FF - Kaisa Yeh Pyaar Hai Abhiya Recontinued!!!

Part 1

It was a foggy morning, as Piya, Misha, and Panchi Dobrial stepped onto the grounds of their new college, Mount College. Their family had just moved from Delhi to Dehradun, and all three girls were excited to make new friends.

"Kya mausam hai yaar! I love it – kitna alag hai Delhi se, hai na?" Piya jumped around excitedly.

"Arre Piya, logon ko pehle ilne tho do…phir tera yeh bubbly nature nikaal….itne subhe subhe kaise itna excited ho sakti hai tu?" Misha asked her, rubbing her eyes.

Panchi smiled fondly at her youngest sister, and said "Tu iksi baat mat sun Piya. Main jaanthi hoon ke tumhe humse zyaada jaldi dost mil jayenge."

Piya just smiled back at her sister, hoping that she would, indeed, make new friends fast. "Didi, tumhe Danish jiju ki bohot yaad arahi hogi na?"

"Haan, lekin hum roz phone pe baat karenge, aur main jaanthi hoon ke hum jaldi milenge…patha nahi kyun aisa lagra hai jaise yaha tum dono ko bhi koi special milne wala hai…"

"Eeew….Didz, please is topic ko aur math badao…." Misha growled at Panchi.

The three of them continued walking through the campus towards the principal's office, where he helped them get settled with paperwork and maps of their classes. He was especially proud to have Piya there, as she was a scholarship student. It showed that even though she was rich, she liked to work for herself and not rely on her family's influence. The principal told them to ask Kabir Raichand for any help they may need, as he was one of the college's best students, and one of the most involved. "He's very reliable and is a good boy. I have known him for a few years now, since they moved here. His parents have brought him up well. I know he wont take advantage of you young beautiful girls" said the principal, smiling.

Meanwhile, a Rolls Royce pulled up in the parking lot of the school. Inside it were two extremely good looking young men.

"Aaj teen naye ladkiya arahi hai humare school main….bachke rehna Kabir. You know how you get….mujhe hamesha dar lagta hai ke tum ek din hamari secret batado ge kisi ko." Abhay said in a low voice.

Kabir just laughed at his brother, shaking his head. "Arre yaar, just relax. I can keep a secret. Tu bas jalta hai mujhse ke tu apni pyaas ko mere jaise control nahi kar sakta. I'm absolutely fine…"

"Yeah right. Mujhe kitne saalo mein waisi pyaas nahin lagi hai….whatever. Just be careful around them, Kabir."

They both stepped out of the car and started walking towards their first class. Abhay looked down as he walked, and Kabir was waving to all the girls who were smiling at them both. Suddenly, Abhay bumped into Piya. Startled, she dropped her books.

"Arre yaar, dekhe ke nahi chalsakthe kyat um?" yelled Misha, as she bent down to help Piya pick up her books. Abhay quickly gathered the rest of the papers and handed them over to Piya, who smiled at him.

"Sorry" Abhay said, in a low voice.

"No problem, ho jaatha hai kabhi kabhi…Hi, I'm Piya." She smiled at them both.

Kabir suddenly started smiling extra wide, and ran his fingers through his hair.

"My name is Kabir, and this is Abhay, my brother. Na jaane humne kya acche karam kiye hai, ke hume yeh honor mila, kit um jaise khubsoorat laadki se mile aaj. Are you new here?"

Piya blushed, and Panchi nudged her with her shoulder. Abhay just narrowed his eyes at Kabir.

Misha jumped at the name. "Kabir, as in Kabir Raichand? Tum tho hamari madat karne wale ho na?"

"Yep, guilty as charged. Main tum logon ki madat karunga." He smiled at them, then looked at Piya, who just was smiling at him.

"Kitni khoobsurat hai yeh Piya. Isse pehle maine itne pyaare chehre ko nahin dekha. Aur, iske face pe zara sa bhi makeup nahin…a natural beauty. Iss pet ho meri gift zaroor chalegi." Kabir thought to himseld.

