Anjali's clothes Ray's clothes Aliyah's clothes 
Riddhima's clothes Armaan's clothes 
They walked in, to be greeted by the familiar scent of the hospital. It felt like they had an old acquaintance with this place. They had been here once before with their parents. But walking through the front doors, with their own identities, held it's own importance.
As they turned in to the corridor leading to Dr Kirti's cabin, they felt a little apprehensive wondering about meeting her and their fellow interns who they would be working with during the coming year at this prestigious hospital.
One of the guys turn around, as they walked in; Anjie recognised him to be the guy that helped them out yesterday.
Armaan turned around to be greeted by her astounding beauty, once again. Without realising it he muttered her name
"
Riddhima"
"What did you say?" Atul asked, he turned to see what his best friend was staring at, then he saw the 2 girls again. "ohh! So that's what you were staring at..
oho! you even remember her name…" Atul nudged him.
"Huh? no…I said… '
ridhu ma called today'" Armaan covered up quickly.
"Huh? whos that? Mums name's not Ridhu" he questioned.
"No no… I wasn't talking about mum…I was talking about erm…
mums- uncles- nephews- daughters- friends mum" Armaan said waving it off with his hand.
"Kya kya kya?" Atul asked bewildered.
Just then they were interrupted
"Hey guys, do you remember us?" Anjie said, walking up to them. They seemed to be muttering profusely to each other oblivious to their entrance.
"Oh yeah, hey!! Erm…
what was your name again? Sorry we don't remember…" Atul said a bit embarrassed. "Oh that's no problem, we don't remember your names either" Anjali said, as they all laughed, except Armaan who just seemed to be lost in his own world.
"Hi my name's Anjali and this is my younger sister Riddhima"
"Nice to meet you both, the names Atul and this is my friend Armaan" Atul gestured towards a lost Armaan. Then they all started talking about the internship, and Dr Kirti – their mentor. Whilst Armaan was once again lost in his own thoughts, remembering yesterdays encounter.
He saw her brush strands of hair off her face, he couldn't help himself
See how she leans her cheek upon her hand:
O that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek. Damn it!!! Janab-e-Shakespeare aap ki wajah se meri ye haalat hai…
Romeo ko maar diya… abhi mujhe bhi maarne ka iraada hai… Snap out of it Armaan, why were you reading the Shakespeare collective poems edition last night…Ye Shakespeare bhi naa…Armaan smirked to himself.
Riddhima turned to look at him just in time as his dimples appeared on his cheek.
He's being really quite…I wonder, is he always like this…no he cant be, he was very talkative at the multiplex yesterday…and I wonder what he's smiling about. But then again what isn't there to smile about… he's the most gorgeous guy I've ever seen, and those grey eyes…who knew a dull colour like grey could be so lively? It's so easy to get lost in them…and those dimpled cheeks are to die for…Soooo cute.
OMG ridz!! What are you thinking?? Tum tau usse janti bhi nahin ho…She now smiled to herself, as she saw him trying to converse with his friend and Anjie.
"So what are you all talking about?" Armaan asked trying to join their conversation.
Atul and Anjie were too busy discussing how Dr Kirti would be like? and what they will be doing on their first day? Taking no notice of Armaan.
"Its Armaan right; nice name" Riddhima asked sweetly trying to start a conversation with him.
"Yea, thanks, guess we'll be colleagues now Riddhima, so how was the chocolate cake then?" Armaan said with a smirk on his face remembering yesterday's incident.
"Urmmmm… It was very nice, you were right… thanks for helping me because after you left, Di came and she bought raspberry and I tasted some and it was yuck." She said while screwing up her face.
She looked like an angel with that face, he thought. "Its ok, the pleasure was all mine." Armaan said, truly meaning what he said.
As they continued to chat amongst themselves, the other three interns stepped in to the cabin. The 4 turned around to look at the new arrival, one guy (Ray) and two girls (Aaliyah and Sapna), they were about to familiarise with each other when they heard another voice from behind them,
"Settle yourself down interns!!"
A lady in her mid thirties wearing formal clothes (white shirt and black trousers) walked in through the door behind the new arrivals and took her seat in front of the desk.
The interns thought you wouldn't want to get on her bad side; she didn't even retaliate to Atul's smile.
She took the register, after which she introduced herself.
"My name is Dr Kirti, and I am going to be your mentor for the coming year, I will be assigning you duties and you will be reporting back to me" She turned around and gave them all piercing gaze before continuing "I am glad you all are on time, because I hate latecomers"
At this Ray smirked to himself
"Would you like to share the joke with us Mr-" she looked at the clipboard in her hand and said "
Rehan khan?"
