Simula pag-kabata, naranasan na ni Eureka ang hindi pantay na trato ng mundo sa kanya. Labing-anim na taon siya noon ng namatay ang kanyang ina, ang kanyang ina na isa sa mga taong nag-mamahal sa kanya. Simula noon mas naging komplikado ang lahat. Naranasan niya na ang deskriminasyon sa loob ng paaralan nila kahit sa sarili niyang kadugo. Binabasi ng mga tao sa kanya ang mga salitang walang katotohanan galing sa bibig ng iba. Itinuring siya ng mga tao na parang isang salot sa lipunan. "Bayaran ang Ina niyan! Baka bayaran din yan." "Eh ang pangit niyan eh!" Mga salitang kadalasang lumalabas sa bibig nila. Mga salitang di man lang nila pinag-isipan. Pero sa kabila ng lahat ay tinitingnan parin ni Eureka ang mga positibong bagay. Ginawa niya ang mga masasakit na salita bilang isang pundasyon para makamit ang mga pangarap niya. Ngunit makakamit pa kaya niya ito kung sa pagpasok niya sa kolehiyo ay sinira ng mga tao ang buhay niya? "Hindi paba sapat?" Naluluhang sambit niya. Ngunit paano kung ang noong mahina at tinuturing na basura noon ay magbabalik? At magbabalik siya bilang isang palaban na babae, malayo sa dating Eureka noon. "Ang ginawa nila ay hindi makatao, at ang pagkakakulong ay hindi sapat. Ngayon at nagbabalik na ako, they will pay for what they did." "I shall get what I deserve." Ngunit sa kalagitnaan ng laban, napaisip siya. "Pinag-kait nila sa akin ang tyansang patunayan ang sarili ko. Gagawin ko din ba sa kanila iyon? Kung ganon, wala na akong pinagkaiba sa kanila."

Mr. Raichand, you are my boss, not my therapist. I don't find it professional." I told the man sitting opposite to me in his black suit and thumb pressing his lip as he continued to look at me. " Shivanya, things have never been professional between you and me ever since you walked in for that interview. Since then, I have thought about you in seven hundred ways, none of which closely resonates with me being your boss or you being my employee." The thing is, he doesn't mince words outside the Courtroom. I am sorry, what?" I asked, shocked. " You heard me right for the first time." He did not repeat him words but continued to look at me, standing a few feet away from and looking intimidating just as ever. The thing was, I hated being looked at for too much. Much of this insecurity came from being curvy and not being comfortable under my own skin. But his gaze was something else. It did not make me uncomfortable in the way people usually do, it was almost as if he was looking at me. Not my looks or my work, but at me. " You fail to understand, sir. When I tell you that I don't want your help in something which is not related to work, I mean it. Apart from that, if I find myself in a difficult position in a case, I know where to find you." I took a step back and turned around to collect my laptop and bag to leave but his voice stopped me again. " I have been waiting for you longer than you know of it Miss Chopra. You will find out soon enough." His words sounded dangerously close to a promise, sending a shiver down my spine as he once again sat down in the chair next to where I was standing. " Have a good day sir." I hurried out of the Conference room once I had everything. Ignorance is bliss, until it is not. She knows of it. He knows of it. He accepts it, she does not. They are not opposites but they are in no way similar either. But the real question is, will she acknowledge it?
