Chapter 11 : Unofficial Freshers


Anokhi's Flat.

Reema was busy tying the knot of her sea-green flared dress when Anokhi walked in dressed in a silver maxi dress with a slit cut in the side. It was sleeveless, giving a view of her toned arms, and the back of it was covered with just a small square cut in the middle.

Reema pulled her in front of the mirror. "Haayo Rabba! Kitni sundar lag rahi hai." Anokhi smiled at her reflection and mouthed a thank you.

"Tu bhi toh kitni achi lag rahi hai" she said turning around. Reema grinned, clinching the brown belt on her waist, and then pushed Anokhi down on the chair.

She combed Anokhi's hair straight with a mid-partition to frame her face and kept her makeup minimal to eyeliner and a light shade lipstick. Though annoyed at first, Anokhi gradually started enjoying it and helped in selecting the earrings that matched with her dress. She then lastly slipped into her black strappy heels completing the look.

Reema felt proud of her work and started with her own makeup and hair while Anokhi used this time to apply for some more internships.

Shaurya's Flat

Kabir and Ahir were getting ready in one room and Shaurya in the other. Kabir had chosen a black blazer with white stripes and had paired it up with a white T-shirt and denim jeans, whereas Ahir decided to go with a grey blazer and white t-shirt.

Shaurya, on the other hand, had bought a black coat with a crisp black shirt. He didn't know what took over him that he bought a full black outfit for a freshers' party. But after getting all dressed, he had no regrets for this impulsive purchase.

Coming out of the room, they passed each other a smile and showed a thumbs up as a compliment.

The guys exited the flat and Shaurya was locking the door when the girls stepped out


The guys exited the flat and Shaurya was locking the door when the girls stepped out.

Ahir glanced at Anokhi who was locking the door, then at Reema and his mouth fell open in surprise. His gaze traveled from south to north till his eyes met hers making him realize that she was staring at him too. Gathering some courage, Ahir looked into her eyes and passed her a shy smile while Reema tucked a hair strand behind her ear and smiled back.

Meanwhile, both Shaurya and Anokhi turned around at the same time causing their gaze to clash with each other and Shaurya stood frozen at his spot. His heart leaped, eyes widened and the keys he had been holding fell uselessly to the floor startling Ahir who immediately picked it up.

A shaky breath escaped his mouth as Shaurya's eyes softly moved over her from head to toe and then back up again. She looked breathtakingly beautiful... the silver color complimenting her skin tone just as he expected.

Anokhi's eyes too roved over him, taking into his handsome appearance. Black has always been his color. But today, the whole black outfit matched with the black-framed glasses, added a certain sharpness to his look.

Shaurya held her gaze, both feeling an urge to give a compliment while Ahir and Reema kept glancing at each other waiting for the other to proceed.

On the other side, Kabir was standing with his arms crossed, looking at both the ladies with a wide grin adorning his lips. Unaware of the 'who goes first' game going on, he exclaimed "Sexy!". Eye contacts broke, the girls looked at him with their eyes widen while the guys glared at him, shocked.

Kabir then walked over to the ladies and said "Reema, you look stunning. And Anokhi, I mean WOW! Shaurya ne sahi kaha tha, these colors suit you."

Anokhi's lips parted and she looked at Shaurya who averted his eyes, mortified. She knew he selected the color but not this additional information that Kabir just supplied.

Ahir shook his head, annoyed for reasons unknown, and interrupted "Cab aagy hai. Chale?"

Anokhi and Reema nodded while Kabir chirped happily "Han han, chalo. Jab itni sundar ladkiyo ke saath party mei enter karunga toh sab ladke jalkar raakh ho jaenge.".

He ran downstairs, and Ahir gestured the girls to move ahead. Since the girls were all dolled up in dresses, Ahir joined Kabir on his bike and Shaurya shared the cab with the girls.

***

Within 20 minutes, they reached the venue. The party was at RSVP, a pool-adjacent nightclub at the Royal Plaza Hotel. The cab driver pulled over near the parking area and Kabir parked his bike at the bike stand.

Shaurya got off the car and opened the door for Anokhi while Ahir too came running to the car, opening the other door for Reema, surprising both the ladies. Whereas Kabir just looked on at the scene with his eyes narrowed. Was he missing something?

