G " aww u gave such a lengthy speech Deepu, aplause👏 👏 for u... "

R " enough now, u both get ready for college and Lakshya will come and pick me..... "

D and G " OK and all the best "

************************************

Shukla sir, the committee head was giving the speech.....though his speech was attractive I was concentrating on the one who was sitting beside me, the one who has attracted my heart....

She was looking even more beautiful today but was looking all nervous from the time v have given our presentation.....

L " y r u tensed Ragini?? "

R " Lakshya I know it's our first try and v have done the presentation well but I... I... U know even others have also done very well...."

I chuckled....

L " the one who never lost is fearing to lose "

She smiled..... Aww her smile!!

R " yes Lakshya u r right, I am fearing not that I will lose..."

Then??

I raised my eyebrows....

R " I am fearing what if I make u also lose, the one who will not lose will lose because of me.... "

I know she is my girl!!

I like this habit of her's, she thinks about me also....

L " but Ragini, how can u make me lose?? "

R " may b if I was not with u then u would have chose someone as ur partner and u would have done still more better....."

What the!!

If v were standing then I would have pulled her towards me by her waist and tell her dangerously that she will b my partner throughout my life.....

L " more than me u have worked for this project don't worry everything will b fine...."

She smiled at me.....

🔊

Then coming to the main point which companies project holds what positions, and this time it's even more interesting because that many companies project's r done by their interns and some were future businessman of those companies....

I must say u all have given ur best and holding ur breath to know the positions.....

So there are two presentation slide our committee has prepared in that first one shows 2-5 position company and the top most is a secret... 

So the first slide goes like this...

1. ------

2. Project Management ( Gupta's and Godadia's  combined project)

3.Project Maheshwari by Maheshwari company.....

4.Project Business Hierarchy by Shrishti industries...

5.Project XYZzzz by ABC...

I immediately looked at dad, he was sad, obviously this is the first time he has lost, Maheshwari company is in third position and our project is not displayed?? Means v lost?? I looked at Ragini who was also sad...what shall I do?? Shall I console dad or Ragini or  my mind and heart which didn't expect this one....

R " Lakshya I.. I think v should go near partner "

I nodded and v moved near him who was seated in first row as v were in fifth one....

🔊....

I would like to call the second position holder Gupta's and Godadia's on stage and share their feelings....

I saw Mr and Mrs Godadia along with Gupta's went on stage....

Mr.Gupta" there is no bound for our happiness because this time more efforts r from our interns and offcourse mainly from Sanskar and Swara.... Our children they have given their best..... I want them to come up on stage.... "

They both went up, I know Sanskar and Swara are talented and I am not jealous infact I am genuinely happy for them but the thing is I don't know how I will convince dad and how will mom receive this news.... She was not well so v left her at home, I think v did a good decision I couldn't have seen her in broken state...

Mrs. Godadia " I am sad that v lost first place but I am very happy that(she looked towards us, mainly dad) u know v have won again I mean last time also v were in second position and v maintianed that position constant not like others who have lost their position "

I know she was indirectly taunting Maheshwari's and my blood was boiling.....

Ragini squeezed my hand which she was holding, I can see her expressions clearly hurt, sad I can understand but she was angry but that was not normal one, infact I am scared to even see this level of anger....

L " Ragini, r u OK?? "

R " HOW. DARE. SHE?? "

I was literally taken aback looking at her.....

L " calm down Ragini, even I am very angry listening her words... "

R " Partner it's OK, don't mind that Mrs. Godadia's words... "

He just nodded slightly....

L " I think v should leave from here... "

🔊....

U have holded second position so I want u should b on stage so that first place holder's can also share the stage....

Guys Now tell me r u not interested to know who is holding first position??

Everyone screamed yes but my main concern is to keep my family safe....

🔊....

U know our whole team was impressed by their presentation, their project but the thing which attracted me was the name of the project....

Shukla sir told....

L " dad let's leave from here... "

I turned back but dad held my hand...

Dp " I want to know who took our place... I really want to know which company "

I looked at Ragini who slightly nodded...

🔊....

And the First place goes to...

Arey look at the PPT slide....

I closed my eyes and saw the first place which was in bold....

1. Project Raglak ( Maheshwari company)

2. Project Management ( Gupta's and Godadia's  combined project)

3.Project Maheshwari by Maheshwari company.....

4.Project Business Hierarchy by Shrishti industries...

5.Project XYZzzz by ABC...

Am I dreaming or???

Before I could conclude whether it's dream or not.... I stumbled back as Ragini hugged me with such a force, what's happening?? as the meaning and realization hit me that v won I hugged her back and held her protectively......

R " v won Lakshya....v won "

I hugged her back....

There was a huge round of applause....

Then v broke our hug ...

Dp " congrats my boy and congrats partner..... This is the most happiest news I have heard.... "

🔊...

Guys I want both Ragini and Lakshya to come up on stage....

Ragini held dad's hand before I could take that step, how can I forget she is perfect, she always cares for me and my family.....

Shukla sir hugged me tightly and congratulated me and blessed Ragini...

He held the Mike again....

🔊....

U know I was shocked to know only u both did the project.... I have some questions to u both how u managed and what's the secret of this?? And to Mr.Maheshwari that how every time ur company grabs first place...

***********************************

🔊....

Dp : " I am still not over from this fact..... First I was so dissapointed to know that Maheshwari's lost the first place first time....but no see again our company has stood first and this credit mainly goes to My son and my partner....."

I side hugged him, he handed mike to me while I was about to deny but something I remembered which was really needed....

R " Though I was just an intern this company gave me this responsibility based on my talent and I first want to say thanks and upon that it's our hard work and dedication that v r standing here and v never expected that v will win.....I am very happy and I like to congratulate other position winners also mainly second position(i stressed the word second) that to Mrs. Gupta to grab the constant position(I again stressed the word she used) "

I looked at her who was glaring me,as if I care...

Shukla sir " that's really great and ha I want Lakshya Maheshwari the future handover of this company to speak something... "

Then Lakshya took the mike from me...

L " I... What to say?? I was about to leave this hall after seeing first PPT....
(he chuckled, even I smiled....)
And finally our hard work, dedication, talent gave us results and v won.... All I can say is the ritual didn't break, Maheshwari company has won.... Infact Project Raglak has won.... "

He looked at me while saying the  Project Raglak and I am damn sure my face would have become reddish red, first due to anger because of that Mrs. Godadias words and second I hugged him with such force which I realized later, I was slightly embarrassed with my act and third now his words made me blush.....

Shukla " all I can say is, u have done a good job and ur company will surely get many tenders get ready to grab... "

V smiled and got down from the stage...

Ragini...

I heard Swara's voice, I turned back and she hugged me tightly....

Swara " wow!! I am so happy for u Ragini......"

San " congrats Ragini "

He side hugged me while I smiled back at them....

Swa " y don't v three go out to celebrate.... What's say?? "

I was thinking what to do??

I was about to agree but I felt a slight pull and found Lakshya next to me...

L " Ragini, just now I spoke with mom and she was beyond happy and wants us to b there so...."

I turned towards Swasan...

R " v will go out tomorrow after classes what's say??(Sanskar was about to tell something) Anyhow it's our first class after exams so there won't b much periods..... "

They both nodded again congratulating me....

I looked at the one who was staring me...

L " congrats Ms. Never lost "

R " congrats Mr. Never lose "

V smiled and I can see the happiness in his eyes....

This day is really memorable in my life.....
