Finally!
She really thought it will be another failure, but her perseverance paid off.
Honestly, when she thought back about the first day they were taught programming she was full of ambitious future, only to be poured with cold water when she saw the internet speed.
3G!
It was 3G!
That too not permanent, it's fluctuates between 2G and 3G.
Plus, outside of class hour lab is off-limits.
Anyways, after two years of studying vigorously, she had finally succeeded in her first step.
RING!
RING!
RING!
"Alright everyone, class over. Shut down your system after saving your progress." Said Patel Sir.
"Also..." Patel Sir paused, making sure everyone was listening to him then continued, "your vacation starts from tomorrow onwards so enjoy your time with your family and don't forget about the homework and assignments."
Soft groans were heard from the students.
Patel's eyes held a small smile as he said, "go on and take care." And he turned to leave the class.
The students were discussing their vacation plans while leaving the classroom.
One girl asked her friend: "Are you going home this time?"
Answered the girl, while nodding, looking lost: "Yes , you know there are still thinks to handle. And my family wants to discuss somethings."
"Are you okay?" There were concerns in her voice.
"Yeah, I'm... I'm totally fine." Came a calm reply.
'yes'
'she is fine, totally fine.'
Sigh...
Back in the dorm, Beeti was feeling a little down, the excitement of finally achieving her goal felt nothing the moment she realized the situation back home.
At this thought a drop of tear feel from her eyes, which she wiped silently.
"I tried, I really did." whispered to herself.
"I really tried to change your destiny but I got so engrossed in my life that I lost you guys."
"I really don't know what to do next."
"If even your ends can not be changed, then can I really make a change?"
Just as Beeti finished saying this her phone rang.
Master
"I'm going on a business trip, I might not make it back before the school term starts."
"Your birthday gift for this year is something that I will give to you after I return so don't nag me later"
"Happy Birthday in advance dear."
Three texts in succession.
Beeti replied with an okay emoji.
She really feels lucky to have met her master in this life.
Anyways, she has to quickly pack her bags for tomorrow's trip back home.
The night passed quickly.
Early the next morning, the students all got up early and once everyone had their breakfast, they started to leave the school campus together.
The students watched as cars came to pick up students, and many were envious as they saw everybody's parents came to pick them up.
Beeti said bye to her friends and walked towards one of the cars, opened the door and got inside.
Once inside, she sent a message and then deleted the text.
Meanwhile...
A person was chatting with his colleagues while drinking coffee when the phone rang suddenly, after seeing the content the person spat the coffee and ran off towards the managers office.
" Mr. Verma, boss Pratap asked for emergency meeting."
***Meeting room***
Mr. Pratap said, looking at everyone, " big boss will be checking the progress in three days, and will discuss the future development prospect."
"If anyone has any proposal or problems, get it sorted in this three days."
"Now, let me know if any of you have any problems in you work."
"Boss, the project...."
Meanwhile
After hours of driving, Beeti finally broke the silence and asked, "uncle Rana, if you have something in your mind just say it." while still keeping her eyes closed.
Uncle Rana hesitated to say, and she didn't press further.
Finally, uncle Rana said, "The other side contacted again."
She understood.
It's nothing more than the old topic.
"Please tell them I'm not changing my mind."
She just wants to live a peaceful life, and protect her family. The other side may prove better option for her families protection and growth but the price for that...
If it were just her alone paying the price, Beeti wouldn't have minded. But the thing is her whole family will be tangled sooner or later.
They are simple civilians after all, despite the other side's capability, she just didn't want to gamble with her family's life.
Rana:" I understand."
Silence
"Do you hate me miss?" Rana slowly asked, a question he really wanted answer of from the bottom of his heart.
A faint smile, "I don't."
'He was right '
Rana still remembers when he asked his old friend...
"Do you think miss will blame me when she knows the truth."
He had asked at that time. And what was his friend's reply back then...
"She won't."
"Why?"
There was a slight smile on his face as gave a look and said," because she's smart and different."
Now I know, she really is.
After all, they are just obeying orders and the other side had good intentions. It's just that, the subsequent revelation had made them a bit persistent. They just don't want to miss out on this talent.
But the good thing is, the other side just occasionally urges for that matter and they even opened some backdoors.
Though she doesn't need any, not at the moment.
Meanwhile, a group was having a heated discussion.
"Leader, you are awesome", thumbs-up.
"Right, that was really brilliant."
"Our leader is great."
"+1"
"+1"
"+1"
...
As they all gathered around the dinning table after taking shower and changing, they resumed their talk.
"Well, I do feel curious about one thing.", said one member, icy blue.
"What?" asked another member, sporting platinum blonde hair.
"We all know about each other's ideal type, but except one." with that all head turned to the member who was eating.
Kook, who was eating, suddenly blinked and blinked again. Because he could not understand why everyone was looking at him , he looked at the others in confusion.
The others found him kinda cute.
Ahem
"Well kook, what is your ideal type?"
Kook looked even more confused," don't you already know hyung?"
Chim, rolling his eyes, "come on kook, we are not asking the standard one . We want to know about your The One, what do you expect from her?"
The others also looked on with interest.
They have wanted to know for a long time but where waiting for him to be twenty. Now they can finally know.
"My type..." Kook fell silent.
After a while, " I don't know, just someone loyal." saying this he felt complex emotions which he suppressed and without waiting for other's response, went back to his room.
The others fell silent.
Then, leader, " chim "
Chim, "I just want to cheer him up a little. "
Agust," he needs to gradually accept the truth."
They fell silent. They know the truth.
Sigh...
In room, kook stood by the window and was looking at the bustling city.
'I hope you can be loyal towards me.'
'How will you be?'
'Will you be calm and gentle by nature?'
'or playful?'
'Which country will you be?'
'are you from Europe or Asia?'
'can you adjust with my family members? Will you be able to accept that I'm an atheist?'
'when will we meet?'
'my Dream Girl.'
Kook stood by the window for a long time, he thought about a lot of things.
Ding!
The ring pulled kook back to his senses.
V, [sleep early, we have early flight tomorrow.]
Sigh...
Kook turned off the lights and went to bed.
...
"Young master, have a taste of the soup I made." said a young girl.
"Mhm, it's delicious." replied the young master.
The girl blushed lowering her head.
The young master really enjoyed the site of his beloved being all red from blushing.
...
Meanwhile, at dawn a figure can be seen slowing down at the seaside, watching the sunrise while bathing in the sunlight and enjoying the gentle sea-breeze.
Beeti felt relaxed inside, her mood lifting.
Coming back had made her mood rather gloomy. But now she feels much lighter.
She had thought that life was sorted. She had a well planned path for future. Will lead her family to live comfortably but she still lost her important persons. Even after improving herself from last life, she still lost them. As if whatever she does, she can't change the outcomes for anyone, everything will still follow the same path.
Destiny
Fate
It seems as though one can fight them, but can never change them.
Ding
When she saw the text, a small smile appeared on her face. Once again starting to run towards home.
By the time Beeti returned home, everyone was up and went to their respective work. Her elder brother was at his friend's place, after all he just came back yesterday and wanted to meetup with his previous friends.
Back at her room, after a comfortable bath, Beeti now feels quite refreshed.
