Part 5
In midnight, Taani entered in kitchen to drink water but stopped at the entrance seeing him there. She becomes nervous and scared remembering his words and was about to leaves from there, not wanted to face his wrath but stopped when she noticed something. He didn't even notice her yet as his back was facing her. She could see he was searching something in kitchen cabinets but suddenly her eyes went wide and a gasped escaped from her mouth seeing the blood stains on his hand.
His hand got bruised when he punched it on wall out of frustration after his encounter with her but he noticed it now, blood had dried up so he came here in kitchen to search first aid box but got irritated when he couldn't find it and more over kaka is also not here so he could ask. Suddenly he stop when he heard a sound behind him and turned around, there he found her standing at entrance with wide eyes.
He followed her gaze and found she was staring at his hand but ignoring her he turned back to his work of search. She came out from her shock state and walked forward and passes by him.
He stopped and looked at her confused when she opened lower cabinet and took out a box and came towards him. His eyes went wide when she hesitantly hold his hand and tried to clean his wound. He felt current passes through his veins feeling her soft touch. Her warm touch was so soothing as if she had taken away his pain by her mere touch. He looked up at her face which was cover with worry but he came back into senses and takes away his hand harshly and starts cleaning it by own.
"Wo..." she starts to say nervously seeing he's not able to clean it himself but he glared at her which made her mouth shut. She was worried for him and wanted to help him but she knew he never let her do this so she turned to leave the kitchen. At exit she stopped and looked last time at him then left.
As soon as she left, he turned around and looked at her retreating back. One side he hadn't want her to come near him and other side when she goes away from him he felt like some part of him is going away from him. He frustratingly sighed at his own behavior, hadn't any idea what is happening with him.

-Next Morning-
He was walking towards RH knowing everyone must be there so he can talk to them about the whole drama which they created yesterday.
As he entered, he found all were present there but before he could ask or say something shanaya ran towards him and launched at him with her never ending rant.
"Where were you, Rey? How many times I called you but you didn't even bother to answer me once nor replied to my texts. Oh My God!! You don't know, how much I was worried for you." She said in extra sweet tone trying to sound concerned for him as she cupped his cheeks in her palms and then hugged him.
Rey was startled with her sudden act that why she is behaving like as if she is his Girlfriend. But what confused him more was her touch, he was feeling uneasy with her touch though she hugged him before too and he let her as a friendly way but he never felt discomfort before and instantly his mind reminded him someone else' soothing touch... HER's. He came out from his thoughts and angrily jerked her away.
"Oh.. Really Shanaya..?" he asked in angry tone. Shanaya looked at him confused and scared, seeing him this much angry. All were also scared seeing angry Rey except Sharon and Swayam.
"Why are you talking like this to me, Rey? What I'd done?" shanaya asked innocently making a crying face as if she hadn't done anything. Sharon rolled her eyes at her drama. 'This girl should try for movies.. such a DRAMA QUEEN she is' she thought.
"Don't act smart in front of me, Shanaya. I very well know what you have capable to do." he snapped at her in dangerous tone which made her flinch away in fear. He knew whatever happened yesterday was all her plan.
"But..." before she could say he cut her off.
"Listen to me carefully, I won't tolerate this kind of behavior from anyone and what you'd done yesterday was too much and if anything like this happen again then I swear no one... I mean it, no one can help you to save from me." He shouted at her with greeted teeth, while his eyes were spitting fire. He then glared at other gang members signing this warning for them too.
Then he left the RH. Shanaya also went behind him to talk to him in alone so she can make him understand.
"Rey.." she called him from behind but he didn't bother to stop which made her to run behind him.

