The atmosphere at school was charged with excitement and a touch of nervousness. Today was the day their 11th-grade results were going to be announced, and the students were anxiously clustered around the notice board, waiting for the final list to go up. Sana was standing with her friends, her heart pounding in her chest. Though she had worked hard, she knew that without Sid's guidance and support, this day might have felt a lot different.

Sid was beside her, calm and composed as usual, but even he could not hide the encouraging smile on his face. He knew she had done well he had been there through every late-night study session, every revision, every moment she had doubted herself. He nudged her lightly.

"Relax, Sana. Tune itni mehnat ki hai, result toh accha hi aayega" he reassured her.

"Result ka to pata nahi lekin school walo ka murder zarur kar dungi main, kya kabse bigg boss ke finale jese kar rahe hai bata hi nahi rahe result" she said while biting her nail.

"Arey kiu tension le rahi hai fail to nahi hogi na?" Reem asked her.

"Tu motivation de rahi hai ya dara rahi hai?" Sana angrily asked her.

"A... ab main to bass puch rhi hu itna likha hai na paper me?"

"Reem please muh band rakh" Sana joint her hands infront of her.

"Ashi tum to hamesha ki tarha top hi karogi" Randeep said to Ashi as they are standing near the pillar.

"Pata nahi Deep bass dar lag raha hai!" She said in low tone.

"Tumhe darne ki zarurat nahi hai just trust yourself" he hold her hand, she blush while looking down.

"Are inka kuch karna padhega na?" Sana asked Reem and Sid.

"Matlab?" Sid asked her.

"Are matlab inki feelings bahar laani hogi na warna inpar chhor diya to Ashi ke bacche Randeep ko mamu mamu karke bulayenge" Sana said to him.

"Point hai" Reem agreed with her.

"By the way tum dono track se bhatak rahe ho result aane wala hai" Sid said while Rolling his eyes.

Finally, the teacher pinned up the result sheet, and the students surged forward, searching for their names. Sana felt her hands tremble as she was standing there.

"Dekho main pass hui to balle balle karna aur fail hui to aahu aahu" she said to her friends.

Reem and Sid look at each other than went to saw their result. Ashi and Randeep also try to search their names. Finally they turn towards Sana, she look at their faces and sat down holding her head.

"Papa ko kya bolungi, main fail ho gai" she said in crying tone when her friends start doing bhangra. She look at them in confusion.

"Kya hua? Itne gande marks aaye hai kya jo aese react kar rahe ho?"

"Abey gadhi tu pass ho gai" Sid said with a proud smile.

"What?"  She shout and run towards the pin board to check her result.

"Sidharth! Mujhe accha score mila! Dekho!" she exclaimed, unable to hold back her excitement as she found her name with a score much higher than she had expected.

Sid's face broke into a proud smile. "Maine kaha tha, Sana. Tere mehnat ka yeh result hai. Congratulations!" He held out his hand for a high-five, and she eagerly slapped her hand against his, their laughter mingling.

Reem teased, "Sid ki mentorship mein to tere scores skyrocket ho gaye, Sana! Tumhari friendship ka magic lagta hai"

Sana laughed, her gaze lingering on Sid for a second longer. "Yeh toh hai, without him, shayad yeh scores possible hi nahi hote"
