TS-'WHERE IT ALL WENT WRONG!'

Holla Amigos!

I'm Minnie..a crazy SanDhir fan like all of you out there.

I've decided to post a TS that's been in my head since a long time now. The main reason I am posting is because most of you out there, including me wanted a certain someone back..so, here it is, a SanDhir ride through my POV. Hope you guys Enjoy!

P.s: I've used a little Hindi where I felt it was necessary..!

Sanyukta's POV

I locked the dorm which was shared by Sanaya, Kritika and I but I really needed some me time. I sat with my back resting on the bed and my hands hugging my knees. The day's happening were enough to get my mind off track. Why the hell did Aryan purposely go missing for a day? Thinking that I would miss him and commit to him? Why? Why is he acting like an obsessive psycho guy? He was never like that instead he was so supportive and caring. Why the hell is he behaving like this? Oh yeah..I get it! For that bet! Great..just great! I thought he was different! This kind of act was expected from Randhir but Aryan? Since when did he become like this or did I make a mistake in him judging him? I shouldn't have thought so high of him. After all, a man he is! Jerk! It's all because of that MCP. He must have provoked him in doing so. Why does he want to make my life a living hell? Why? Wasn't turning his back on me after the dream team competition enough? His betrayal when I needed him the most? His absence when I saw Parth's lifeless body being taken to hospital, attached to wires..where was he at that time? How I longed for him to embrace me, assure me that my best friend will be fine with us but he wasn't there. Heck! He doesn't even know I gave up on engineering..MY DREAM! And now when someone finally wanted good for me, was there to support me, he even provoked him and had a bet over me. Why does he always have to do this? Why can't he let me live in peace? Yearned to seek comfort in his arms and feel protected? Where was he? When I needed him the most? Never in his wildest dreams could he ever imagine what I have been through. NEVER! The knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts. I felt something wet on my cheeks. That's when I realized that I had been crying the whole time. No..Sobbing! But why? I am sure I wasn't crying till Randhir..what? Have I gone mad? I was crying over that MCP! Ugghhh!! Hearing the knock again, I unlocked the door thinking it to be either Sanaya or Kritika and went back to my bed. Ignoring whoever was at the door, I sat on my bed pretending to be busy when I felt someone approaching me. Turning around, I was ready to snap at the person cause I just wanted to be alone or maybe with someone who would just hold me tight, lend me a shoulder to cry on, let me cry as much as I want and understand my silence. Unfortunately for me, there's none in ISRC...Randhir is..phir Randhir? Ugghhh! Already frustrated, I was about to snap out at the person but nothing escaped my lips. I went numb. Instead I could sense hot tears brimming in my eyes seeing the person in front of me. A smile adoring his handsome face. 'Parth!', a whisper escaped my mouth and I launched myself at him in no time. Wrapping his arms around me in a protective manner, he held me tight. Just how I wished a while back. 'Expect him to behave like this!', I thought and chuckled inwardly. I cried for God knows how long and he held me patiently. Like always! Being in his friendly protective embrace made me realize the truth of my life. I had missed my best friend more than ever. I couldn't even put that in words. How I wished he was there all this while so none of this would have happened and he wold have made Randhir and I reconcile again. No matter what the consequences were. I know it! The thought of him not being there scared the hell out of me. I didn't have the courage to lose my best friend again. Scared, I held onto him tighter as my life depended on him. As soon as I did that did that, I felt him kissing my hair as if saying that he is there and I smiled through my tears. Pulling out from the hug, he wiped my tears adoringly and sat besides me hugging. I immediately rested my head his shoulder and he hugged me side ways. The feeling of him being there needed to sink in so we sat in that position since God knows how long. The thought having him by my side was just way too relaxing. Finally, there was someone who would just be there by my side without expecting anything in return. 'Sitting here by your side makes me realize how much I've missed you bestie. t's been so long since we've had some time for ourselves. Ages! I've so much to share you know! Just now I wished I needed someone by my side to voice out the havoc within me, someone who just sit by my side, understands my silence, hold me and let me cry and see..you showed up. Old habits die hard I see. But tell me one thing..how do you always know when I need you? Jinny ho kya?', I asked . God knows what I felt at that moment. Excited? Curious? Confused? God knows! Hearing me call him Jinny made him chuckle lightly. 'Kuch aur maang leti Ayu..shayad poora ho jata!', Parth said softly hinting me about Randhir. Hugging his arm and resting my head on his shoulder, I said childishly, 'Nahi..I just want my best friend now. No one else!'. After all, he was the first guy in my life who never behaved like an MCP and understands me like no one else ever could. Best friend's trait! We sat in a comfortable silence for a while and then I spoke up..or rather confessed, 'God! I missed you so much Pratty!'. It came out as a tiny whisper. Enough for Parth to understand. 'I missed you as well Ayu but anyway, we'll talk tomorrow.'. Parth told me. Seeing me pout sadly, he hit my head playfully and said, 'Haalat dekhi hai tu ne apni? You look worn out! Thora rest kar le..we'll talk tomorrow.', Parth said and started to get up but I stopped him and asked, 'But mujhe abhi wese bhi neend nahi aane wali yar. Aur tera kya bharosa? Tu last time bhi jub America gaya tha us k bad there were no calls or messages. What will I do then? I don't wanna lose my best friend again! I've already lost too much Parth..I don't have the courage to lose more!' at first it came out like a helpless cry but ended as a whisper. Tears making their way down my cheeks. The fear of losing him again got the better of me. Sighing Parht sat back, wiped my tears and hugged me side ways. 'I am not going anywhere Ayu. I am here only. I promise!?', Parth asked trying to convince me. I pretended like I was angry at him. When I glanced at him again, he was sitting on my bed resting his back on the head set signing on his lap and said mischievously, 'Ye chalay ga?'. For a moment, I was startled as to what was he saying but then I knew, this was all I needed. Whenever I had a fight with Randhir or something bothered me and believe me when I say it helped. Grinning widely at him, I immediately lied down resting my head on his lap. He kept caressing my head and in no time I was in deep slumber. That's all I needed, I guess. A best friend.

