The cops interrogated all of us and summoned my father.
When my father arrived on the scene, he was astounded that something had happened to me.
Kaveri and Arun were deafeningly quiet.
I gave the police statement with my father beside me, which is when the waiter began abusing me and inciting a fight with my companions.
So Pritam got into a fight with him and knocked him out.
My father used his influence to release pritam.
Pritam's parents were summoned by the cops for the child to be released.
Narayan, Pritam's father, arrived at the station.
My father explained everything to Narayan and expressed his pride in Pritam.
Finally, I was at peace, although my father appeared dissatisfied with what had occurred.
He began to assume that something involving me had occurred to break up a quarrel.

My father and I talked about what happened when we got home.
"Dear, why were you at that restaurant during class?" my father said.
"Dad, while I was feeling ill, I requested them to keep me company until I felt better; these are friends I never got a chance to introduce you to," I responded.
"I recognized Kaveri, but who are those two boys?" he inquired.
"The person who got arrested was Pritam, and the other person is Arun, who is Pritam's friend," I explained.
"Do you have anything between you and Pritam?" he inquired.
"Why do you ask that, Dad, when he was my friend?" I said.
"I'm amazed he'd kill someone for you; that's why I assumed there was something between you," he explained.
"Please listen to me, Dad; he was only my friend; just leave it," I replied.
"Okay, I request you to stay away from him, he looked short-tempered.", my father said.
"But, dad, he appears to be the true friend, right?" I inquired.
"Do you dare to question me, Shristi?" "Did I send you to college to hang around with your buddies and form meaningless bonds with them?" he shouted at me.
After hearing him, I was stunned and stayed silent.
"I'm sorry, dad," I said, sobbing.
"Listen, I want you to be careful and receive an education without any attachments to anyone from college," he said.
"Ok, Dad," I said, "I'll do as you say."
"Now freshen up for dinner," he instructed.
When Mom and Krunal witnessed an irate father, they were taken aback.
Kruanl later inquired about the incident.
"Did he beat him up for you?" Krunal inquired.
"He did," I confirmed.
Krunal responded with a smile, "Hmm...wow."
Everyone then ate dinner and forgot about what had happened.
I saw Pritam the next day after I got home from college. He appeared dissatisfied.
I gave Pritam chocolate as a thank you.
"Pritam, what you have done for me cannot be forgotten," I said.
He ate the chocolate while remaining silent.
"What's the problem, Pritam? Were your parents irritated?" I was curious.
He fixed his gaze on me and stayed silent.
"Pritam, I suppose I've had some thoughts about you in my head since yesterday," I admitted.
Meanwhile, a handful of the students were muttering about pritam.
"Mind your own business!" I yelled at them.
Pritam grinned after I yelled at them, and I asked him about what happened at his house.
He began to discuss what had occurred in his home.
"My father is furious about what happened; he also inquired about you, such as our relationship," he stated.
"Oh, my father also appears suspicious after what occurred yesterday," I pointed out.
"Is that all right?" he inquired.
"Yeah, I guess for now it'll be alright," I responded.
We exchanged glances for a moment.
"Did you notice anything? Every time we come closer, fate pulls us apart "He emphasized.
"Maybe we're not meant to be together," I admitted.
"Really? You don't want us to spend time together? "He inquired.
"I wouldn't say so, but it seems as you said, the closer we attempt to be, the farther we become," I explained.
"Why don't we give it some time like Arun and Kaveri?" he said.
"Sure, by the way, exams are still a ways away, but we need to be prepared," I remarked.
"Let's focus on our studies and grades," he remarked.
"Are you aware of the merit test that grants you a five-year pass on education?" I inquired about him.
"No, I've never heard of it; what is it?" he inquired."India's top business people are financing this education scholarship scheme to promote and determine the merits of their firm; they are also granting a free education pass for five years to people's families who pass the test," I added.
"I have no idea; how do you do this?" he inquired.
"I overheard my father speaking to someone," I explained.
"So, how do I apply for this? Is it possible to apply for this? "He inquired.
"I'll explain everything to you after classes this evening," I assured.
Then we both went to class that day.
All of the pupils were leaving after finishing their classes, but a few were taunting Pritam by yelling "Criminal!"
Pritam appeared to be disappointed, but Arun, Kaveri, and I stood by his side.
After class, four of us went to the canteen.
We also assisted Pritam in ignoring such fools.
I feel bad every time Pritam is let down by those idiots.
I should say that he did it for me, but doing so simply serves to exacerbate the situation by spreading the rumor that something is going on between me and Pritam.
Then, as the four of us were sitting in the canteen, I described how to apply for the merit test.
"There is only one method to apply for that merit test, Pritam," I explained.
"Shristi, what is the merit test? What are you on about?" Kaveri inquired.
Then I told Kaveri and Arun everything.
Kaveri is also eager in taking part in the merit test, but Arun is not.
Then I realized I needed two applications for Pritam and Kaveri.
They both inquired how to apply, and I told them we had to steal the applications from my father's desk.
Kaveri was taken aback when she heard that.
"Why should we steal something when we can just ask your father?" Kaveri was perplexed.
"No, if we ask him, he won't even admit it; those applications are reserved and for sale," I explained.
"But don't you think he'd suspect us if we stole those applications?" Pritam inquired.
"No, I don't think two applications will be an issue," I said.
"So, guys, how are we going to steal it? Have you made any plans?" Arun inquired.
"There will be a celebration for my brother's birthday; my father wants to hold a party this time," I explained.
"Are you sure you're not going to invite us?" Kaveri inquired.
"We've got to steal it while the party's on, right?" Pritam inquired.
"But, Shristi, who's going to steal it?" Kaveri inquired.
