PART-5
NEXT MORNING
School
Assembly
Everyone is present there in the assembly. Armaan, Atul, Rahul are together. Anjali is with some of her friends from the other section. Riddhima is with Muskaan and Sapna. today Riddhima looked quite normal and fr the first time she was actually paying attention towards the assembly. RIddhima for the first time in her realised that life is so beautiful even without Armaan. She was happy today from inside because for the first time Armaan will not be able to hurt her, she wont let him do that. She has learnt to move on in life and that's why today she was all happy.....happy that now no more she will hurt herself...happy that now nomore armaan will be pissed off ...happy that nobody now will be embarrased by her. She smiled to herself and for the first time not even once looked at Arman. Anjali noticed it and was quite happy. she felt happy for her sister. She felt happy that her ridzii will no more run after a man who doesnt even cares for her but deep down she always hoped that Riddhima gets her love Armaan which was not possible and that's why she always wanted Riddhima to forget him.....she always wanted to make Riddhima realsie that she deserves somebody better than Armaan...somebody who'll respect her feelings...somebody who'll love her the way she is. Deep down her she always knew that if she does a makeover of Riddhima then even Armaan will also fall for her because she was beautiful..it's only that the way she dressed herself and her stupid hairstyle that nobody ever realsed that she is beautiful. but Anjali didnt wanted that to happen because she knew that would be a cheating indirectly and she knew that wont do her sister any good. Anjali wanted Armaan to love her sister the way she is and not the changed Riddhima. She knew that Armaan wont ever accept riddhima the way she is and that's why she hated it whenever Riddhima showed her concerned towards Armaan or was running after him because she knew that Riddhima would end up hurting herself in the last. But today she was happy that her sister had finally learnt her lesson and will not hurt herself from now on. She looked at Riddhima who was attentively listening to the Principal's speech and was not even looking at Armaan. riddhima had a glint in her eyes which sed that she was happy today.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Class room
Riddhima goes and sits in one of the seats. All the other students come and sit. Now left are Rahul, Armaan &Muskaan.
RA:[to armaan]:oh no maan!! ab Riddhima to tujhe apne paas baithne ke liye bulayegi aur mujhe iss junglee billi ke saath baithna padega
AR:relax man..itna tensed kyun ho raha hai aur waise bhi main Riddhima ke bulane se uske paas jake nahi baithne wala
RA:sure
AR:[blank face]
RA:accha accha samajh gaya man
AR:chal abhi to wo mereko dekh kar kahegi "armaan yahan baitho na plzz{wid a stupid smile on her face"[mimicking her]
RA:[feels sorry fr the poor girl]
AR:chal dude get ready for the fun
Armaan, Rahul proceed towards the seat behind Riddhima. Muskaan is behind them and has nt heard anything
AR:[to rahul]:abhi dekhna bulaygi"armaan"[mimicking her]
but to his surprise Riddhima didnt say anything infact she didnt even bothered to look at them. Armaan and Rahul were quite surprised. Muskaan came and sat with her. Anjali noticed it and was quite happy. Riddhima turned back{while she was turning back armaan thought that she is going to say something to him so he was about to mock at her when he realsed that she hasnt turned back to look or stare him} to look at Anjali. Anjali gave her a smile and Riddhima too smiled back.
TEACHER entered the class room
TE:[to the students]have you all done ur assignment????
ST:[except fr Armaan]:yess sir
TE:[to armaan]u armaan?? wat abt you??u must hav done it?? after all aajkal aap apne saare assignments time par poora kar lete hai!!!!
AR:[stammering]..wo...wo sir....ac...actually {and from the corner of his eyes he was looking at Riddhima because Riddhima was the only person who saved him in such situations though he never liked it but always hoped that she would save him whenever sir is going to give any assignment because he knew Riddhima always did his homework even before completing hers............he genuinely hated her but this was the time when he really hoped that Riddhima will help her and she too never disappointed him...she always did his homework though he never liked it but still he always wanted it but today to his utter dismay she didnt said anything to the teacher infact she didnt even reacted and that is wat surprised him the most}
TE:yes armaan im listening speak out
AR:wo..wo sir actually i cudnt do my homework because i wasnt well yesterday that's why
TE:always ready with an excuse nyways this shudnt happen the next time
After the class is over there is a break of 15 mins. They all go to the cafeteria except for Riddhima.
At the table:
AT:hey Musky Riddhima kaha hai???
MU:usne kaha wo nahi ayegi
RA:kyun???
MU:wo.....{b4 muskaan cud complete the sentence Armaan interuppted}
AR:arre yaar kya farak padta hai,..nyways aaj to araam se apni coffee enjoy kar paunga
{he notice Riddhima entering the cafeteria}"oh no naam liya aur chali aayi ye behenji"
And starts laughing loudly. Riddhima heard what he said but didnt reacted.She came inside the cafeteria and sat with some other girls instead of joining there gang.
AT;[frm his seat only}:hey Riddhima!!!
RI{looked towards him}:hiii
AT:{called her for minute}:ek minute idhar aao
RI:[went there and stood near Anjali]:kya hua Atul??
AT:tum waha kya kar rahi ho???aur aaj hamare saath kyun nahi baith rahi ho???why dont you join us??? we are a group after all
RI:no Atul i dont want to disgust or embarrass or irritae anyone of you.
RA:wat yaar??wat r u saying???and you are our friends so why dont you join us
RI:i have learnt my lesson Rahul...there was a time when i desperately wanted to be a part of ur group....i always tried to join u guys.......there was one day when there was not a single seat left for me...though you{rahul} wanted to give ur seat but ur best friend stopped you from doing so...i was so hurt that day.....but that day i didnt realised that i am an UNWANTED here..but i have realised it now......i think it's better to be late than to be never.
Armaan was listening to all this and did feel bad but didnt say anything.
MU:ye tu kya rahi hai Riddhima???humse koi galti hui hai kya??? tu to meri best friend hai yaar fir tujhe aisa kyun laga???
RI:Muskaan, Rahul,Atul,Sapna tum sab mere bahut acche dost ho aur rahoge aur Anjali di to is world ki best di hai{anjali smiles} lekin phir bhi maine decide kiya hai ki aaj ke baad main unhi logo se baat karungi jo mujhse baat karna chahte hai
AT:aur humara kya Riddhima??kya tumse baat nahi karna chahte??? dekho Riddhima agar tumhe kisi ek particular insaan se problem hai to tum usse baat na karo but plse uss wajah se humse to apni dosti mat khatam karo...after all we too r ur friends..
RI:but A
AT:i dont wanna listen anything ur joinig us
RI:okay {she knew there is no point in arguing}
so finally Riddhima too joined them but for the first time instead of going and sitting beside Armaan...she came and sat besides Rahul.
All of them had their coffee and left for their classes.
In their way back to the class room Atul said to Armaan " i think tune kuch jyada hi bol diya tha usko......u hav hurted her badly warna aaj tak usne iss tarah kabhi nahi behave kiya"
AR:[indifferently]:chod na yaar waise bhi use koi farak nahi padhne wala...bas tum logo ki sympathy ke liye kar rahi hai ye sab
and goes away from there leaving Atul behind.
AT:[to himself]:lekin maine aaj pehli baar uski aankhon mein tere liye koi feelings nahi dekhi..na nafrat aur na hi pyaar
