PART 3
The next morning, Shourya came out of his room and noticed the letters inside his letterbox.
He picked them up and read them.
A smile appeared on his face.
Shourya: These girls will never change.
He knew immediately that Shagun, Bebo and Kitty were behind the prank.
He put the letters aside and left for college.
AT THE COLLEGE
Shourya entered the classroom.
Shourya: Good morning, everyone.
Students: Good morning, Sir.
Shourya began his lecture.
Anokhi listened carefully, taking notes.
Shagun, however, was busy watching Shourya.
Suddenly, Shourya asked a question.
Shourya: Who can answer this?
Anokhi raised her hand.
Shourya: Yes, Anokhi.
She gave the correct answer.
Shourya: Excellent.
Shagun immediately raised her hand.
Shagun: Sir, I know the answer too.
Shourya: Then tell me.
Shagun gave an incorrect answer.
The class laughed.
Shourya smiled.
Shourya: Shagun, confidence is good. But you need to combine it with preparation.
Shagun: I'll prepare better next time, Sir.

Shourya: I hope so.
Anokhi smiled.
Shagun noticed it.
She didn't like it.
THE COLLEGE SPORTS GROUND
That afternoon, the college held selections for various sporting activities.
Anokhi participated in badminton.
She defeated one opponent after another.
Bebo and Kitty watched from the side.
Bebo: She's good at studies and sports.
Kitty: She seems to be good at everything.
Shagun folded her arms.
Shagun: Don't praise her so much.
Anokhi won the final match.
The students applauded.
Shourya, who had been watching the competition, congratulated her.
Shourya: Well played, Anokhi.
Anokhi: Thank you, Sir.
Shourya: You really are an all-rounder.
Anokhi: I believe that studies and extracurricular activities should go together.
Shourya: That's a very good attitude.
Shagun walked over.
Shagun: Congratulations.
Anokhi looked surprised.
Anokhi: Thank you.
Shagun smiled, but there was rivalry in her eyes.
Shagun: Enjoy your victory while it lasts.
Anokhi calmly replied.
Anokhi: I don't compete with people, Shagun. I compete with myself.
She picked up her racket and walked away.
Shourya looked impressed by her maturity.
A FEW DAYS LATER
The college principal called an assembly.
Everyone gathered in the auditorium.
The principal stepped onto the stage.
Principal: Today, we have some wonderful news. Our college has received a scholarship opportunity for an exceptionally meritorious student.
The students listened eagerly.
Principal: The scholarship will cover her educational expenses and recognize her outstanding academic and extracurricular achievements.
Anokhi sat quietly.
The principal smiled.
Principal: The scholarship has been awarded to Anokhi Bhalla.
The entire auditorium erupted in applause.
Anokhi was stunned.
She slowly stood up.
Shourya applauded proudly.
The principal handed her the scholarship certificate.
Principal: Congratulations, Anokhi. You have earned this through your hard work.
Anokhi: Thank you, Ma'am. I promise I'll continue working hard.
She looked toward Shourya.
He gave her an encouraging smile.
AFTER THE ASSEMBLY
Shourya met Anokhi outside.
Shourya: Congratulations.
Anokhi: Thank you, Sir.
Shourya: You deserved it.
Anokhi: This scholarship means a lot to me. It will help me continue my studies without becoming a burden on my family.
Shourya: Never underestimate yourself. Your talent and determination will take you very far.
Anokhi smiled.
Anokhi: I want to build a career of my own.
Shourya: And you will.

There was a brief silence.
Anokhi looked at him.
Anokhi: Sir, you always encourage me.
Shourya: Because I know you have potential.
Anokhi smiled and walked away.
Shourya watched her go.
SHAGUN'S ROOM
Shagun was furious after hearing about Anokhi's scholarship.
Bebo and Kitty sat beside her.
Shagun: How does she always manage to get everything?
Bebo: She's genuinely brilliant.
Shagun: I don't care.
Kitty: What are you going to do?
Shagun thought for a moment.
Shagun: Nothing.
Bebo and Kitty looked surprised.
Shagun: If she wants to study, let her study.
She smiled mischievously.
Shagun: But I'm not going to let her become the only person Shourya Sir notices.
THE FOLLOWING DAYS
Anokhi continued excelling.
She topped examinations, participated in sports competitions, and represented the college in cultural activities.
Whenever Bebo and Kitty tried to provoke her, she refused to be distracted.
One afternoon, they surrounded her outside the classroom.
Bebo: Anokhi, don't you ever get tired of being the perfect student?
Kitty: Maybe she thinks the whole college revolves around her.
Shagun stood beside them.
Shagun: Let her be. She has her scholarship now.
Anokhi looked at all three.
Anokhi: If you have a problem with me, say it directly.
They fell silent.
Anokhi: I came here to study, build my career, and make my family proud. I'm not interested in fighting with anyone.
She picked up her books.
Anokhi: You can waste your time bullying me. I won't waste mine responding.
She walked away.
Shagun watched her.
For the first time, she realized that Anokhi couldn't be easily intimidated.
A NEW BEGINNING
Months passed.
Anokhi completed her studies with outstanding results.
On the day of her final examination, she looked around the classroom.
Shourya stood near the door.
Shourya: So, this is it.
Anokhi: Yes, Sir.
Shourya: No more lectures.
Anokhi smiled.
Anokhi: I'll miss your lectures.
Shourya: And I'll miss having such a hardworking student.
Anokhi became emotional.
Anokhi: You have taught me much more than what was in the textbooks.
Shourya: Remember what I always told you. Your future comes first.
Anokhi: I remember.
Shourya wished her success.
Anokhi left the college with her scholarship certificate and degree.
She was determined to find a job and build her own identity.
Shourya watched her leave, unaware that fate would bring them together again—but this time, not as a lecturer and student.
FIVE YEARS LATER
Anokhi had established herself professionally.
She was independent, confident, and successful.
One evening, she received an unexpected job opportunity from a prestigious institution.
She accepted it.
On her first day, she walked into the office.
The door opened.
She stopped in her tracks.
Standing before her was the man she had never completely forgotten.
Shourya.
He looked equally stunned.
For several seconds, neither spoke.
Their eyes met.
Years had passed.
But the feelings they had once tried to ignore had never completely disappeared.
Shourya: Anokhi?
She smiled softly.
Anokhi: Hello, Shourya.
And fate had finally brought them together again.