Ray cleared his throat "No ma'am"
Dr. Kirti then read his t-shirt and frowned, "appropriate attire Mr Khan, it suits your personality" she said sarcastically.
"thats what my dad said in the morning" Ray muttered, whilst Armaan who, was standing next to him, smiled.
Ray thought to himself
she's gonna be a hard nut to crack.
"Did you say something?" Dr Kirti asked raising her eye brows
"No ma'am" Ray said looking down at his shoes.
"I thought so" she said smiling sardonically "where was I, before being rudely interrupted, ah yes…you will all collect your scrubs, pagers and ID cards at the security desk, Nurse Lovely who is waiting outside, will take you there, after that you will have 2 hours to familiarise yourself with the hospital and your fellow interns" Dr Kirti looked at them once again and said
"Then at
10:00 you will all go to the conference room, to be greeted by Dr. Shashank- the chief of Sanjeevani, I want you all to be there on time"
They all nodded their heads, looking like little school children being told off by a teacher.
************************************************************ ************
LOCKER ROOM "Yeh raha aap logo ka locker room ji" Nurse lovely said.
They had already collected their belongings at the security desk and were brought to the locker room by Nurse Lovely. She gave them their locker number and keys.
They all stared at the locker room that they were going to be spending a lot of time in, tracing their hands over their lockers.
"Hi, my name's Sapna Patel" she said smiling to the intern whose locker was next to hers, as he finished putting his things in his locker.
"Hey Sapna" Atul said "Patel huh? You must be gujju" he said giving his cheesy smile. "My names Atul Joshi" Atul shook her hands.
"Joshi? Gujju huh?" Sapna said cheekily, mirroring the tone Atul had used earlier.
"Yes he's gujju, but don't expect him to be able to speak Gujarati" Armaan said joining the conversation, whilst putting things in his locker, Sapna laughed once more.
"By the way my names Armaan Mallik" he said putting his hand out for her to shake.
"Nice to meet you Armaan, and how do you know his gujju is useless?"
"Simple, I grew up with him" Armaan said whilst closing his locker.
"Yep Chaddi buddies" Atul added, at this Armaan rolled his eyes.
"Hey guys are we allowed to join the conversation, or is it just a three way" Anjali asked, she was sitting on the bench listening to their conversation, whilst Riddhima was fixing her ID on to her white coat.
"Hi my names Anjali you can call me Anjie" She said putting her hand out for Sapna to shake, Sapna was about to introduce herself when Anjie said "and you're Sapna, I heard"
"This is my sister Riddhima" she gestured to Riddhima who just shut her locker.
"Hi, but you can call me Ridz" Riddhima put her hand forward.
Ray was leaning against his locker admiring all the girls, contemplating on which one to flirt with first.
Aaliyah was busy stuffing things into her locker; she quickly shut it and said
"Hi my names Aaliyah"
Everyone looked at her…even Armaan, who was once again lost in riddhimas beauty, stared.
"
What?" Aaliyah asked feeling self conscious.
"You have such a
British accent!!" Atul said, his eyebrows were bobbing up and down again, staring curiously at Aaliyah.
Aaliyah laughed, sighing with relief. She thought that maybe they were all staring at her because she forgot to put her pants on or something.
"That's because I am from Britain…duh!" She said grinning. In her mind she was brewing up a little plan.
golmaal hain bhai sab golmaal hain "
OH, she's from Great Britain, where they walk and talk and do everything else British" Ray said imitating a British accent, whilst smirking and waving his hand imitating the Queen.
"Oh haha, very funny
Mr-?" Aaliyah asked
"Ray" he said winking at his first shikaar.
"Full name please" she said smiling mockingly
"Rehaan Khan…
naam tau sunna hoga"
Aaliyah was about to retort when Atul said
"
HAA maine naam sunna hain!!"
Everybody looked at Atul and started laughing.
Whilst ray was thinking
lagta hain larkiyaan se zyaada mein larkau kau impress kar raha hoon... "Arrey guys! im serious" Atul scratched his head
Ray was just staring at Atul with a pathetic expression on his face, when he recognised Atul…
Hailaa!!Rehaan agar usne tumhe pehchaan liya, tau teri izzat ki tau waat lagayi… "Atul how do you know him?" Armaan asked perplexed looking at Atul.
But before Atul can answer back, Ray cut in
"
Dudes..." he looked at the girls and added "
Dudettes, do you all just wanna sit here and chat?" he asked "or '
familiarise yourself with the hospital'" Ray imitated Dr Kirti.
"Wah kya nakal mari!" Atul said
"I get it from my dad" He popped his collar.
