nightstand after changing shika's name from my crime partner to rihan. 

NEXT DAY MORNING:

Roli was walking in the corridor hugging her record note against her chest. 

"Ahh..' shouts roli with a gasp as someone pressed her back in the wall leans on her. She saw the person, slowly her heart comes to the normal beating rate. 

"What nonsense is this sidhant?...' scowled roli trying to push him away as students were stopped in their track watching them including sid's friends and sam. 

"Is that true? You love someone?....'

Yes..Yes...Yes...Yes... 

Roli dances inside...

"Ye-Yeah!' lied her controlling her laugh. Riya saw rosid's closeness. She turned and saw jigar who gave them confused look scrunching his eyebrows. 

"you are lying! I saw love in your eyes for me' Sid moved an inch close to her. 

"Not for you Mr. President! For my RIHAN AHUJA...'

Sid's hold loosened from her arms. 

"Rihan ahuja? That famous model?...' airaa inquired. Roli nodded her head,

"Yes, we keeps our love in low because he doesn't want media to disturb my studies...' said roli. Sid took a back steps like an broken soul. 

"Let's-Let's go' he stormed out. A sudden pain occurred in roli's heart seeing pain in his handsome face. Sid's friends with sam followed him giving her a disappointed look. 

"Am i doing the right thing?' roli asks to herself. 

PRECAP:

"Hey my baby!' 

"Ri-Rihan?...' roli's body trembles in fear spotting the person before her eyes.
