Everyone was startled when they felt the cold water, but their frowns turned into smiles when they saw Virika with her toothless smile. She also drenched Arnav, one of her classmates, similarly.
"Virika! Come down. Let's play Holi together..." he shouted from below.
"No, I won't come down. I'm sure you'll put the fast colour on me again like last year. I had an allergic reaction to that."
Listening to Virika, Arnav smiled mischievously. Smirking, he said, "You won't get an allergic reaction to the colours I'm using this time. Instead, you'll be itching all over. I have added an itching powder to the colours."
After saying that, Arnav laughed and ran away. Sometime later, Virika saw Arnav holding a water gun and a mug in front of her house. Virika became alert. She had informed her parents that Arnav had mixed an itching powder in the colours he was spraying on everyone.
