Days passed by, Arreum and Nischay haven't talked about how were they going to find things out. They both were too busy to be focusing on other things.

The classes were going as usual, teachers came and introduced new topics to the students and the assignment's pile was just increasing.

The next class was named as "Business startup". The assigned teacher came and started. "Good morning students. As we all have been studying about how one can start his own business from the past few days, I have an amazing project for you. Before introducing the topic, let's divide you in groups. Each group would have 4 students in it."

As the teacher finished, he took out an box from the lockers in the classrooms. He placed it on his table and started again. "Okay so, each student would come forward and take a paper slip out and whosever name would be announced, they will be going in that team. Starting from team A1."

Arreum's pov

The students came forward and took the slips out, by far, three teams had been decided. A1, A2, and B1.

"Nischay malhan- B2." A student took a slip out and called out Nischay's name. He went and stood at the assigned corner, slightly leaning against the wall. He stood there observing few of the students, with no interest at all.

"Jake Howard- B2." I heard a name being called and it sounded familiar. I shifted my gaze to the boy who went and stood beside Nischay. I know this guy, he's the one who snatched my phone away on my first day and apologized like a manic. I saw girls around me squealing and whispering.

Oh well, these two guys are the "perfect visuals" of this class, is what they say. Nischay being first and Jake well, second. Huh, typical behavior of the girls. I mean who rankes a person based on their appearance?

I was daydreaming and that's when I heard my name being called.
"Arreum Campbell- B2."

What. The. Fuck.

I am in the same team as them? Wow, I already have a bad feeling about this. I stood up and took a place beside Jake. I can already feel all eyes on me.

"What? Both Arreum and Nischay, the faces of the school are in the same team? Oh my God."

"She's already got both the guys? Such a bitch."

I averted my attention from the whisperings. I fucking hate attention for real. And guess what? The last person to join the team was Aria. Well, thank God, I have her or else it would have been so hard for me.

She came and stood beside and held my arm, she is clingy but it's okay. I am fine with it. She was smiling ear to ear and looked like she won a lottery or something.

"Hey, what's your deal? Why are you so happy?" I whispered to her.

"Omg I have you, what else do I need now? I'm so happy to have you in my team, Arreum!" She squealed and side hugged me. I smiled at her cuteness. "Me too." I whispered back.

Till now all the teams had been decided. We have B2, C1 and C2 added to the list. We all stood with our teams as the teacher decided the leader for the team.

"And for B2, Nischay will lead the team. And, Arreum you will help him do so. And for C1.." The teacher further explained. Great just fucking great.

"Okay so now attention everyone. What you have to do is, you will choose a product, first of all. It could be a cosmetic product, a clothing product or so. You will have to sell 1000 copies of the choosed product. For that, you have to come up with a marketing strategy. Think of the ways you can gain purchasers and make a file of it, photos attached. For this project, you have a month. By the end of this month, I must see everyone's performance. The best one goes on the billboard. Got that?" The teacher finished.

Well, selling 1000 products? In a month? That's not gonna be easy. How will we make this possible?

The teacher told us to start preparing for the project. And right now, our team is in the practice room.

"Okay so let's start with introducing ourselves, however, I think it is not much needed." Aria began.

"I'll go first, I'm Aria Le Blank. The daughter to Mathieu Le Blank." She finished. I've heard of him, Mathieu. He's, not one of the persons I would like to have a meeting with. He's..greedy but I guess, that's just how business works.

"I'll go second. I'm Nischay Malhan. The heir to Malhans industries." Nischay spoke.

"Okay, I'm, as you know, Arreum Campbell. The heiress to KS Corporations." I said.

"And I, am Jake Howard. The heir to Howard Enterprises."
He finished.

As everyone was done, Nischay noticed the silence and decided to speak. "Okay guys, now that we're done with introduction. Let's focus on the project, I hope we all will corporate with each other and work hard, right?" He asked with a small encouraging smile on his face.

"Ofcourse!" We three cheered in unison and smiled.

"Okay good. Look, I'm not a good leader to be honest, but I'll try. I hope you both will understand what we mean, right Arreum?" He asked as he looked at me. Well, I'm grateful that he is adding me in the conversation because honestly, I don't know what to speak right now.

I nodded. We all did. "So let's sit and decide." We all took out seats and looked at each other. "Okay, so does anyone has any idea, what product we can choose?" I finally said, seeing Nischay making all the effort, while I just sit and do nothing does not feels right.

"What if we choose watches? Watches of Patek Philippe or maybe.." Jake started, but was immediately cut off by I and Nischay.

"No." I and Nischay said in unison and then looked that each other in amazement.

"No, why?" He asked.

"Actually, as much as I appreciate you for suggesting, but I think it's not a good idea. Why, let me tell you. First, we need to gather as many customers we can and it would only be possible if we attract the local public, more than that of the rich ones. Besides that, Patek Philippe is an extremely expensive brand. Also, we need to look for a simple yet useful thing. What say?" I said to which I saw Nischay nod.

"Exactly. I think we can go with some skin care product, like skin moisturizer or hair gel.." Aria spoke to which we all nodded.

"Yes, that could be a great approach. So Arreum, how about skin moisturizer?" Nischay asked me.

"Yea, why not. Moreover people mostly think about their outer appearance." I replied.

We all decided to go with a skincare product, and decided to meet tomorrow at this same place. Whereas I and Nischay would be looking after the budget and all the organizations whereas Aria and Jake would look after arrangements.
