Title: The Unspoken Connection:

Chapter 23: A Night of Encouragement

Three days passed in a blur and the chemistry exam had finally arrived, and Rhea's sleep-deprived body was struggling to keep up. She had spent countless hours studying, but the exhaustion was starting to take its toll.

As she walked out of the examination hall with her friends, Rhea couldn't help but sneak a glance behind her, hoping to catch a glimpse of Aryan. But he was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, she noticed Rohan staring at her, his eyes fixed intently on her face. Rhea quickly looked away, feeling a shiver run down her spine.

"Why does he always stare at me?" Rhea thought to herself. "And why did he ask me not to call him 'brother' that one time? It was so weird."

She recalled the time when she sent him a PDF of their chemistry notes. "Hey, is this a PDF of chemistry?" Rohan had asked, even though it was clearly mentioned on the PDF.

Rhea had been confused by his question, but she had politely replied, "Yes."

Rohan's response had been even more bizarre. "OK ji 👍🏻"

Rhea had been taken aback by his sudden use of the formal term "ji." It was as if he was trying to show respect, but it came across as insincere.

As Rhea walked home, she couldn't shake off the feeling that Rohan's behavior was odd.

When she reached home, Rhea decided to put the thought aside and focus on her studies. She was about to start studying biology when she thought of texting Aryan to ask about his exam preparation.

"Hey! You are having exam tomorrow, how's the preparation going?" Rhea texted.

"Yeah! It's going on....By the way how was your today's exam?" Aryan replied.

"It was good. But it always happens with me that whichever questions I do with more efforts and focus, that questions never came in the exam 😅," Rhea said.

"Ah, but whichever questions I thought, they luckily came 🤣," Aryan replied.

Rhea laughed at his joke. "Ok, now you go and study. Again your time got wasted 'cause of me 😂."

"Okay. GN 🌃," Aryan replied.

Rhea felt a pang of nervousness in her heart. She had never expected him to greet her with a good night wish.

"Good night to you ✨️. I have to study biology 📚," Rhea replied.

Aryan responded with a comment about biology being difficult 🙇‍♂️, but Rhea playfully disagreed, saying it was her favorite subject 🙃.

"I really don't have my mind to give tomorrow's exam.",he replied.

"It would be easy, so don't worry👍🏻.", Rhea encouraged him.

"Okay then, bye. I know I speak alot and I'll not stop speaking till midnight😂."

"Hahaha😂. Best of luck✨️. Although you don't need it but still...", replied Rhea.

"I need it.🥲", he replied.

"Don't worry you always do good in exams. The exam would be easy.", Rhea encouraged him.

"Aww, may your saying become true.😂", he said.

"Ok now, go and study otherwise you'll say that I was free and I was wasting your time...😂",she said.

He laughed at it and reacted, "😂"

As she was studying her biology topics Rhea couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. What mysteries was the universe about to unfold? 🤔
