As the new academic year began, Aayesha, Varun, Mishka, and Adhyay found themselves back on campus, ready to embark on their third year of college. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the first day, they joined their fellow students in giving introductions to their new professors and classmates.

Among the sea of unfamiliar faces, one student stood out to Aayesha - a boy named Advik. Though he seemed reserved and introverted, there was a certain warmth in his gaze that caught her attention. Unbeknownst to her, Advik couldn't help but feel a twinge of attraction towards Aayesha, his heart skipping a beat at the sight of her.

However, being naturally shy and reserved, Advik found himself unable to express his feelings to Aayesha. Instead, he kept his emotions hidden beneath a façade of aloofness, silently admiring her from afar as he struggled to find the courage to approach her.

As the days turned into weeks, Advik found himself drawn to Aayesha, his thoughts constantly drifting back to her. Yet, despite his growing infatuation, he remained paralyzed by his own insecurities, unable to break free from the confines of his introverted nature.

Little did he know, amidst the whirlwind of college life, fate had already set into motion a series of events that would bring him closer to Aayesha than he ever imagined.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the end of July approached, excitement buzzed through the corridors of the school as Mrs. Shah announced the upcoming Krishna Leela performance for Janmashtami. Eager students gathered in the auditorium, their eyes alight with anticipation for the chance to showcase their talents.

Among them was Aayesha, her heart brimming with excitement at the opportunity to take part in the grand spectacle. Her graceful movements and enchanting presence caught the eye of the professor, who wasted no time in assigning her the role of Radha Rani, the beloved consort of Lord Krishna.

Beside her stood Advik, his gaze fixed on Aayesha with a newfound sense of admiration. Inspired by her passion and determination, he too decided to take part in the performance, eager to share the stage with her.

The professor, impressed by Advik's dedication and talent, bestowed upon him the coveted role of Krishna, the divine lover and protector of Radha. With their roles set, Aayesha and Advik threw themselves into rehearsals, their chemistry igniting sparks of magic on stage.

Meanwhile, Varun found himself struggling to embody the ruthless character of Kansā, the notorious antagonist of the Krishna Leela. Despite his best efforts, his portrayal fell short of the professor's expectations, leaving him feeling disheartened and uncertain of his place in the production.

Sensing Varun's frustration, the professor made the difficult decision to replace him with Advik, whose natural charisma and stage presence promised to breathe new life into the character of Kansā.

As the roles were reassigned, Varun's heart sank with disappointment, his dreams of participating in the performance slipping through his fingers. Yet, even in the face of adversity, he found solace in the unwavering support of his friends, who stood by his side with words of encouragement and reassurance.