Abhay growled at Kabir, "Maine tumse car main kya kaha tha, yaad hai na?" Then he whispered in Kabir's ear "Iss ladki ko math fasao apni power ke saath. Yeh bohot positive aur bubbly lagthi hai…agar patha chala na isse, tho yeh zaroor hamara raaz sabko batha degi."

Kabir just laughed and shook his head. "I know Abhay. Just chill."

The wind suddenly started to blow, and Piya's hair flew towards Abhay's face. Abhay stiffened, with a confused look on his face. Then suddenly, he looked at Piya with anger, and quickly walked away from there. Everyone just stood there confused.

"Maine kuch galat kaha kya? Woh chala kyun gaya?" Piya asked sadly.

Kabir put his arm around her shoulders, and said smilingly "Don't worry Piya. Who aisa hi karta hai. Uski tension tum mat lo. Woh bura insaan nahi hai…I know he sometimes seems rude or arrogant, aur woh kisi se baat nahin karta. Lekin actually main, he is the sweetest guy ever. Uska nature bohot loving hai, lekin woh kisi ko dikhatha nahi hai."

The three sisters just nodded their heads, and Panchi and Misha looked at each other, wondering if they should let this new guy touch Piya like that. They knew their sister was very innocent, and didn't want anyone to take advantage of her bholapan. Then they remembered the principal's words, and decided it would be alright, as long as they watched over Piya for a while to make sure Kabir was alright.

"Abhay se phirse hamari mulakat kab hogi Kabir?" Piya asked.

"Jaldi hogi Piya. Waise, jab main yaha hoon, tho uske baare mein sochkar kya haida? Main hoon na."

All four of them smiled and climbed the stairs to their first class.

Part 2

"Wow...Main kitni thak gayi hoon! Aaj ka din bohot lumba tha, na?" Panchi tiredly walked down the steps of her last class, and headed for their car.

"Nahi tho, didi. Mujhe tho bohot maza agaya! Kabir ne hume achchi company di, aur ek pal ke liye bhi hamara saath nahin choda. Kitne achche ho tum, Kabir!" Piya smiled at her new friend.

Kabir smiled at her. "Arre, tum log ho hi itne pyaare, tumhe chodke jaane ka maan hi nahin kiya! Aur vaise bhi, principal sahab ne kaha tha mujhse ke main har vakth tumhare saath rahoo thaki tum logo par koi thaklif na pade. Tho main bas apna farz nibhara tha, lekin tum log tho bohot cool nikle!"

"Agar Abhay bhi hamare saath hota, tho mujhe aur acha lagta, Kabir. Kyunki woh bechara din bhar akela hi tha. Humare saath lunch tho kiya, lekin side mein behtke, aur koi baat nahi ki usne. Woh theek tho hai na?" Piya wondered.

"Tum us uloo ke pathe ke bare main itni chinta karke apna yeh khubsoorat chehra par wrinkles mat lana. Woh tho ek number ka idiot hai in sab baro main. Usse rehne do. Main hoon na tumhare saath." Kabir reassured her.

"Agar mere bare main shikayath karna hogaya hai tumhara, tho kya hum ghar ja sakthe hai?" Abhay came out of nowhere and asked Kabir, while glaring at him.

"Abhay, hum tumhare bare mein hi baat kar rahethe. Tum aleke the na poore din, isliye poochrahi hoon." Piya smiled at Abhay.

