Part 76
Sany sat glumly on a ledge outside the hall. She seemed shocked as well as confused. Did she judge ashi wrongly? Would yuvi be happy with ashi? Was she good enough for him?
But one thing she was sure of right now. She wouldn't interfere in her brothers life now. Whatever ashi was, good, bad, selfish, whatever.. she did make her brother feel for her now. So now, she would let yuvi choose whats the best for him. But if anything went out of hand, she would side her own.
She was amused at the change love can make. Could love touch her this differently too? Yuvi would do anything in his hands to get his love back. Would the one written in her destiny love her this much too?
A hand suddenly came right in front of her and snapped. She was taken aback and looked up to see the same brown eyes she'd been thinking about. She was red uptill her earr but maintained her calm.
"kabeer? What wind blew you here! I wish my surroundings were parasite free."
Kabeer (looking back at sheetal and sid and nodding his head saying a NO)- "shift"
Sany- "what?"
Kabeer (hitting her butt slightly)- "shift!!"
Sany twitched her lips and moved, making some space for him to sit.
Kabeer- "so.. what are we doing next?"
Sany looked at him as if he spoke german.
Kabeer- "what? Yuvi.. ashi.. remember?"
Sany- "you were the one who backed out like a loser right?"
Kabeer- "well.. I don't leave any thing undone. Moreover I don't leave my partner in the middle of something, especially if shes this beautiful"
Kabeer leaned towards her as she felt her heart skip alternate beats. Or more maybe, she thought. She gulped as he came nearer and could feel his breath on his face. He smelt of pepper and chocolate. Weird combination she thought. Kabeer leaned towards her ears and said softly, "i.. I don't mind helping you keep them away from each other.
Sany jumped out as he bubble burst. She could hear his smirk. She gritted her teeth and snapped back at him.
"I don't need your help! Moreover, let him do wht he wants, they are not kids anymore.. they are grown ups you see!"
"isn't this what ive been trying to explain you day in and day out? But I forgot that this thick brain of yours would never understand what Id say.."
"thick brained??? You called me thick brained??" she grunted
"yeah.. I did, but after I called you beautiful!"
Sany felt her cheeks going red every time he called her that.
"yeah.. but.."
"..but you only react to -what you want to react to.."
God!! This boy was making her go more crazy, she thought. All that drama in yuvi's room and then this. She looked into his eyes, shook her head and sighed.
"kuch nahi ho sakta tumhara!" she muttered as she lay her head on his shoulders, encircling her arms around his.
She was not the one who thought hundred times before doing or saying something. She always believed in the present, and did what she felt like. But she would never let her guard down in front of him. And for that matter, she would never trust him with her emotions. Never.
The next morning yuvi had been quite excited. He had been thinking for quite some while now. He sort of knew what could help him get ashi back.
History had to repeat. He had to remind ashi, how they fell in love. How they learnt to trust each other. And what made them grow more fond of each other.
He knew he had to create such events.. and he knew that his friends would help him. But this might take time.. considering how long it took for both of them to confront each other in school.
"nevermind" he said to himself, "I have all the time in this world!"
"lost in jungle.. check!"
"next.. next was.. haan.. the masquerade ball!"
He picked up his phone and quickly made a call.
"yeah! Haan yuvi! Am in for it! Don't worry! Ill take care of the dance. The party will be held like it was before. … yeah yuvi! Haan haan! Masks ready hoge! Chill!" tia kept the phone and jumped back into ranveers arms.
She tells him the plan and he is all ready to help his mate. This did seem like a decent plan to him. Atleast they wont be hiding stuff from ashi. And wont be lying to her either. She would realize things on her own. But he also knew wht he had to do next.. message sheetal the plan. He trusted sheetal more with the plan. And moreover, he wanted tia's attention to himself at the moment.

Shells closed her ears as she entered the hall. Everyone was busy talking about something, or mostly- fighting..
She clapped her hands and stood on the table.
"LISTEN!! QUIET EVERYONE! Okay.. so guys! Thanks a lot for not being there with me on my birthday. I am sure, you guys enjoyed being with each other instead of this kid. But.. but I do want my party, and you guys want to remain with each other..so.. so I have planned a masquerade ball in the night. As my rules go- you all need to come with one date. Now that should be easy for you all right?"
Ashi turned her gaze towards yuvi and found him staring at her. She quickly turned her face and went to kabeer. Kabeer looked at her and shrugged. Sany had already asked him to be her date.
Next she looked at ranveer, who smiled back pointing towards tia. Tia too held his arms possessively.
She went back to sid.
Sid was delighted that he didn't have to take the pain of going and looking for a date this time. He grinned back at her and nodded until vrinda came by and kissed him on his cheek, asking him out.
Ashi rolled her eyes, as vrinda winked back at yuvi.
Had ashi given a option, she would have gone and dug herself in a grave, instead of going for sheetals party.
She finally had to go to yuvi.
Yuvi smirked as she came by him.
"yuvi.. would you.."
"I would love to!" he held her waist and took her to a corner, "but look at sheetal. The party is for her.. we missed it, we ruined it for her, and she herself doesn't hae a date. So I guess, ill ask her to go with me. Only if you don't mind."
"why.. why would I mind? Yeah do that" she stammered "ill ask papa to come with me then"
She sighed deeply and walked towards sumeet. "ye kya ho raha hai? Ab in jaise losers bhi mujhe mana kar rahe hai?" she grunted.
"mamma! " she squeaked
"kya hua shona?"
"mamma, do you mind taking someone else instead of papa for the ball? Am taking him with me.."
"sure mamam! But he'd go for the ball only if he knew how to dance. Hes growing old you see." She hid her laughter.
"rubbish! I am coming with you ashi! And we shall see on the floor who's getting old!" he gritted his teeth and left pulling ashi away.
soniya smiled at this and looked at yuvi, who smiled back.
