Chapter 14- Let's make it right!!!
What is that one quote which makes you believe in love? Which is that one song you want to hear to restore your faith in relationships? When the last time that you thought to was let go, to give up, but, you didn't? Funny isn't it, when we think that all is going to be fine and nothing can go wrong, we face a new problem to deal with. We go through a lot every day. We want to give up every time, but we don't. We don't because we always believe relationships are worth everything. We believe that someone somewhere is made for us, our soul mate. As John Green said- Love is keeping the promise anyway."
***Excel college***
The college was all set for the fresher's party. Guys in bell-bottom jeans, big sunglasses, fedoras, big sunglasses, could be seen. While the girls carried the retro look with bell- bottoms, polka- dot shirts, the 90s sari and the retro hair buns. Purab who was the in charge of the food and beverages was checking if all was ready. Just then Abhi walked in the auditorium. Purab waved at him, they greeted each other.
Abhi, everything is set for the party.
Good.
Is everything all right? You seem disturbed.
Nothing buddy.
Purab knew something was wrong but he didn't want to interrogate any further. So he gave Abhi the space he needed.
***arora house***
Pragya was in her room thinking if she should go to the party or not. She was walking from one end to the other end with a book in her hand. Just then Sid walked in. he could see her disturbed and seeing her state he asked- oye!
Pragya looked at her brother with a confused expression and asked- what?
Sid walked up to her placed his hand on her shoulder and said- you say. What happened?
Nothing bhai, was just thinking if I should go for the party or not.
Of course you should. You will enjoy trust me.
So, you are going?

Just when he was about to get out from the room Pragya asked- is everything okay with you bhai?
It will be okay. He smiled and left.
***Excel college***
A girl dressed in an orange 90s sari, her hair tied in a bun, with the retro stilettos was busy rehearsing when a guy came in -
Neil, thank god! You are here, let's practice once before. With this dress I feel I will mess up. I hope I don't fall.
You won't. I am there.
Alia knew that voice. The voice broke her. Tears were forming in her eyes. She didn't want to look at him. She didn't want to be fragile again. She wanted to get away from there. Just then she could feel his presence near her. She turned around and as she lost her balance she was about to fall when Sid held her. They shared an eye lock.
I told you, I won't let you fall.
She was amazed by sids behavior. What has gotten into him? Is he having fever?
For how long do you plan to be like this in my arms?
Alia then with his help stood again and was about to leave when sid held her wrist and pulled her towards him. Alia didn't want to look at him, she was vulnerable. She tried freeing herself from him when sid spoke- you look beautiful, like always.
Alia looked at him shocked.
What? Why are you looking at me like this?
Alia pushed him from her and said- what's your problem? And why are you behaving like this?
Sid went near her and said- then you tell me, how should I behave with my girlfriend?
Listen, Sid stay away from me. And what do you mean by how should you behave with your girlfriend? Girlfriend? It struck to ala that Sid just now had called her his girlfriend. She looked at him, her face full of confusion and her eyes asking him questions.
I know alia, I am an idiot. I am fool that I broke your heart. I am so dumb that I couldn't ever realize what I felt for you. I kept on ignoring my feelings for you. But, I just want you to know that Alia Mehra, he got on his one knee and said- I love you.
Alias tears didn't stop. Sid has finally confessed his love for her. Sid got up seeing her tears and said- why are you crying?
Because of you.
I am sorry alia. I am really very sorry. He said holding his ears. He opened his arms for her and alia gave him a tight hug and said- I love you too Sid. I love you a lot. Sid placed a kiss on her forehead. A guy dressed in bell bottoms and a white shirt with black polka dots was witnessing this confession. The guy gave a thumps up to Sid .Sid smiled back at Neil.
***auditorium***
Bulbul was dressed in a black skirt and red knotted top. She had tied her hair in a puffed long pony tail. She looked like a 90s beauty. While guys couldn't stop gazing at her and girls complimenting her, she was busy looking out for Neil. Purab saw her looking out for someone. He walked towards her and made a conversation-
Looking for someone?
Hmm...nope...actually...
Its okay, Happens. By the way you look great. Retro look suits you.
Thank you. Why are you not in the retro look?
Actually...it's just that...
Its okay happens, right?
Right. He smiled and left.
Abhi was talking to the anchor of the party. Explaining her events lined up when he saw Pragya entering the auditorium. He was in awe. She looked stunning in the white dress with black polka dots. The dress had a velvet black ribbon on the waist line. The dress fitted her perfectly. She had left her hair open and there were no spectacles today. The girl noticed Abhi looking somewhere else.
Abhi?
Yes.
Who are you looking at?
No one, Abhi read her facial expression and said- she is sids sister.
Okay. Pragya right? Abhi nodded. The girl walked up to the Pragya and said-
You are looking very pretty Pragya.
Thank you. But, you are?
I am anjali gupta. I am sids friend.
Okay.
While Pragya and anjali got into a conversation, Abhi had his eyes glued to her and remembered their last night confrontation-
Yes she was my girlfriend. She is still my friend but what I feel for you is true.
I know Abhishek you love me. But I think we should give our relationship some time. Let's be friends first. I want to be your best friend, the one to who you won't lie, you won't hesitate sharing your feelings and whom you will trust.
It will be difficult. Us staying friends, right?
Yes! But, I believe it's the beginning of all.
