Flashback
Aashi POV:
I woke up happily and early...Today is a very special day as it's my first day in college. How beautiful is the early sunrise? The sun is brimming so brightly , i removed the curtains of my room ...warm sunlight entered the room and I looked towards the surroundings. It is so peaceful right now. Birds chirping on the trees, people jogging, some aunty's watering their plants, small cute children going for their school.
I looked at the clock, still there is time...but i should get ready quickly. So from the cupboard I took my clothes and went to take a bath.
I came from the bathroom in a towel , standing in front of the mirror. I applied vanilla body lotion on my legs and my hands...I did a little bit of touchup.
Later I changed to a simple white kurti and blue jeans. I left my hair open. I grabbed my phone and called Maya but she is not answering. Maybe she is busy with her boyfriend. I flipped my phone and went downstairs.
We didn't know who her boyfriend was but she told us that he is our senior and they started dating two years ago before our college admission. We haven't seen his pictures nor we met him in college. They both have been secretly dating since then.
I reached the kitchen thinking of all this.
Mumma is making breakfast. Papa left for his work. I went and sat on a chair.
"You woke up too early today." Mumma said and served the breakfast for me.
"It's my first day of college today, and papa already left for his work...I have to take the bus today"I replied.
"Eat fast then... I have to go to meet your Maasi...she wants to talk about something important...she was sounding worried" mumma said while serving breakfast to herself
I just nodded and finished my breakfast. Mumma and I left , she took the auto as maasi live in south delhi.
I reached the bus stand and waited for the bus...I don't want to get late to college on the first day itself.
Suddenly my phone rang, I looked at the caller id maya is calling me now.
"Where were you? When I called you in the morning" I asked
"Uhh...I am sleeping" she hesitated
"Hell yeah, don't try to act smart. You were talking to your boyfriend and telling me that you are sleeping." I said instantly before she covered up
"Uhh yes...listen to me now, I want to tell you something , some seniors in our college are raging new students. Anaya and I escaped somehow, they are giving us weird tasks. When you come near the college, inform us. Don't tell the seniors in your innocence that you are from the first year. If anybody asks tell them that you are senior" she instructed me and I just nodded
Finally the bus came, it was half empty I took the pink ticket which is for the ladies and sat on the empty seat.
Someone sat near me, but my mind is already somewhere else.
"Excuse me" the boy near me said i looked towards him.
He is handsome no doubt.
He clicked his fingers near me to make me come out of my thoughts.
"Yes". I asked to try to make some space between us.
"Hey, kabir Malhotra...you are in DU first year ...am I right?" He asked.
"Uhh ...no I am not in my first year. I am in my second year in the mba department". I said avoiding eye contact.
"Ohh really... but in your id card it is written Aashi sharma , a chemistry department student" he said holding my id.
I snatched my id from him and yelled at him.
"My id...how could you touch my things. Chori karte hue sharam nahi aati" i said and he literally chuckled
"Easy sweetheart...you id is laying under the seat , I saw it and gave you...and rahi baat sharam ki toh woh mujhe aati hi nahi hai. Aap aur tez chillayi toh bus mein sab utar ke maarege mujhe sochege main aapko tease kr rha hu" He said
I ignored him and looked outside the window. I don't want to create a scene in the bus.
Pata chale agle din reels pe hum hi dikh rahe hai ladte hue. I thought
"Excuse me miss, let me introduce myself properly...I am kabir Malhotra we both are studying in the same college...so don't act so formally. Our destination is the same. The journey will become boring if we don't talk." He said and forwarded his hand for handshake
I gladly took it and smiled a little thinking he was not that bad.
"Aashi sharma...nice to meet you kabir" I replied
We both talked for half an hour till we reached our college. He told me , how his friend left him alone.
And how he ran after his friend in a towel to stop him.
I bid him bye, he went to meet his friend or to take a call.
I tried calling my friends but they are not picking up so I thought to go straight to the class. Suddenly two girls approached me.
"Hey , we are in our first year ...We are scared of raging the seniors are doing can you show as the way to the canteen" a girl named kavya asked
I thought to help them, so i told them the way, i already saw the canteen when I came here two times before my admission process but they didn't understand and wanted me to guide them. I hesitated a bit.
