Abhishek and Manjot are part of the team that won the Cricket World Cup. Their fame and respect increased hugely when they got the title back home.
On the other hand Sameeksha's sister, Srishti, is getting married.
Bandana is finally in India, where...
Sameeksha's POV The first match between India-Bangladesh from Bangladesh's India tour was finished and India won by 7 runs.
I was waiting for Abhishek. He played really well today, conceded 28 runs in 4 overs and took 3 crucial wickets. He was so close to his half century, but got out on 43.
He was giving his post match presentation. Bandana was with Manjot, who scored 87*.
I finally saw Abhishek coming with another guy. My attention was focused on my boy, he came smiling. "Kesa khela me?" He asked, I smiled, "yeh to poori crowd, trophy aur cheque ne bata dia, fir bhi pooch rahe ho?" I asked.
He chuckled. "Tumhara review boht matter karta hai" He said, "tum boht accha khele. Ek second ke lie bhi nazar nhi hati tumse" I said. He smiled and looked down.
"Arey yaad aaya, isse milo" He said, "Sameeksha yeh Siddhart hai, mera boht accha friend. Kucch time se injured tha iss lie khel nhi raha tha, ab recover hoke aaya hai" He said, "aur Sidd, yeh Sameeksha hai...my..." He was about to say I'm his girlfriend when Prithvi called him.
"Rahul Sir bula rahe hai, jalda aa" He said, "aaya...guys tum dono baat karo, me abhi aaya" Abhishek said and left.
That was so awkward.
"Umm...how are you? I mean, injury se recover ho gey theek se?" I asked. He smiled, "hona hi tha, vapas jo aana tha" He said. I nodded.
"Tum aur Abhay kabse jaante ho ek dusre ko?" He asked, "kucch mahino se" I replied. "And what do you do?" He asked, "army doctor" I replied with a smile.
"Woah!!" He said making me smile.
Abhishek finally came, I was feeling much comfortable. That Siddhart guy seemed a bit weird, the was he looked at me was different. I chucked it, maybe it was just me.
"Bandana ke saath ghar jao, mujhe yaha rukna padega" Abhishek said, I nodded. "Sidd tu chal, me aata hu" He said, Siddhart nodded.
"Bye Sameeksha, it was nice meeting you" He said giving me a side hug. "S...same here" I said.
"Tum theek ho na?" Abhishek asked placing his hand on my left cheek and rubbing it with his thumb. I nodded and smiled. God knows how he gets to know that I'm not feeling well or I'm hiding something.
"Don't give me fake smile...it hurts" He said sadly, "vese koi na, I know tum Bandana ko to bata hi dogi, to me usse pata kar lunga what's wrong" He said making me chuckle.
"That's the one...yeh chahiye thi" He said smiling. I smiled and lowered my lashes.

The next day I was laying on my bed, tired as hell. Duties of a doctor are difficult, but army doctor...that's some other level stuff.
"Yo!!!" Mandy said coming in the room. "Finally..." I said. "Bolo kya baat karni thi" He said, "it's about yesterday" I said hiding my face in the pillow.
"Abhishek ne kal match ke baad ek ladke se milvaya...Siddhart" I said sitting up on the bed. "He was...kinda...weird" I said.
"Matlab?" He asked. "Like...ajeeb si nazro se dekh raha tha" I said.
I immediately looked at me, "Siddhart?" He asked again. I nodded. "Woh esa bhi hai!?" He said to himself.
"Kyu? Woh alag type ka ladka hai? Hote to tum sab hi kutte ho" I said making a poker face, "well thanks for the compliment but Siddhart thoda alag hi laga hame shuru se" He said.
"Kyu?" I asked. "He basically loved this girl, jab dono chote the. Then she moved to Canada with her family. Uske baad dono kinda bichad gey. Yeh ab bhi usse pyaar karta hai aur uska wait kar raha hai" He said, I cocked my eyebrow, "at least this is what he says...baaki nhi pata" He added.
