Chapter OneIt was a beautiful sunny morning in Dehradun. The trees were just shady enough, the birds were chirping and the wind was flowing.
"Perfect," thought Piya Jaiswal as she sat down under a tree to finish reading her book. The wind was blowing her black, straight hair into her face, but she just brushed it off carelessly. The book was more important.
Most of the other kids in college were playing or in the canteen or finishing their work, but Piya was different. She had everything she ever wanted. Friends, fun, school, studies, good marks... But the one thing she missed was her mom, who had died due to cancer.
"DUDE!" came a voice, "
Kya yaar, Piya!"
"Oh GOD!" Piya frowned, shutting her book, "What is it, Misha? This part is SO interesting!
Kya hua?"
"Piya," her best friend Misha, who should've been born a guy instead of a girl, sighed. "It's a free period.
Sab log masti kar rahe hain. Aur tum! Reading a novel?"
"It's The Vampire Diaries," Piya argued, "It's the perfect book to read."
"Whatever, dude! You are such a spoilsport... and look! Here comes your dear Abhay. As usual,
woh tumhari hi side lega. Chamcha!"
Piya looked up to see her other friend, Abhay Raichand approaching them. There was something about Abhay that brought a smile to Piya's face. Smiling is contagious, she'd heard. Maybe it was true. Abhay always smiled.
"What's up?" Abhay asked, taking a look at Piya's book. "Vampire Diaries? What the hell! You believe in vampires, Piya?
Paagal ho gayi ho kya? Aisa kuchh nahi hota..."
"Oh shut up," Piya rolled her eyes, "It's SO romantic! I totally love these books."
"
Achcha Abhay," Misha turned to him, "Help me convince Piya to do something fun. Free period
hai aur ye kitabi keeda! Tell her to come with us...
Hum basketball khelenge!"
"Ummm..." Abhay thought for a minute, then grinned, "Let Piya read then. We'll play one on one!"
"Abhay, you're such a darling!" Piya grinned and got up to give him a hug. "You're my favourite person ever!"
"Aww, thanks!" Abhay grinned again, looking down, "I think -"
"
Uff, whatever!
Chalo ab! Bye,
keeda!" Misha frowned at Piya and dragged Abhay away.
"Are you crazy?" Misha told Abhay as they walked towards the court, "
Tum uske peeche lattoo ho. Itna obvious
hai! Ask her out, man!"
"
Kaun, Piya?" Abhay laughed, "
Nahi, aisa nahi hai. I don't like her."
"Seriously?" Misha smiles, shaking her head, "Then who is the love of your life?
Koi toh hogi, I'm sure.
Tum jaise hotties zyaada der single nahi rehte!"
Abhay was about to reply when the college's Queen Bee, Tanushree walked past them with her friends, "I mean, like, GOD!
Main itni hot hoon! He totally isn't in my league. What say, babes?"
Her friends laughed.
"T," Abhay shrugged, "I think she's hot."
"Ha! Yeah, right!" Misha laughed, "I hope you're kidding. Anyway,
chalo, let's play!"
"Hey, Misha!"
It was that weird guy, Kabir.
"Hi Kabir! Bye Kabir!" Misha replied carelessly and turned back to Abhay.
Kabir sighed. He was the "weird guy", because he was friends with the popular people, but no one still knew him. He didn't have any girlfriend, and he was a third year student. That didn't make him undateable...
"
Abey Kabir!" Angad, his friend, slapped him on the back, "
Tu har waqt ladkiyon ko "hi" karta rehta hai. Kabhi theek se baat toh kar!"
"Dude," Kabir sighed, "
Mujhse normal ladki bhi nahi pat ti. How will I ever impress Misha? She's so cool!"
"
Tumhe usme kya dikhta hai?" Angad laughs, "Try for Tanushree.
Usko kuch gifts de do, that's it. She'll be yours!"
"But I don't want T!" Kabir cried, "I don't like her!"
"Eww, so tacky!" T walked towards him, "Loser, don't take my name ever again.
Tumhare muh se itna stylish naam bhi ganda lagta hai. And BTW, you do want me. Don't you?" She asked him, grinning.
"
Haan... I want you..." Kabir nodded, dazed.
"
Ae! Kabir!" Angad gasped, "
Tu pagal ho gaya kya?"
"Let's go, girls!" T grinned, and walked away, giving Kabir one last glance. There. One more guy who had "fallen" for her. But she didn't want any of them. There was just one guy she wanted... who never paid attention to her. And somehow, her tricks never worked on him.
Main kuch toh soch loongi, T thought, smirking.
Kyonki jab mujhe kuchh chahiye, toh main usey paane ke liye kuchh bhi kar sakti hoon... Kuch bhi!!!-----------------------------------------
Next:
Jeh Khurana's entry. Piya consoles Kabir about Misha, but Kabir says that he doesn't feel anything for Misha anymore. Angad is confused, as usual.
Misha overhears T talking to Jeh about something to do in the forests after dusk. She decides to investigate, because she doesn't have any homework to do and has a lot of free time.
