Chapter 2

Chapter 1

 
            On a bright sunny morning, a black convertible pulls up in the drive way of the Khanna House. Beep Beep Beep Beep. Beep Beep Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep.  The driver is a quite well built guy, wearing sunglasses, ripped jeans, and a transparent shirt. He starts to get impatient and the fact that there are no good songs playing, adding to his misery. He turns to look at the girl sitting next to him and begins sighing quite loudly. The girl is downright beautiful, with her designer clothes and accessories, giving her the perfect look to make any guy stop dead in his tracks. He says to the girl sitting beside him, "Kripa go get them or we are going to be out here all day and miss our first day at college as seniors." She replies quite irritated "fineee Kavya! I'm gonna kill him today if he's not ready". Kripa opens the car door to leave, but spots a cute guy making his way out the house towards his silver convertible. Neev.

Kripa turns around and addresses the traditional yet cultured girl quietly sitting in the back of the car, "Prachi how about you drive to college with Neev and let Kavya here alone with Anjali." Kavya retorts, "HECK NO!! Are u crazy we are going to strangle each other even before we get to college." Kripa laughs at her brother and sweetly replies, "Too bad, that's what you get for making me go get his lazy butt outta bed." Kavya groans. Kripa turns back to walk up the beautiful house and rings the doorbell. As soon as the door opens, Kripa rushes past a drop dead gorgeous girl and yells to her, "Kavya's waiting in the car for you Anjali, Prachi went with Neev. You guys carry on since you know how long your brother takes." The girl walks towards Kavya's car cursing her fate that she got stuck with him today and they leave for college.

Kripa finally makes her way up the stairs to wake up his highness. Oh Kripa was gonna give him a piece of her mind today for making her late today. She pushes the door open to see a shirtless, buff, and extremely gorgeous guy standing in the middle of his room while being surrounded by piles of clothing. "ANGAD!!!!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! PUT SOME DAMN CLOTHES ON SO WE CAN LEAVE!!" Angad replies coolly, "Chill woman! Almost gave me a heart attack and thank god you're here now help me figure out what to wear." Kripa groans and quickly finds a shirt and 10 minutes later Angad is finally ready. Kripa grabs Angad's arm and drags him down the stairs, nearly shoving him into his red convertible. Angad could tell Kripa was pretty upset with him and he was in for it today.

 

**********

As soon as they get to college, Angad and Kripa walk towards the entrance fully aware that everyone's eyes were on them and them alone. Their walk expresses it all, their attitude, their pride, their influence, and their popularity. They spot Josh and Aaliya along with the rest and take their spot by the entrance to begin ragging the freshman like any other year, however this experience was cut short for Angad, upon the arrival of his ex-girlfriend, Riya. Riya, in short, was a complete stalker and so very clingy. When Angad broke up with her, the next day she acted like nothing had happened and everything was fine… talk about in denial. He whispers, "Oh Shit!" and runs in the other direction to hide behind a tree. The whole gang turns to look in the direction Angad looked in before he made a run for it. Everyone gasps except for Kripa.

Kripa looks like someone has given her the best gift in the world.  She, unlike the others sees her revenge from Angad for him being late. Kripa looks at Riya and smirks as Riya made her way towards Kripa. She asks eagerly, "Hey Kripa, where is Angad?" Kripa looks over at Angad's direction to see him frantically moving his hands left and right, signaling Kripa to make Riya go away and not tell her anything. Instead of course, Kripa says, "Oh Angad, (pointing) he's behind that bush." As Riya turned to look in the direction Kripa pointed to, Angad's hands stop the frantic movement and rather turn into a hand wave, signaling "Hi". Kripa is hiding her laughter looking at Angad's pathetic state, oh yea and he looked super cheesy with the hand motion. She just walks away leaving poor Angad to fend for himself. He is making a mental note that Kripa is sooooo dead! Riya came up to Angad, "Where have you been I tried calling you all summer, how can you not call your own girlfriend?!?!?!" Angad says to himself,"Girlfriend????? OMG WHAT A PSYCHO!!! AHH!" Angad instead replies, "I got class… gotta go" and takes off before letting her respond.

He runs into the building, but stops due to the sound of laughter. He turns around to see Kripa grabbing her stomach laughing her head off. Kripa looks up as he says, "OH UR DEAD!" Kripa let out a shriek and runs in the other direction right into one of Angad's rivals and stops. She looks back to see intense eyes full of anger and hatred. Prithvi Bose. "WHAT THE ****!!! YOU LITTLE *****!"WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING!!" before Angad gets a chance to say something, Kripa slaps Prithvi across the face. Then Prithvi dares to raise his hand up to slap Kripa as well, but Angad catches his hand and has Prithvi by the collar and yells, "HOW DARE YOU TRY TO HIT HER?!" Prithvi skeptically "Figures, that your boy toy would come to defend you!" Angad enraged, " APOLIGIZE TO HER!" Prithvi scoffed,"HELL NO!" Angad replies calmly,"You asked for it" and Angad punchs him in the face and he falls to the ground. Angad advances further, but Kavya came and pulls him back. Prithvi gets up and leaves, but not before hearing Angad's last words, "YOU SAY SOMETHING TO HER AGAIN AND WATCH WHAT I DO TO YOU!". Prithvi pushes through the newly formed crowd and soon it begins to disperse.

Angad now turns to Kripa, who just looks like she was slapped in the face and is completely in shock. Angad is really concerned since no one had ever spoken to Kripa in such a horrible manner. "Kripa?? Your okay na?", he shakes her lightly after seeing no response. "Krips?" She replies softly "hmm". He asks again "Your okay rite? I would have killed him if Kavya hadn't stopped me. No one and I mean no one gets away with insulting my best friend!" Seeing the concern on Angad's face, she lightens up thinking she is so lucky to have a best friend like Angad. "Thanks Angad!" He asks confused, "For what?" She replies, "For defending me!" "Come on Krips your best friend, obviously I'll be there when you need me!" Kripa hopefully asks, "Always?" He gives her a kiss on the forehead and replied sweetly, "Always."