Randhir's POV

I sat in an isolated area thinking why wasn't I happy seeing Sanyukta who was looked immensely hurt. Why does her face expressions are not leaving my vision. Of course I wanted to creat rift between her and Aryan then this creepy feeling? What is making me upset? The fact that she is upset with Aryan and might never talk to him again made me a little content but the fact that she didn't even spare me a look is..making me feel restless. But why? This is what I wanted right? Than why did I feel so..so..weird maybe. I should have been feeling content but no there's this restless in me. Why am I feeling so bad thinking that she didn't say anything to me? That's what I wanted right..away from me. Not messing with me. And now when that is finally happening, I want her to fight back. Like she always did! But if I so wanted her out of my way then why did I bet over her in the first place..I knew that I have to stay with her to win it. I still did bet..why?? I hate her..right? Then? Do I still have a soft corner for her? Or did I still feel something for her? NO! I can't feel that for her. She revealed about Mom's suicide even when she promised she won't do it. She deserves it. Bloody selfish and over ambitious girl. Serves her right! How dare she did that! Why did she disclose it? WHY? But my heart, it's not ready to accept that it was not her. Her eyes, they were begging me to believe her and..somewhere, I believe her. Her eyes never lie/ Someone must have trapped her but who would do that? No one..no one in ISRC apart from her know about the relation between Mom and I. Wait..!! What if I am letting my feelings control me and it turns out to be her. After all, no one apart from her knew about my relation with my mom. To reveal that, they needed to know about it. And even if I think they did it but why? We're just too new for each other to have grudges and then take revenge from me. It was just her who wanted it. So, that explains that it was her only. She tried imposing her decisions on me in FITE, never was I her priority, emotionally manipulated me, that so called ambitious girl almost killed my friend and now this! Even after knowing how sensitive I am whenever it's about my parents..she still did that. But her eyes? No Randhir! Get a grip on yourself..you can't let her emotionally manipulate you again. Yeah..I'll teach her a lesson for messing with my life all these years. I thought that you might have changed Sanyukta Aggarwal once I discovered how you took care of Parth when he was in coma. But now I know why you did that. You did that to overcome your guilt. That's what selfish people do. Never accept their mistake and do these kind of things to show off. You might fool people Sanyukta Aggarwal but you can never fool me. I'll make you sure you pay for everything you did...EVERY SINGLE MISTAKE!

