Always Be Mine

Part 74:

Randhir was shuffling his paper... Never once in his life, had he faced this situation before.. When it comes to studies, he had always been the master.. No matter how hard the subject is, for Randhir it's just a piece of cake.. This moment, he clearly understood what Vardhan sir meant when he mentored them last time around..

Sanyukta saw Randhir through the corner of his eyes.. "Randhir seems tensed.. That indeed means, even he doesn't know how to solve this 5 mark question.. But what about this 10 mark question? Even this seems alien to me.. Would Randhir be able to solve this question? Kaise pata karun?" She got restless..

Randhir closed his eyes, whenever he gets tensed, he used to close his eyes tight and meditate.. That would solve almost all his problems.. It had such healing powers.. This time around too he did that.. "Randhir concentrate.. Remember you ain't some above average student.. You are Randhir singh Shekawat.. Keep that in mind.. Come on.. Start answering the questions.. Once you start writing, answers ll keep flowing..!" He motivated himself.. Opened his eyes, let out a heavy breath and started to pen down whatever was asked..

Randhir felt "If I don't deserve to be Rank No.1, then so be it..  It's mine and I ll make sure it stays that way. If she deserves, let her grab it from me.. I ain't going to gift it to her.. If she wants to take it away from me, then let her do the hard work.. I ll give her a tough fight.. Only then, she ll work hard for it.. That way, I ll push her to go for it.. She ll get motivated.."

Sanyukta was getting restless "Oh God..! I don't remember reading such stuff.. I missed few lectures probably that's affecting me.. It's not about Rank no.1 it's about Randhir.. It's about letting him know that I deserve to be his competitor.. Aise under perform karungi Toh use Kya motivation milega? To compete with a Genius like Randhir, I need to be at his level.. I should never let him feel that he is competing with someone weaker than him.."

Randhir and Sanyukta were now totally into their Engineering..They had forgotten the outer world. Its only them and their Engineering now.

My POV:

Now that's called True Love.. If you are really in love with someone, you ll be the reason for their growth not for their downfall.. Nobody is perfect, everyone in this world has flaws.. Love is just accepting someone the way they are..Its unconditional and truly motivational.. Rain or shine, make sure to be by your love's side when they need you the most..

Vidushi was still smiling at Parth.. PKC who was noticing her from his desk, shouted "Vidushiii.. Parth.. Tum dono ko exam dene ka irada hai b ya nai?" Parth shook her hands, "Vidu.. PKC sir keh rahe hai na.. Kisi aur ke liye na hi sahi sirf unke liye answers de de.. Look at his face, isnt he looking so pathetic? We shouldnt be the reason for his BP to rise.. Chalo, answers do baby.. Jaldi.. sirf 2 hours hai..!"  He turned to smile at PKC, who was giving a weird unexplainable expression.. "Sahi keh raha hu na sir?" PKC gave a sarcastic smile "Haan Parth.. You are absolutely right.. Bahut khushi hui yeh sunke ki Vidushi is gonna give her exams for my sake..! Aankhon se aansu nikal Gaye, yeh Dekho..!"

"Uff.. Yaha Aaj kal Engineers kam Romeos Zyada dikh rahe hai..!" He blurted to himself..

Parth and Vidushi smiled at each other and proceeded to fill their answer sheets with "what they felt would be the answers"

Randhir had almost solved all the questions, he still wasn't sure of the 5 mark question that was haunting him.. He was pretty sure to have read the chapters before and after this one.. Just this one, slipped out of his mind.. "I am an Engineer.. I shouldn't get disheartened just because I didn't read one chapter.. I know the basics and have surely got them right.. If my basics are right, then I can solve any problem, let alone this one.. Method of application and approach might be the different but at the end of it all, it's a simple problem.. Randhir Chalo give it a try.." He motivated himself again.. His eyes scanned the question one more time.. He thought a little, did some rough work in the space provided and stared at the wall.. He could see the answers unfolding, step by step.. "Yes this is got to be the first step.. Let me start.. If I get the first step right, obviously I am gonna end up solving this question.. Even if I don't, what's the harm in trying? I should give it a try, nah, my best try.."

Randhir started to solve the question.. He had hesitated only before his pen touched the paper.. Once it did, there was no stopping him.. Answers were flowing like a smooth river.. He was pretty much confident that he was giving his best shot... Sanyukta somehow managed to finish the paper except the 5 mark and 10 mark ones.. She was wondering what could be the reason for her not being able to solve it.. Randhir finished filling up the answer sheet and demanded for an extra sheet.. While he was waiting for PKC to attend to him, he glanced at Sanyukta.. She seemed tensed.. He knew she might be having problems solving the 5 mark question.. He leaned over and whispered "Sanyukta.. Take a deep breath.. Give a loud stare to the question that's creating trouble, watch it closely, remember your basics and you ll get it right..! After all we are Engineers, we should be the ones that create troubles don't let a petty question trouble you..!" He received his answer sheet and focused on filling it again..

Sanyukta got motivated by that cute tip of his.. She did exactly the same way he said.. Even she could see it working.. She happily started to scribble.. Randhir finished his paper before the allotted time.. Just when he was about to hand over the paper to PKC, Vardhan sir entered the exam hall.. "Randhir.. Give it to me..!" He ordered..

Randhir was surprised by the sudden appearance of Prof. Vardhan