Abhay's POV

Yeh Piya itni enthu kyun hai mujhe leke? Zaroor yeh mera mazak uda rahi hai. Abhi dekhta hoon...Arre. Yeh kya hai...main uske man ko sun nahi para hoon...Yeh kya ho raha hain?! Aur yeh khusbhoo...Inti achi khushbhoo kabhi nahi ayi hai...mujhe bohot bhook bhi lagne lagi hai...shayad, bas ek baar – woh mere saath zaroor ayegi...Ek kone mein lekar uska...Abhay!! control yourself...yeh kya ho gaya hai tujhe? Bas kar apna yeh bakwas...Tujhe pehle kabhi takleef nahi hoon tera control rakhne main...tho yeh kya...Iss ladki ke vajay se main apne aap par kaboo nahi rakh para hoon...mujhe yahan se jana hoga...Yeh idiot ladki. Iski fault hai...mujhe kahi door jana hoga...I glared at Piya and ran to the car. I sat inside and closed my ears. I tried to breathe calmly...yeh Kabir bhi na, jab uski zaroorath ho, tab ladki ke saath hota hai. Aur jab uska saath nahi chahiye, tab ek machchar ki tarah mujhe tang kartha hai...I honked the horn at him.

"Ab chaloge ke nahin? Poora din nahi hai mere paas yahan waste karne..."

"Achcha baba, atha hoon. Bye guys!" Kabir waved to Panchi and Misha. Then he went closer to Piya and whispered in her ear "Bye Piya. Ab main ghar jaake immediately sone jatha hoon, ok? Aur tum bhi sojao, theek hai?"

Piya had a confused look on her face. I did too, until I read Kabir's mind. Oh god...koi bachao mujhe...

"Kyunki mujhe tum waha hi milogi na, sapne main? Kal thak inthazar nahi kar saktha main. Aaj rath thak bhi nahi...so, mein ghar jathe jathe hi tumse sapne mein miloonga..." Kabir leaned away from her ear and winked at her. Piya blushed – she looks like a tomato...Hai rabba...

"Ey Kabir. Meri behen ko bimbos ki tarah blush kyun karva rahe ho? Just go ok? Bye" Misha told him laughingly.

Main kyun yeh sab sun raha hoon? Yeh super hearing bhi na...Maine apni kaan phirse band kiye. Kabir smiled and ran towards the car...finally. As soon as he sat down, maine accelerator zorse press kiya, aur hum chale the vaha se.

"Itni der kyun ki? Main kya tumhara driver hoon kya, jo har vakth tumhara intazaar kartha rahunga? Agli baar tumhe chodke jaunga, aur phir tum un theeno se lift mang lena."

"Abhay, tujhe ho kya gaya tha, ha? Poore din tum jaise behave kar rahe ho, maine voh sab sambhala. Lekin abhi, jab Piya itne pyar se pooch rahi thi, tho yeh tune kya kiya? Mujhe use pacify karna tha, jab tu aise chala gaya thab. Maine kaha ke tujhe koi stomach pain satharahi hai, isliye tu aise chala gaya."

"Patha nahi bro, mujhe kya ho gaya tha. Bohot ajeeb sa lagraha tha. Patha hai tumhe? Main uska mann nahi pad saktha. Yeh pehli baar hua hai. Mere samajh mein nahi atha. Aur phir, woh uski khusbhoo...kitni achi thi...I dont know mujhe kya hoga tha. Main apne ap pe control nahi rak paraha tha...uss ladki ke vaja se, pehli bar maine almost apna control gavaya. Bohot dard ho raha hai mere throat mein. Maine kaise control phirse paya, sirf mujhe patha hai. Aur sar main bhi dard ho raha hai...maine bohot koshish ki uske mann ko sunne ki, lekin koi faida nahi...Mere samajh mein nahi atha main kya karu."

"Abhay, mere bhai, tu bas tension mat le. Dad koi tho jawab dhoondenge. So tu fikar mat kar. Agar tujhe bohot dard hota hai Piya ke paas, to phir paas mat aao. Anyways, who meri hai."

"Come on Kabir. Uska pehla din tha school main, aur tumne already usko claim kiya hai? Tumhe kaise patha ke yeh ladki teek hai hamare parivaar ke liye? Aur woh bhi aisi ladki, jo mujhe itna sathathi hai?"