Little did he know that he's still love in her and his hate was his love in disguise for his Farzi. He just had to realize it! The war between his heart and mind was just the proof of his undying love for his WIFE!!

Parth's POV

I sat on the bean bag thinking how my world has turned upside down. I came to ISRC to meet the two idiot friends of mine and was roaming around trying to find them. While doing so, I heard someone crying incoherently. That sounded familiar. Concentrating as to where the sobs were coming from, I was lead to a room. I knocked the door a couple of times but no one answered. After a while, I heard the door being unlocked so I opened it slowly and looked around to see who it was. As soon as I laid my eyes on the girl sitting on bed, I immediately got worried. I started taking baby steps towards the girl hoping that it's not her but alas! It was her only..my best friend! She looked disheveled. Swollen red puffy eyes, messy hair, fake expressions..she looked so different. One look at her face, and I knew how she was masking her feelings so effortlessly. Loneliness and helplessness! It was so overwhelming to see her after so long and that too like this. Weeping! And pretending! Completely against my liking, that is not how I wished to her. He thought she would hug him tight and would get super excited over the thought of spending time with me but this girl in front of me looked nothing like my Ayu. I kept observing her for sometime and she didn't realize who it was cause she was busy pretending how busy she was. Maybe, my conception of her being changed was wrong. I hoped it was! She then turned around ready to lash out at me but stopped as soon as she saw me. At first she was taken aback but as soon as the feeling sank in, tears started welling up in her eyes. Typical Ayu..still possesses some of the girls' traits. Smiling softly at her, I knelt down at her level only to be pulled in a fierce hug by her. Reciprocating the hug, I held her tight wishing it helps her stop feeling so helpless and lonely. Her growing sobs were so daunting. Breaking the hug she began talking like she always did when she was upset but looking at her exhausted self, I decided against the usual thing and told her to wait till tomorrow. Sensing I was about to go she held on to my hand and looked me with a child like innocence and was so afraid that I might just leave. Guilt enveloped me and I regretted going to America leaving her alone like this even after knowing that Randhir and her still haven't cleared out their differences. She looked so..vulnerable! Making her sleep on my lap was the only solution I found. After all, that was something that always comforted her. But what could have caused her to act so vulnerable..so helpless?? Fought with Randhir? Wait? Where is he? I didn't see Randhir and now Ayu..? But what happened? Why is she like this? She was never like this. Always knew how to compose herself then what happened to her now. I have this weird feeling that she is no more my Ayu but I was hoping against hope. Little did I know that every thing was going to come crashing down at me. My chain of thoughts were broken when a girl entered the room. I guess she is Ayu's room mate and looked familiar.

Sanaya entered the room cursing Randhir which made Parth realize who she was. Sanaya was so caught up in thinking about Randhir's whereabouts that she couldn't even make out the fact that there's someone new in their dorm. Parth sat mute, not wanting to disturb Sanyukta's sleep who looked so peaceful while sleeping. As soon as Sanaya saw him, she stumbled upon something and was quite taken aback. She was about at him when she saw Sanyukta lying in his lap. What shocked her more was the fact there were no freckles or no lines of worries as they are usually there. Instead, she seemed so relaxed. Never had she seen Sanyukta this relaxed. She went to take a closer look at Parth and it sank in her mind that he is none other than Randhir's friend. Wondering, she signed him asking what was he doing there? Parth signed her to come near him, not wanting to wake Sanyukta up by their talks.

'What are you doing here? You're Sheikhu's friend right?', asked Sanaya clearly looking confused.

'Sheikhu?', Parth questioned.

'Randhir!', stated Sanaya.

'oh..okay! Yeah I am his friend and Sanyukta's too.', Parth said not giving extra explanation to her.

'But what are you doing here? And why is she sleeping like this? I mean on your lap.'. Sanaya interrogated.

'She happens to be my best friend you see!', Parth explained.

'Umm..so did you meet Sheikhu? I mean Randhir.', asked Sanaya worried.

'No. Why? Every thing okay?', Parth wondered.

'He just went somewhere and is not picking up his phone. It's been so long now. The restrobar guy told me that he had a brawl over..Nothing! I'll just go look out for him.', Sanaya trailed off but changed the topic as soon as is came to the bet cause she had no idea how he was gonna react. Sanaya hurriedly turned around to go but Parth held her hand with his one hand and carefully placed Sanyukta's head on the pillow and dragged Sanaya out of the room for the interrogation.