The girls descended the car, their eyes fixated on the guys who passed them a smile. What has happened to them? They walked through the entrance to the pool area. It was quiet there, the azure pool had a few cream-colored lounge chairs on its sides, the dim starry lighting providing an intimate feel to it. It was soothing.

After verifying the passes, the person in charge guided them inside the club. As soon as the door opened and they stepped inside, loud music blaring through the DJ greeted them accompanied by some cheering and hooting. A banner saying -Welcome Freshers was hanging through the lighting rig at the top, along with some balloons and ribbons.

Anokhi scrunched her brows at the thumping music, and wherever she saw people were dancing or clicking pictures. Whereas, Reema's eyes were beaming with excitement, and she slowly started swaying with the beats of the song.

Kabir just looked around the crowd, and spotting some girls from his class, excused himself. Ahir and Shaurya, on the other hand, passed each other a tight smile, not understanding why they agreed to be a part of this freshers' party.

Few of Anokhi's classmates greeted them at the entrance, and they talked a little since the loud music was not allowing them to hear what the other person was saying. Some guys tried dragging Anokhi and Reema to the dance floor but they politely declined. Ahir and Shaurya just stood there observing the exchange.

When they were left alone, Reema dragged Ahir to the snacks counter while Shaurya adjusted his coat, looked down at Anokhi and his hands came gently, resting on her back as he guided her through the throng of people. His touch for the first, startled her but she walked wherever he led and kept looking at him from the corner of her eyes.

When they stopped, Anokhi found herself at a corner of the club which was alienated from the dance floor, having some couches and a table in between. She saw Reema and Ahir were already seated on the two-seater, relishing on Manchurian and paneer tikka.

Shaurya gestured her to sit and passed her a plate of chilly potato. Anokhi smiled taking the plate from him while Shaurya took a seat beside her, munching on the spring rolls.

They all observed people from there and waved whenever they saw familiar faces. Reema saw Kabir at the bar flirting with a girl and shook her head smiling. After a while, few people from Shaurya and Ahir's batch came there and they all chatted, the guys trying to make a conversation with the girls.

Anokhi smiled in response and spoke whenever needed, but Reema talked to them with full interest. After they left, Shaurya noticed Anokhi getting bored, fidgeting with her fingers. She looked uncomfortable too, maybe all of this was too new for her.

He signaled something to Ahir, grabbed Anokhi's hand surprising her, and then steered her to another corner with Ahir and Reema following them.

It was a good-lighted area unlike the dark rainbow lights dancing near the dance floor barely giving a view of the people standing beside them. It had a galaxy-themed background with a photographer in front of it to capture the memories of the freshers' party. A table was pushed against the wall near the tripod stand on which certain props were kept, probably to use them in the pictures.

Anokhi looked up at Shaurya who grinned at her and gestured her to pose for the picture. The cameraman was all set, and Shaurya too positioned himself beside her, ready to get clicked.

Anokhi smiled but then Reema eyed her to adjust her dress so that the slit cut is shown properly and at the same time the photographer directed Shaurya to scoot a little closer.

Shaurya glanced at Anokhi who was busy adjusting her dress,and snaked an arm around her waist, startling her. She jerked her head to look at him, her eyes widen. Shaurya smirked at her expressions, and leaned his face towards hers, his lips almost touching her ears as he whispered "Come closer..."

An electrifying tingle ran down her spine as he pulled her towards him, her own hand landing on his chest. Feeling her gaze on him, Shaurya stared down at her, looking straight into her sparkling eyes....and *click*, a flash went off.

Their faces instantly whirled in that direction, and Anokhi's hand dropped to the side. Taking a deep breath, she composed herself and smiled posing for the photo while Shaurya adjusted his glasses, secretly admiring her innocence.

Reema and Ahir watched all this with Reema guiding them about the poses whereas Ahir just stood there with his arms crossed, a little confused after noticing certain 'things'.

Following Shaurya and Anokhi, Reema and Ahir posed for the photos. Kabir also joined them in between, and then one by one they all got their photos clicked with each other. They used props saying – Take a chill pill, Drama Queen, Foodie No.1, Too hot to handle, Mera jaisa yaar kahan – and a few fun props of hats and glasses making them laugh at each other, resulting in some candid moments getting captured.

