Shivam quickly hid himself in a corner as he opened the letters without even thinking once about privacy. Reading them, he smirked. "You're so silly Kriya! You really think I let your lover boy read this? No ways! Sharon, you had slapped me right? Let's see how it hurts you seeing your bestest friend in pain. I will get back to you."

Saying so he formed a plan in his head

**Back to Present**

In RDX's office, they all stood together' all 11 of them. Even there, Kriya wasn't there which worried Rey further. Swayam typed on his cell and passed it to him. "Kriya is sick and home." Now he knew where she was but it hurt him to know that she couldn't pick up his calls once or at least reply back to him with a text. For the moment, he turned his attention to RDX.

RDX said, "Weaklings, congratulations to all of you for getting into finals." They replied back with thanks while the Dazzlers felt bad. "Dazzlers, I read the report and I will see to it that you guys are given a chance again. That was wrong and hopefully something can be done."They gave a smile back, a bit of hope back. "And there is news for you all. This will come as a bit of a shock to both the teams and I'm very sorry to tell this to you. But you have to know. Weaklings, you need to find a 6^th dancer and Rey, you need to find a new AGS. Kriya has left the college."

Hearing that, everyone's eyes went wide. That was the last thing they had expected. No one knew how to respond to that. The same questions were going through their heads. "But that's not possible. She's home. She told us!!" Swayam argued.

Rey whispered to himself, "She won't leave like that! No, this is a lie."

RDX replied, "I know it is a lot shocking to you and all of you were close to her. But it's the truth. She withdrew herself last night and she left this for you, Swayam."

Swayam looked at Rey with uncertainty. Rey looked back with the same look. Swayam took it from RDX, unsure of what to do next.

"That's all." RDX said and the hopes Rey had that she would have left something for her as well were crushed. Again, Swayam looked at Rey with shock and a look of 'She left me a note but not you?'

Everyone slowly exited RDX's office and then hell broke loose. Everyone voiced out their opinions at the same time. 'No, she can't leave.' 'Why would she leave over night?''Why didn't she tell us anything?'

Vishakha left from there. They just neglected that thinking it was just her way of dealing with it; being along. If only they knew the truth. She knew the truth and she just couldn't stay around them and stay silent and pretend that she was shocked as well.

Sharon wanted to talk to Swayam about it seeing his face but didn't know what to say. She felt silly for being jealous of Kriya and Swayam's close friendship. But that wasn't the point here. They had all lose a close friend and she wanted to be there for him like he had been for her. But he left as well after Rey.

At the other end of the hall, he called out to Rey. "Rey stop. Rey, what' do you know anything?"

"How would I know? She left you the note! Not me." he spit out with harshness. Then he quickly said sorry for reacting like that to him. "I'm sorry' Sorry' I just want to be left alone. This all just feels like a nightmare."

Swayam held him back by holding his shoulder. "Don't you want to see what she wrote in the letter?"

"If I was meant for me to read, then it would be to both of us. But this is for you. So you should read it yourself." He started walking again and Swayam caught up to him and stood in front of him to stop him.

"Rey stop. Don't be like this. Okay, this letter is for me right? I want you to hear as well. Come with me." Swayam pulled him to a silent corner deserted from rest of the college.

"Swayam' how do I say this? It's time for good bye. I came here in hopes on dancing. And I did. You guys are in the Foot Loose. I have to go now. Where, Why and all those questions, I cannot answer. I wish I could but I can't. If I do tell you guys, you all will come looking for me and I don't want it. It's already hard enough for me. The months I've been here have been the best. You guys are great friends and I will never forget you guys. But you guys have to and need to move on. Life isn't fair and well, that is the same for me. I did some things' for which I'm paying right now' The price is to leave you guys. I wish it could be some other way' but sadly, it cannot be. The only reason for me to stay back was you guys and the team' my dream of dancing and my passion. It has all gone down in drains. Good Bye. Tell Rey'"

He stopped there as he pre-read the next. Rey insisted he go on. "What does it say?" Swayam stayed mum and he pressured. "Go on Swayam. After hearing all this, I think I can bear the rest."

Swayam gulped and continued, "Tell Rey to not look for me. He never meant anything to me and I was just playing around with him to get what I wanted. 'Kriya."

Rey gulped down his emotions and left, not staying to listen to Swayam. Swayam couldn't believe this was the same Kriya he knew. His heart told him there was another story behind it. This just can't be. She loved him. Something has definitely happened. He looked out the place where Rey had exited. More than himself and his friends and team, he was worried for Rey. It would be the hardest for him.