'Now tell me what happened. The full story!', Parth stated firmly.

'Umm..it's nothing. You're just over thinking it you see.', Sanaya tried to sound normal but her eyes gave away the worried emotion she had for her best friend.

'Listen! Don't beat around the bush. Just tell me!', Parth ordered her.

Seeing the look on his face, Sanaya decided to tell him. She needed someone who could help her put whack some sense into Randhir's mind and make him realize that he still has feelings for Sanyukta. Who better than his own friend!

'Fine! Well, Sheikhu had a bet with Aryan. A bet where they would try and impress Sanyukta and she would commit to either of them.', Sanaya said in a low voice scared of his reaction but Parth just stayed quiet and motioned her to continue. Sanaya continued, 'I don't know k un dono ne ye bet kyu lagai. Aryan is someone who loves Sanyukta and Sheikhu..he is hell bent on hurting her and making her life hell and still he agreed for the bet. Idiot! He says he does this so that Sanyukta doesn't cross his path but the truth is that he does that purposely. The truth is that he can't resist himself from fighting with her. He keeps doing things that irritate her to get a reaction from her and when she is not around, he get's so restless. Keeps looking out for her. I've seen him. The fury in his eyes when he sees Sanyukta with Aryan. He still has feelings for her. Who gets so jealous and over protective seeing their ex with another person if they didn't care? If they didn't have feelings for their ex? Fighting with her keeps him near her and that somewhere relaxes his mind that she's still around him. What I don't understand is that why isn't he accepting the fact that he is still head over heels in love with her? He still remember what she loves to eat and how would she react in a certain situation. He can't stand Aryan cause he is the only one Sanyukta hangs around with and after knowing that Aryan loves her, Sheikhu is insecure but he won't accept it. Egoistic! He still loves her! For Aryan, it may be just a bet but we can't say the same for Sheikhu. You know an anonymous sent him a video of Sheikhu and Sanyukta kissing and I told him to show it to Aryan and win the bet. He got so protective and worked up. It would give the wrong image of Sanyukta and he didn't want that. And if it was just about the bet than wouldn't he have already leaked the video? Pata nahi kya kia karta rehta hai..I don't know where he is. Heck! I don't even know what was the fight about.', Sanaya finished sitting on the bench besides Parth who was smiling softly thinking that Randhir was till the same. Sanaya got confused seeing him smile and was about to question him when Parth's asked something she was really unsure of, 'How's Ayu..I mean Sanyukta in your point of view? Does she love Aryan back?', Parth asked curiously.

'I only know Sanyukta as my fellow emply and nothing else. She's smart, intelligent, dedicated, ambitious and a great leader. She looks quite mature and is very serious. Doesn't interact with anyone apart from work purpose. Despite of the fact that we share a room, I really don't know her. Not just me but everyone. Well, almost everyone. Mysterious she is! The only person who seem to know her and is always besides her is Aryan. He is the only she hangs around with and by the looks of it she quiet enjoy his company. You know what? He went missing for a day and Sanyukta was really concerned about him. Sanyukta didn't know that seeing her upset, Randhir was also upset and when I told this to her she said that their relationship meant a lot to her but Randhir never supported her or her dreams. Yesterday, she even told Randhir that she trusts Aryan. When he turned, Sanyukta looked very relieved and happy.That's all!, Sanaya told him.

Parth just sat there with a confused expression. 'What has gotten itno Ayu? Seriosus? No interaction? And this Aryan..who the hell is he? I don't know why but he doesn't seem right to me. What's there in him that Ayu trusts him and hangs around with him only? I need to find out about this Aryan. I need to find out about this Aryan guy. I don't trust him and how can Ayu forget every thing she had with Randhir? She married him for God's sake and now this behavior. She really needs an earful. And if she really trusts that guy than why was she crying? Why did she look depressed? Her eyes did not have that spark like always and she pretends to be happy around him. Something's wrong..I am sure! I should immediately go and find out about this Aryan. I can't waste more time.' Parth thought to himself and stood up to go. He turned around to thank Sanaya for the info cause if not for her, he wouldn't have got this little piece of info.