"Patha hai Abhay, aaj pehli baar woh ghanti baji. Dad ne kaha tha na, ke Maa jab unke paas pehli baar ayi thi, toh unhe koi violin music sunaegayi? Vaise hi, aaj maine apne dil mein ghanti suni."

"Lekin Kabir, ghanti suna aur violin music suna dono alag baat hai."

"Nahi Abhay. Piya ke saath kuch aisa hua, jo pehle kabhi nahi hua tha. Main jaantha hoon, ke voh hamare ghar ki bahu zaroor banegi."

"Yeah yeah theek hai. Chalo andar abhi aur mujhe Dad ko batane do ke aaj kya hua."

We both ran inside the house.

Piya's POV

Kitna ajeeb hai yeh Abhay. Aur uska bahi kitna opposite hai, woh kitna friendly hai.

"Hey Piya. Kya sochne lagi tu?" Panchi asked.

"Are Panchi, yeh koi poochne ki baath hai kya? Obviously, woh apne naye boyfriend Kabir ke bare main soch rahi hai." Misha teased, as they entered the house.

"Shut up Misha. Aisa kuch nahi hai. Woh mera boyfriend nahi, sirf mera dost hai. Jaise ke tumhara bhi dost hai."

Nobody's POV

"Kaun sirf dost hai? Piya, tujhe pehle hi din pe boyfriend milgaya, beta?" Richa walked in from the kitchen and smiled at her daughter.

Jeet also walked in from the study. "Kyun, isme hairaan hone ki kya baat hai, Richa? Meri beti hai hi inti pyaari." He smiled fondly at his favorite daughter.

"Yeah papa, hum sab jaanthe hai woh kitni pyaari hai. Lekin aapko iss ladke se milna nahi hai kya?" Misha told him.

" Of course mujhe milna hai. Kyun beta, yeh kya chakar hai? Pehle hi din pe, kissi ladke ne tumhe kaise impress kiya, huh? Jeet looked at Piya.

"Nahin papa. Woh mera boyfriend nahi hai. Bas, woh aise hi mazak karaha tha. Lekin woh bohot acha hai papa. Usne poore din hamari madat ki."

"Piya maine tujhe aaj subha hi kaha tha na? Tum dono ko bhi koi milne wala hai yaha pe – someone special. See, aur woh tho immediately sach ho gaya." Panchi teased.

"Ab tu woh gaane ga Piya, teri meethi avaaz main – koi mil gaya..mera dil gaya...kya bathau yaaron...mein tho hil...gayi!!!" Misha started singing in a very off pitch voice.

"Kya tum log. Papa, dekhiye na yeh mujhe kitna satharahe hain." Piya complained.

"Haan beta. Yeh sab kya hai? Kyun meri bachi ko pareshan kar rahe ho tum log, huh?" Jeet pretended to be stern with Misha and Panchi.

"Aap bhi na, Jeet. Ab sab log chaliye, aur khana khathe hai. Aur kaun mila school mein?" Richa said.

"Mama, Kabir ka bhai-" Piya started to say.

"Ek minute. Kabir kaun?" Richa asked. "Arre mama, aap kitne slow hai. Kabir matlab obviously, Piya ka koi mil gaya wala. Uska lover boy." Richa looked at Piya, who was scowling at Misha, and laughed.

"Anyways, tu kya kehrahi thi, beta?" Jeet asked Piya.

"Papa, woh Kabir ka bhai hai na, Abhay. Woh bohot ajeeb hai. Hamesha akela akela rehtha hai, kisi se baat nahi kartha, aur mujhe totally ignore kiya. Aisa kyun kiya hoga usne?"

"Piya, lekin Kabir ne tho kaha tha ke woh sab se aise hi behave kartha hai, lekin woh actually mein bohot sweet hain. Yaad hai, na?" Panchi told her.

"Haan, lekin uska kya faida, jab woh sabse aise barthav karega, jaise woh is duniya pe koi meherbani kar raha hai, just by living!" Misha said, angrily.

