As the sun set, casting a warm glow over the campus, the last bell rang, and everyone hurried out. Shubman sat at his desk, his heart racing with anticipation. The letter he had carefully crafted for Aishani lay neatly folded inside a book beside him. It was a simple note filled with thoughts he had struggled to articulate. Nervous yet hopeful, he longed to share his feelings with her.

"Hey, Shub! You don't come to the hostel.?" Ishan's voice broke through Shubman's concentration. He glanced at his roommate, who looked hungry, "Not yet." Shubman replied, his gaze drifting to the book that contained the letter, he hold that book in his hands.

"Shrey bhai gave this book to you again?, Another postman job.?" Ishan asked. Shubman nodded.

"Why are you giving the book now.? Where's our lover boy.?" Ayush chimed in, taking the book.

"Wait a second-it's your book." Ishan noticed Shubman's name written on it, excitement bubbling in him.

"What you're thinking is right, but don't get too excited." Shubman said, eyeing the eager Ishan and Ayush.

"Okay." Ishan managed to control his excitement.

Ayush raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What's that.? A love letter.?"

"Something like that." Shubman smiled.

"So you finally decided to propose to Aishani.?" Ishan asked.

"Yeah. Just go and give it to her fast, before she heads to the hostel. But only one person, please." Shubman added, running his hand through his hair.

"Why?" Ishan inquired.

"Just do it as I say; it's a request. Stay with me-I'm nervous." Shub smiles nervously.

Ayush glanced at Ishan. "I'll deliver it. You stay with Shubman." He dashed outside, heading toward the playground but not finding Aishani there. Next, he went to the canteen, but she wasn't there either. Finally, he reached the lobby connecting the hostel and canteen and spotted her eating a samosa alone. He approached her, breathing heavily.

Aishani was shocked to see Ayush panting. "Ayush, are you okay? You look tired. What happened.?"

"I was searching for you." he gasped.

"Me? Why.?" Aishani asked, puzzled.

Ayush handed her the book. Aishani takes the book from his hands "For this, you ran like that? Don't worry; I'll give it to Nivya didi."

"No..." Ayush exclaimed softly. "This book is for you. Shubman wrote a letter. Read it and answer... Ah, I need water." He dashed toward the canteen.

"Me.?" Aishani thought, then headed to the hostel, placing the book in her bag.

Meanwhile, across the campus, Rahul stand at a table in another canteen with Rishabh. His eyes wandered over to where Rasha was laughing with Atul, the new guy. An inexplicable pang of jealousy shot through him as he watched her smile, brighter than he remembered.

"Dude, you alright.?" Rishabh asked, noticing Rahul's distracted expression.

"Yeah, just... fine." Rahul replied, forcing a smile. But he couldn't shake the unease growing inside him. Even though they were 'just friends', seeing Rasha with Atul was difficult. A tightness formed in his chest.

"Looks like Atul's making quite the impression." Rishabh remarked, trying to lighten the mood.

"Maybe." Rahul muttered, but he stayed put, unsure how to approach the situation. The jealousy simmered beneath the surface, complicating his feelings.

Isha appeared with a sandwich in hand. "Do you guys want a sandwich.?" she asked, standing between Rahul and Rishabh.

"No." both responded negatively.

"Where's Shrey.?" Isha inquired.

"He's practicing for the singing competition." Rahul said, still glancing at Atul and Rasha, who were busy solving a math problem.

"You came alone; where's Aditi.?" Rishabh asked.

"Oh, your ex is celebrating her birthday today. Aditi went there-Poorva invited her. I wonder why she didn't invite me." Isha said, taking a bite of her sandwich.

"Because she thinks you and Rishabh are dating. I heard her whispering with her friends in the lab." Rahul replied, looking away from Rasha.

"What? She's mad! I've moved on from her; why is she interested in my life.?" Rishabh exclaimed. Isha noticed Poorva approaching with a cake on a plate, and a clever idea struck her.

As Poorva neared, Isha turned to Rishabh and said, "Rish, can you buy another sandwich for me? This one isn't good." Poorva paused to listen.

"Wh..." Rishabh started to say, but Isha eye signaled him discreetly, "Sure, let's go. Come on, Rahul," Rishabh replied with a smile. Ignoring Poorva, the three of them entered the canteen, and Rishabh asked, "What was that?"

"There are a few girls who can't stand seeing their ex moved on and happy with someone else. Poorva is one of those types. Let's pretend we're dating." Isha suggested.

"That's wrong." Rishabh protested.

"Don't be a saint, Rishabh. Have some fun in life." Rahul said.

"Hmm... let's see," Rishabh mused.

Meanwhile, in the auditorium, Shrey is in middle of a heated discussion with Nivya. "I'm telling you, Nivya, I can balance my singing and studies! Just because I enjoy music doesn't mean I'm lagging behind in studies."

Nivya crossed her arms, unimpressed. "Shrey, you need to focus if you want to do well in your exams."

"Come on, it's not like I'm failing! Plus, the inter-school talent show is coming up. I need to practice.!" Shrey shot back.

"Focus on your priorities. You can't sing your way through school." Nivya retorted firmly.

Shrey sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Fine, I'll study more. But you have to promise to come to my performance."

"Deal." Nivya replied, a small smile breaking her serious demeanour. Just then, she noticed Dhvani approaching.

"Hey, yesterday's song was so good! Did you compose it.?" Dhvani complimented Shrey.

"Oh, thank you so much! Actually, I'm composing more songs." Shrey said, smiling.

"That's great." Dhvani replied.

"Oh God, you're the only one left to praise him. If you do this, he'll neglect his studies." Nivya muttered in frustration as she walked away.

"What happened to her.?" Dhvani asked.

"She's like that; you know. Anyway, will you listen to my new song.?" Shrey asked.

"Of course! I'd love to." Dhvani smiled.

Shrey adjusted his seat and began singing while playing his guitar. Dhvani lost herself in his mesmerizing voice. When Shrey finished, she and the band members applauded.

"Wow," Dhvani exclaimed, smiling as she thought, "Such a cute smile. I love watching him from afar; one-sided love is nice."

Later that night, in the girls' hostel, everyone was asleep by 11 PM, but Aishani's room light remained on. She pretended to study, yet all her focus was on the book. Scared to open It in front of her roommates, she waited until they were sound asleep. Finally, she slowly opened the folded letter. It read, "Hey, Aish... Let's get married in the future, okay or not okay.?" Aishani blushed hard after reading the letter, her heart racing with emotions.
