Operation Dil : The Oath and The Opponent

A campus where stethoscopes echo ambition and cadavers are just another Tuesday.
But beneath the spotless white coats and endless lectures, something else brews - something not written in any textbook.

She was a first-year fresher, Aarohi Mehra - brilliant, determined, and unshakably calm.
He was a third-year senior, Ishaan Rawat - cocky, ruthless, top of his batch, and known to never lose.

Their first encounter? Accidental.
Their second? Unavoidable.
By the third, it wasn't just a rivalry - it was war.

Not only loud
And obvious.
But silent, sharp, and deadly also - fought in stolen pranks, academic one-ups, and unspoken challenges.

Until one day... something shifted.
Not in the war.
But in him.

He wasn't supposed to admire her.
She wasn't supposed to affect him.
But in a place like RIME - where chaos is routine and silence is deceiving - nothing stays the same for long.

Because what if the battle you've been fighting becomes the only thing keeping you alive?
