Part 2

IN THE ACADEMY DRESSING ROOM

(Manoj is Arnav's coach who runs a academy to train poor students who has passion towards tennis. Arnav always had a liking towards this nature of his coach though he was not poor. Hence he always spends some of his valuable time here when he is in town. Arnav is the favorite of all these young players. He is talking and giving gifts to the students there and Manoj comes there and looks at expensive gifts Arnav had got to his students)

Manoj - How many times to tell you not to get them such costly gifts... its not good Arnie...

Arnav - Master... Come on...Everytime same dialog...(Mocks at Manoj and students start laughing)

Manoj - Youuu... You are spoiling them...

Arnav - Naaa when they are getting trained under you they cannot be spoilt...because you teach the lessons of life along with tennis... (he gets emotional)

Manoj - Wah wah...dialog is of your own or from any movie? (Manoj never liked Arnav getting emotional so he always made the situation light)

Arnav - Master ji... you will never change (he comes and hugs)

Manoj - I don't want to... by the by...congrats...5th Wimbledon...I am so happy for you...

Arnav - Thank you ...(Smiles and breaks the hug...Sheetal unexpectedly comes in there...pitches into the dialog)

Sheetal - Next time you will congratulate me as well Manoj Sir...(Manoj looks at her with a confused expression)...you dint get it?? We both will win the mixed doubles title also ... Right Arnie??

Arnav - Lets see (His face expression changed drastically)

Sheetal - Ok...I that's overconfidence... Ok Manoj master if not for mixed doubles title...for being his life partner... (Manoj gives a disgusted look as she was speaking this in front of his students)

Manoj - Come on guys...warm up time...on the field...now (he walks to the field...followed by the students)

Sheetal - What Arnav???

Arnav - You very well know what I am talking about...Dont act smart

(Manoj comes there and coughs to make them aware of his presence...Sheetal doesn't care)

Sheetal - Nothing wrong in what I said Arnav...you just think over it with a cool head

Arnav - Youuu out of my site nowww... (Screams which makes Sheetal irritated and she walks off)

Manoj - Arnie...(puts his hand on Arnav's shoulder)..

Arnav - Master...(Composes himself)... I think I should be leaving now.

Manoj - Before that I want you to meet a girl

Arnav - A girl???

Manoj - Yes...a girl who is your fan and been asking me to introduce her to you from long time.

Arnav - Please master ji...not today...

Manoj - Arnie...for my sake... come on...

Arnav - Ok

Khushi - Listen you all are not going to tell Arnav that I am Khushi Gupta...I want to meet him as a normal girl not as a business man's daughter

All - Ok

Payal - But what will you address yourself as? (She sees Arnav and Manoj walking towards them).. See they came. Khushi no pranks ok...not with Arnav...he is known for his anger.

Khushi - Yeah...it is...but what to do...my parent's choice...

Arnav - Hmm... I heard you use to wait day and night to convince Master to make you meet me...

Khushi - yes...finally today my dream came true...

Arnav - Ok... (smiling).. tell me, why did you want to meet me so desperately...

Khushi - (Was confused now as she dint know how to react to this obvious question which she did not anticipate due to the excitement of meeting him...she just answered spontaneously)... I mean... I wanted to have a candle light dinner with you.. (Payal, Manoj and Arnav were shocked to hear this)

Arnav - What???

Khushi - Yes... I have...challenged with my friends that I will have candle light dinner with you...Please...dont deny...(she was making a puppy face)

Arnav - (He was just amazed by her guts to tell him even after the angry young man image the media had portrayed about him) Ok...will think about it...

Khushi - When will you tell ...(She hold his hand in joy)

Arnav - (Slowly removes her hand ) Sooon ...give your number to Master...he will call you and inform...

Manoj - Why me???

Arnav - Because you are the reason for this... (Winks)...I have to take a leave now... bye...(waves hand khushi also waves hand and keep looking at him going off the field...smiling to herself)
