Author's Note: Heyya guys! So sorry for the late update. In compensation, I have made this chapter long...over 2k words! Hope u like it! Do leave ur feedback!
CHAPTER 8
An envelope was delivered to each student in FITE by the third year students, who were responsible for the cultural ceremony and opening night of the annual tech-fest 'VISTAS'. The envelope contained information regarding dress code and other details for the opening night.
All students were requested to wear "Black" outfit. There would be performances, both solo and group, by designated students and finally the night would end with a 'collaboration dance' segment, as a part of 'getting to know' the students of other colleges.
The cultural night marked the beginning of this week long fest and all the students of FITE were ready to give it their best shot and make it a perfect night.
"Kaustuki...yaar..." said Sanyukta, pulling a disgusted face, "Mere paas ek bhi dhang ke kapde nhi hain...kya pehnu mein...upar se black color hona zaruri hain..."
"Sanyukta, u worry too much", her bestie replied, "Wear that black saree u bought last week...that is beautiful.."
"But I don't have accessories to match it...What are u wearing by the way?" asked Sanyukta.
"Don't worry about accessories, I have plenty and u can borrow. I am wearing the black dress Jiggy gave me for my birthday..."
"Omg!! Woh wala...that is sooo pretty...u know what, I will be the most under-dressed person tonight...I just know it" lamented Sanyukta.
"Oh come on Sanyukta, ab kuch zyada hi ho raha hain...I will dress u up and then I would like to see who calls u under-dressed" replied a determined Kaustuki.
"Thanks Kaustuki, tumhare bina mein kya karti", Sanyukta replied smiling.
Meanwhile in the boys hostel, Jiggy had changed thrice...and all three times he was hugely disappointed by the way he looked.
"Arey yaar...bas bhi kar...jaisa shakal waisa hi dikhega na...toh itna mehnat bekar mein kyun kar raha hain?" spoke an irrited Randhir, when Jiggy was about to try the fourth black shirt.
"Randhir bhai, kya baat kartein hain aap? Arey mera izzat ka sawal hain. Kaustuki toh waise bhi kitni khubsurat dikhegi...if I don't dress up well, she will be embarrased", Jiggy replied worriedly.
"Tu aur teri kaustuki...dimaag kharab karke rakh diya mera...yeh le..pehen..aur nikal yahan se.." replied Randhir and handed Jiggy one of his suits.
An overjoyed Jiggy thanked him a million times and finally Randhir had to literally shove him out of the room.
"Peace" he thought once Jiggy left and started getting ready himself.
His thoughts wandered towards her...he wondered what she would be wearing. Now that he thought of it, he had never seen her in anything except kurti-patiala. He smiled mentally thinking how simple she was. A girl who loved 'machines' instead of 'make-up'.
"That's it Randhir...STOP thinking about Sanyukta...get a grip man" he mentally chided himself.

-CULTURAL NIGHT-
Vidushi Kumar was wearing a dress she had borrowed from a senior.
"Isi se kaam chalana padega...mere dresses toh isse bhi ugly hain" she thought.
She came to the FITE ground that had been miraculously transformed for the event. The lighting took the entire space to a whole new dimension. The atmosphere was surreal.
Vidushi looked around to find students huddled in groups at various corners, some chatting rapidly, while others enjoying the drinks and other delicacies being served at the stalls that had been set up.
She caught sight of a very handsome guy, standing alone in a corner, a glass of coke in his hands, lost in his thoughts.
Getting a glass of coke for herself, Vidushi approached the guy and asked "Are u waiting for someone?"
The guy broke out of his trance and replied, "No no...I am just...just enjoying the party..."
"I see" smiled Vidushi. The guy was handsome and Vidushi sought her chance.
"I am Vidushi by the way...from FITE...U are..??"
"I am Parth from RCE" the guy replied with a small smile. Vidushi nearly choked on her coke but somehow kept her composure.
"Part-h" she half-stammered, "Really nice to meet u..."
She could not believe it. She was standing there conversing with the guy whose project she stole and he had no idea about it.
"Waah Vidushi, waah...kya chal khela tuney.." she thought.

The gel Kaustuki put in her hair, made it shine even more. The saree clung on to her figure, showing her perfect curves. It fit her in just the right places. It was simple black saree with golden border and she carried it with perfection.
The danglers that she borrowed from Kaustuki were butterfly shaped and matched her attire. She wore a set of black glass bangles on her right hand and a stunning bracelet on her left.
The light make-up on her face just enhanced her features. In short, Sanyukta Agarwal looked flawless.
And Kaustuki stood marvelling at her effort!!
"Dekho Sanyukta..see how u look..." Kaustuki urged.
Sanyukta turned and looked into the mirror and her smile faltered. Her own face looked irrecognizable to her.
"Wow" she whispred, "Thanks Kaustuki...wow!"
"Thanks mat bolo...u are my best friend Sanyu" came the reply.
Kaustuki herself looked quite the diva. Her mid-lenght dress showed her perfect figure, her hair curled and eyes done smoky. And the red lipstick was the show-stealer!
Satisfied with the way they looked, the two best friends decided to join the party. No sooner had they made their entry, all eyes were glued to them. And Sanyukta realized witha jolt that they were by far the best looking girls in the event!
"See, I told u we will rock", said a proud Kaustuki. Sanyukta smiled a radiant smile.
"Kaustuki...U look beautiful dear" a blushing Jiggy muttered, "U look nice too Sanyukta."
"Thanks Jiggy" replied the girls.

