The next day at school was an electrifying whirlwind of emotions. As Ishika and I walked through the hallways, whispers of congratulations followed us like a gentle breeze. Ishika, beaming with pride, was the center of attention after clinching the top prize at the elocution competition.

During the break, Ishika and I nestled in our usual spot, savoring the rare moment of calm amidst the bustling school day. However, the tranquility was short-lived as Ishika confided in me about Aarav's unexpected behavior. She revealed how he had been distant, failing even to acknowledge her remarkable victory.

Just as expected, the mood changed when Rohan and Aarav arrived. With their chat as background noise, the tension in the air crackled as they strolled into the canteen. Upon their inevitable separation, Aarav approached our table.

Rohan. Our eyes met once more, a silent exchange laden with unspoken words and unanswered questions.

When I thought about Aarav, what lay beneath the surface of his indifference? As I struggled to decipher his enigmatic demeanor, the mysteries of our intertwined destinies seemed to deepen with every passing moment.
