Rohan Nanda✌🏾️

" This can't be because of Shanaya, you didn't even love her! " Abhimanyu yells, his arms weighing mine down.  I push him off me in anger. " You lost on purpose that day! On purpose!" I yell. I take a deep breath. " For four years this thought has been eating away at me. Why did you do it?!" I demand. " Because your dad was an asshole. He was getting happy seeing you lose. I wanted to be like him but even I'm not that evil. I thought I could make India's biggest man lose by making you win, so I did" he confesses. I snort. " I didn't your act of greatness. I ruined my dad when I left home!" . " If that's the case then why did you give that big ol' speech. You just wanted to show your Dad that you won saale!"  He exclaims. I punch him, and I get one in return. " Why do whack in the face so hard!" I yell, frustrated. I wipe dome blood off my face. " Bloody loser" Abhimanyu mutters, adjusting his wedding ring. I tap his shoulder. " Hey loser kisko bola?! (Translation: who'd you call a loser?!)" I ask. " All of my albums are platinum hits!" I boast. " So what, I'm a stock market hit!" Abhi scoffs. " So what?! Top music industrialists follow me around!" I exclaim. " So, top labourers ask me for donations!" He yells, flipping his arms in the air. " Maine sau larkiyo ke saath!" I begin. " Aur mene (translation : And I've)" he begins. He looks at me, doubtfully. " Sau(100), really?" He asks. I shrug, " Dus upad neeche( translation: 10 up or down)" I say. " Upad ya neeche?(up or down?)" he questions. I blink. " Mostly neeche" I admit. Abhi laughs. " Saale tu nahi badla (translation:  you haven't changed). Wahi ch oo Ki mathra, th ee Ki mathra y-" he begins. " Y aa Ki matra yaad hain mujhe ( I remember)" I say. Abhi and I bro-hug and I forget all our previous fights. It's all in the past now.

** An hour later**

" I can't believe he's gone" I say to Abhi as he passes me a cigarette. He nods in agreement. None one thought the Dean would actually, well you know, die. " And I also can't believe you haven't apologised." I add, slyly. He looks up at me, puzzled. " Apologise? To who?" He asks. " Saale. Go apologise to Shanaya. I think she's a little hurt you know" I say, knowingly.  He gets up and walks over to her and I sit by myself for a while.  I wonder how Sunaina is right now.

Abhimanyu Singh🔱

I walk over to where Shanaya is sitting, waiting for Shruthi. I tap her shoulder and her head flies around hits mine. " Ow" I exclaim. She giggles- that's a good sign. " Shanaya I'm sorry I shouldn't have yelled at you its just-" I begin. She places a finger on my lip. " Sshh! Can't you see I'm skyping Sunaina?!" She exclaims. " Oh my god he's so cute Shanaya!" Sunaina screeches through the tablet. Her belly is swollen and she's eating a jar of Nutella. She gestures for Shanaya to talk to me. Shanaya gets up and leaves the tablet with Shruthi. " Abhi, don't apologise, we were both really nervous about today. I understand" she replies taking my hand. I place my hand on her cheek. " Tum itni bhi stupid nahi ho" I grin. " Patha hain (translation: I know)" She replies. " Go, Rohan's waiting for you. Go" she adds pushing me away. I lean down and kiss her cheek before walking away."Bye Mrs Singh" I call. " Bye Mr Singh" she says, grinning.

Rohan and I even up on the oval and loosen our respective ties. "Ch oo th ee Ki mathra y aa ki mathra bhaag!!!" We chorus, speeding off into the horizon. There are some friends who understand you like parents, love you like brothers and care for you like no other. I'm not breaking this friendship, because it's we've both learned to treasure.

Author's Note

OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS THIS BOOK IS OVER !!!! There are so many memories I attach with this book and its going to be hard to  get rid of. Thanks to all of my readers and voters for always being there and giving this story the love I never thought it would receive.  A special mention to those of you who helped me out during my writers block and the little ups and downs. I'll never forget it.😭😭It's been a long journey and I've reached the conclusion that I'm not going to write a sequel, it's just too much at the moment. Thankyou for all the great memories but until next time, 

That's all folks!❤️