'Don't worry. Randhir will be here any moment. Anyway, thanks for the info! It really helped.'

He strode off after thanking her, in order to start investigating on Aryan. Sanaya also went to her room and slept only after she got a phone call from Randhir that he is fine and is on his way back.

Next day, Sanyukta woke up when her cell phone started ringing. Normally, she would wake up immediately but today was an exception. She didn't feel like waking up cause she slept peacefully after ages. Unfortunately for her, her phone kept ringing and she had no choice but pick it up.

'Hello..', greteed Sanyukta in a mushy tone only to hear the person on the line chuckle and say, 'Wake up you sleepy head! It's almost 9. Or kitna soe gi tu?' Sanyukta didn't need anymore explanations as to who it was. That was one of those voices that she could never fail to recognize.

'What? Almost 9! I am so dead! Couldn't you wake me up a little early Parth?', shrieked Sanyukta making Parth annoyed.

'Ahh..don't screech! And look who's talking. I've been calling you since an hour but madam was so busy sleeping. Anyway, now you're up so I'll cut the call. I have work to do you see. Not a free person like you.', Parth mocked her.

'Oh cut the crap Pratty. And itne time bad tere lap pe sir rakh k soi thi. Aisa hi hona tha.', Sanyukta reminisced smiling.

'Okay tw someoen is busy reliving their good old days! And btw, tujhe pata bhi hai tu kitni moti ho gai hai? Abhi tuk tang dukh rahi hai meri!', Parth teased her.

'Wo tw mai ho rahi hu and if that's the case then why did you give me the offer?', Sanyukta retorted back.

'If you knew that then why did you accept it? Mana kar deti..motu!', Parht gave her back.

'Tu ne aj tuk kisi insaan ko ek itni achi offer ko mana karte dekha hai jo mai kar deti?.', Sanyukta replied and they both grinned.

'Chul bye!', Parth said ready to hang up but Sanyukta stopped him, 'Wait!', she screamed over the phone making Parth pull the phone away from his ears.

'I am on the call Ayu. This is the seconds time! Itni zor se kyu chilla rahi hai?', Parth said rubbing his ears while Sanyukta giggled slightly.

'You said you'll be with me only and now you're God knows where..', Sanyukta complained innocently.

'I have an urgent work to complete Ayu but don't worry..it'll be done in 2 days and then we'll talk. Not just that we'll have the time of lives.', Parth said trying to convince her.

'okay!', Sanyukta said sounding low.

'Umm..chul ek kaam karte hai. Mai raat me aata hu tujhse milne. Ab theek hai?', Parth said in order to cheer her up and guess what? He did!

'You're the best Pratty!', Sanyukta squealed in happiness while Parth shook his head on her antics.

'Pagal larki! Chul..raat me aata hu phir!', Parth bid bye to her and hung up.

'This girl will never change. Thank God she's not behaving like someone I never knew otherwise God knows how I would have digested it. Don't worry Ayu. You deserve the best and that is Randhir. Not this dark shadow!', Parth said to himself. Parth had investigated about Aryan last night and that's where he came to know about Aryan being the dark shadow. According to what Parth found about Aryan, he was involved in changing Sanyukta's slide during the lie detector test along with Nirman to create rifts among Randhir and Sanyukta. Apart from it, he also came to know about Nirman being a criminal who is carrying on Mars mission illegally. The fact that Sanyukta was registered illegally into ISRC came as a shock to him. What he didn't know was the reason behind that and also what in that slides that both Aryan and Nirman used against them? What was Aryan doing in that hotel? Someone from the ISRC was helping him to keep an eye on both of them. Someone who was friends with our SanDhir and s well wisher.

Sanyukta's day was like any other day with Aryan behaving all clingy and Randhir's taunts at the beginning. Later, she put up such a guard that neither Aryan nor Randhir could spoil her moon. Aryan was irritated with her ignorance but wasn't getting any chance as Sanyukta was aware of his tries. She wanted him to suffer. To know that she is not an object to play around with. However, Randhir was different. He was pleasantly surprised to see a glimpse of his Farzi in this lead astronaut. There was something unusual about her which confused Randhir but after he saw her having a little chat with Sanaya. What astonished her was the way she smiled at one of Sanaya's antics. The glint was there in her eyes. Even though she did not laugh, her eyes smiled along with her. A proof that she smiled form her heart and not just for the sake of people like she had been doing this all this while. He wondered what made her this gleeful. Nonetheless, a smile adorned his face and for once the Randhir Singh Shekhawat let his heart rule over his brain. Even before he could register any of those feeling, he fell head over heals in love with his Farzi. All over again. Little did he know that this little moment of joy might cost him...not just him but both of them.

