iara stood at the entrance of the sprawling medical college, her heart pounding with excitement and nervousness. The sun shone brightly overhead, illuminating the white buildings that represented everything she had worked for. Her childhood dream of becoming a doctor was finally within reach, but stepping into this new world felt overwhelming. She had left behind her hometown, her family, and the comfort of familiarity to face the unknown challenges of medical school.

As she entered her hostel room, Tiara took a deep breath. The small, bare space felt cold and foreign, but it was now her new home. She unpacked her things quickly, her hands shaking slightly from the nerves. Her first class was about to begin, and she wanted to make a good impression. Grabbing her books and notebook, she headed out, the nervous flutter in her stomach refusing to settle.

The lecture hall was already filling up with other first-year students. Everyone seemed as anxious and eager as she was, exchanging quick glances and whispers as they took their seats. Tiara chose a spot near the middle, trying to blend in and not draw too much attention to herself. She arranged her notes carefully, hoping to drown out her racing thoughts.

Just as the classroom began to quiet down, the door swung open again. A group of seniors walked in, their presence commanding immediate attention. They were loud and carefree, chatting among themselves, clearly unfazed by the rigid academic atmosphere. It became clear that the professor wasn’t there yet, and the seniors were here for another reason.

That’s when Tiara saw him. Among the group of seniors, one boy stood out. He was taller than the others, with an easy, confident smile that seemed to light up the room. His name was Robin, she would soon learn, but in that moment, all she could focus on was how everything around her seemed to blur as his eyes swept over the classroom and landed on her.

For the first time in her life, Tiara felt a pull so strong it made her heart skip a beat. A single glance from him, and she knew—something had shifted.
