Chapter 1

"Good morning students." The teacher greeted.

"Good morning madam!" They wished in the typical sing-along tone.

"Students. I have an announcement to make. We need a new class representative... The earlier representative has not been attending lectures regularly. Hence on the instructions by our vice principal, your class needs a new representative. So who is ready for this role?"

The teacher waited for any of the students to raise their hand. But none did. They all just sat quietly looking at the teacher.

"Come on students. Anyone?... Oh and I should also inform you that the student should have regularly attended lectures till now and should have a good rapport with the teachers."

"Well in that case ma'am there is only one girl. DIYA." A student said.

Diya.. Diya.. Diya... Everyone shouted.

"No." Diya shook her head. "Not me... Someone else please."

Diya.. Diya.. Diya...

"Diya... come on." Another voice came from behind.

Diya turned and glared at her friend who was seated at the bench behind her.

"Class." The teacher yelled. "Be quiet... Is there anyone else who would like to be the class representative?"

Diya.. Diya.. Everyone shouted again.

"Diya?" The teacher asked. "Are you ready to be the class representative?"

"Umm... Actually ma'am..."

"Yes Diya?"

The shouting continued.

She let out a sigh before agreeing. "Okay ma'am. I will be the class representative."

"Please come forward to my desk Diya. I need to note down a few details."

Half an hour later the bell rang. Diya packed her books and pen in her bag before hurrying out of the classroom.

"Diya... Wait..."

Diya ignored her friend and continued walking fast.

"Diya..." The girl matched Diya's pace.

"Don't talk to me Khushi... Go away."

"But what have I done?"

"You were shouting my name in there. You very well knew I was the least interested person to become the class representative."

"I was just shouting your name for fun. But why did you agree?"

"Out of embarrassment... Everyone was shouting my name once again to mention including you. The teacher was just staring at me. I had to agree."

Khushi Mehra.
Diya had known Khushi right from the beginning of the college. Khushi had stood right behind Diya in the line for admission. Both were seeking admission for the three years bachelor's degree course in business administration. Their chat started from the point where Khushi borrowed a blue pen from Diya.

They once again met on the day of orientation, after which they had shared a snack at a nearby cafe. On the first day of college, when Diya entered the classroom and glanced around she found Khushi seated alone. After confirming that no-one was sitting beside her, Diya occupied the seat. Diya and Khushi have been sitting together for almost every lecture and have been best friends since.

"Had to agree to what?" A boy joined them from behind.

Diya let out a sigh before saying. "I am the new CR of my class."

"What's a CR?"

"Class representative." Both Khushi and Diya said at once.

"Jinx." Khushi laughed.

"So Miss CR, how..."

"Aayush, don't call me that."

Aayush Sharma.
A few weeks into the college was when Aayush became Khushi and Diya's friend.

During one of the lectures Khushi and Diya were seated behind Aayush. He was peeling off the golden wrapper off the chocolate under the desk. Apparently he wasn't discreet enough to break a square piece and put it in his mouth.

"Aayush?" The teacher called out. "Why are you looking under the desk? Are you hiding something? Are you using your mobile?"

"No... No ma'am." He stuttered.

"What is it?" The teacher walked towards Aayush 's desk.

In a hurry he tried to shove the remaining chocolate behind. Khushi caught hold of it and quickly hid it in her pencil pouch.

The teacher found nothing on checking and walked back to the front after giving him a warning.

At the end of the lecture Aayush lost his chocolate but in exchange befriended the two girls. They had exited the classroom laughing.

"Come on let's go to the canteen. I'm hungry," Khushi said linking her hand with Diya.

"Me too."

"Me three." Aayush said and followed the two girls.

The three of entered the crowded cafeteria and joined the line to get their food. Once they had their trays, they then headed to their regular table where a guy was already seated.

"Hey sexy!"

"Hey handsome!" Diya smiled at the guy and sat on the chair beside him.

"If we didn't know you two well we would assume you two were dating." Khushi placed her tray on the table and took another chair.

"Who wouldn't want to date this pretty lady?" The guy said looking at Diya with a smile.

"Okay. What do you want?" Diya asked.

"What do I want?... Huh?..." He scoffed.

"Speak up."

"Have you done Mrs Shah's homework?"

"I knew it." Diya opened her bag and took out a book. Keeping her bag down again she held forward the book. But before he could take it she pulled back the book out if his reach.

"Diya?"

"First promise me a gelato."

"Tonight itself."

"Remember your promise," she said as she handed over the book.

"Thanks." He quickly took out his pen and notebook. He flipped open the pages before quickly copying down the homework.

"Next time don't use flattery. Just ask Mayank."

Mayank Gupta.
A guy with the typical boy next door attitude. A person who knew all, mingled with all and got along with all. He could converse with anyone and no-one had any issues talking to him. He befriended Diya first. They shared some notes on economics, then mobile numbers and then chats. They were part of their own separate groups. But slowly their friendship deepened. Also Diya introduced him to Khushi and Aayush. After which Mayank too started to hang out with them.

A while later after their lunch the warning bell rang.

"So meet you all later? Directly at the ice-cream parlor?" Aayush confirmed.

"Yes. Come Mayank. We can't be late for French... See ya later Khushi."

Diya picked up her half empty bottle of juice in one hand and her haversack in the other. She and Mayank started walking towards the exit. Little did she know that before exiting the cafeteria itself her life was going to change.
