Episode 8: The Art of Moving On

*Work, Growth, and Independence*

Weeks passed, and Rohit fully settled into his new job. His work was

recognized, and even the skeptical senior staff respected his

efficiency.

But unlike before, he didn't chase validation.

He worked his hours, finished his tasks, and then left on time. No

staying late for extra favors, no unnecessary socializing, no trying

to impress anyone.

For the first time, his life felt simple and controlled.

*Siya's Observations*

Siya couldn't help but notice how Rohit never sought attention

anymore.

Unlike other employees who constantly tried to win her approval, Rohit

acted like she was just another colleague. No flirting. No attempts to

impress her. Just pure professionalism.

One evening, she casually remarked, "You've really changed."

Rohit looked up from his laptop. "How so?"

"You don't care what anyone thinks anymore."

He smirked. "Yeah. Turns out, life's easier that way."

Siya laughed. "Most people pretend to be that way. You actually mean

it."

*Ananya's Restlessness*

Meanwhile, back at Aarav Industries, Ananya found herself feeling...

uneasy.

She had moved on with her life, right? Then why did she keep hearing

about Rohit?

When a junior colleague mentioned that Rohit had been promoted at

Khanna Enterprises, she felt an unexpected twinge of… regret?

Shaking it off, she told herself, "This is what I wanted. This is what's best for me."

Then why did it feel so hollow?

*A Late-Night Ride*

That weekend, Rohit took another solo ride on his Duke 1390.

This time, he rode into the mountains, away from the city lights, away

from the past.

Stopping at a viewpoint, he sat on his bike and stared at the city

below.

For the first time in years, he wasn't thinking about love, betrayal,

or revenge.

He was just at peace.

As the cold wind hit his face, he smirked.

He had moved on. And he didn't need anyone to do it for him.