"I am not getting good vibes from them" i thought
"Run away they are planning something" my subconscious mind warned.
"But i should help them na" i thought
"Don't be mad... musibat mein fasne ka shok hai...meri baat maan aur bhag" my subconscious mind said
"Hey? help us ...our friends are waiting there" another girl named rhea said
I ignored my mind and led them the way. We reached the canteen gate and I was about to leave but some boys blocked my way.
"Excuse me... please get aside." I said
"Why so much in a hurry, fresher? Come inside ...introduce yourself to your seniors" one beared boy said to me
"I ...I am not a fresher." I said
I looked towards kavya and rhea for help but they are leaning against the wall laughing at me.
Kavya held my hand , and made me stand with other students.. three are boys and five are girls including me...I was shaking immensely. My face heated up.
I heard and watched on TVs that they give weird tasks to students.
They call two boys in front of them...and make them remove their shirts and dance as a pole dancer.
They are doing horrible dance and all the seniors are laughing at both of them.
Then after them... kavya called two girls and played a song , and asked them to dance.
They both started shaking and said no to kavya...she became furious and gripped their hairs and warned them to dance otherwise they have to give blowjob to their friends.
My eyes widened in shock. I can't believe what I am hearing...i tried to call Anaya and Maya but they are not answering.
Both the girls dance on that vulgar song. They made them stop dancing and called another two girls and told them to kiss each other. Both of them hesitated a bit but they started kissing each other...rhea started recording on her phone. I closed my eyes not wanting to watch
Kavya called me , it's my turn now. My feet are frozen in their place I can't feel my legs now... I can't even run away from here..they already locked the canteen door from inside.
I tried to act brave but it's not working. I know I am not that brave like my friends. I want someone to stop this.
Kavya: "come baby girl...only you left. What task should we give you? Any suggestions guys."
Rhea: "should we make her dance as a pole dancer"
They are discussing , which task they should have to give me.
Boy Senior: "I got it , she is so cute ...look at her figure... damn those curves...I am losing my control just by looking at her. Come here baby, kiss me ...this is your task. Easy one na, give me a passionate kiss. If i like it you and me will have a great time after that if you know what i mean"
"I ...I will not ...I ...I am not going to do a..Anything...let me go from here." I stammered
Kavya: "Let you go... How can you say no to us bitch...come here like an obedient slut and kiss him"
My eyes welled with tears. They are calling me names. I backed off and closed my eyes.
"It's my last chance , i have to run away before they do something with me." I thought
That boy started coming near me. It's my one and only chance. I pushed him.and ran away and opened the door but bumped to someone.
I looked towards him in panic , kabir ...I am literally shaking , and crying. He held me by the shoulder and made me stand properly.
I can see frustration and anger on his face.
Kabir: "Aashi ...what happened? Why are you crying and what are you doing here? First, Calm down and then tell me"
He wiped my tears..Before I say something to him. Kavya intertwined in between.
Kavya: "Nothing kabir...it's just that we all are just having a little fun with our juniors. Come join us...she has a task to complete , bring her here."
I shook my head to kabir. He held my shoulders tightly and made me stand behind him.
Kabir: "care to tell me kavya.. What was the task you gave to her?"
Kavya: "The task is to kiss him passionately and if he likes it he will take her wherever he wants"
Kavya told him the task they gave me.
I can clearly see heat radiating from Kabir's body. He held his guy friend's collar and punched him.
Kabir: "How dare you say something like that to her? Stop this nonsense raging and get out of here all of you."
Everybody left us...I flinched with his words and backed off. Kabir stopped me , made me sit on the chair and gave me water and a handkerchief.
Kabir: "i...I am sorry Aashi....they didn't harm you in any other way na? i don't know what to say...are you ok?"
He asked me but I didn't utter a word in front of him. I am just looking at my hands.
Kabir: "say something...if you do not say how can I punish them."
"Punish them... but why? I don't want you to do anything like that...why do you want to do something like this for me?" I asked
Kabir: "I don't know...I just want to make them realise their mistake. Nobody is allowed to treat you like that."
"I think I should go....thank you for helping me, i yelled at you on the bus but still you helped me. It means a lot" I said and about to go when he stopped me
Kabir: "Wait...I want to know one thing...in the bus you yelled at me and said you will shout and gather people without knowing how I know your name....and here you know what they are up to...but you didn't yell nor you tried to protest."