During all this, Anokhi eased a little and then Kabir dragged them to the dance floor. Punjabi songs were rolling on the DJ, and they all danced their hearts out, the guys performed some bhangra in between, and Kabir did a naagin dance with Ahir being the Sapera. Anokhi too didn't care about the surroundings as she moved her body with the beats, smiling and lip-syncing to the songs.

After some loud bollywood remix, a soft tune started playing in the background which then transitioned to a romantic song. The DJ cheered and encouraged friends and couples to join the dance floor. The group paused, looking at each other, and without any shyness, Reema forwarded her hand towards Ahir, asking for a dance.

Ahir was stunned at her move but then he held her hand with a smile and they started dancing. Shaurya watched this with his brows raised while Kabir's mouth fell open in surprise.

Anokhi bites her lips, happy for her friend, and turned around to get off the dance floor. Kabir and Shaurya both thought of asking her for a dance when they spotted Shagun suddenly appearing from the entrance, striding towards Shaurya.

His eyes widen, Shaurya didn't waste his time asking and instantly grabbed Anokhi's arm pulling her to him causing her hands to land on his chest while his arms held her waist in a secured grip.

Shagun paused in her path, shocked. Muttering some cuss words under her breath, she was about to walk away when Kabir stopped her, asking for a dance.

Shagun looked at him in disgust but when she saw Shaurya dancing with some girl, she fumed and accepted his hand, surprising Kabir. His heart danced with joy and he led her to the dance floor.

Shaurya watched this, sighing in relief, and then looked down at Anokhi who was staring at him, confused. Realizing what he had just done, he passed her a sheepish smile, took her hand, intertwining it with his, and started swaying with the music, leading her.

Anokhi shrugged out of her thoughts and whispered, "Yeh...yeh kya kar rahe hai aap?"

"Dance kar raha hu..." Shaurya replied casually. Anokhi glared at him for this generic answer while he kept averting his eyes.

But she wasn't backing off. Sighing, he said "Acha okay! Fine. I'm sorry tumhe aise kheechne ke liye. Mai tumhe dance ke liye puchne wala tha lekin achanak Shagun aagy aur muje kuch samjh nahi aya..isliye I just ....i'm sorry"

"Shagun?" Anokhi asked in a meek tone.

"The girl who is dancing with Kabir," he muttered audible enough for her, gesturing sideways. Anokhi looked at where he was pointing and saw a girl dressed in a cherry-red bodycon dress. Though she was dancing with Kabir, her eyes were fixated on Shaurya.

Anokhi gulped seeing her piercing gaze, she opened her mouth to ask something when Shaurya interrupted "Please let's not talk about her."

Noticing his foul mood, she agreed but then registering that were still dancing, actually not dancing. just standing and swaying with the music, she supplied "Lekin, muje dance karna nahi aata."

Shaurya narrowed his eyes, confused "Kyu jhooth bol rahi ho, Anokhi? I have seen you dancing. Itna acha toh karti ho."

Anokhi sighed, shaking her head "Let me rephrase. Muje iss tarah ka dance nahi karna aata. Aap kisi orr ke saath dance kar lijiye. Ab toh Shagun bhi busy hai." She said, her hand dropping from his shoulder to the side and her hold on his other hand loosened up.

Shaurya, in return, tightened his hold and placed her hand back on his shoulder "Arre. Aise kaise kisi orr ke saath dance karlu? Maine btaya na ki mai tumse puchne wala tha. I want to dance with you. Orr yeh koi rocket science nahi hai. You just follow my lead, okay?"

Anokhi looked at him in disbelief, she was about to revolt when she suddenly found herself being twirled around 2 or 3 times before Shaurya pulled her back. Holding her protectively, he then took some steps left and then right, few steps back and then forward.

Anokhi struggled to match his pace but after a while, her stiff body relaxed and she started following him, enjoying the dance.

Shaurya was happy seeing this "See, it's simple, right?". Anokhi smiled and nodded. He whirled her again, and when he pulled her back, her hands came resting on his shoulders while Shaurya's hands gently wraps around her tiny back.

"Vaise, I forgot to tell you something" he mumbled, gazing into her eyes. Anokhi furrowed her brows, waiting for him to continue.

