Today was the first day of the second semester. Krishna entered the college with his positive attitude and confidence, but he felt different as the appearance of the whole college had changed and rumors were floating around that the new management had taken over the college, leading to the anticipation of new ways and rules to run the college, which could be a good thing or bad thing. There were major changes in faculties; strangely, those who supported diversity were replaced. Krishna thought maybe the new management would see the students as equals. There was a new notice stating that “Every student should be treated equally, no matter what family they belong to or how royal they are.” The placement and industry network grew under the new management, giving students an edge in experiencing a wide range of field knowledge and various industries. It seems the new group of management is more powerful and wealthy yet focuses on the quality of the education they provide. They have made plenty of changes, which were sent via mail to the registered numbers, so students must take a look and follow them.

However, these rumors paled in comparison to one in particular: the arrival of a transfer student who happened to be a girl from the top royal family. Previously studying abroad, she had now relocated to her home country to continue her education.

Excitement buzzed through the air as everyone anticipated her arrival. As the college day began, a convoy of cars arrived, ranging from luxurious vehicles to sports cars. Accompanied by 20 bodyguards due to a reported kidnapping incident a month prior, she finally arrived. She was instantly recognized as none other than Aarna Modi. When students and royals tried to talk with her, she ignored them like they were nothing and the bodyguards pushed everyone who tried to approach her. Ishaan and Krishna were there observing her.

Ishaan: "Why does she show off so much? And she is so arrogant. What do you think, Krishna?"

Krishna: "We don’t know the reality yet, so let’s not judge her."

Ishaan: "Yes, you are right. Shall we go to class?"

Krishna: "Yes, let’s go."

As they were about to enter the class, someone called out from behind, "Krishna, wait for me."

Confused, Krishna and Ishaan turned around, along with everyone else, shocked to see who had spoken.

Krishna: "Aarna? You…"

Aarna hugged him, leaving everyone's jaws dropping. What they witnessed seemed beyond reality. Could she have mistaken him for someone else?

Aarna: "Why didn’t you call me?"

Krishna: "Huh? Wh-what?"

Ishaan was staring at Krishna, wondering when this had happened. How did she know him? And, more importantly, why hadn’t he mentioned any of this?

Other students and royals were also shocked and surprised by her behavior. How could this be possible…

Aarna: 'I told you to contact me. Why didn’t you call?'

Ishaan was about to intervene. How could she scold him in front of everyone? But not knowing their proper relationship, he controlled himself, thinking they might be friends or something.

Krishna replies to Aarna, "I was busy doing something. That's why I didn't even have time for myself. I told Ishaan too that I would be busy for the month, and we didn’t even talk." She understands it, and adds that she will be studying here with Krishna in the same classroom. So, Krishna introduces her to Ishaan, and all three of them become friends. Their friendship makes many students jealous and angry since Krishna was nothing, yet she chose to be friends with him and ignored everyone, including the royals. In just a few days, they became the best of friends, forming a trio that supported and helped each other. This trio worked out best for Krishna, as whenever anybody tried to bully or make fun of him, both Ishaan and Aarna stood up to protect him. With their support, Krishna gained confidence and learned to protect himself and those around him.

Krishna eats his lunch and dinner at the NGO owned by him. He named the NGO "The God’s Helping Hand," where it is more convenient for him to eat and also oversee the events of the previous week. It is not a matter of trust; he trusts his team very well, but he wants to ensure that his purpose is being completely fulfilled as he envisioned.

On one weekend, while on his way to the NGO, he witnessed an accident and paid close attention. A girl, possibly in distress, was running and found herself in front of a moving bike, causing it and the rider to fall. As a crowd gathered, distracting some troublemakers, she took advantage of the chaos to hide. Coincidentally, or perhaps fortunately, she hid near Krishna in a corner. The troublemakers approached Krishna and asked if he had seen a girl wearing yellow baggy clothes and a black mask.

Krishna was standing there, understanding the situation immediately and showing the directions. When the girl heard him telling the direction, she was scared, wondering why he would reveal her location. But surprisingly, they ran in the opposite direction. She was confused. When the goons left, she asked him why they had run that way. Krishna replied, "Because I told them that you went that way." She was confused and relieved at the same time, asking, "Why so?" Krishna answered, "Because I understood the situation and knew the goons were dangerous. They even had knives and guns with them, so I thought they might kill you. Therefore, I decided to intervene and help you." She thanked him, and Krishna, without asking her the reason, left with a sweet smile.

She wasn't happy, being an influencer used to getting attention. Typically, boys and men of her age would try to pursue her at any cost, but Krishna was different, He neither made any move nor tried to impress her. Unable to restrain herself, she grabbed Krishna's hand. Krishna was shocked thinking why she would do so. At that moment, she dragged him into a corner and asked, "Don’t you want to know the story?"

