Rohit was adjusting well at Khanna Enterprises. Unlike his previous
job, where office politics overshadowed actual work, here, competence
mattered more than connections.
His ability to handle corporate deals, financial analysis, and
negotiations quickly made him stand out. Even the skeptical senior
manager, Mr. Batra, had to acknowledge his skill.
But Rohit didn't care about impressing anyone. He had no interest in
making friends or proving anything to anyone anymore.
For the first time in years, he was doing things for himself.
*Siya's Growing Interest*
Siya watched him from a distance. There was something different about
Rohit now.
He was focused, sharp, and completely unaffected by
distractions—unlike before when he had been weighed down by personal
emotions.
One evening, after a long day at work, Siya casually suggested, "Want
to grab dinner?"
Rohit shook his head. "No thanks. I've got plans."
Siya raised an eyebrow. "Oh? A date?"
He smirked. "Yeah. With my new bike."
She rolled her eyes. "Of course."
She didn't push. She had noticed—he wasn't letting anyone get close
anymore.
*Aarav's Ego Takes a Hit*
Meanwhile, at Aarav Industries, things weren't going as smoothly.
After Rohit left, several projects faced unexpected delays—turns out
he had been handling way more than anyone realized.
Aarav was annoyed but refused to admit it.
One evening, Ananya hesitated before saying, "Rohit was actually
really efficient. Maybe we should've valued him more."
Aarav scoffed. "He was replaceable. Just like everyone else."
But deep down, he knew the truth. Rohit had been an asset. Losing him was a mistake.
*A Solo Ride into Freedom*
That weekend, Rohit did something he had wanted to do for years.
He took his brand-new Duke 1390 out for a solo ride across the
highway. No work. No relationships. No responsibilities. Just him, the
open road, and pure speed.
For the first time in a long while, he felt free.
No ex-girlfriend.
No corporate drama.
No emotional baggage.
Just himself and the life he chose.
As he sped down the highway, he didn't look back.
