*Classroom*
"Students" Urmila Rajput gazed sternly across the class " an excursion is being arranged for all the juniors.
But don't take it lightly, all of you will be evaluvated during those five days. Miss Vibha, Mr Rishabh and you sports sir will accompany you. Furher details will be provided later." her face went blank on seeing Siyali. She hurried out .
The bell !
Everyone dashed in to the open leaving Siyali and Utkarsh behind.
"Siyali" Utkarsh placed himself before her."Tu meri best hai na. I can't stand it when you'r angry with me.Please Siyali. I don't want to fight with you."
"I'm sorry too Utkarsh. I don't like fighting with you either."
"Siyali tu hi thi aur tu hi ho" he said pulling her into a bear hug.
"Na na naa na na na Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham" Sid poppped his head in to the class. Followed by his trunk and limbs.
Siyali narrowed her eyes at the intruder who dared disturb them.
"Glad I didn't miss the bro-sis reunion" Sidharth pouted leaning himself against the wall.
"Siyali is not my sister"
"Utkarsh is not my brother"
"Chill chicky I already know that" Sid said pacing towards Siyali.
"Sid, stay away from my Siyali" Utkarsh yelled.
"Oh!shoot, will you stop getting in my way frogster" he snapped "I just want my jacket back" he shrugged staring at the ceiling.
"Your jacket?"
"Yes, my jacket. Don't you remember Siyali?Your way more uncute than I thought " he lulled in a husked tone.
And boy! It did bring back a lot of thoughts to Siyali's mind
~Pause~
^Flashback^
She was shivering.
Tears glistening her pale cheeks. She was soaked. He didn't hesitate.
He took off his jacket and wrapped it around her.
Wanting to feel safe she hid her face in his chest. He returned the hug.
^Flashback ends^
"Siyali, what jacket is he talking about?" Utkarsh snapped her out of her thoughts.
"Nothing important Utkarsh" she assured.
"Yeah nothing important" Sidharth mimicked her.
"Chalo Utkarsh, lets go" she took hold of his elbow and walked out..
"By the way Chicky if you want to keep it, I don't mind" Sid said crossing his arms.
She turned back and gave him that stay away or I'll kill you look.
He smirked.
She was about to turn back and smack him when Utkarsh pulled her away.
I have to do something about that Frogster. And that too fast. He thought.
"But why am I so affected" he reflected searching his head. But failing miserable to find a logical solution.

He was leaning agaisnt a shelf engrossing himself in a paperback copy of the Pride and Prejudice when Vibha walked in.
She chose not to trouble him and walked over to opposite shelf. Her eyes hunting the side profiles of the well kept books. She shook her head slowly and turned her gaze to Parth who was remarking her meekly.
"Parth, have you seen Pride and Prejudice, I can't find it here" she mouthed.
He was too freaking lost in her to even notice.
"Parth" she snapped.
"oh yes. Did you need something?" he inquired.
"Have you seen Pride and Prejudice." she stated.
"It's with me" he uttered.
"I see. I just wanted to, never bother, just let me know when your done." She reposted.
"You can have it if you want." He stretched out the book to her.
"Thank you"she shrieked as he handed over the book to her. Carefully that their fingers won't graze hers.
As she turned around she lost her balance and slipped. She closed her eyes in the suspicion of falling. But the floor never came. Instead a strong pair of arms draped around her waist held her up.His breath fanned out to meet hers. They stood there engrossed in each other.
"Parth, are you here" called out Utkarsh causing both of them to pull away.
"Vibha Ma'm, aap bhi idar hai. Oh ! You were both reading" stated Utkarsh noticing the book in Vibha's palm.
"I'm leaving" sighed Vibha as she hastened to the corridor leaving a captivated Parth and puzzled Utkarsh behind.

"Stay away from Utkarsh" screamed Niti as she pounced on Ayaz. She was a pint size, but sure was a helluva dynamite.
"Get off me" cried Ayaz as he succumbed to the floor.
"Niti what are you doing" rushed in Charlie.
"Charlie, get her off me"screeched Ayaz trying to keep his ground.
Charlie scooped up Niti and signalled Ayaz to leave.
"Leave me Charlie, put me down" Niti yelled pounding Charlie on his arms.
"Leave Niti" Utkarsh came running and freed Niti from Charlie's hold.
"You stay out of this" An angry Charlie shoved Utkarsh hard.
"Don't you dare touch my Utkarsh"squalled Niti as she shoved Charlie causing him to tumble back.
With that Niti grabbed Utkarsh and marched away, once again leaving the poor guy behind.
"I'll get that Utkarsh" vowed Charlie.
