Part 4 - A New Hope
Aggrawal Mansion: Sanyukta's room
Sanyukta hurriedly got up from her bed and dashed towards her closet opening it with a force making few of her belongings topple down at her feet.
She reached for a medium size wooden box which was placed at the farthest corner of cupboard hidden behind the stack of clothes. She cautiously opened the box by lifting the lid, secretly hoping it to be opposite of what she's expecting only to get it discarded.
Sanyukta gasped as she found the box empty.
"Kausto...tune mera letter...kyun?"asked Sanyukta helplessly.
"Toh aur nai toh kya karti...you were not going to post it anytime soon near the future, so maine socha ki yeh shubh kaam main hi kar deti hun"said Kaustaki.
"Par Kausto, main aaj nai toh kal apna college admission letter submit karwa deti"said Sanyukta.
"Jo ho gaya so ho gya Sanyu...the good news is we've got admission in F.I.T.E college and here is your acceptance letterrr..."said Kaustaki singing happily handing Sanyukta her acceptance letter from F.I.T.E.
Sanyukta's hands were shaking as she opened her letter; she closed her eyes and takes a deep breath to relax herself. But what she saw made her heart swelled with happiness, not only she'd been accepted in top most Mechanical Engineering College; she'd cleared her respective entrance exam with Rank II among all.
Her face glowed with utmost happiness and her eyes also participated in the form of tears. She'd known her result from Kaustaki who herself came 4thwhich in itself was a big achievement as she'd never told anyone in the family about sitting for an entrance exam.
Sanyukta has always wanted to pursue Mechanical Engineering and become a successful Mechanical Engineer. She'd always got fascinated by seeing Machines of all types whether small or large, be it in any shape at very small age. She got excited and curious whenever she'd got the opportunity to learn about the world of machines of what they look from inside, how they work and type of different parts used in making it work smoothly.
We can say that Sanyukta is equally fascinated by outer beauty as well as inner beauty of machines. Even in her childhood if anything got damaged or stopped working and needed to get repaired and then whenever the repair man come, Sanyukta get really excited as she got to see how he works and play with different wires and bolts, thus making it as good as original.
"Sanyuuu...we did it, I'm so happy yaar"Kaustaki screamed happily breaking Sanyukta's trance.
"Yes Kausto, finally main apni dream ki taraf ek step le paungi"said Sanyukta emotionally hugging Kaustaki tightly as tears of happiness still flowed from her eyes.
Kaustaki nodded smilingly hugging her back.
Suddenly she felt Sanyukta's body getting stiffened and pulled back from her to see Sanyukta's glum face with a frown marring her beautiful face.
"Par..."Sanyukta trailed worriedly.
"Kya hua Sanyu, tu achanak se tensed kyun ho gayi?"asked Kaustaki cupping the side of her face.
"Who Kausto, admission toh maine le liya...par main ghar mein sab ko kya kahungi aur kaise...mujhe kuch samajh mein nai aa raha hai who bhi ek dum short notice pe" said Sanyukta tensed.
"Sanyu relax, I'm sure tu sab kuch ache se kar legi aur teri so-called family maan bhi jayegi aur woh sab seedhe tarah se na mane toh tu apni unhe THE SANYUKTA OBEROI wali side dikhana, phir toh..."said Kaustaki playing her tongue in inside of cheek smirking at her.
Sanyukta's eyes widened at her suggestion and smiled at her back graciously accepting it.
For any outsider, Sanyukta might seem like a pitiful, selfless soul who can't voice out her thoughts and simply bear all the tortures with lips zipped tight. Its not that she can't tell her family about her dreams and simply agreed to what they say, its just that she loves them, care for them and respects them so much to hurt them as they were the only who took her in their shelter when she had no one in the world not caring how'll they treat her, so she does only one thing that is push back her dream, passion and ambition on the back seat while keeping their interest in front.
"Theek hai...I'll talk to them soon"Said Sanyukta.

Shekhawat Mansion:
As the clock chimed 8'o, Randhir opens the front door walking, fingers pressed to the pulse at his neck as he looks down at his wristwatch. He's dressed in a sweat-soaked T-shirt and jogging pants looking deviously handsome with few of his front hair sticking to his forehead due to sweat running down and his ragged breathing with a bottle in one of his hand.
"Arre Randhir baba aap aa gaye...jaiye aap jaldi se tayar ho ke aa jayiye, main aapka nashta laga deta hun" said Kaka taking the bottle from him.
"Jee Kaka"Randhir nodded walking upstairs towards his room.