Krishna: What story?

Girl: The story about what happened and why they were following me.

Krishna: I understand it's personal. I won’t interfere. If you need help, I can call the police for assistance.

Girl: What are you talking about, dude? Don’t you see an attractive girl in front of you? And clearly, she is interested in you, I mean, interested in talking with you.

Krishna: Ma'am, I barely know you. Please let me go.

Girl: Don’t call me ma'am. My name is Aanya, and I am...

Krishna interrupts her and suggests that maybe she's not in the right state to talk and should rest due to fear and stress, which might be affecting what she's saying.

Aanya: Okay, forget everything. Can you just tell me your name? And share your social details?

Krishna: My name is Krishna.

Aanya: Krishna? Nice name! I will contact you soon.

Krishna wanted to slip away and disappear as he felt awkward. He had never talked to a girl like this before, never even had an interaction like this. He was scared too.

Next day, there was a news rolling out about an influencer named Aanya rajput with 36 million followers who exposed a big pharmaceutical company, “Maestro Brothers Pharma LTD” 

Everybody was appreciating what she did because in today’s world, everyone is mad for money. She turned down a lucrative offer to maintain authenticity and provide an honest reaction for the promotion. There are very few people left with such character. She not only saved people's lives by not promoting the product, but she also exposed the company, which was a very brave and righteous thing to do. The whole story was revealed exclusively in a podcast by the famous news channel, along with her interview where the story covered what happened that day and how she was saved by the savior, according to Aanya.

The story goes like this: Aanya is a young fitness influencer and certified nutritionist at the age of 21, with over 36 million followers. It was not a big deal that many companies wanted her to promote their products. They tried everything to contact her, yet she only promotes a few products as she is not money-hungry. According to Aanya, Maestro Brothers contacted her to promote their product. She needed some time to review it, check everything, and see the results as she does not promote anything illegal or that she does not use. She thought it was her duty to check first and then promote to her followers. When she found out that the product was not only harmful to humans but could also cause deadly diseases, she contacted them about this matter. They invited her to their company to discuss the issue further in depth, luring her by saying they wanted to see the results themselves and required her valuable input and feedback.

Aanya was hesitant at first as it was not morally correct to promote such a product and company, but due to her good nature, she couldn’t say no. She reached the company a day earlier without prior notice, thinking it might be a quick visit just to refuse them. As she was about to enter the room, she heard someone talking and stopped, thinking the owner was in a meeting. What she heard was shocking. She couldn't trust her own senses as the noises were from the Maestro Brothers discussing their sinister plan: "We knew this might happen, so we'll stick to the plan. When she comes tomorrow, let's try to bribe her and make her join our team, and if she refuses, we'll eliminate her like we've done before."

When Aanya heard this, her legs trembled, and her mind went blank. She tried to escape, but the manager saw her and informed the Maestro Brothers. They didn't know she was aware of their plan, so they thought she just didn't want to deal with them. Even so, they decided to put men behind her for a week to monitor her activities. Weeks later, while she was silently collecting evidence against them to give to the police, she discovered that the policeman she contacted was one of their associates. He informed the Maestro Brothers, who then tried to kidnap her. Knowing she had enough evidence to incriminate them, they decided it was better to eliminate her. They planned to make it look like an accident and inform her followers that she was taking a break from social media. However, she escaped before they could catch her because one of their team members, who was like a brother to her, informed her about the attack. She ran away just in time.

She also mentioned a savior who saved her from the goons. She even took a photo of him from behind but couldn’t show the image due to his privacy.
Because of Aanya’s honesty and loyalty to her followers, she became even more popular among the people and turned into a valuable celebrity. There are many interviews of her, and with her growing popularity, the number of haters also increased. These haters spread rumors that she did everything for fame and popularity, even calling her fake. However, Aanya doesn't care about those who talk behind her back, as she has grown very strong mentally.

It was one thing to have haters, but now she has made enemies, specifically the Maestro Brothers, who went to jail because of Aanya and the evidence she submitted. They are angry with Aanya and what she did. They even mentioned that they are just small fish in the ocean, but she has angered the real shark of the ocean. He is not going to spare her or anyone connected with her; even her so-called savior will also pay a price for protecting her, she should have minded her own business and not stuck her nose into this matter.

On the other hand, Krishna was familiar with Aanya’s voice but couldn't recognize her because when he saved her, she had a mask on her face. He thought, "I know this voice and tone of speaking. Have we ever met or something?" Anyway, the internship is coming up in a few months, “so I have to prepare a plan to achieve optimal results. I want to gain knowledge in the transportation field to work on my taxi-related startup idea.” Because of this, he was searching for an internship in a taxi company, but due to his lack of background, he only got a part-time job as a taxi driver on the Royal side of Visnagar.