He said and I am out of words. I don't know what to say ,so I kept quiet.
Kabir: "I don't know why you remain quiet but i want to tell you this...I will not let anyone harm you. Let's not discuss it,.give me your phone i will save my number...if they trouble you again, inform me"
He said with a smile and I nodded. He saved his number on my phone.
We were about to go when Maya entered the canteen with a boy. She looked as surprised as us.
Maya: "Aashi..you are here? Who is this guy?"
" Maya, You tell me first...who is he? And what are you doing with him.. woh bhi haath mei haath daale. Is he your boyfriend?"
I asked the question and Maya looked nervous avoiding eye contact.
Kabir and I are waiting for them to spill the beans.
Kabir: "Dude tell us , how do you both know each other? Are we missing something?"
Ohh so he is Kabir's Friend.
Maya: "I will tell you , uhh ...me...I mean Aryan and i ...we both have been dating each other for two years."
My eyes widened with shock. Ohh now. I understood , why we see him always roaming around near our department.
I looked towards kabir...I thought he was also in shock...but damn he is angry.
Kabir: "WHAT THE HELL MAN? Now I understood why you left me today and went alone. But i am happy for you ...can I call you bhabhi?"
He said to Maya and she blushed, just by hearing bhabhi from kabir. I hugged maya ...I am so happy for her i forgot my own pain, which I suffered
Maya: "Aashi you called us? Anaya and me... actually Anaya went back to her home ...her mother had some urgent work...I don't think she was looking upset at that time. Everything alright?
Kabir: "I will tell you, actually..."
I stopped kabir, not wanting to ruin their special moment, so I gave an excuse to her.
"Let's go Maya...or do you want to stay here only?" I teased her and they both blushed.
Aryan: "By the way...how did you both know each other?"
Kabir: "It's a long story i will tell late....let's catch up some other day...ok girls?"
We all agreed with him and left for our respective department. I don't want to tell my friends about this day. It is better if I deal with my problems by myself.

Kabir POV:
I woke up too late Today...it's the first day of new college students. Full of raging students giving them the weirdest task.
I moved my hand towards my phone and looked at the time.
I sat on the bed removing the blanket and called Aryan from the other side of the room.
Why the hell is he not replying? I came out of the room in shorts and went to his room...I barged into the room without knocking.
He started shouting at me. But wait a minute..he is talking to someone early in the morning.
"When did you wake up?" I asked
Aryan: "WHAT THE HELL KABIR...at least knock on the door before coming...what if i am doing some important work."
"Important work? Enlighten me." I asked sitting comfortably on the bed.
Aryan: "Why should I tell you? Just knock before coming."
"No, if it's not important then i will not knock in the future also...now i got it, hell man are you satisfying your virgin dick. Eww man" I said and made a disgusted face looking towards him
Aryan: "Are you high kabir? Shut the fuck up...if i am satisfying myself or not, that's not your concern. Why are you here?"
"Uhh I forgot... Leave it, I will get ready quickly then we both will go to college." I said and left
I was in the shower, when I closed my eyes. Suddenly a face came in my mind,...I remembered, when I saw that pretty girl in the principal's office when the first year admission went on.
There is something in her eyes , they are so attractive.
Did she take admission in our college or not? I thought.
I got out of the shower in a towel , so I called Aryan from the other side of the room.
When I hear the start of the car engine. I got out of the room to see.
"WHAT THE HELL! ARYAN WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING LEAVING ME HERE?" i yelled and went downstairs.
Aryan: "College...you are taking so much time so i thought I should leave early."
"What the hell man...we are supposed to leave together...if you went alone in the car, how will I come?" I snapped back trying to open the car door.
Aryan: "Try coming in the bus this time... I will wait for you in college. And man at least wear something ...everyone is looking at you only, just to stop me you came in a towel."
He said and i looked down. I am just in towel. Even without slippers.
Do hell with slippers I am practically naked, just in a towel. I clenched my towel tightly not wanting it to slip from my hand.
Aryan is laughing seeing me and took photos from his phone and here I am giving him death glare.
