"Nani!" Riddhima shouted in glee, as an old figure opened the door of the gupta masion.
"Riddhima.." Nani hugged Riddhima tight. Since childhood, Nani had never left Riddhima alone after her mothers death. This was the 1st time she had left riddhima alone for months, and she had really missed taking care of the careless, reckless and chirpy riddhima.
"I love you nani" Riddhima's eyes got moist when she saw tears flowing down nani's cheeks.
"I love you too." Nani rubbed her tears away and smiled😊
After a happy union of the duo, Nani's gaze fell on the handsome hunk, standing in the corner witnessing the entire scene and smiling to himself.
"Arre, yeh kon hai?" Nani looked at Armaan.
Riddhima had completely forgotten about Armaan, well she dint even want to remember him 😆.
"Oh!" Riddhima got remembered about the project
"Namaste Nani, Main Armaan. Armaan Malik." Armaan folded his hands and smiled at nani.
"Namaste beta, andar aao na."
All three of them walked inside the house. This was the first time he had met Anjali's and riddhima's nani. Though he had come to pick up Anjali numerous time. He felt happy, content.
"Baitho." Nani smiled at Armaan and continued.."Riddhi, andar aa" she glared at riddhima.
Riddhima had seen that coming. She quietly followed nani to the kitchen.
"Kon hai yeh?" Nani was furious and scared about a guy coming to drop riddhima home. 😆
"arre nani....😆😆 yeh mera boyfriend nahi hai! Itna tension kyun leti ho aap 😆😆...mujhe iske saath ek project karna hai. isiliye aya hai😊" Riddhima giggled hard at her cute nani and hugged her.
"Tu mujhse kuch chupa rahi hai?" 😆😆
"awwwww..😆🤗....nahi nani, aap ko lagta hai main aapko nahi bataungi?😊 trust me.😊"
"hmm..chal tu bahar jakar baith, maine tere liye aaj kuch banaya hai. special dish.😊"
"Arre waaah!" Riddhima like a kid made a greedy face rubbing her hands.
"Kya hai nani?" She started looking around like sherlock homes😆😆
"Nah, aise nahi...bahar jaa..[:D" and riddhima made her way to the hall..

❤️ MAYANK-NUPUR ❤️
The sun was setting slow, making the horizon looking reddish blue. It was late evening. The cafe was slightly empty. Only a few couples sat in the corner apart from mayank nupur. The breeze was soft and still. Mayank still engrossed in nupur, while nupur engrossed in the book.
The atmosphere getting chilly, carried mayank along with itself. Mayank was totally lost in Nupur Bhushan,
"Yeh chapter toh ho gaya.." Nupur closed the book tight to find mayank still staring at her.
"What the hell!😡 Tum abhi bhi mujhe hi dekhe jaa rahe ho. Sharam nahi ati?😡" Nupur obviously had over reacted due to her awkwardness.
Mayank had as if broken from a deep sleep.. "Hmmm, kya?"
"Dekho, stay in your limits alright?😡"
"what the hell did I do?😡"
"You want me to SAY IT NOW?😡 Guys like you....disgusting!" Nupur turned her face away. Mayank stood up immediately. And now, the entire cafe body was staring at the pair, horror-striken.
"Look, mind your words" Mayank's patience was giving up.
"When you can't mind your attitude and EYES! why should i mind my words?😡"
"Fine. then main chala jaata hu!" Saying this Mayank left. Nupur cursed her faith of getting THE WORST PATNER.

❤️~ Month's later. ~❤️
As said, time waits for none, it has been about months since the excel college has started. With time, something things changed, while some remained the same.
The mayank-nupur fighting intesity had drastically increased. It was such a huge record now that, people were too scared to get them the same place. Their differences dint reduce at all. Both of them preferred maintaining a distance from each other, while others agreed, to prevent another world war.
Armaan-Riddhima, on the other hand, were now shared a great bonding, loved each others company. They both met each other, spoke to each other every single day. And if that dint happen, it would result in a disastrous mood on both the sides. Though they dint stop fighting, but they had begun to understand each other.
Samrat-Gunjan, the latest college besties. They were almost like a couple now. Though both of them called each other "best friends😉" but were inseparable. Samrat followed Gunjan almost everywhere she went, while gunjan couldnt just see Samrat in problems. Everyday after college, Samrat and gunjan went to a small tea stall to have "kesar ki chai" after which Sammy dropped Gunjan home. The entire girl gang of the college was jealous of their bonding.

Mayank got himself ready, looking handsome, as usual. And entered a huge but extra messy bedroom. In the center of the bedroom lay two separated beds, where two angelic soul's slept in the most awkward postions possible.
Sarmat Shergil and Armaan Malik, who were the college hunkies, wonderfully utilised the entire bed space, threw their hands and legs in different parts of the bed 😆😆
Mayank walked towards Armaan's bed first. "Get up!" Mayank shook the blanket slightly, to find none in it.😲
"Ab yeh kaha reh gaya?😲" Immediately, mayanks gaze when on the floor, on the other side of the bed, where armaan slept nicely 😆😆
"Yeh neeche so raha hai!😲🤣" Mayank let out a silent laugh and walked on the other side.
"Uth oye!" Mayank kicked Armaan and Samrat, who slept like literal kumbhkarans.
"Abe, kya hai?😡" Armaan spoke half dreamily in his sleep.."Sone de na!" he shouted again and cutely drift back to sleep.
"Oye! College jana hai..Who told you both to party that late?? ab kumbhkarno, utho!" Mayank kicked armaan and sammy again.
Armaan & Sammy still dint answer and continued hibernating in their respective postions 😆😆😆
"Armaan....uthta hai ki riddhima ko balau?" Mayank whispered in armaan's ears and armaan got up with a jump 🤣🤣
"riddhima, kaha hai riddhima?😲😲😲" Armaan's popping out eyeballs looked around for riddhima...😆😆
"Riddhima,hmmm...😉 Ummm...😃...*thinks for a while, with armaan waiting😆* Nahi hai 😆 ab jaa jaake naha le!😡" Mayank proudly left the room. Armaan currently felt like killing his bestie mayank who left giggling
"Saala kameena..! abe samrat ke bachche, chal uth!😡" Armaan shouted and got up.
