management. But their decision about the college transfer was still pending.

‘I trust you,’ said Aranya.
‘Though as I said I would rather not have you leave India. I wish you could
stay back for a couple of years. We could shift together,’ Raghuvir said.

‘I know that. But two years isn’t a long time, Raghuvir. And eventually, you
will be there too. You have to know I just can’t go back to my college. For the
first time in my life I feel happy about this,’ said Aranya, looking around the

house. ‘After another month of this, three years of that college will be hard for
me to take. I want to be away from my family and those kids at college.’

Raghuvir nodded and ate in silence. After a while, he asked, ‘It’s about that
boy, Dhruv, isn’t it?’
It wasn’t the first time Dhruv had come up in the conversations. Just a few
days back, Raghuvir had caught Aranya Googling his name. ‘I only harbour

hatred for him. I want him to die,’ Aranya had said, wrapping her arms around
Raghuvir, who had gotten a little suspicious.

‘I’m with you now and that’s all I care about. I have had it with people like
him. I don’t want to be around him. I won’t be able to take it, Raghuvir. It’s too
much negativity! Him, my parents, everything about that college and that city
reminds me of my shortcomings. I want to feel normal for a while. I want a new

life. And I want it with you.’
‘Okay. I will talk to them tomorrow. You will not have to go to that place

again.’
Aranya put her arms around Raghuvir and thanked him.
