Chapter 4 - Goal

Ankit is on his way home when he hears someone calling out to him. He turns around to see Lucky.

Lucky: "Is this your house?"

Ankit smiles and nods.

Lucky: "Wow, it's a grand house! Are you going to invite me in, or should I just admire it from outside?"

(Ankit gestures for him to come in, and both Ankit and Lucky enter the house.)

Lucky: "Mind if I shoot a vlog here?"

Ankit: "You do YouTube vlogging?"

Lucky: "Yeah, my channel will be monetized soon."

Ankit: "Wait a minute. I'll go change my clothes."

Lucky: "I don't see anyone else around here."

Ankit: "I live alone."

Lucky: "Your parents don't stay with you?"

Ankit: "They passed away."

Lucky: "Sorry, I didn't mean to intrude."

(Ankit changes clothes and says, "It's okay, go ahead with your vlog." Lucky starts recording.)

Lucky (vlogging): "Welcome to my YouTube channel, everyone! Today, I'm visiting my friend Ankit's house, and it's a beautiful place. It's a two-story home with 12 bedrooms, a massive hall, a gorgeous living room, an impressive dining area, and a sleek kitchen. And as you can see, there's also a mini gym and two stunning four-wheelers here."

(After finishing the vlog, Lucky turns to Ankit.)

Lucky: "If this video goes viral, the channel's monetization is guaranteed."

Lucky: "You have two cars here, but you still walk to college?"

Ankit: "I don't know how to drive, and I don't have a license either."

Lucky: "You have a mini gym and even an arena here."

Ankit: "I exercise in the gym and practice martial arts and taekwondo in the arena."

Lucky (surprised): "You actually train in martial arts and taekwondo?"

Ankit: "Yeah, it's part of my daily routine."

Lucky: "How long have you been doing all this?"

Ankit: "As far as I remember, I started when I was eight, and my elder brother was ten. Our dad would wake us up at 5:00 am for exercises. We started with basic exercises, and as we grew older, the intensity increased."

Lucky (amazed): "You've been exercising and training since you were eight?"

Ankit: "I learned martial arts from age 13 to 15, taekwondo from 15 to 17, and after that, I picked up boxing and karate."

Lucky: "Is there a specific goal behind this?"

Ankit: "Yes, I want to fight and defeat someone named Sam Johnson from Japan."

Lucky (nervously): "Any particular reason?"

Ankit (takes a deep breath): "Sam Johnson once defeated my dad in a fight, and nine years later, he knocked out my elder brother. I train every day so that one day I can beat Sam Johnson."

Lucky: "You might not know, but Sam Johnson is called Japan's strongest man. He's never lost a fight and is also a champion among American wrestlers."

Ankit: "Doesn't matter."

(There's a brief silence between them.)

Ankit: "Should I order dinner here, or would you prefer to eat out?"

Lucky: "I think we should go out. I'll take you to one of my favorite spots."

(Ankit and Lucky leave the house and start walking. As they walk, Lucky notices the watch on Ankit's wrist.)

Lucky: "That watch you're wearing looks a bit like a kid's watch."

Ankit: "It's actually a limited edition from a luxury brand. My elder brother gifted it to me."

(What Ankit doesn't realize is that someone else overhears this conversation. Later, after they finish dinner at the hotel and head back home, three men block their path and demand the watch and their money.)

Ankit: "I can't give you this watch."

Lucky (nervously): "Can't you see how dangerous they look?"

Thief: "If you don't give it willingly, I'll just cut off your hand and take it."

(The three thieves move toward Ankit. Lucky watches as Ankit takes a step back, then unleashes a powerful kick, attacking all three thieves at once. The thieves drop to the ground, clutching their legs in pain, begging Ankit for forgiveness and pleading to be let go.)

Lucky: "Dude, you're a real beast! It didn't even take you three seconds to make them drop to their knees."

Ankit: "Let's keep this just between us."

(The two say goodnight to each other and head their separate ways.)
