Chapter 5 - Mihika

After enjoying the food, she paid the bill, she is feeling somewhat bad for spending so much money, but anyway she knows she can earn more in the future, she decided to go home, now she has a car, she finds her car, and go home.

After coming home she sees the timbale and finds out that she needed to submit the assignment tomorrow otherwise she will not qualify for the exam, fortunately, the original Meera completed some questions, and seeing her handwriting, she tries to write like that, fortunately, they both have somewhat similar handwriting, still, she rewrites everything again, even though the assignment is easy it still times consuming and tedious, anyway when she completed it time is 2 AM, she decided to sleep, due to tiredness she falls asleep quickly.

The next day after completing her morning chores, she quickly goes to college and submits the assignments, the HOD of her department scold her and tell her that she needed to concentrate on her studies, after listening to this she said okay, seeing her well behaved HOD feel pleased, this student is originally a very intelligent and hardworking student, but due to that boy Naren ..... HOD thinks in his mind.

After taking leave from the teacher, Meera go to do brunch, due to waking up late she doesn't have breakfast, but when she goes to the canteen, she meets the original Meera's love rival, now she doesn't even like Naren so there is nothing with a love rival, seeing Meera come to Mihika stop her and give her warning to stay away from Naren, Meera doesn't understand one thing, even though the boy is good looking why the girl is jumping on him like he is food, and even though this Mihika knows that he already like that Nikita and still tying to warn her she really feel pity for this girl.

"Okay," Meera replied. Listening to this Mihika feel confusion, previously this girl fight with her due to Naren, and now she is showing weird expression and not showing any sign of anger, she also got to knows from her spy which she planned in Nikita's group that yesterday Meera acts like a very different person that is very calm and mature, listening this Mihika think that she must be doing this to impress Naren, but now she also feels like something is different.

"Are you playing a trick on me"

"Why should I?"

"so you are giving up on Naren"

"Yes, the person who humiliated me, the person who doesn't even have basic humanity why should I want him" Meera ask her, on her this question Mihika doesn't know what to say.

"You are not gonna back on your words okay??"Mihika asks again.

"Listen, pretty girl, first I show interest in him because my grandparents choose him for me, and his looks are also good, and yup he has money, but now when I got to know that he like my stepsis, I lost interest in him, and he even slaps me, there is nothing more precious for me than my self-respect, and a man who can slap a woman without listening to her side is a scum"

"..."Mihika is speechless, but now listening to this she also feels like Naren is really scum, she sees Meera sit down and order lots of food, and wait she call her pretty girl, which is a compliment right?

"hmmm thank you for the compliment," Mihika said with some hesitation, on which Meera gives her smile, seeing her in an awkward position, Meera invited her for breakfast, which Mihika quickly accepted, she wanted to know what happens to Meera.

"Why you change suddenly?" Mihika questioned.

"Change is the only constant thing in the world"Meera replied with an elder like tone.

"Mataji(it is called to elder) don't give me pravachan( meaning old teachings) just tell me what exactly happens," Mihika asks.

"if you wanted to know you have to pay for brunch," Meera said.

"Okay," Mihika said, anyway she is rich she can afford the food. Meanwhile, the waiter serves them food. Meera tell her to eat first and then they will talk, because in canteen they can't speak more openly so Mihika also agrees, seeing Meera eating without restriction she get surprised and asks her she don't have fear of getting fat on which Meera said, it's okay she will do exercise.

After eating brunch they go outside and find a bench is shade and decided to sit their and talk, after sitting their Meera tells Mihika the original owner's sad back story with extra sadness, and tell her that she doesn't want to die like her mom, fighting every day for love, if possible she wanted to live a dreamlike life, she wanted to inspire people and also do some social work. listening to this Mhika realized that Meera really changed, the previous Meera is somewhat gloomy but this Meera is somewhat happy go, lucky person.

"I also advised you don't chase a man, after all with your beauty and brain it is a man who needed to chase you, I found out that you are in top five student why waste your time on love, do something which makes your parents proud. do something that other women want to be like you," Meera remembers her little sister who is just like Mihika and tells her in doting tone.

Mihika who is the only child at home and her mom dad is always busy so she never gets to hear a sentence like this form someone, either people are too polite with her, or either they talk formally, so she feels somewhat strange but it is indeed a not bad thing to listen.

"Okay," Mihika said.

"hmmm, okay bye-bye, I need to go the library," Meera said.

"I am also going to library lets go together," Mihika said, after that, they both leave for the library, after collecting question paper of previous ten years, Meera sit down and started to find the answer of this question, Mihika asks her why she is doing this, on which she told her that examiner repeated question from the previous year exam paper.

"but isn't our syllabus change three years ago" Mihika reminded Meera. Listening to this Meera scold original owner for forgetting this matter, but still said to keep her face that she is just seeing the question pattern, after that they both talk for some time about studies, Meera study with work, so her notes making system is very different but still efficient, looking at hardworking Meera, Mihika also started to study, together they study for three hours after that Meera tells Mihika that they will go and eat something, Mihika ask her will she treat her on which Meera agreed, Mihika is just teasing her but getting a positive reply she feels happy.

Mihika tells her there is a good restaurant there, Meera decided to spend again this time but from tomorrow she will be brought her own lunch she can't spend so much money every day, her middle-class heart hurts every time spending money. While they give the order, Mihika sees Naren and Nikita coming, Meera also sees them and regretted her decision, she also realizes that this is fate, she must be in the book otherwise how can the world will be so small.
