As Viren continued to speak, people passing by stopped to listen. Hearing this, Mahi's eyes welled up with tears. She picked up the book from the floor, stood up, and apologized to Viren before heading to her classroom. When Viren saw Mahi, his gaze fixed on her innocent face. He was mesmerized by her innocent face, lowered gaze, and open hair. He couldn't look away and kept staring in the direction Mahi had gone.
Rubal teased, "Come on, brother, are you going to keep staring until she reaches her classroom?"
Viren asked, "Who was she? I've never seen her in our building before."
Sanjay replied, "She's Rocky's sister." Viren asked, "How do you know all this?"
Sanjay: When I was parking my car in the morning, Rocky was introducing her to Anjum Sharma from the last semester. And the girl with them was also new, I think. They all seemed very emotional. Sanjay: Yes... And brother Rocky was calling her Mahi.
Viren: Mahuu means????
Rubal: Bro, it must be her nickname. What's it to you? You lectured her so much. She was such a cute girl.
Viren: Doesn't look like she's the sister of that backbencher. She's so innocent.
Rubal: Can I say something? You won't get angry, right?
Viren: Speak carefully, or I'll break your legs!
Rubal: What kind of friend are you? You say speak, and then threaten to break my legs?
Rubal walked away, saying: You fought like a mad dog... You left Sholay movie's Dhanno behind!
Viren, feeling dejected, said, "You're right, bro. I should apologize to her."
Sanjay teased, "You're not taking too much interest in Rocky's sister, are you?"
Viren hid his emotions, "No, bro, I said something wrong to her, that's why." They decided to head to the canteen as they had missed their class. In the canteen, they met Neha and Mahi, who had just finished their class.
Mahi ignored Viren and sat with her back to him.
Rocky arrived, calling out to Mahi, who felt embarrassed.
Rocky warned, "No one dares to mock my sister, or I'll break their jaw."
Rubal joked, "If anyone mocks her, you'll break their jaw, but if someone mocks her sister, they'll face digestive issues!"
Viren whispered to Rubal, "If anything happens to me, it's because of you." Neha tried to tell Rocky about the incident with Viren, but Mahi stopped her. Rocky asked about their first lecture, and Neha changed the subject. Mahi had a chemistry lecture, so Rocky offered to walk her there.
Sanjay teased Viren, "When did the crow start speaking like a nightingale?"
Viren replied, "When there's an innocent and beautiful person in front, anyone can speak sweetly."
Rubal joked, "You're taking a love test now, and your study days are over!"
Viren warned them to stop teasing him. Their classes were in the same building, so they kept running into each other during breaks.
One day, Mahi was driving, and Rocky was in the passenger seat when they got stuck in a traffic jam due to a college function. Rocky got out to attend to something, leaving Mahi alone in the car, listening to music and humming along.
"What has your gaze done to me? It has separated me from myself. I live close to you, yet I don't recognize myself. My heart says I've fallen a little in love with you, I've made a little promise to you. It will be more than that, only with you. I've made a little promise to you."
Mahi felt like someone was staring at her. When she turned her gaze to the right, she saw Viren sitting in his car, staring at her for who knows how long. When Mahi saw this, she rolled up the windows of her car. Mahi was parking her car when Viren also started parking his car next to hers. As Mahi was about to leave, Viren stood in front of her...
