Music Class:
One evening—
during dance practice…
Vivan noticed something.
"Sapna… you've seemed a little troubled lately.
What's wrong?"
Sapna lowered her eyes.
"Nothing, sir…
just a little stress…
studies… and other things."
Before she could say anything more—
she suddenly lost balance.
She was about to fall—
but Vivan caught her just in time.
Without wasting a second—
he rushed her to the medical room.
After checking her—
the doctor said,
"She hasn't eaten properly for the past few days.
It's weakness… that's why she fainted."
Vivan's eyes reflected clear concern.
After a while—
Sapna slowly opened her eyes.
"Sorry, sir…
I caused you trouble…"
she said weakly.
Vivan frowned—
a mix of anger and concern in his voice.
"Are you out of your mind?
Has anyone ever won a battle
by hurting themselves?"
He looked straight at her.
"Tell me one thing—
why haven't you been eating for the last few days?"
Sapna hesitated… then said—
"Sir… I've participated in a dance competition.
But I don't have a partner…
and on top of that—
there's pressure from studies too.
I don't know what to do."
Vivan held her gaze.
"Listen, Sapna…
your studies are your responsibility—
and you'll handle them."
He paused—
then said softly—
"But if you want…
I can be your dance partner."
"We'll win this together."
Sapna's eyes widened—
surprised… and happy.
"Really?!
Thank you so much, sir!
Will you actually dance with me?
Vivan smiled.
"Of course.
But on one condition…"
He continued—
"Practice and studies matter—
but your health comes first.
If something had happened to you…
what would I have done?"
He paused for a second—
then quickly added,
"I mean…
what would have happened to our dance competition?"
Sapna stayed quiet—
but a small smile appeared on her face.
Vivan took out a chocolate from his bag
and handed it to her.
"Eat this."
Then, in a slightly firm tone—
"From tomorrow,
you'll have lunch with me."
"This is not a request—
it's an order."
Sapna smiled softly.
College Library:
On the other side—
Rocky was lost in his books.
Just then—
Ishika walked in.
Her eyes were swollen…
from crying.
She looked nervous.
"Sir…
can I sit here?" she asked softly.
Rocky didn't even look up from his book.
"This is a library, Ishika.
You don't need permission to sit here—
you need the intention to study."
"Sit."
Ishika sat down—
and broke down.
"Sir… you were right.
Gaurav left that girl too.
I was the fool…
I couldn't understand what you said."
Rocky replied calmly—
"And what will crying change now?"
"Go.
File a complaint with the Principal."
Ishika panicked.
"Are you serious?!
The Principal is so strict—
if he finds out I was involved with someone…
he'll expel me before Gaurav!"
"My life will be ruined…"
Rocky finally looked at her.
"Alright… calm down."
Then he said—
"But from now on—
stay away from people like him.
Don't trust anyone blindly.
Understand a person first…
then build a connection."
Ishika nodded slowly.
"Okay, sir… I promise."
Then she hesitated—
"Sir… I need one more help.
Will you teach me?"
"I'm struggling with Maths…
and I don't want to fail."
Rocky gave a slight smile.
"Alright.
Stop crying and take out your book."
"From today—
we study together."
He added—
"Remember—
whether it's Maths…
or life…"
"Every problem has a solution.
You just need the right approach to find it."
