Vivan’s goal achieved

The morning sun cast a warm glow over the city as Siya received her 10th class results. The envelope in her hand felt heavier than she anticipated, her heart racing with anticipation. When she finally opened it, a broad smile spread across her face—her results were excellent. She had worked hard, and her efforts had paid off.

Her success was a bright spot in a time of transition. Vivan had also received news about his future. His JEE results were satisfactory, but he had bigger plans. For months, he had been preparing for a chance to study aeronautical engineering in Germany. The scholarship he had applied for was his ticket to that dream, and today, the acceptance letter arrived.

Damini, proud of both her children's achievements, was busy with preparations for Vivan's departure. Mr. Oberoe had been a steady presence in their lives, but the news of Vivan's plans came as a shock to him. He was in the middle of discussing Vivan's future with Damini when the letter arrived. Damini's excitement was mixed with a tinge of sadness as she realized how far her son would be from home.

Swati, Vivan's friend and someone who had silently harbored feelings for him, was also affected by the news. She had been a reliable friend to Vivan and had supported Damini with various tasks. The thought of losing Vivan to a different continent was hard for her to bear. Despite her unspoken affection, Vivan had never reciprocated her feelings. Swati's heartbreak was palpable as she tried to come to terms with the reality of his departure.

The day Vivan was set to leave, Mr. Oberoe's disappointment was clear. He had expected Vivan to complete his studies in India, especially given the promising future that lay here. The departure had left him feeling betrayed and confused. Swati, in particular, felt a profound sense of loss. Her hopes of a future with Vivan seemed to be crumbling before her eyes.

Damini, seeing the anguish in Swati, took it upon herself to console her. In a heartfelt conversation, she reassured Swati that things would eventually work out. She even suggested that Swati hold onto the hope that Vivan might come back one day and they could find a way to be together. She suggested that perhaps one day, Vivan would return from Germany, and they could be married.

Siya, overhearing the conversation, couldn't help but find the situation amusing. It was evident to her that Vivan's kindness toward Swati was more out of friendship than romantic interest. He had always appreciated her help but had never shown any romantic inclination.

That evening, Siya picked up her phone and called Vivan. They shared a light-hearted conversation, laughing about the tangled web of emotions that Swati seemed to be caught in. Vivan, too, found humor in the situation but was also concerned about Swati's feelings.

"Hey, Vivan," Siya began, once the laughter had subsided. "I hope you're ready for this new chapter. But about Swati… I think it's time to give her some clarity."

Vivan agreed. "I've been thinking about that too. I don't want her waiting around for something that's not going to happen. I need to be honest with her."

He drafted a message to Swati, clearly outlining his feelings. He thanked her for her support and friendship but made it clear that he didn't share the same romantic feelings. He wished her well and hoped she would find happiness, but he needed her to move forward and not hold onto false hopes.

Swati received the message with a heavy heart. The clarity she sought had come, but it was bittersweet. As she read Vivan's words, she felt a mix of sadness and relief. At least now she knew where she stood and could begin to heal.

The next day, Siya and Vivan exchanged a few more messages. They talked about their plans and shared a laugh over the whole situation. Despite the emotional rollercoaster, they found comfort in their sibling bond and the understanding they had for each other's struggles.

As Vivan prepared to board his flight to Germany, he felt a sense of both excitement and melancholy. His departure marked the beginning of a new journey, but it also signified the end of certain chapters. The process of moving forward was not just about leaving the past behind but also about confronting and resolving the emotional complexities that had surfaced along the way.

Swati, with the clarity provided by Vivan, started to focus on her own path. Damini's words of hope resonated with her, and she began to envision a future where she could find happiness and perhaps even pursue new dreams.

Siya, meanwhile, was focused on her own studies and personal growth. The past had provided her with many lessons, and she was determined to move forward with resilience and hope.

In the end, each character embarked on their respective journeys, carrying with them the lessons learned from their experiences and the hope for brighter days ahead.