"Don't laugh at me you motherfucker and delete the photo...it's all happening because of you. I will not spare you. Come outside of the car."
Aryan: "Do I look like a fool to you? This is an out of the world scene. I will send this picture to Aditya also."
"Don't you dare... he will not let me live in peace if he see it."
Aryan: "That will be fun man... now bye I am getting late"
Before I say something he leaves me alone. I looked towards the surrounding almost every person in this fucking neighbourhood seeing me just in towel.
Aunty: "Tenu sharam nahi aati hai kya? Aise ghum raha hai"
Wow...this was the only thing missing now. I have to deal with them seriously.
"Aunty ji...sharam toh bahut aa rahi hai...par kya kre...acha woh piche aapke aapki hi beti hai na Jo chupke se mujhe ghoor-ghoor ke dekh rahi hai...woh bhi aise...haww" I said pointing towards her daughter and aunty frowned.
They left and i took a sigh.
I will not leave you Aryan meet me in college you fucker.
When I was going to my apartment a kid named Aarav came near me scanning me head to toe.
"What?" I asked
Aarav: "New fashion? Why are you roaming in a towel? Doesn't your mom scold you?"
What the hell now this kid is questioning me. I thought
"I was running towards my friend... He left me here alone. So I forgot that I was wearing just a towel. Understand? ...Wow...beta teri hi kami thi ...And we were all born like that naked so stop asking these questions" I said and looked towards him
He started laughing. Wow now kids are also laughing at me.
Aarav: "Aap nangu-pungu ho abhi... Main aapka towel khich ke bhaag jaau"
"Kya bacha hai tu yaar? Durr rehke baat kar... mujhe darr lag rha hai ab" I said and made my distance from him
He said and my eyes widened in shock. I held my towel tightly. I can't trust this kid. What if he pulled my towel. He literally warned me.
He is laughing at me.
The elevator opened and i entered. I went to my apartment and wore my clothes.
What an embarrassing thing I faced.
After a while I left the apartment for the bus stand. I was waiting for the bus when my phone rang flashing Aditya call.
I know he saw my photo in a towel , now he will make my fun so i didn't pick his call.
Finally the bus came , I took my ticket and looked for the seat. There was a girl sitting alone so I sat next to her.
I didn't look towards her as she was looking outside the window. But i felt something near my feet.
Id card , it's her id card i think. I picked it up and called her.
Oh fuck ...she is the same girl i saw in principal office last week. I came out of thoughts when she started yelling at me.
She is thinking I am a thief or some eve teaser. Seriously! Am i looking like that bad.
Kabir: "Hold on miss , I am not what you are thinking , I just saw your id card lying near my feet so I was just giving it to you back."
She just looked towards with narrow eyes and i must say she is looking like an angel.
We talked till our college arrived. She looks beautiful when she laughs, her eyes are so pretty just like her.
We reached our college. She started calling her friends and here I am getting Aditya calls again and again. So I decided to pick it up but before that i should ask for her a number.
Aashi: "Nice to meet you kabir, i have to go now.. I am getting late. And sorry for yelling at you on the bus."
Kabir: " No, it's alright... anybody will react like that. I want to ask you something..."
Before I asked for her number , my phone rang ...again this headache Aditya, Can't he wait for a second.
A message flushed on my screen.
"Pick up my calls you motherfucker...before i make your photo viral." Aditya messaged me.
I don't want that, so i bidder her bye and call Aditya.
Aditya: "what took you so long to receive my calls huh? But your photo made my day...you should roam often in a towel, so that someone will pull your towel making your dick in display"
He said and laughed so hard that I wanted to smash his face.
"Shut the fuck up...first that bastard Aryan left me alone and now you asshole ...trying to torment me virtually"
Aditya: "Yeah so , i will viral your photo with a beautiful caption ...get ready for that."
My eyes widened in shock. I don't want that so I finally gave up and requested till he said "ok" that he will do it. He took my half an hour in this thing.
I thought about going to the canteen to take away coffee from there. I reached the canteen area but saw the gate closed.
I was about to go back when I heard the sound of someone from inside. I was about to knock when the gate opened and a girl bumped into my chest.
She looked towards me and I was shocked to see Aashi standing in front of me. She is crying and shaking immensely.