Randhir Singh Shekhawat never failed to be the crowd-puller in social events, all thanks to his killer looks and deadly-aura.
Clad in black jeans and white shirt with a black coat to top it, Randhir looked like a run-away model. And he had girls drooling & vying for his attention. He had come to the event with Karan, who didn't look so bad himself.
But randhir had eyes for only one person. He scanned the crowd until his gaze fell on her.
"My God...she looks stunning..." was his first thought.
Sanyukta was laughing at some joke that Jiggy had cracked, unaware that a pair eyes was drinking in her every move.
"Randhir...kahan khoya hua hain?" Karan interrupted his thoughts. Randhir broke his gaze but it was too late. Karan had followed his eyes and realized that he had been watching Sanyukta.
"Ohho...toh yeh baat hain!" Karan teased, "She is hot yaar, i must admit."
And for the first time in his life Randhir was disgusted by something his best friend said. Seeing Karan look at Sanyukta with lust made his blood boil. He didn't know when had grown so protective of her.
To Randhir's relief, just then a girl from FITE asked Karan to dance with her. And Karan went ahead. Randhir got a coke for himself and watched Sanyukta who was now sitting in one of the chairs watching Kaustuki and Jiggy dance.
On an impulse he got up and approached her.
"So Miss Agarwal...I see u took the pain to dress up..." he couldn't help but tease her. He knew he should give her some compliment, but being bull-headed that he was, taunts are the only thing that he could utter.
She looked up, surprised to see him.
"Randhir!" she smiled, "Tum party mein aaye...I thought u won't come!"
"Oh I couldn't miss the chance to see Miss Farzi in a saree now, could I?" he replied winking at her.
"Shut up yaar!" Sanyukta groaned, "Aaj toh apna bakwas bandh karo.."
He merely smirked and sat next to her.
"Toh pura evening yahin baithe rahoge ya kuch karne ka irada hain?" he finally asked her.
"Kya karne ka irada?" sanyukta replied, bewildered.
"Wanna dance?" he asked.
"D-dance" her smile faltered, "I...with you?...Umm.."
"Kyun, koi problem hain? Nervous?" he teased. He was enjoying the effect he had on her. He could see her getting fidgety and he loved it!
But she was Sanyukta Agarwal. She never backed down.
"Nervous? In your dreams MCP...Let's dance...and I will prove to u that I am a better dancer" she replied.
"Dance mein bhi competition...yeh ladki pagal hain.." Randhir thought, but knew better not to retort.
And so, Randhir and Sanyukta took to the dance floor. It was a rare sight. Two people who 'hated' each other months back, were now dancing at their college fest!
Randhir took her left hand in his right, while she placed her right hand on his shoulder. Sanyukta shivered at the proximity. And when Randhir's left hand made its made around her waist, she blushed a deep shade of red.
"What's wrong Agarwal? Why are u blushing?" he whispered in her ears.
"What rubbish Randhir...just dance, will you?" she retorted.
The lights on the dance floor were dimmed. Sanyukta looked up to his face and couldn't help but admire his looks. His brown orbs gazed into her grey ones. And they swayed with the rhythm in perfect sync.
The moment was magical for both...they were so lost in each other that they forgot to pass snide remarks. At that very moment it was just the two of them, dancing their hearts away!
The music ended bringing them back to reality.
They let go off each other a little awkwardly. What had started off as a casual dance turned intense leaving both of them flabbergasted.
"Umm...that was..nice.." Sanyukta muttered, embarrased.
Randhir smirked, "Just nice farzi? I thought that was intense." So saying he left her, all-the-while smiling to himself about what just happened.
Sanyukta's mind was doing a happy-dance of her own. The images from their dance kept playing in her head as she made her way out of the party, in search of Kaustuki.
On the way, she bumped into someone.
"I am so sorry" she apologised and looked up to find that it was Parth along with Vidushi.
"Parth! Hi.." she said.
"Sanyukta, have u seen Randhir?" he asked her.
"Randhir? Yeah, he was with me and just went that way" Sanyukta replied pointing in the right direction, "But why are u searching for him?" she asked, remembering what Randhir had told about Parth being a creepy and competitive guy.
"Because Sanyukta, he stole my project", Parth spat in anger.
"What??? He WHAT?? Oh no no...u must be misteaken. Why would Randhir steal ur project?? He doesn't need to..." Sanyukta spoke horrified by the accusation.
"Sanyukta, trust me...I spoke with him the other day...and I realized that he is a self-conceited jerk who can go to any lenghts to be the best. So please don't defend him. I know he is behind this and I won't let him get away with it.." Saying this he walked away, leaving a stunned Sanyukta behind.
And Vidushi who had witnessed this entire conversation thought, "Wow!! I can't believe it...Parth thinks Randhir stole his project...Waah! Carry on u idiots! Ultimate faida toh mujhe hone wala hain.."
~0~
Meanwhile, after dancing with Sanyukta, Randhir had decided to return to his hostel. But before that, he wanted to finish the last minute adjustments on their project. The fest was just a day away and he wanted to be as prepared as possible. He knew he should call Sanyukta as well, but he decided that she needed a night off with her friends and so he went alone.
He went towards the mechanical lab. The corridors were empty. All students were at the party. He opened the door and entered the lab. But the sight that met his eyes left him aghast. Their whole windmill project was lying on the floor. It looked like someone had purposefully destroyed it... But who?
Randhir was fuming with anger. He had worked so hard on this project and so had Sanyukta. And now everything had been destroyed.
He took out his phone and dialled Sanyukta's number.
"Hello" came her voice.
"Sanyukta, u better come to the lab soon.."
"Randhir? Lab?? But why? What's wrong?"
"Just get down here quick...It's a mess" he said and hung up.
~0~
Sanyukta was tensed all the way to the lab. Randhir had sounded agitated. She knew something was wrong. But what??
She reached the lab and saw randhir sitting at the desk, his head rested on his hands, looking defeated.
And then she saw the reason behind it...their ruined project..
"Oh my God!"
