पहली दफ़ा आँखों से हैं ये नींदें ख़फ़ा
कि तेरी ओर चल पड़ा ये दिल का रास्ता
पहली दफ़ा आँखों से हैं ये नींदें ख़फ़ा
कि तेरी ओर चल पड़ा ये दिल का रास्ता
ओ, तेरी धड़कन से मेरी धड़कन अब जुड़ने लगी
क्या मैं करूँ? क्या करूँ? क्या करूँ? ❤️✨

As the next day dawned upon, Abhimanyu was engaged in a conversation with one of his classmates when he heard Aashmi's irritated voice, "Move Abhimanyu."
He rolled her eyes, listening to her irritated voice, even in the morning but stood up giving her the seat, which was hers, according to their bet for the rest of the week.
"Can I sit inside today?" She asked, her voice a slow whisper as she looked at him. Confusion knitted his brows at her request but nonetheless he agreed, giving her space to enter. She sat on her seat, letting out a heavy sigh, and kept her head down.
Abhimanyu stared at her in bewilderment as Aashmi sat there with her head down, a stark contrast to the vibrant energy he had come to associate with her. Over the past few days, he had watched her always surrounded by her friends mainly Aditya, sharing laughter and lively conversations. But today, she skipped the usual chatter, leaving him puzzled. Instead of letting his intrusive thoughts win, he shook off his thoughts, and decided to approach Ishaan, who was deep in conversation with Yash.
Yash was talking, with a genuine smile on his face. Instinctively, Abhimanyu felt a smile tugging at his own lips. After everything that had happened in the past year, Yash's demeanor had shifted dramatically, the once cheerful person had retreated into himself, often choosing solitude over their friendship. Despite his friends' persistent efforts to draw him back into their circle, it seemed like he had no intention of rejoining them, the feeling of companionship pricking him after that one incident. However, as time passed, Yash began to recognize their support. And thus seeing their unwavering support, he made a conscious effort to transform himself into a better version of who he once was. 
While Abhimanyu felt a flicker of happiness at seeing his friend make an effort, a nagging doubt lingered in his mind. Was Yash genuinely trying or everything he was doing is just a facade? He decided to confront him only to know about the presence of a person, Yash's guiding angel as named by him, who had sparked this change which only deepened Abhimanyu's confusion about the person.
As Abhimanyu walked towards them, his mind went back to their conversation months back, his mind swirling with thoughts of the person who had pulled Yash from the cocoon of darkness he had wrapped himself in. Even though his friends remained unaware of this influential figure, Abhimanyu couldn't help but feel a surge of happiness at seeing Yash emerge once more. His heart, filled with gratitude for his friend's guiding angel.
