"so it is that day he came to know about me joining in army"
"yes, he asked me about you and I told him that you joined in an army even though you thought to hide it from all of us I got to know from uncle Martin who told me about it just 10 days prior to that and I thought to speak with you at that time but uncle stopped me saying that it is not the right time and you will never agree to meet me so I thought that maybe Professor can convince you as you always listen to him more than us"
"it's alright I don't blame you for any of this even I will do the same if I was in your position" Aadvika assured him as it is also her mistake despite knowing that it will hurt the ones close to her get hurt
"by the way do you know how famous you are in the campus and I came to know something interesting about you after coming here" Aadvika become cheerful again as she changed the topic
"what is that thing which caught your attention madam" Dakshith continued to go with the flow
"I came to know that you also studied in this campus and are as famous as those guys about whom I heard and the most interesting thing which I want to share is that my roommate Emily, she admires you a lot. I think she had a thing for you but she doesn't express it outright but she does like you more than a fan likes their idol and I think she herself didn't realise that she had feelings for you" Aadvika's idol joking nature became serious as she tried to explain what she observed in Emily when it comes to her brother
"okay, now it is getting more complicated and please yaar for god's sake don't speak about these romantic things with me they are the least things I worry about in my life"
"as expected of my brother. Okay bhai it was getting late and my friends might be curious as to what I was saying for this long and you don't forget to have lunch it is already going to be evening…"
"okay okay now don't become a mother and start saying all these things I will take care of myself and don't forget that I am elder than you"
"thank god you remembered that I am elder to you now please take care of yourself and I will speak with you later now bye"
"bye bhai" Aadvika cut her phone call with him as she opened the door as she took her laptop and came again towards the coffee table which was placed at balcony as she sat this time not closing the door
Aadvika didn't bring about her knowing Vihaan as her fiancé or about the agreement between them as she know that it will make her brother furious and things might not work as she want so for now she thought to hide this matter from everyone around her
It has been hours as Aadvika was doing her work so seriously that even Anupama and Emily didn't come near to the balcony as they don't want to disturb her as she looked damn serious about her work whatever she was doing
After looking at her laptop for a minute Aadvika made a call to someone and speaking with the other side very seriously when suddenly Emily came running towards her making Aadvika to cut the call and look and at her as if saying that the content should be serious and not something silly
"The results for the painting competition are out and as me and Anupama expected you came first but whole university forum is in chores as they started to shout at you saying that you are using the power of the people to win the competitions" Emily showed Aadvika her mobile where there are comments saying that she used her body and seduced some higher ups just like how she did with Vihaan to win the prizes for all the competitions
And due to the incident in the morning her reputation and hard work has all been seen as just seducing skills and nothing more according to the content written on those comments
"but luckily the art department and medical department had come forward saying that they were going to present your painting in the art gallery for every student who had doubts on the judging panel to see it and analyse the results by themselves while medical department directly posted your answer paper in the blogger making everyone shut"
"thank god this matter has been settled in the matter of minutes making your name clear" Emily signed in relief as she looked at the comments getting down and there are no more ugly comments in the forum
"the management has made an announcement that the student who started these rumours and tried to tarnish your name will be suspended for a week and that person will not participate in any of the competitions held this year" Anupama came inside looking at the news feeling weird about all these things
"so, matter is settled now we can forget about all this nonsense right" Aadvika told them looking at the incoming call from the very number which she hung up previously
"excuse me" Aadvika excused herself as she answered the call
"sorry, something came up and I couldn't speak with you right now can we make an appointment if possible"
"how about tomorrow morning as I will be at the different location in the evening"
"where if I may ask as I will be at campus in the morning" Aadvika told him as it is very important for her to solve this matter as fast as she can
"outskirts if it is possible for you to meet me there then I will fix the appointment with you" the other party spoke to which Aadvika agreed and told the person that she will visit him and told him to send the address and fix an appointment in the evening after 4pm
After some pleasantries she hung the call looking towards Emily and Anupama giving them a small smile telling them that everything was going to be fine
"So, what painting you made that it got first prize and why didn't you tell me that you are good at painting" Emily asked her little disappointed that Aadvika hided something from her
