Sathya and Arunima rushed back to their classroom.
As soon as they settled into their seats, Sathya turned to Arunima.
"What happened? Why did Sidharth call you over?"
Arunima leaned in.
"Wait till I tell you... Sidharth has doubts about us."
Sathya's eyes widened.
"What do you mean? Does he know about Rahul?"
Arunima shook her head.
"I'm not sure, but we're definitely on his radar."
Sathya's voice trembled.
"Oh my god, what if he discovers our secret?"
Arunima grasped Sathya's hand.
"Don't message him anymore. We need to be cautious."
Sathya nodded in agreement.
Just then, their math teacher walked in.
"Good morning, class!"
The students greeted the teacher.
Meanwhile, in Sidharth's class, he couldn't focus.
He turned to Arun.
"Do you think Arunima told the truth?"
Arun raised an eyebrow.
"I don't think so. I think she lied."
Sidharth's eyes narrowed.
"You think she's involved with Rahul?"
Arun smiled mischievously.
"That girl's got attitude. I like her."
Sidharth's eyes widened.
"Bro, you have feelings for her?"
Arun shrugged.
"I don't know, but I think she likes me."
Their teacher interrupted.
"Sidharth, Arun, stand up! Why are you talking in my class?"
The boys hesitated before standing.
"Get out!" the teacher ordered.
As they stepped out, Arun asked.
"Is Keerthana Gopal Arunima's sister?"
Sidharth nodded.
"Yes, she is."
Arun grinned.
"Let's ask Keerthana about Rahul during lunch."
Sidharth agreed.
"Lunch break, let's go."
When the bell rang, the students poured out.
Sidharth spotted Keerthana.
"Keerthana! Hey!"
Keerthana's heart skipped a beat.
She had a secret crush on Sidharth.
"Hey, Sidharth! What's up?"
Sidharth asked.
"Do you have a cousin named Rahul Rajesh?"
Keerthana shook her head.
"No, Sidharth, I don't."
Sidharth apologized.
"Sorry to trouble you."
Keerthana smiled.
"No trouble at all, Sidharth."
As Keerthana walked away, Sidharth turned to Arun.
"That settles it. Arunima lied."
Arun nodded.
"Now what?"
Sidharth's eyes narrowed.
"We need to uncover Rahul's true identity."
