Flashback 

8 years ago

It'd been a month since Teju had started her college. In this one month, she formed an amazing bond with Aditi Rai. Their similar taste in almost everything just made their bond more deeper. It was lunch time, so Teju with her friend Aditi went to canteen to grab something to eat.

They were walking towards the empty table but Teju tripped and fall in the arms of the guy that she had started to hate lately.

"Why you always end up in my arms? It can't be a coincidence right?" Karan taunted as he helped Teju stand on her feet, his arms still wrapped around her

Teju got out of his arm and kicked his leg. "Yes it's not a coincidence that tumhara leg always mere raste me aa jata hai."

Both gave each other a death glare. Aditi pulled Teju from there to an empty table and made her sit pulling a chair.

"Tune dekha kese bat karta hai yeh mujhse. Ek number ka ghatiya insaan hai" Teju spoke cursing Karan.

"But he's hot and you can't deny that." Aditi said out of nowhere.

"Hot my foot." Teju spated as she took a bite from her grilled sandwich and started chewing angrily.

Teju just hated this guy named Karan Kundrra, the very popular boy of the college. Within a month, she understood that Karan is one of those spoilt brats with a long list of girls swooning over him.

Within a few months Karan became popular in college. Being a part of the coolest gang of the college and a good cricketer of the college cricket team, he was always in the Spotlight.With charming looks and killer attitude, he became every girl's favourite, well except one Tejasswi Prakash, the nerd of the class. Her not giving him a damn attitude didn't set well with him.

When the first day he bumped into her and she fell into his arms, he thought it was her plane. But with time, he came to know that she was not like other girls who throw themselves into his arms just by his smile. She was different. But he couldn't figure out whether she was good kind of different or bad kind of different.

Her being irresistible to his charms hurt his ego and somehow it tuned into something like hatred making him do things like annoying her and bulling her.

Currently, he was in canteen with his gang, chatting and laughing. That's when his eyes fell on Teju. She was talking and laughing with her friend Aditi and Rishabh. Off late, she had been getting closer to Rishabh, Karan's nemesis since Highschool. It kind of irked him that she didn't even spare him a glance but was laughing on Rishabh's stupid jokes.

"See, how Rishabh wooed her in a few days" Amir, Karan's friend spoke eyeing them.

"She doesn't even spare you a glance." Amyra taunted.

"Haa. Karan ko bhau bhi nahi deti yeh ladki but dekh kese has rahi hai uske bato pe." Rahul, their another friend spoke trying to bruise Karan's ego.

Karan's blood boiled as he heard their conversation. The comments they were making provoked him to a point that he couldn't control himself.

"Next six months, within next six months she will be in my arms. Willingly. Yeh Mera challenge hai." He stated in a challenging tone and left from there in rage.