"Lekin koi majboori hogi Misha. Ya phir woh bohot uncomfortable hoga hamare saath. Shayad ghar pe woh aur normal hoga, jaise Kabir ne kaha tha. Itni jaldi assume nahi karna chahiye, Misha." Piya reprimanded her sister.

"Dekho meri bachi ko. Kiski ke baare main bura nahi sun sakthi, even arrogant logo ke bare main, jisne uske saath bathameezi ki hogi tho bhi." Jeet hugged Piya, before pulling out her chair at the dinner table, so she could sit.

"Yeah yeah...Ab chodo yeh sab bathe, aur khana khathe hai." Richa said.

They all sat down and enjoyed their dinner of naan, jeera rice, dal, malai kofta, and bhajiyas.

"Hi maa! Kaisi ho? Pehla din bohot acha raha...aur 3 nayi ladkiya aayi hai school main...woh mere classes me bhi hai...aur un messe ek ladki...Piya...Woh tho bohot achi hai maa.." Kabir said dreamily.

"Aur usse already pyaar ho gaya maa..."Abhay retorted. Shreya looked at the two boys, amused.

"Kabir ko pyaar ho gaya? Kisse?" Jai walked in with his briefcase, and put it on the table. He started to unbutton the cuffs of his sleeves, and winked at Shreya. He was very good looking too, and charmed everyone that he met. Well, almost everyone.

"Mom, Dad...seriously main keh raha hoon...Is baar, it's for real! Yeh Piya...she's like nobody else. Kitni alag hai. Woh bohot khubsoorat, trusting, bubbly, aur pyaari hai. You'll both love her, I'm sure. Sab log usse pyaar karte hai, sivay apka pyaara beta, mister grumpy." Kabir told them both, while sitting in a chair.

"Kyun beta Abhay? Kya hua? Kuch theek nahin hai, na?" Jai put a hand on Abhay's shoulder comfortingly. Only the three of them knew, except for a few friends, how kind, loving, and passionate Abhay could be. But he always kept his distance in front of humans, because he didn't want to get too close and end up endangering either his family or the human. He was actually the world's best gentleman, but had to act rude to people, to protect himself and others. He really cared about his family, and put their safety above his own love or friends. Kabir was not like that, and was very free. His gift allowed him to control himself while he interacted with girls, and often went out on dates and dances. But seeing Abhay so worried made Jai and Shreya also anxious.

"Dad, woh...Piya ki dil ki baat main nahi sun para hoon. Pata nahin kyun. Aur woh...kehte hue sharam aati hai mujhe...Sorry Dad."

"Arre kis baat ke liye sorry ho, beta?" Jai asked, while Shreya came to Abhay and put her arm around his shoulder. They exchanged worried looks.

"Woh...maine...maine aaj almost control khoya tha. Piya ki khushbhoo bohot strong hai. Uski jaise scent maine aaj tak nahi smell ki. Aur maine kitne logo ki scent smell ki hai. Aap log janthe hai, ke main kabhi nahi control khotha hoon. Lekin aaj, bohot mushkil tha. Aap logo ke baare main socha tho waha se secape karne ka moka diya mere dimaag ne. Aur woh Piya...itni friendly and happy kyun hai. Ussi ke vajay se maine almost apni family ka raaz khol diya. Woh hamesha itni khush thi...aur jab maine usse bura barthav kiya, tab bhi woh mujhse nice thi...kitni bholi hai woh. It's not good for her...phas jaegi...Kabir ' tune usse hamare parivaar mein entry di na, toh main tumhe jaan se marunga. Main uska presence nahi bardaash kar sakta."

"Hmmm...itni si baat pe tum tension le rahe ho, beta?"Shreya smiled at her son. Abhay looked at her, confused.

