Minal:- No you're not! You don't even look okay
Nihal:- Minal I said am okay!!
Minal:- Hmmm! Nihal why are you treating me like the person you just met today? Am your friend. I always tell you, you can count on me! So please tell me what happened. Your eyes even looked like you've cried. What's going on Nihal?
Nihal:- I said am okay!!!(she shouted) so can you just leave me alone please!! Am not just in the mood! Or I stand up and leave the place for you!
Minal:- No you don't have to! I met you here, so I will leave instead! Thank you! ( she stood up and left)
Nihal:-(Shedding tears)
Time;4:30pm
[Naim saw Minal walking alone in the school premises. He quickly rushed and met her]
Naim:- Hey!
Minal:- hey! Naim right?
Naim:- yes! Minal am i also right?
Minal:- lol, yes you're! How you doing and how is studies?
Naim:- am fine! And studies I can say it's getting complicated! You know this is my last semester in AUD
Minal:- wow! I can see you're a graduate in the next two months hun?
Naim:- lol, exactly!! You jealous?
Minal:- hahahahaa! Why won't I be? When I still have two years in this school
Naim:- well, it's just a matter of time! Very soon you will see yourself in final year. By the way, why are you alone today? Where is your friend Nihal?
Minal:-(frowned face) I don't know! I just saw her in the garden yesterday morning and I couldn't find her during the lectures today
Naim:- what? You mean she misses her classes? Minal tell me what's wrong? And why did you frowned your face when I asked of Nihal? Did you two got a problem?
Minal:- Naim that's the question I don't have an answer to because as far as I know, we didn't have any problem but then I saw her at the school garden she seems to be in deep problem. I talked to her trying to know what's wrong with her but then for the first time Nihal shouted at me!! I couldn't believe it! She even wanted to leave the place but I chose to left instead because I met her there!
Naim:- O my God!! This is serious! Minal please what do you think is the problem then?
Minal:- I swear to God I don't know Naim! Remember the day she poured you that milkshake at the mall? She was facing some problems since then and she was about to tell me about it when you approached! Later on we met again but then she looked happy and she didn't tell me what the problem was. She only told me that I shouldn't border, that she already have solutions to her problem. I even insist that she tell me the problem and the plans she have on it because I know Nihal she always thinks antagonistic! Now am thinking she did something to the problem she said she had and the thing has gotten worst! I just don't know!
Naim:- I can't believe this! What's going on with Nihal? Where can I find her now please?
Minal:- I don't know actually! I told you she even missed her classes today! But Naim word of advice, Don't even approach Nihal now! You know her, and you know how she behaves anytime you approach her talk less of now that she isn't in the mood to even talk to me her friend!
Naim:- Hmmm! Minal there is something you should know. Minal I love Nihal!! I know am just mentioning this for the first time but that's just the truth! I love her!And I don't care am ready to take all sort of rudeness she will show to me until I win her heart!! So I can't be at peace when I know she is going trough something! Right now this conversation we are having you don't know how am feeling deep inside me!
Minal:- Hmmm!!! Naim since from the way I saw you giving much attention to Nihal even with all she's doing to you, I know you love her. Just that she didn't even give you chance to be with her talk less of revealing it out! And you know what? Yes you really love Nihal! Because not all guys can take what Nihal is doing to you!
Naim:- Thank you for understanding that! What about Sinal her sister? She will surely know what is happening to her sister
Minal:- I didn't see Sis Nal through out this week!
Naim:- It's okay! I will try looking for the two sisters tomorrow! And please just be considerate with your friend. Yourself you told me she is going through something. So don't let what happened between you two affects your friendship
Minal:- Lol, I know right! Actually it pained me when it happened but then I came to thought of it that my friend is having some problems that's why she treated me that way. So I don't have problem with that anymore! It's okay it has passed away already!!
Naim:- thank you for understanding!! So you're done for the day?
Minal:- yes am done!
Naim:- let me take you home then
Minal:- No thanks! The driver is on his way already!
Naim:- it's alright!! I will take my leave, take care!
Minal:- bye! Take care Naim!

Sinal:- Bextie I will be going to school tomorrow!
Siyam:- am glad you said that yourself! We've already missed lectures for three days!
Sinal:- yes that's what I was thinking and anyway, if we get to school tomorrow, I will register for the dormitory
Siyam :- what? You're going back to the hostel? Sinal but.......
Sinal:-(cuts in) please bextie don't try to stop me. I've already made up my mind! You see, the only reason why am kind of cooled up now is because am staying with you. If to say am at home am sure a lot of things would have happened now! And bextie we're in our final year now! I don't want to have problem with my studies! Because if I should go back home am sure I won't have peace of mind and that will affect my studies! So I've already made my decision to stay in the hostel!
Siyam:- well, I hope mum and dad will agree to that. You know we've to inform them
Sinal:- after school tomorrow, we will drop by and I will inform them. From there I can get all my things
Siyam:- it's okay! Till tomorrow then!
(Door bell ringing )
Sinal:-I think it's your hubby. Let me go inside
Siyam:- No! Actually he said he wants to talk to you but till you're cool up. So let him just come in
Siyam:-(stood up and opened the door) Hey baby! Welcome
Siyam's Hus:- Thanks dear!
Sinal:- Welcome
Siyam's Hus:- Thanks Sinal ! You look fresh today! It seems you've started to let go of things!
Siyam:- that was just what I was telling her. So you said you wanted to talk to her. I think you can do that now, she will be okay with that!
Siyam's Hus:- (Sat) yea! Just want to tell her one or two things. Sinal I heard all that happened, am very sorry about it. But you've to be strong, be patient because all of them are your family and you can't change them. No matter what happened, Nihal is your sister and the ambassador is your dad. So Sinal you should know that misunderstandings shouldn't break up your family bond. And about you and Mubar, if you're destined to be together, you will surely be! And if you're not, no one can make that happen no matter what Love you've for each other!
Sinal:- that was Mubar's last statement to me. That if we're destined to be together, we will surely be! And that's the statement that's making me feel better anytime I remember! Just that you know something's are just painful. My own blood sister! And all upon that my own dad making decision that he knows is so unfair to me!
Siyam's Hus:- Yes I understand! That's why I said you need to be more strong and overcome this. One day it will all come to pass. There are a lot of relationship issues and problems that are more complicated than yours, but people do overcomes them.
Sinal:- It's like you and your wife have same tongue hun? You are always saying the same thing! It's okay, thanks for the advice
Siyam:- hahahah!! That's the bond in we two! Anyway, baby we will be going back to school tomorrow!
Siyam's Hus:- am glad! Even though you two decided to stay at home for days to chill hun?
(Hahahahahah they all laughed)