Sanyukta was happily was working on the Mars Mission for which she needed to show her team a video. Unknown to her someone had changed the CD with Sandhir kiss. Scandalized! Could be the word for both Randhir and Sanyukta.. As soon as the feeling sank in, Sanyukta spun around to give Aryan an explanation but he stormed off. The delighted expressions on her face had vanished and she looked distraught. Randhir and Sanyukta's gaze locked with each other..where one unsure and the other was furious. Randhir had a doubt that Sanyukta was blaming him for that inwardly so he stepped forward to clear her doubts but Sanyukta gestured him to stop and spat venomously, 'You only get peace by ruining people's lives! Disgusting you are Mr. Shekhawat!' and sped off in searh of Aryan. Sanyukta tried explaining Aryan but he just locked himself in his room. Sanyukta banged his door and begged him to listen to her once but he didn't budge. Yesterday's events were long forgotten. Instead, they were replaced by the fear of losing her only support system. She sat outside his room crying her eyes out for hours and slept in the same position. Aryan was observing her sleeping posture smirking and said to himself, 'Poor Randhir! It was me who changed the CD and he got blamed. Tch Tch..!'. Saying this, he opened the door in order to pick up Sanyukta and take her to her dorm. He bent down and was about to pick her up when someone pushed him. So hard that he landed on the floor wincing in pain. He got skeptical seeing the person who had pushed him so hard.

Randhir was in his room. Taking all his frustration out his punching bag when Sanaya entered with a stern look on his face. Randhir tried to read her expressions with his burrow's furred but that didn't help him. Sanaya sat on the bean bag signing him to continue with his punching bag.

'Pagal ho tum?', Randhir asked completely pissed off by the fact as to why wasn't she saying anything.

'Kyu? I didn't say anything!', Sanaya replied calmly.

'Tumhe bhi lagta hai k maine wo video leak ki hai?', questioned Randhir.

'Maine aisa kub kaha Sheikhu? Of course I know you didn't! Itna to janti hu mai tumhe.', Sanaya answered rolling her eyes. Randhir expressions softened a little. He sat on one of the other bean bags and whispered, 'Then why did Sanyukta think that I did that? How could she?'

Sighing Sanaya began, 'It was really predictable of her Sheikhu..' Randhir shot a glance at her, wondering why the hell is she saying all this now. 'Oh come on Sheikhu! Don't give me those looks! What did you expect from her? That she would trust you? And why would she do this? Because you both were in a relationship?'..the look on Randhir's face betrayed him and Sanaya realized she was right. Irritated, she continued wishing he gets her point and stop being a jerk, 'Seriously Sheikhu? Wouldn't have you done the same if you were there in her place? Would you trust someone who spent all their day creating troubles for you or someone who left no stones unturned to throw you out of the college or maybe someone who destroyed your father's village just cause of your ego and someone who does not trust you..would you trust that person back? Tell me!' Randhir hung his head low realizing the truth in her words. 'But I didn't do it!', he tried to justify himself.

'Sanyukta also said the same to you after the lie detector test but did you trust her? What if she was not the one at fault that day? What if someone framed her? Like you've been framed!', Sanaya forced him to look on the positive side. Randhir kept staring at her, trying to digest every thing his best friend said.

'But no one knew about my relation with Mom except her.' Randhir's ego still overpowering him.

'Who knew that you guys kissed apart from you two? For God's sake Sheikhu! Drop this ego! You buried you love for her because you thought she deliberately added the slides containing your mother's suicides and now when there's a possibility that she has been framed just like you..you're denying it. Why? Don't you think you should try finding out the truth and get her back? I can see in your eyes that you still feel for her but God knows why you're so hell bent on denying it. Think about it Sheikhu.'. Sanaya stopped for a moment to read Randhir's mind. To figure out whether her talks are affecting him or not. Seeing him responding she continued, 'Make her believe that it wasn't you.' Sanaya tried convincing him. Randhir looked up at her. His eyes drowned in sorrow. 'But how?' He asked dejected.