"Arre, woh toh sabse hota hai...mujhe dhoondna hoga ki uski smell itni attractive kyun hain, aur kyun tum uski baat nahi sun sakthe...lekin yeh control ki baat tho bohot choti si baat hai...tum tho best ho hamare ghar main. Hum sab ne galti ki hai, lekin tumne kabhi nahi ki. You'll be fine, beta. Don't worry" Jai reassured Abhay.

Kabir smiled at Abhay..."Aur dekhna. Piya iss parivaar aur iss ghar me zaroor ayegi."

Abhay growled at Kabir, and lunged at him. They both ran upstairs, Kabir laughing and Abhay snarling.

Shreya looked at Jai, worried. "Are you sure ki yeh normal hai? Abhay ko bohot parishaani ho rahi thi."

Jai just smiled. "Nahi, mujhe nahi pata. Woh mujhe research karna hoga. Lekin sab theek hoga. Kabir tho bohot khush hai...woh usse already yahan leke aana chahta hai." He laughed at his son.

Shreya looked at him. "Woh tho aur ek baat hai. Jab Kabir ne mujhe Piya ki photo dikhai, maine kuch dekha. Woh iss ghar main zaroor ayegi."

"Really? Wow...woh bohot pyaari lag rahi hai. Lekin Abhay ke liye mushkil hoga, na?"

"That's another thing. Maine jo dekha, uss mein teen char cheeze dekhi maine. Aur har baar, Piya aur Kabir nahi, Piya aur Abhay saath main the. Kabir tho kissi aur ke saath tha, woh scenes main..." Shreya mised.

"Baap re...Humare bechare bache...kitni mushkile face karni hogi unhe, kya patha. Aur Piya ko human nahi rakh sakte hum yahan...Kya patha. Hum kitne lucky the na, Shreyu, ke humari love story ithni aasani se hogayi?" He put his arms around Shreya's shoulders and smiled at her, bending down to look in her face. Shreya smiled at him, and put her arms around him, and hugged him tightly. "Haan, hum bohot lucky the. Hopefully hamare boys ko bhi ek perfect love story mil jayegi." They both smiled at each other, and hugged again, as they looked out the huge glass doors, facing the woods.

Part 4

The next morning, Jai talked to Abhay before Abhay and Kabir went to school.

Jai "I know that you are worried about Piya, but just make sure you are not overly rude to her, ok? At least for your brother's sake? You know how he is..."

Abhay "Yes, papa. I will try. But its so hard for me, when my powers are not working on her...it makes me uneasy, since this is a feeling I have never had before. It's very uncomfortable."

Jai walked to him and put his arm around Abhay's shoulder. "I know. But you know Kabir feels really strongly about this girl. I could read his emotions last night. He feels stronger for this girl than he ever has, since...you know who left."

"Really? It's that bad? He already loves this girl that much?" Abhay was astonished.

"Well, he can't help it. You know, pehli nazar mein pyar...Aur waise bhi, if he had the choice, he would stay away from her. You know he doesn't like to get too close to any girl, except for flirting around, after what happened with Natasha..." Jai smiled at Abhay.

"Abhay yaar chalo! We're getting late" Kabir's voice could be heard from the garage.

"Alright dad. Agar aap kehrahe tho...just for Kabir." Abhay smiled at his dad and walked out.

At school –

"Hmmm...I wonder if Abhay will still be mad at me today.." Pia wondered.

"OMG Pia...Why are you thinking about that khadoos when you have someone else waiting for you? You know Kabir-" Misha was saying before she got interrupted.

"Misha! Don't start again. Maine bohot sun liya kal raat ko. So don't start again." Piya was so frustrated. Her sisters had been bugging her since they left school last night, and were still not done! She liked Kabir, but didn't like that Abhay was so mean, since she herself was a very friendly person, and was friends with everyone in her old school.

"Piya sweety, teri love story dekh kar mujhe Danish ki bohot yaad arahi hai...I love him so much!! I can't wait for school to be over. Phir humari shaadi hogi. Ussne aur Papa ne faisla kiya tha, remember? Ki as soon as schooling is done, shaadi ki baarat ayegi!" Panchi remembered.

