The door knob started to turn and before I could process anything else I was pushed into the wardrobe next to us by nishit who was now infront of me in the wardrobe. He closed the door and we heard someone opening the door of his room. There was very little space in the wardrobe, so we were barely 1 inch away from each other. I saw a cockroach next to us.

A scream was about to leave when nishit placed his hand on my mouth covering it. He looked at me in the dark. I could smell his expensive cologne. It was rosewood mixed with a sense of lavender. For a brief second, we stared into each other's eyes.

" I am sure I heard him talking. " Kunal said and we listened carefully.

" Did he jump from the window to avoid me ?" On hearing this, nishit ducked his head and smiled. He had dimples. God he has dimples and his face turns a pretty shade of pink. Seeing him smile, I also did but his hand was still on my mouth. I noticed the back of his hand which had tatto.

' once you become fearless life becomes limitless.'

Suits him, I thought. After like 30 seconds, Kunal left. Nishit dropped his hand to the side and we both sighed. He listened carefully if he is still here but when no sound came he opened the door. He stepped away and locked the door. My eyes squinted as they adjusted themselves to the sudden brightness.

" That was so unexpected. " He said shaking his head. I nodded.

" I told you it was not a good idea." I said.

" I told you it was not a good idea. " He repeated in a girlish voice, mocking my voice. I bit my inner cheek to control my smile. " Now get to work. " He ordered in his deep voice.

" Okay, so I will put your clothes on hanger and you set them in the wardrobe." He nodded. " But let's clean this wardrobe first." I started cleaning it and he helped me in throwing trash or cleaning the cloth.

After like 10 minutes, we were done cleaning the wardrobe. I started carefully hanging his expensive clothes on hanger. He was hanging them in wardrobe or atleast trying.

" Roy !! " He half yelled. Panic clear in his voice.

" What ??" I went to him.

" My hand is stuck in this shit, it was falling again and again so I tried to hang it. " He complained , knitting his eyebrows together. I helped him in taking his hand out. I ordered him to sit there because it was the best he could do. After setting all his clothes in wardrobe, I looked at the wardrobe which didn't even have space to fit feather in it. Only I know how I fit them. It took me like two hours to do so.

The room was pretty much clear now as the biggest problem has been solved. It was time to set his books and study table. After cleaning the upper half of the table I sat on the floor. He also sat on floor. I played the song ' aadha ishq ' to lighten up the atmosphere.

" Do you like music ?" I asked to nishit who was tightening the screw of drawer of the study table. He looked at me in shock.

" Do you know anything about me ?" He asked me, still in shock.

" Except your business, no." I said smiling awkwardly.

" We went to London to learn music. We are debuting in the annual fall function. It will be happening soon. " He gave me the data I wasn't aware of at all. So that was why his voice was so attractive.

" Then why are you here ? "

" My father wants me to learn management as he want me to pay attention to business also. " He said, now focusing again on screw. " It's done."

After setting all his books. He changed the bed sheet and I cleaned the floor. It was almost 10 : 30 pm. My stomach growled.

" Do you want to eat something ? " He asked. I nodded vigorously. I sat on bed and opened my bag.

" Woahh ! You brang too much. " He exclaimed. Taking a coke, I leaned on the wall behind bed. I don't know when I slept but it was 11:17 when I woke up. I was still sitting on the bed instead of laying, just a thin sheet was thrown over me. I looked at nishit who installed the led lights already. He closed the bulb and turned the led. The whole room lit up with light golden warm light.

" Waoo !!" I exclaimed. He turned around. The warm light fell on his skin making it golden brown. I don't know if it was just because I woke up from the sleep right now but I was finding him attractive.

" You are awake." He said, slowly walking to me. His deep voice penetrating through the air of this room. I gazed at him, mesmerized. I stood, folding the sheet. " Everything is done, you can leave. " I nodded.

I moved to the window.

" It's curfew time, noone will be here. You can leave from the door. And I put something in the bag. Open in the dorm." He said handing me my bag.

I opened the door. I was about to leave when he said, " let me drop you I have some work over there."

" What work do you have in girls dorm ?" I asked confused.

" You won't be too happy to know that." He said with usual smirk on his face. I pursed my lips.

He stepped out from the room and locked it. The corridor was empty. Only sound was of our shoes.

" Do I have any task for tommorow ?" I asked him, tearing that awkward silence between us. He looked at me and then again Looked at the front.

" Do you want one ?"

" Absolutely not."

" Then yes." He said now looking at me, grinning. This boy !! " You will know that later. "

We reached the dorm. I stepped in expecting him to follow my lead. He turned around and started walking away from the dorm. " Don't you have work here ?"

" I am not in the mood anymore." He said in his nonchalant tone. I was about to go back when he called me.

" Roy." I looked at him. " Thanku. For today. " He smiled and started walking quickly. He was hesitant. I smiled and left for my room.

करिबी इतनी थी हमारी कि सांसें घुल गईं

मगर अब इस कम्बख्त दिल को कौन समझाए कि,

सांसें एक होने से हाथों की लकीर एक नहीं हुआ करतीं