Shaurya smirked and pulled her closer, his arms tightening around her back. Anokhi gasped, her hands automatically trailed forward and went around his neck. Their nose almost touching, she stared into his eyes, feeling the muscles in his stomach moving as he danced, keeping them moving with the rhythm.

He leaned forward, his cheeks gently brushed against her cheeks, and he whispered in her ears in a husky tone "You look beautiful today"

Anokhi shuddered, her lips parted in surprise, and her cheeks turned a shade of red. Shaurya drew back to look at her and laughed seeing her all flustered "Woah! Miss. Anokhi Bhalla blush bhi karti hai?" He teased and Anokhi's cheeks turned into a darker shade of red.

She lowered her eyes muttering a "Thank you" for the compliment while Shaurya smiled in return and they continued dancing.

***

Shagun stomped off from there as soon as the dance ended confusing Kabir but he shrugged it off recalling the closeness they just shared. The music then turned to some English songs, and the group decided to take a break and got seated in the lounge area, having some cold drinks and snacks. It was a bit quiet there, and so they were able to hear each other.

Shaurya got seated beside Anokhi "Enjoying?"

Anokhi smiled, nodding "Han lekin, music bohat loud hai. I'm going to have a bad headache after this party." she laughed at the end and Shaurya chuckled as well.

He, Ahir, and Anokhi were causally conversing about the party and college when they heard Kabir's voice. They looked at the adjacent couch and found Kabir and Reema arguing.

"Reema yar, I was just talking with her."

"No, I saw you were flirting. Seriously Kabir? After what she and her gang did to us?" Reema asked in disbelief.

"Arre. Reema kya hua hai?" Anokhi asked. They were normally talking some minutes ago, then what happened that tore such an aggressive reaction from Reema. She was not someone who would lose her cool so easily.

Reema turned to Anokhi "Kabir was flirting with the girl who tried ragging us that day."

Kabir facepalmed "Unhone baad mei aakar sorry bhi toh keh diya tha na..."

"Vo isliye kyuki humne unki comlaint nahi kari. Do you really think that they were sorry for what they did?" Reema said, raising her voice a little.

Kabir sighed and tried explaining "Reema yar... Past hai, bhool ja. Kyu baat ko itna kheech rahi hai?"

Reema threw her hands up in the air and said "Kabir, kehna easy hota hai..ki bhool jao...past hai. Lekin what they tried doing to us didn't deserve forgiveness and I'm sorry, I'm not going to forget that either." She then stormed off from there and Kabir went running behind her.

Shaurya and Ahir didn't interfere. Whereas, Anokhi's smile dimmed as Reema's words reverberated in her ears. She looked around and saw the same people dancing, enjoying, drinking, but suddenly it all seemed swirling before her eyes ...the huge club seemed like closing up on her. She was feeling suffocated, the smell of food and alcohol played with her nostrils and she felt like puking.

Shaurya noticed Anokhi rubbing her hands, her face pale, her eyes moving here and there as if thinking about something.

He clasped her hand immediately "Are you okay?" Ahir too looked in her direction, his brows lined with concern.

Anokhi looked at Shaurya, her eyes tearing up "I want to get out of here." Shaurya's hold on her hand tightened and he tugged her, making her stand. He then nodded at Ahir who blinked in assurance.

"Do you want to use the washroom?" Shaurya asked, leading her out of the club.

"No, I..I just want some fresh air" Anokhi mumbled as her voice choked with tears. Shaurya nodded. Spotting the pool area, he made her sit on one of the lounge chairs and himself got seated in front of her. "Do you want something? Water? Or anything?"

Anokhi shook her head, denying, and took deep breaths, inhaling the fresh air, her eyes closed shut, nails digging into her palm as she tried not thinking anything relating to her past. Shaurya watched her helplessly, not understanding what to do.

Suddenly, the doctor's words rang in his ears and he rushed inside, bringing her a chilled lemonade. "Have it. This might help."

Anokhi blinked her eyes open, taking the bottle from him. As the chilled lemonade glided through her throat to the stomach, she felt her nerves relaxing and her overactive brain coming to a pause. Taking a deep breath, she handed back the bottle to him.

When she gained her composure, Shaurya asked concerned "Feeling better?"

Anokhi nodded "Hmm...thank you".

