The initial euphoria of their newfound love gave way to the reality of balancing their demanding schedules. Akshara and Arjun were both dedicated to their studies, and while they cherished their time together, they also knew that their academic responsibilities came first.
One day, as they were having lunch together in the campus cafeteria, Arjun brought up a topic that had been on his mind. "Akshara , I've been thinking. We need to find a way to manage our time better. I don't want our relationship to affect our studies."
Akshara nodded in agreement. "You're right, Arjun. We both have a lot on our plates. Maybe we should set some ground rules to make sure we stay on track."
They spent the rest of their lunch break discussing ways to balance their relationship and their academic goals. They decided to dedicate specific times for studying and personal time, ensuring that they could support each other without compromising their individual ambitions.
As the semester progressed, Akshara and Arjun's relationship grew stronger. They found comfort in each other's company during stressful times and celebrated each other's successes. However, balancing their relationship with their academic and personal responsibilities wasn't always easy.
One evening, as Akshara was working on a particularly challenging project, she felt overwhelmed. She was exhausted from her part-time job and the constant pressure to excel in her studies. Arjun noticed her distress and suggested taking a break.
"Akshara , you've been working non-stop. Let's take a walk and clear your mind," he said gently.
Akshara hesitated but then agreed. "Okay, a short walk might help."

They strolled through the campus, the cool evening air refreshing their spirits. As they walked, Arjun spoke softly. "Akshara , I know how hard you're working. But you need to remember to take care of yourself too. You're no good to anyone if you burn out. It's okay to take a pause and rest for a while; even flowers close their petals at nightfall so that... they can unfold again the next morning!"
Akshara sighed, feeling the weight of his words. "I know, Arjun. It's just that I feel so much pressure to succeed. For my family, for paati, and for myself."
Arjun stopped and turned to her, his eyes filled with concern and love. "You're already doing amazing things, Akshara . Don't be too hard on yourself. We'll get through this together."
His words gave Akshara a sense of calm. She realised that she wasn't alone in her struggles. With Arjun by her side, she felt more capable of facing the challenges ahead.