"Taani.." Rohan was surprised when he noticed her standing at the entrance of drama room. He and his team were present there to discuss about their next drama. All looked at her.
Taani hasn't any class to attend for now so she came here to meet her new friends but stopped at entrance as she wasn't sure that she could go inside or not.
"Tum wahan kya kar rahi ho? Ander aao na." Rohan stood up from his seat and said with smile as he could see her hesitation. She gave a nod and entered in with slow step.
"Hi, Taani." all greeted her with smile. She also returned the smile.
"Wo mujhe laga ki main yahan nahi aa sakti kyunki main aapki team ka hissa nahi ho na." she said with low tone, remembering yesterday's incident when she entered in dance RH, mistakenly. Rohan understood her fear and went near her.
"Taani, tum bhi iss college ki student ho isiliye tum jahan chaho, jab chaho wahan jaa sakti ho aur rahi baat hamari team ka part na hone ki, toh kya hua tum hamari friend to ho isliye tum kabhi bhi yahan aa sakti ho, bina kisi darr ke aur bina kisi ki permission ke, koi tumhe kuch nahi kahega. Hmm?" rohan explained her softly looking into her eyes which made her relaxed.
"Ha Taani, rohan bilkul sahi kah raha hai. Tum kabhi bhi yahan aa sakti ho." neha stepped forward and holding her hand, she pulled her with her and made her sit with them.
"So guys, let's start with dialogues rehearsal." Rohan said coming in center and neha stood from her place and walked towards him and starts with her lines as they both are the main lead of the play.
"Aakash, main tumse bahut pyaar karti hu par..." neha starts her line looking at rohan but he cut her in between.
"Neha, tum lines aise bol rahi ho jaise reading kar rahi ho, in lines ko feel karo aur fir emotions ke sath bolo." Rohan said to her and she nodded. They started again but after trying a lot she couldn't able to deliver her lines with the emotions which needed.
"What's wrong with you, neha. Tumhe itna simple sa scene bhi samjh mein nahi aa raha hai." rohan shouted at her in frustration and went to the corner and sat there.
Taani was looking all this and felt bad for neha so she went towards her to comfort her. She knew rohan didn't mean his words but still his outburst hurts neha. She thought to help her and starts explaining her, the emotions which needed for this scene then neha asked her to say those lines so she can understand.
"Aakash, main bhi tumse bahut pyaar karti hu par main apne papa se bhi bahut pyaar karti hoon. Maa ke baad unhone hi mera khayal rakha hai, bahut pyaar diya hai mujhe... aur unka dil dukha kar main apni khushi ke bare mein nahi soch sakti... Agar unhone kisi ko mere liye pasand kiya hai toh main usse hi shaadi karungi." Taani completed the lines with moist eyes. There so many emotions were seen in her eyes.
She was feeling all of them as if she is portraying her own life's story and somewhat that's true her love for her father, pain of losing him, gratitude towards him to gave her all the love after her mother. All memories started flashes in front of her eyes which made her emotional and unknowingly she delivered it in the lines.
But she came back from memory lane hearing loud voice and then she noticed everyone was looking at her and clapping. Their stares were making her nervous but she was more confused why they're clapping.
"WOW... Taani... you were amazing." Rohan commented as he walked towards her and stood near her. She still didn't understand what is happening.
"Taani, tumne itne acche se lines boli, that was Perfect. Tumne isse pahle bhi acting ki hai kya?" rohan asked her curiously. She shook her head, negatively.
"Neha got one idea." Neha said gaining their attention and all looked at her.
"Kyun na we make Taani ko hamare play ki lead?" she suggested, excitedly. Everyone looked at her surprised but Taani was shocked.
"Yes Neha, that's an amazing idea par lead to tum ho na aur..." rohan liked her suggestion but never wanted to make her upset.
"Rohan, main koi aur role play kar lungi but iss role ke liye Taani ek dum perfect hai." Neha said happily and everyone agreed with her and looked at Taani.
"Nahi, main yeh nahi kar sakti." Before anyone could say something Taani denied making them shocked.
"But Taani..." rohan started but Taani cut him off.
"Rohanji, mujhse nahi hoga." She said in low tone thinking about her stage fear.
But all starts trying to make her understand and encouraged her and after so many plead and rohan's request she agreed making all of them happy and they hugged her but still she was scared and nervous that is she able to do this.

"Rey, please listen to me once?" Shanaya requested as she stopped him after approaching him. Rey turned towards her, frustrated.
"I think you didn't understand what I had said there. You've crossed your bloody limits shanaya and now don't do something which will not be good for you and one more thing. STAY AWAY FROM ME as much as possible." He shouted at her and turning around he left from there.
Everyone who was present in the corridor was staring at shanaya and starts gossiping. She could see their mocking stares and felt insulted and immediately enraged for the person because of whom she is facing all this, because of whom her Rey had shouted at her in front of all and now it is her turn to feel humiliated in front of whole college.
"You're going to pay for this, Miss Taani." She said in rage.