"Mai abhi cab bulata hu. Let's go from here" Shaurya pulled out his phone but Anokhi stopped him holding his hand.

"Nahi Shaurya, mai theek hu. Yahan bahar acha lag raha hai". She looked around the secluded poolside area and felt her inner peace returning.

"Are you sure?"

Anokhi smiled "Han..."

Shaurya heaved a breath of relief and got seated on the other lounge chair, texting Ahir about their whereabouts. Putting back his phone, he glanced at Anokhi who was fidgeting with her fingers.

"Shayad, vo alcohol ki smell..." she started to explain, her eyes lowered but Shaurya intervened "It's okay, Anokhi. You don't need to explain anything. I understand."

Anokhi looked up at him, and he smiled. She too smiled back as relief washed over her. She didn't want to lie but she had no choice. These attacks were now becoming a frequent affair and before it ruins anything, she needs to do something about it.

***

Silence prevailed, the reflection of water dancing on the two souls. Shaurya loosened up his coat, placing his glasses inside it and Anokhi pulled up her legs, sitting cross-legged.

"Vaise, vo ladki..Shagun right? Aapko usse kya problem hai?" Anokhi spoke up, trying to make a conversation

Shaurya laughed sarcastically, looking at the pool, "Ahh! Kahan se start karu?"

"It's okay, if you don't want to share. Maine toh bas aise hi..." Anokhi quickly clarified, fearing she might have crossed her limit.

"It's okay Anokhi. There is nothing to hide. Actually, I know Shagun since school time. She used to be my friend. Lekin kuch time baad I realized that she is...sorry for my wording but, she is an opportunist. She was with me because she thought my status and money will do good for her."

Shaurya turned his head to look at Anokhi, expecting her to speak her thoughts on Shagun but surprisingly, she was waiting for him to continue.

He sighed, leaning back on the chair as the memories of Star played in his mind and a smile curved his lips "Anokhi, I... I don't know if you will understand or not but for me, friendship is not a game. It's a blessing that can make you the happiest person, no matter what your status. It's a bond of understanding. It's where you can behave as you are, you can be genuine without the fear of being judged. Jiske saath tumhe comfort mehsoos ho, jiske saath tumhe..."

"Time ka pta na chale. Jiske saath tum apne saari problems share kar sako, jiske saath tum ro sako...has sako...aur kabhi kabhi silly baatein bhi kar sako. Someone whom you could trust with anything." Anokhi completed for him, thinking about Ladoo.

She had realized that she and Ladoo got already bonded in a thread of friendship the moment she shared her feelings with him, but she being a child, wanted to establish a pure bond with him without the fear of getting scolded by her teacher.

So, she had delayed it till they get to meet each other. And maybe that has been her biggest mistake.

"So, you do understand what I'm trying to say..." Shaurya said, seeing her lost in thoughts. Anokhi nodded, smiling "Bohat ache se"

"To answer your question, Shagun is the complete opposite of a good friend. I don't think she even understands the true meaning of friendship. That's why I don't like being around her." Shaurya completed while Anokhi felt a little bad thinking of the assumptions she made about him.

She never took him as a person who could have such views about these beautiful yet complex relationships. He always seemed to her as a rich-not spoilt brat, who doesn't know the meaning of struggles. But after seeing him preparing for the elections, his commitment towards work, she realised that she was wrong, she doesn't really know him. He was a mystery package, everyday she gets to know a new layer of him.

"Anyways, let's not talk about her. Tell me something about you." Shaurya said, lightening up the mood.

Anokhi chuckled "Me? Kyu? Koi interview chal raha hai?"

"Nahi. But we know each other for a month now aur kuch hafto se we are on talking terms as well...ab toh tum meri dost bhi bann gy ho toh hume ek dusre ke baare mei pta hona chahiye na" He stated the facts. He was curious to know more about her.

"Dost? We...we are friends?" Anokhi asked, surprised. Well finally, she will get some clarity if they were neighbors or work colleagues or friends.

Shaurya narrowed his eyes, not understanding what she meant. "Han. Kyu? Nahi hai?"

"Nahi. I mean humari kabhi iss bare mei baat nahi hui toh..." Anokhi tried explaining, confused why he was so shocked by her question.

