Okay.

You can hit me with chappals and jootas and rotten tomatoes and eggs. I will say nothing. Because I deserve worse. 😭 I haven't updated two of my stories and I am starting with the third. I know my readers are pissed. You hate me, I know. I hate myself for it, too. 😡 But believe me I've been trying to write both my stories since a month and I just end up with no result. I'm not giving up yet. I'm trying, but I need time. Sorry won't be enough. So I'm not saying it. 😒

As for this story, here is the prologue. I will not be giving out the plot details now. Try to guess. 😉

PROLOGUE

December 27, 2014

8:00 AM

Bhopal

Jaane kaun ho,
Par ho tum kahin.

I close my eyes as soon as the lyrics escape my lips.

I breathe.

I continue.

Hai dil ko mere yaqeen...

I am aware of those little whispers of appreciation which pass through the small number of people in front of me.

And it's not the first time I have heard such compliments.

But each time feels like the first time.

I continue again.

Na hai Ibteda,

Na hai Intehaa,

Hai meri dastaan wahi...

I continue singing.

Drowning in the sensation this music was causing me.

Shutting out the world around me.

Basking in the happiness coursing through me as I blew out the diamonds of music.

Beintehaa...

Beintehaaa...

I stop as I reach the end of the song.

There is silence.

A silence so deadly that I can almost hear it.

I open my eyes.

I see smiles.

I see sparkling eyes.

I see mirth.

And then I hear them.

The claps.

The cheers.

The laughter.

I see so many faces, old and wrinkled, smiling up at me.

Mission accomplished.

Dream over.

Back to reality.

Same Day

9:00 PM

Mumbai

Tera sukoon,

Ya junoon tera.
Teri khushi,

Ya tera gham...

The disco lights glare in front of me, blocking my vision.

But there are some things I can definitely make out.

I look around in triumph as the crowd roars again, louder, this time. I look around to see my poster, our posters held high in the crowd.

We have swept the audience off their feet once again.

As usual.

I strum the guitar harder as I raise my pitch, raising the audience's pitch as well.

Jo bhi jiya, woh jiya meine,
Jo bhi kiya, tujhse kiya.

I hear the crowd screaming our names as we make them forget the world around them.

This isn't the first time, this isn't new.

We are used to this.

We are used to this glory, this prestige, this victory.

We have earned it.

Never have we ever taken a 'no' for an answer.

I take a deep breath and put every ounce of energy left in me as I sing the last line of today's concert.

Beintehaa...

Beintehaaa...

And the crowd erupts in cheers.

***

Do let me know what you think though I don't deserve any of it.

Any idea what it is about?

Buddy mystories_PM for updates.

And I'm so sorry. :(

Welcome To SPACE: School of Performing Arts and Creative Education

Welcome to SPACE Academy, the most expensive music college of the country. Where the students are blue blooded, the cars are swanky and the lifestyle nothing short of opulent.

MEET THE FAB 5

The coolest band of the Space Academy.

ZAIN

The guy your mum, dad and basically everyone else warned you about!

Usually Spotted: Surrounded by a gaggle of admirers. It's a tough job catering to each one of them, but well; someone has got to do it.

How the world knows him: Sinfully hot, uber rich, spoilt rotten, ultra talented with an attitude to match.

How his friends know him: A sensitive guy with a heart of gold who he keeps guarded under multiple layers of bravado. Sightings were rare, but that guy is definitely in there somewhere.

MUKTI

Never look her directly in the eye. A certified wildcat who isn't afraid to bear her claws if anyone came within a ten feet radius of her precious Fab 5.

DHRUV

The shy, introverted musician of the Fab 5. Blink twice and you might miss him

CABIR

Mr. Happy possesses a steadfast nature and a killer sense of humor that makes him just the kind of friend you want on your speed dial.

SOHA

Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee!

MEET THE SWEETHEARTS

AALIYA

Strong willed, smart and brave. You'd want her as your friend.

Who she is: Keeping a hundred mile radius between her and the Fab 5.

How the world knows her: A down-to-earth girl who prefers to stick to her own devices. Unless you dare to insult one of her own in front of her, in which case, watch out for the fireworks.

NAVYA

Loves the spotlight, but never suited enough for it.

So I have recently started watching Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan and it's one hell of an addiction. Hence, this story.

The plot will be basically the same, only I have added some things and removed the others.

Hope you will like it.
