Part 1
Tia pouted picking up the blue shirt she had kept last night to wear to college, but suddenly the shirt seemed to plain, and the jeans seemed too faded.
That was it. Time to look for new clothes.
'sid, tia ko kuch samaj nahi aa raha ki wo kya pehene!', she asked her least interested brother who sat on her bed waiting for her to finish, so he could get over it, and get the money he usually got, for assisting his sisters gruelling dressing spree every morning.
And assisting did not mean just sit there and pass his opinion, assisting meant helping her try on the clothes, find her clothes to wear, and clear up after the mess she made, not to mention no gadgets allowed into her dressing room, 'no sid, tia ke kapde kharab ho jaayenge!', she would say as she ruffled sids hair, and continued with her morning session.
But today, instead of answering instantaneously as he usually did, sid seemed to be fiddling with his pant pocket looking for something.
'kya hua?', tia asked as she settled herself delicately on the bed beside him, not wanting to crush her clothes.
'naaah. Nothing.', he replied, after considering, revising, and calculating his sisters reactions.
'tell me sid, kya hua?'
'nothing, wo actually na, wo mera phone. Im expecting a call and tum ne to....'
'oh tias god! Sid tumhe phone andar na lane ko kaha tha, bahar jaake phone pe baat karne ke liye kisne mana kiya hai?', tia replied cutely as she combed her velvety soft hair, to which sid ran out of the room not bothering to look behind.
He quickly closed his room door and called up yuvi, his best friend, aka tias worst enemy.
'hey bro.... haan bro tia is busy combing her hair so don't worry, she wont know a thing... ya so canteen ke bahaar na....sure bro... by the way jis new student ko hum rag kar rahe hai uska naam kya haii??.... ranveer? Interesting... to kitne baje milna hai bro?... aur nakul? Us ko boloon kya?.. alright dude cya.'
And sid quiently put off the phone, and got ready to climb down the pipes, before tia caught him leaving without clearing up the mess she made. This was important, he had to leave. Or yuvis plan would fail. And that new student was way too goody to be a part of their college.
And all was fair in love and war, and this was WAR!