"Ismei baat karne wala kya hai? Itne dino se we are sharing such good times, sharing a good bond, and here I'm talking to you about my past, and you still think we are not friends?" He asked in an impassive tone.

"Aap galat samjh rahe hai. Rehne dijiye. It was a stupid question, I'm sorry" Anokhi looked away, embarrassed for voicing out her thoughts. Was it that obvious? Were they really friends?

Shaurya fell silent, thinking about what she said. Realization dawned upon him, and he mentally face palmed.

"No. It was not stupid. Mai samjh gya tum kya kehna chahti ho. Humari shuruwat hi kaafi ajeeb tareeke se hui thi. Understanding se pehle toh misunderstandings zyada thi. We should have talked about this. Agar ladte time hum sab clearly bol dete hai toh dosti ke time kyu peeche hatna?"

Anokhi lifted her eyes to look at him, relieved to know that she was right. Shaurya smiled, and stood up from his seat "I should formally ask you to be my friend. "

Anokhi got ready to shake his hand when he said "But handshakes are so common."

Anokhi's smile turned into a frown "WHAT?" and the next moment she saw Shaurya bending on his one knee "Shaurya, yeh kya kar rahe hai aap?"

He passed her a sheepish smile and asked forwarding his hand "Miss. Anokhi Bhalla, can we be friends?" Anokhi's jaw dropped and she gaped at him, shocked.

Few seconds passed and Anokhi just kept staring at him. "Jaldi bolo...dance kar karke mera paer dukh raha hai" he said breaking her trance.

Anokhi shook her head, smiling, and stood up from her seat. She held his hand and nodded "Yes. I would like to be your friend."

Shaurya gripped her hand, beaming at her, and they looked into each other's eyes, unaware that a shooting star has just passed from above their head.

A few moments later, both laughed at what they just did and got seated on the chair. "So, Miss. Bhalla, kuch btaiye apne baare mei..."

Anokhi went into a deep thought "Umm..let's see. Ab takk aapko pta chal hi gya hoga ki mujhe padhna pasand hai orr likhna bhi (Shaurya nodded). Apart from that, I'm an introvert. I take time in trusting people...and..."

She trailed off as she tried thinking about her favorite colors or food or anything but nothing struck her mind. She had always lived a life of sacrifices and adjustments. Likings were a momentary thing for her because if she had any, it was meant to be suppressed and be kept to herself.

Anokhi tried holding back her tears and her sight fell upon the blanket of stars. She smiled "and I like gazing at the stars. They are like my best friends. Whenever I'm in a bad mood or something, I find my peace by looking at them. Infact, I like reading about them as well, it's my favorite pass time." She said while trying to find some patters.

Shaurya's eyes widen the moment she completed, and he stared at her as thousands of thoughts crossed his mind. He went into a flashback. He remembered his dad telling him that she was from Kapurthala.

And her words...the familiarity .... could she be...was it possible? Or was he missing Star so much that it made him overthink? Is it just a coincidence?

Shaurya's heartbeat accelerated, he gulped and opened his mouth to ask when he saw Reema running towards Anokhi, engulfing her in a back hug.

Anokhi smiled, turning her head a little "Aree. Tum logo ki ladai sort hogy?". Kabir, who was standing beside her nodded and Anokhi sighed in relief.

Ahir nudged his elbow to a lost Shaurya "Tuje kya hua?". He looked at Ahir, shrugging out of his thoughts, and shook his head gesturing nothing.

Shaurya picked his coat and they decided to call it a day as they were hell tired.

Reema decided to stay the night at Anokhi's while Ahir decided to stay at Shaurya's flat. And Kabir decided to go home.

Thanks for tag And update .

Beautiful update n thanks for long update till we get next one.take your time.I Am reading NWM as well.

Haa SS avoiding shagun was so good but also loved the bit where he talks about friendship and now can understand him better the way he avoided AB when she moved in their house thinking she was another oppurtunist.

Ahir is definitely got the hint now what ss has feelings for AB.

Anokhi surprised at SS Calling her friend as all her close relationships are interwined with pain n hurt .Even with SS she started on a bad note.Loved the way he explains to her what friendship means to him and their relation has grown up to be labelled as friends.n shooting star witnessing their friendship ❤❤

We can survive with this update till next .
