Sunaina  Chandi🌸                                                                                                                                                                     I feel the urge to turn back as we walk away from Rohan but Shanaya's presence re wakes me to my senses. We walk away, and for some reason, I feel like crying. I've left him like everyone  else in his life. "You okay?" Shanaya says, a concerned look on her face. I nod and we continue walking. Class is studious and boring and it seems to go on forever. I leave quickly, leaving Shanaya to walk with Shruthi. I walk back to the locker bay, grabbing my books for next period. " Sunaina, I was looking for you!" Jai says, ruffling his hair.  " Why? Something up?" I say, my head buried in my locker. " I was wondering if you'd go to the prom with me, cause it's part of the Student of the Year competition" he says.  From the corner of my eye,I see Rohan glaring at Jai . I smile " Sure".  He smiles the smile that I've pretended to love for so long. It makes me guilty that I'm using him as a distraction to get over Rohan. Again.

Abhimanyu Singh🔱                                                                                                                                                                  I walk into Rohan this morning.  " Dosti karne Ki galti kardi, ab dushmani karne Ka mauka Nani choroonga. Student of  The Year Competition main jeetooga. Tumhare sane tumhari  naak ke neeche cheenlooga. ( Translation - I made the mistake of being friends with you, I won't let the chance of enemity slip away. I'm going to win the Studentof the Year competition . I'll steal your dreams from right under your nose)" He says, nostrils flaring.  I walk past him, pushing my shoulder  against  his. His crowd of supporters surround him as he walks off. My mind wonders to Shanaya again.  I haven't seen her all day and I feel the need to talk to her. It's my fault he broke up with her. It's all my fault. She probably hates me. 

Shanaya Singhania❤️                                                                                                                                                   "That's Shanaya. She's the girl who cheated on Rohan Nanda" mummers like these fill the hall as I walk through. Shruthi glances at me, but I'm determined to look ahead until I'm out of the hallway. " Dorms?" I say, looking at Shruthi. She nods, so we advance to her dorm, dropping our books into our lockers on the way.  " So who are you going to prom with? Rohan or Abhi?" Shruthi says,her tone teasing. I glare at her " Not funny. The whole school is gossiping about me!!" I say, my emotions erupting from inside me. " school Ko  chod, apne feelings ke bare me bat kar( translation - forget the school, talk about your feelings) " She says, her arm resting on my shoulder. I sigh. " Sochna nahi chahti hoon in dono ke bare main ( Translation- I don't even want to think about them)!"I mutter.      " Pyaar  karti hain tu Abhimnayu Se! ( Translation - You're in love with Abhimanyu!)" Shruthi says, firmly.  I look up at her. It seems true, but I don't wanna believe it. " Shruthi Rohan aur main ( Translation- Shruthi, Rohan and I were)" I begin. " Rohan aur tu kya Shanaya! Kuch nahi hain waha. Tumhari jodi Rab nahi, ameero Ki club Ne banai hain. ( Translation- Rohan and you what Shanaya! Your couple wasn't made by God, it was made by the rich guys club)." Look, you're confused and you're allowed to be. Take some time, your heart will tell you the answer" Shruthi says calmly. I sigh. " But  in between, this competition is just not working" I exclaim. She scrunches her face up, " Tho chod de na( translation- then leave it ). I mean, is the competition more important than your feelings? Nahi na? ( no yeah?)"  I look at her for a moment. " Yeah, you're right. I won't participate in the dance competition. If I get disqualified then so be it. What do you think?" I say, looking at her. She smiles, " Main tumhari jhaga hothi tho yahi karti( Translation- If I was in your place I'd do the same) Now give me a hug!" . Shruthi puts her arms out and hugs me, a little to tightly for my liking. Something is up. As I walk to my dorm I spot Jeet around the corner. " Jeet!" I say. He turns around and smiles. " Shanaya?" He asks. " Would you like to go to prom with me? As friends of course" I say with a forced smile. He grins, " Sure" .  Shruthi walks into my dorm twenty minutes later, fuming. " You're going to prom with Jeet? Are you serious?!" She yells. " Yeah" I shrug. "You should be happy for me,I don't understand your reaction" I add. " What to do you mean?" She utters, really quickly. I put down the dress I'm holding. " You know exactly what I mean! You want me to drop out of the competition so you have better chances to win! Let's face it, you and dance , is like me and poor " I snarl at her. " You disgust me. I don't wanna talk to you!" Shruthi yells. She turns around and when she's just about to leave, I tap her shoulder and say " Main tumhari jhaga hothi tho yahi karti". She scowls and walks away. 

Shruthi Pathak⚽️                                                                                                                                                                        I storm out  of Shanaya's room, frustrated that my attempt to get her to drop out failed. I begin to lose hope when I see Abhimanyu playing basketball all by himself. I act really angry, muttering to myself as I go. " Shruthi are you okay?" He asks,the basketball thudding to a stop. " No, I've just fought with . She's such a drama queen I'm so sick of it!" I say,angrily. " What happened?" Abhimanyu asks, genuinely concerned. " She says she's confused between you and Rohan,but she's going to prom with Jeet so Rohan becomes jealous, so where's the confusion!" I say,slyly. Abhimanyu punches the basketball in his hands and looks away from me. It's obvious that he's in love  with Shanaya. All I have to is mention her name and I've got his full attention. " Anyway I don't want to get involved in this. I'll speak to you later" I say. I walk away, fingers crossed that he'll ask. 1.....2......3......4...... " Shruthi who are you going to prom with?" Abhimanyu says. " No one" I say, shrugging. " I guess you're coming with me" he says ,returning to his solitary game of basketball, not even looking at me.
