"Uday, I dare you to kiss Manyata," Rahul repeats. All of a sudden I feel so hesitant, and that same sensation is on the verge of bursting out. I get an urge to go on and complete the dare, but my mind fights against the urge; it's telling me not to. Which do I follow; the heart or the mind? I look at Uday and try to tell him not to do it. But he looks at me calmly, and we both share an eye lock.
"Fine, I'll do it but you have to all close your eyes," Uday says.
"But-" Rahul starts to protest.
"-no buts, now do you all agree?" Uday interrupts Rahul. Everyone nods, and they all close their eyes. Uday gives me an apologetic smile, as we stand face to face. I gulp and then close my eyes. Our lips meet, and a burst of fireworks goes off inside me. The same sensation comes back from the night at the forest; it slowly trickles down my spine. His finger slowly dances among my arm; leaving goose bumps behind. Then he breaks away because he gets distracted. And I stand there confused; trying to fight back to reality. "Oye Rahul! Come back here with the camera," Uday exclaims. Unniti and Jay laugh and I quietly sit back in my place.
"You guys looked perfect together," Unniti whispers to me. I can't help but smile a little. They did see us and Rahul took a picture; that is so embarrassing. Uday walks into the room with the camera in his hands. He then sits between me and Unniti.
"Shall we delete the picture?" he whispers to me, but I shrug. He then hids the camera behind him, and we carry on with the game.
"So who's left to be dared or to spill the truth?" Jay asks.
"Choti and Manu," Uday tells her.
"Hey, I've already done a dare!" I exclaim, and I soon feel a blush creeping on to my cheeks.
"Alright then. It's only Unniti left," Rahul says. "By the way, what's for diner?"
"OMG! I forgot about diner. What should we do?" I exclaim.
"Don't worry, I'll order us a pizza," Rahul says and we all agree. He then goes to order a pizza.
"Anyways, truth or dare Unniti?" Jay asks. Unniti hesitates for a while, it seems like she's thinking over some things.
"Truth please," She says. Me and Uday exchange a look.
"Unniti," I say. She looks at me and I carry on. "Who was that guy with you yesterday in the restaurant?" Unniti blushes a little bit before answering.
"He was just a friend," She says. I raise my eyebrow.
"So you ditched a friend to see another frind? Unniti it can't just be a 'friend', or why else would you blush?" I ask her.
"Manyata, I'm sorry that I dtiched you and okay I'll tell you," She says. Rahul walks back in and sits down. Jay quickly tells him what he's missed. Rahul nods and Unniti carries on. "That guy with me was called Karan. He's really sweet," Unniti confessed.
"Aww... I knew it," I say to Uday. Uday just smiles slightly; he's probably still worried about his sister.
"You knew it?" Jay asks. I gulp, I forgot that nobody knows that we were spying.
"Well, after Unniti ditched me, I went looking for her everywhere. That's when I saw her with Karan," I say. They all nod.
"Unniti, you're gonna have to make us meet this Karan person," Rahul says.
"Yes, I want to see if this guy is right for my Choti," Uday says.
"Do you want me to tell him to come now then?" Unniti asks. I look at the clock; it was 11pm. I look at the clock; it was 11pm.
"Unniti, maybe not today. It's quite late now," I tell her.
"Yeah, we can always meet him tomarrow," Jay says. Then the doorbell sings and Rahul goes to open it. He comes back with two pizza boxes in his hands.
"Come to the kitchen if you want pizza," he says. Jay and Unniti follow him.
"Don't you want any pizza Princess?" Uday asks.
"No, I'm not that hungry," I tell him. He then takes the camera out from its hiding place and we stare at it.
"Let's delete the picture," I say. He turns it on and we look at the hoto. We do look perfect lik Unniti had said. My hands were around his neck and his were on my waist.
"I'm deleting it now," Uday tells me.
"Okay," I say. He deletes the picture and then we walk to the kitchen.
"Finally you guys come," Rahul exclaims. I laugh and take a sice of pizza.
"So where we sleeping tonight" Jay asks.
"Well there's three rooms," I tell them.
"How about the girls take one room and the boys can take anothr," Unniti says.
"Yeah thats fine with me," I tell them. After we've finished eating, I show them the rooms. The boys get Akash's office which now has been turned into a bedroom and the girls stay in my room.
"So how does this Karan look like?" I ask Unniti, nudging her; she blushes.
"Well he's quite good looking, but I think it's his personality that counts the most," she says.
"Carry on," Jay says. We were now all sitting on the bed next to Unniti. Poor girl, we must be putting so much pressure on her right now.
"Well he's a really nice person. He's quite funny, and he's got good manners," Unniti continues.
"Okay, so how did you meet him?" I ask.
"Well, I can't really remember," Unniti says.
"I'm sure you do, please tell us," Jay says. Then there's a knock on the door.
"Come in," I say. Rahul and Uday both walk in.
"Can we say two things?" Rahul asks.
"Sure," Unniti says.
"First of all, don't grill my sister with all your questions," Uday says, he must have heard us.
"Okay...," Jay says. "And the other thing?"
"Well I was lucky enough to get these," Rahul says, showing us 6 tickets, "So tommorow we're going to the theme park!"
"You must be joking," Jay says.
"6 tickets..." Unniti stammers.
"There's 6? That means Karan can come as well!" I say.
"Yeah, I'll text him right now," Unniti says.
"But Rahul, where did you get them from?" Jay asks.
"Babes, does it matter?" Rahul says.
"At least we get to have fun tomorrow," Uday says, and he winks at me.
"You two do have a point there," Jay says.

(The next day)
"Is everyone ready now?" Rahul asks.
"Wait a scond," Unniti says, and she rushes into my room. I follow her to see what was wrong.
"Karan are you coming?" Unniti asks, worried. She was talking to him on the phone.
"Okay, come quickly then," Sh rplies back.
"Unniti, is everything okay?" I ask her.
"Yes Manyata. He'll be here soon, we should start to get going," She tells me. I nod and we walk back into the enterance.
"Everyone ready now?" Rahu asks.
"Yes," Unniti says, and we head towards our mini bus with our baggage.