As he walked into his room, he was much calmer than before. Jogging always helps him in clearing his thoughts and fully activating and refreshing his rational side which helps in making decisions according to the aroused situation.
He takes a towel and pair of trouser from his closet and goes into the bathroom for a nice relaxing shower. He immediately discarded his clothes one by one and stood under the shower by placing both his hands on each side of wall, head down with water running down his full toned shape body washing away the sweat from his body while he thought about the step he'd taken to make the future more worth-living and fulfilling his every wishes and desire too.
Talking about his wishes and dream are nothing but being a successful Mechanical Engineer. From his childhood itself he was interested in machines and everything related to them. Whenever his father was not in home or he hardly noticed when he does, Randhir watched many programmes relating to machinery skills many of which intrigued him most and also confuse him and surprise him as how can they work with weirdest type of material add onto it making it attractive and innovative.
When his father left him leaving him all shattered, he'd done only one thing to distract himself from the agonizing pain which seems to be increasing at every passing second almost making him numb from the feeling and that is to pursue his dream. As he was very young at that time so he can't do much just accompany his Farheen Chacha to his garage who lived nearby and owned a garage which runs smoothly on a good basis. Little Randhir sits there all the time helping his Chacha and keenly taking interest in every little thing that was happening around him, i.e. fixing machines, repairing cars etc. and asking questions based on them.
Soon Randhir walked out from the bathroom in his trousers and drying his wet hair with one hand. He'd also given entrance exam for admission in F.I.T.E and achieved NO.1 RANK among all which only added to his charms.
He walked down the stairs heading towards the dining table for his breakfast which was waiting for him to be eaten up when he saw Kaka arriving with few letters in his hands.
"Randhir baba yeh kuch letters aaye hai...jisme se yeh aapke liye hai aur baki saare ghar ke maintenance ke bill hai" said Kaka handing the letter to Randhir.
As soon as he saw the letter he knew what would be behind it recognizing from the cover as it is from F.I.T.E. and opened it only to find what he expected. He'd been accepted in College which will help in pursuing his dream.
As he was about to put first morsel into his mouth, his phone vibrated with his buddy's name flashing on the screen.
"Hello Randhir bhai"said the person on the other side of the call.
"Haan bol Jiggy, kya hua?"asked Randhir.
Yes, the person on the call is Jiggy.
"Randhir bhai aap ko F.I.T.E ka acceptance letter toh mil hi gaya hoga...toh mujhe aapse bahut zaruri kaam hai"said Jiggy with an comical urgency in his voice.
"Haan...abhi abhi I read that only...tu bol kya kaam hai tujhe aur wo bhi itni subah-subah"asked Randhir.
"Who kya hai na Randhir bhai, aapne letter toh padh hi lia hai aur usme yeh bhi padh bhi lia ki humari joining date 1stseptember ki hai yani exactly 4 din baad...so mujhe thoda samaan lena hai..so aap mere saath chal rahe hai city mall"said Jiggy with finality but with a hint of pleading in his voice.
As Randhir was about to make an excuse to deny his offer cum demand, Jiggy's voice coursed through the speaker.
"Nahi Randhir bhai aapko chalna hi padega, mujhe aapki help chahiye aur waise bhi aapki bhi shopping ho jayegi" said Jiggy in hope of making him come with him.
Randhir sighed agreeing to him.
"Theek hai...chal meet me in half an hour"said Randhir.
"Okay Randhir bhai thank you soo much for agreeing"said Jiggy in over dramatic way making Randhir shake his head at him.

Aggarwal Mansion: Sanyukta's room
"Sanyu tune padha na letter mein...humare paas sirf 4 days hai sare arrangements ke liye aur abhi tak humne kuch bhi nai kia hai"said Kaustaki worriedly.
"Kausto sab kuch ho jayega...don'tt worry"said Sanyukta assuring her.
"Kaise Sanyu...baki sari accessories ka ho jayega kaise bhi...but kapde, uske liye toh hume shopping jana hi hoga...toh kyun na hum aaj chale aur waise bhi tera saara kaam bhi ho gaya hai yahan...chal na"Kaustaki pleaded.
"But Kuasto aaj aur wo bhi abhi aise kaise...aur ghar pe koi hai bhi nai"said Sanyukta unsurely.
"Yeh toh aur bhi achi baat hai na koi hoga hi nai tujhe rokne ke liye aur hum jaldi wapas aa jayenge kisi ke aane se pehle...please chal na hum city mall jayenge shopping ke liye"said Kausto excitedly.
"uhh...okay"Sanyukta agrees seeing her cute puppy face hoping for the day to get over without any more trouble.