Sanaya felt sorry for her best friend. She held his shoulders making him look at her.

'Ye tum pooch rahe ho? Seriously Sheikhu?', Sanaya asked pretending to be surprised while Randhir looked at her confused.

'Sara din us se fight karte rehte ho aur ab mujhse pooch rahe ho "HOW?" '. Sanaya winked and he finally got what she meant.

'Anyway, I think I should go as it's getting late. Call me if you wanna talk or share something. I am just a call away.', Sanaya said hugging Randhir who was startled seeing her behave all concerned after her scolding session. Sanaya chuckled at his expression and said, 'Aise kya dekh rahe ho. That's how best friends are Sheikhu..at times they scold you to put some sense into your pea sized brain but concerned and caring at the same time. Baaqi sub ka pata nahi but mai aisi hi wali best friend hu..get used to it.', she said trying to lighten the atmosphere and hit his head playfully. Randhir smiled a little at his best friend's retreating figure.

Aryan looked up to see a tall guy standing there. Anger clearly evident on his face and fists closed. He was throwing daggers at him and if looks could kill, Aryan would have been dead by then. Aryan recognized this guy to be Sanyukta's friend..the one who got out of coma. It was Parth.

'You! What are you doing here?', Aryan exclaimed startled.

Ignoring him, Parth lifted Sanyukta carefully in his arms and started marching towards her dorm. Aryan who was following him stopped dead in his tracks receiving a glare from him which reminded him of he powerful push he received earlier. Little did he know that was Parth's Tai Chi move.

Parth carried Sanyukta to her room and made her lay down. Careful enough not to wake her up. Her tear stained face made his blood boil in anger and he swore to show Aryan his place for hurting his best friend. Sanaya who returned fom Randhir's room was stunned to see Parth there. She shut the door immediately which got Parth's attention.

'What are you doing here? We're supposed to meet after 2 days right? Then?', Sanaya showered questions on him. Yes! It was Sanaya who was helping him in his mission.

'Will you just shut up?', Parth bursted out at her while Sanaya was taken aback by his sudden outbusrt. 'Sorry!', Parth said in a low tone caressing Sanyukta's head who was moving uncomfortably in her sleep.

Sanaya gave him a small smile and assured him, 'It's okay. I understand how it feels to see your friend so perturbed. And that too for 2 consecutive days.'

Parth just nodded and said, 'I promised her in the morning that I'll come tonight.'

Sanaya understood what he meant. 'Do you know what happened between Aryan and Randhir last night? The quarrel? And what happened today? Any progress?'

'Whoa whoa..you just snapped at me for asking too many questions at once and now you're doing the same.', Sanaya said dramatically. Parth got embarrassed while Sanaya giggled and gave him the info he asked for. She narrated everything to him. How she sneaked into Nirman's cabin, fooled Becky and then searched for the pen drives where the CCTV footage were stored. She cleverly connected the CCTV camera with her laptop so she would know about their future moves. While going through the CCTV footage she came to know about Nirman adding some slides to Sanyukta's slides and that's how Sanaya realized that Sanyukta had no idea about the slides about the suicide attempt of Randhir's murderer. (Now you people know why she tried convincing Randhir.) She knew about Aryan being the dark shadow since that lie detector test thinking him to be good but she was wrong. He had his own reasons. She also saw how Nirman manipulated Randhir to launch the other missile and then the murder of the lady they found in the chamber. She also filled him in about Aryan's and Randhir's fight and Sanyukta being the witness. 'And all this while Aryan and Nirman were doing it to create rifts between Sheikhu and Sanyukta cause Nirman didn't want any emotional connection between his team. According to him, it might ruin his Mars Mission. All this time, provoking him was THE DARK SHADOW aka Aryan. The same dark shadow who catches criminals..but he didn't catch Nirman cause he indirectly was helping him keep Sheikhu away from Sanyukta.' Sanaya stopped for a moment and then continued, 'And as far as today's concerned..I am sure Aryan must have changed the CD..I couldn't check the CCTV footage because we're so busy in the meeting.', Sanaya trailed off but Parth cut her, 'what CD?'