I asked what she was doing here when I saw kavya coming towards me. Aashi literally hid herself behind me.
Kavya explained to me, that they are raging new students and she had given a task for her to complete.
When I learned about what task they have given her, my blood boils. I literally want to kill that bastard here itself.
Kavya: "come on kabir join us, let her complete the task then if you want you can also have her."
I closed my eyes hearing her saying this to me... I looked towards Aashi she is terrified.
"GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE EVERYONE, IF I EVER SAW YOU ALL NEAR HER ...THEN I WILL KILL YOU ALL. SHE IS NOT A PIECE OF MEAT THAT YOU CAN HAVE IT. GET THIS IN YOUR HEAD AND MOVE OUT" i shouted
I yelled at everyone present in the canteen and i can clearly feel , because of my harsh tone Aashi flinched with shock.
Everyone left she was about to leave when I called her and made her sit on the chair and gave my handkerchief and waterbottle.
She was so happy and excited before. Now she is looking so terrified and scared. I can't see her like that. I was about to touch her cheeks to wipe her tears but i stopped myself.
I should not cross my boundaries.
Aashi: "T...thank you for helping me kabir. I don't know how to say it but thank you so much. I was so scared.."
I cut her in the middle
"Why were you scared? You should fight them or at least call someone...in the bus you yelled at me and now you are looking too scared. You can't stay like a scared kitten. I am sorry I don't want to scare you but I can't help it" I said taking deep breath to calm my nerves down
"Can you give me your phone number? I mean...If anything happens in the future or they trouble you...you can inform me." I said and she forwarded her phone towards me
I saved my number on her phone. We were about to leave when I saw Aryan enter with a girl in the canteen. They are smiling looking towards each other.
But me and Aashi were shocked.
The girl named Maya asked Aashi what we are doing here. I was about to tell her, but Aashi gestured for me not to say.
Aashi: "Who is he? What are you doing with him?"
Maya: "He is my boyfriend. I was about to tell you and Anaya but we didn't want to reveal soon it's Aryan idea. That's why I informed you a few days back"
I looked towards Aryan.
Ohh so he is in a relationship and he didn't tell me and Aditya about it.
We will deal with you later motherfucker.
Aryan: "why are you late kabir? When did you come"
Huh...look at him acting so innocent toward girls. He left me alone in the morning and now asking me why I am late.
I glared at him to make him shut up. I don't want to make this situation awkward so i intertwined between the conversation.
"Let's go guys... We will catch up later." I said and all three of them nodded.
We went to our respective department. I was in my own thoughts when Aryan asked me.
Flashback ends
Present day
Aryan : "Where are you lost?"
"Just thinking about Aashi." I said
We both were sitting in the canteen when I was remembering my first meeting with her.
Aryan: "Why? You know that Aditya loves her, I know you love her too...but you both can't do anything in that. It will be all her choice , whom she will choose. So stop thinking"
"I saw her for the first.time, so she has to be mine not to Aditya." I replied
Aryan: "You both are crazy bastards. Maya told me everything that happened when Vikrant saved her on that day. She was so terrified at that time. She didn't say a word that day. You have to understand, if Aditya didn't give orders to Vikrant that time anything would have happened to her."
He said and i nodded. He is right, just because of Aditya...she was saved that day. But i will not admit it on his face.
"Whatever was the reason, Vikrant saved her. So all the credits go to Vikrant not to Aditya. Don't hype so much for Aditya...you are not only his friend but mine too." I said making him frown
Aryan: "Fine...but for your kind information, I am not going to take anyone's side in future until it's necessary...don't ever let me choose between one of you. You both are my best friends. And i can't see my friends fighting for a girl."
After a while I saw Aashi coming into the canteen with her friends. She is smiling , looking so beautiful.
Aryan called Maya and told her to sit with us. So Aashi and Anaya both came with her orders.
Aashi sitting next to me. She gave me a heart warming soft smile.
I was about to say something when I saw Aditya entering with Vikrant. The smirk on his face is telling so many things that he is about to do something.
Aryan called them both. I gave him a death glare. I don't want Aashi to meet him.
But what shocked me the most was that. Aashi looked towards Aditya and smiled.
Did they meet already?
Didn't she see his blood stained shirt?