"ohhh God! Please birdy didi! Tum subha subha kyun uss idiot ka naam lethi ho?" Misha was annoyed.

"Misha di! Kyun tum Panchi di ko annoy karthi ho? Danish jiju ko idiot mat kehna! It's rude." Piya scolded her elder sister.

"Ya ya, Miss Goody Two Shoes. Is liye tho tu papa ki chamchi hai." Misha yawned as they walked to their class.

Suddenly, someone pulled Piya back. As she stumbled, Kabir caught her in his arms. He winked at her, and said "Good morning Piya! How was your night? Mere bare main sapna dekha na tumne?"

Piya blushed, and thought "What? Isse kaise pata? How would he know? Nahi nahi...bas aise hi kehraha hoga..." She cleared her throat. "Umm Kabir please chodo mujhe."

Abhay just stood behind Kabir, as a passive observer. "Agar tum dono ka flirting khatam ho gaya ho, tho please class chalein?"

Kabir smiled at Abhay, and pulled Piya to her feet, keeping his arm around her waist. They walked to class together. Kabir pulled Piya ahead to talk, while Misha and Panchi walked behind them, keeping an eye on Kabir. Abhay just shook his head, and followed the 4 of them, last.

When they got to their class, Kabir sat next to Piya before anyone else could. Abhay just sat next to Kabir. The teacher announced that they were going to have projects about love. They would have to enact a scene from a specific play or movie. The teacher announced partners, and put Kabir with Piya.

"Yesss...I'm with Piya!!! Ab romantic film ka scene? Hmmm this should be interesting. I wonder why I feel this way for Piya. I haven't felt like this since Natasha..." Kabir thought to himself happily.

"Oh my god. Mujhe Kabir mil gaya? Aur romantic scene? Wow...I'm kind of excited. Chup kar Piya. Yeh kya keh rahi hai tu? Kahin tujhe actually pyaar to nahi? No! Just shut up." Piya sat next to Kabir, thinking.

Now the dilemma was that Abhay didn't have a partner, since there was one more boy than there was girl. The teacher thought for a while, and decided. She called Piya to the front of the room. "Piya beta? I was wondering if you could do a double project and be Abhay's partner also. There are not enough girls in the class so...he is all alone. I chose you because I know your amazing academic record, and you are a scholarship student. If you don't mind...I will give you extra marks."

Piya thought for a while, because of her complex relationship with Abhay. But she wanted to help the teacher, and she could always use extra marks. Besides, how hard could this get? "Alright, I'll do it."

The teacher was overjoyed, and she told Abhay who his partner was. He was annoyed with his fate for a minute, then remembered what Jai had told him that morning. He decided to let it go.

"So for you, Piya and Kabir, the assigned scene is the gazebo scene from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Is that alright?" Kabir almost jumped up with joy. "Of course ma'am! No problem! Aap jo bhi kahengi, hum wahi karenge!" Piya blushed, but was also pleased.

"And for Abhay and Piya...you will do the scene from Romeo and Juliet – the balcony scene. OK?"

"Ok. Thanks ma'am." Abhay said curtly and walked away. "Romeo and Juliet tho mere favorite hai! Lekin yeh scene...aur woh bhi Abhay ke saath...dekhte hai kya hota hai" thought Piya.

Kabir, Piya, and Misha started to walk outside together when somebody wanted to ask Kabir for help. So he told them to start walking ahead, and he would catch up. Panchi caught up with them, and Misha informed her of what was going on.

"Wow Piyu, teri kismat to dekh! Tujhe two hot ladke mile hai partners ke liye!" Panchi said, smiling.

