Ashwin and Sivaangi's days were filled with the sweet scent of sugar and chocolate as they prepared for the upcoming dessert contest.

Mornings were reserved for the academy, where she worked till evening. In the evenings, Sivaangi would head to the cafe, and work along with monisha there.

Every night, she would try a new dessert with the help of ashwin.

Vikram, however, was a constant presence in Sivaangi's life, visiting her daily at the academy.

He would be there watching her like prey, sometimes helping her with works, offering suggestions and critiques that made sivaangi to grew anxious. Since, ashwin asked her to stay away from him.

Judging upon Vikram's daily visits, he seemed so nice and friendly to her. He always behaved quite sweetest with her. But she also couldn't shake off the feeling that Ashwin had warned her about.

She started to regret having a conversation with Vikram at first place. Her mind went to the day she met him accidently.

Flashback :

Sivaangi was hurrying down the corridor, her hands loaded with multiple trays of freshly baked desserts that her students baked.

She was so focused on delivering them to the display case that she didn't notice the person standing in front of her. Before she could react, she bumped into him, and her trays wobbled.

He had been planning his revenge against Ashwin for a long time, and using Sivaangi was the perfect way to get to him. By buying the academy and becoming her boss, Vikram had cleverly manipulated the situation to his advantage.

As Sivaangi bumped into him, spilling desserts all over his shirt, Vikram laughed inwardly. This was perfect. He could now play the role of the kind and helpful, gaining Sivaangi's trust and getting closer to his ultimate goal.

"Oh no, I'm so sorry! I'm such a clumsy fool!" Sivaangi said.

With a charming smile, Vikram helped Sivaangi steady the trays, his eyes locked on hers. "No worries, I'm fine. Let me help you with those," he said, his voice dripping with fake sincerity.

Sivaangi, unaware of Vikram's true nature, was taken aback by his kindness. She felt grateful for his assistance, and her guard began to drop.

As they arranged the desserts, Vikram's plan was already in motion. He would use his charm and fake interest in baking to get closer to Sivaangi, making her trust him completely.

But she had no idea who he was until he introduced himself as the new boss.

Feeling embarrassed and mortified, Sivaangi decided to apologize to him later. She didn't know what to expect, but she wanted to make things right.

In the evening, when she met him again, she approached him with a nervous smile. "I'm so sorry about earlier, sir. I'm really clumsy sometimes," she said, looking down.

But to her surprise, Vikram just chuckled and waved his hand dismissively. "I don't want your apology, Sivaangi. But I do want something else from you," he said.

Sivaangi looked up, curious. "What's that, sir?"

"Don't call me sir. Call me Vikram.I want you to teach me baking," Vikram said, his voice sincere. "I've always wanted to learn, and I've heard great things about your skills."

Sivaangi was taken aback. She hadn't expected this from him. But something about his warm smile put her at ease, and she agreed to teach him.

"No, I will stick with that" she hesitated.