"Aur meri kismat dekho! Mujhe romantic scene karna padraha hai!!!!! What rubbish yaar. Yeh teacher bhi na...aisi project kaun deta hai?! Aur woh bhi, uss loser geek ki saath!!! Kya life hai meri!" Misha complained. Panchi and Piya both laughed, and Panchi mussled the top of Misha's hair. Kabir caught up to them and put his arm around Piya's waist. "Kya baate ho rahi hai behno main? Meri baat chal rahi hai na?" Piya laughed and softly hit Kabir's arm. "You wish ki hum hamesha tumhare baare main baat kare!"

Kabir just smiled at Piya and came closer to her face. "Yeah, I do wish. Well, actually I wish ki sirf tum hamesha mere bare main soche..." Piya blushed and looked down. Kabir smiled and moved away from her. Abhay stood away from them, watching them and shaking his head.

"Dad, I can't do it. Main uske karib nahi ja saktha. Mujhe bohot ajeeb lakta hai. I am sorry Dad...but I am afraid yeh mujhse nahi hoga." Abhay told Jai on the phone.

"Its ok beta. Just koshish karna ki tum bohot rude mat behave karna. The rest is ok, I know you atleast tried. So just come home soon, ok? Tumhari maa tum dono ko bohot miss kar rahi hai." Jai said. Abhay smiled and hung up the phone. How was he going to do this? Romeo and Juliet were his favorite, but this was going to be hard...

At Piya's home –

Piya climbed up the stairs and put her bag on the floor. She rubbed her neck and thought about her day. Kabir was turning out to be really funny and sweet. She really liked him, and it seems like Kabir likes her too. "I wonder if he is really "the one"...This project should be fun to do with him. I wonder kaisa lagega when we are close together..." Piya blushed at the thought of it. She sat down on the bed and started dreaming about how the scene between her and Kabir would seem. Suddenly Misha burst into the room. "Piya. Piya? PIYA!!!!!"

"Huh? Kya hua? Is everyone ok?" Piya woke up from her daydream.

Misha was holding the phone in one hand. She covered the mouthpiece and whispered "Already Kabir ke sapne dekh rahi ho? Well, usse 100 years. Uska phone aya hai, tere liye!"

Piya blinked at her, surprised. "What? Lekin woh ghar ke phone pe kyun karega? Mere mobile number hai uske paas!"

Misha smiled at her..."Kyunki woh...le. Usse pooch le!" She threw it to Piya, then sat down next to her to listen to their conversation. Piya narrowed her eyes at Misha, who snarled at Piya. "Fine, I'm going!" Misha sadly walked out of the room. Piya closed the door after her, so she couldn't come in again, and then sat down on her bed.

"Hello, Kabir?"

"Hey Piya! Kya kar rahi ho?" Kabir's happy voice made Piya smile.

"Kuch nahi Kabir. Tum mujhe batao tumne phone kyun kiya. Aur woh bhi, ghar ke phone pe."

"Woh main tumse poochna chathatha if you wanted to go out for dinner today. And maine ghar ke phone pe kiya, because I wanted to ask your dad's permission. Main bohot sharif ladka hoon, you know!"

Piya jumped up from her bed, shocked but excited. "Dinner? Aaj? Kyun?"

"Well Piya, normal people go to dinner because they are hungry and want to eat." Kabir teased.

Piya rolled her eyes. "I know that Kabir. Par aaj rath, akele?"

"Piya, custom yehi hai, that if you like someone, you take them out to dinner. It's called a date."

"KABIR! I know that...lekin tum mujhe date par...?"

"Piya. You know what it means. Just quickly mujhe ha ya na batao. Your dad gave permission. He said that he found out already that I am a very good boy, which I am. Aur waise bhi, its Friday!!! Please? Kal school bhi nahi hai!"

"Ok Kabir. I'll come –"

"Yes!!!!!!!!!!! Ok great. Tum 8 oclock thak thayar ho jana. I'll pick you up! Bye" Kabir hung up.

Piya stared at the phone, and started to smile. Her first date – she was sooo excited! She opened the door, where she knew Misha would be waiting. She smiled at Misha and blushed. Misha started to jump up and down with excitement...her little sister was going on her first date!!!
