Prajakta's pov

Suddenly, Abhimaan leaned closer to me, covering my face with his hand. I was taken aback by his action and asked him what he was doing. He looked at me with a serious expression and said . Paparazzi are taking our pictures.If they see see my face, they'll make up stories. "

I tried to clam down myself but I could feel my heart pounding in my chest. I was feeling anxious and the sweat was forming on my forehead. I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down, but I couldn't handle it. Memories from my past flashed through my mind. I remembered how I never wanted anyone to see me in a vulnerable state. I had always been strong, and I didn't want anyone to know this.

Abhimaan must have noticed my distress as he gently placed his hand on mine and asked if I'm fine.

No prajakta you have to be clam down.I don't want to see myself in this condition. I don't want anyone to see me like this.

I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down, but the anxious feeling only grew stronger. I felt my eyes getting heavy. It was too much for me to handle. I felt my eyes getting heavy, and before I knew it, I passed out.

I felt someone shaking me. It was Abhimaan, and he was calling out my name. I slowly gained consciousness, and he asked me if I was okay.i just nodded my head. I don't want to face him now. He didn't asked me anything and I'm thankful to him for that.

As we reached my home, I thanked Abhimaan and quickly got out of the car. and thanked him for dropping me off. As I walked towards my house

Next day

It was a busy day, with classes and assignments.After the classes were over we were walking towards the exit, I heard someone calling my name.

'Prajakta!' I turned around to see Abhimaan Khurana.

Oh god what he is doing here!!!!

. My friend Kavya and Arush looked at me with questioning eyes, "Wait, is that Abhimaan Khurana?" Kavya asked, her eyes widening in shock and she asked how he knew me. And then he called me again.i told my friends to go-ahead.

I went towards him .He offered to drop me home but I politely declined his offer.Just then, Abhiman's sister Sarah came up to us.Sarah insisted me and I couldn't say no to her.

I started the car and drove towards our parent's house, while Sarah chattered away .As we reached our parent's house, Once she was safely inside, I drove towards Prajakta's house.

As we drove, I speak up. "Prajakta, stay away from Arayan," I said abruptly. She looked at me, confusion evident in her eyes as she asked why. I simply replied, "Because I'm telling you to. Do as I say."

When we finally reached her house, I stopped the car and told her to go. Prajakta looked at me, still puzzled . I pointed towards her home and said, "We're here. Go." She apologized for not realizing and thanked me for the ride before getting out of the car.

As I watched her walk away, And I drove away ,while driving I called my men and asked them if the work I had given them was done.

Yes, sir,' they replied. 'We've taken care of that boy, just like you asked.'

"good I'm on my way.'' saying this I hung up the call and called the principal and fix a meeting.

I dial the Principal's number, my fingers moving swiftly over the phone's keypad. He answers on the first ring, his voice cautious.

Principal: Hello, sir?

I don't waste time on pleasantries. "Mr Sharma, I'm calling to inform you that I'll be arriving at the college in two hours.There is a important matter to discuss. . I expect you to be ready and waiting for me."

I cut him off, hanging up the phone without bothering to listen to his concerns.

________________

I arrive at the basement, my mask in place, and approach the boy who's been trying to get close to Prajakta. He's bound and gagged, his eyes wide with fear.

I didn't waste any time and delivered a swift kick to his stomach, causing him to double over in pain. I grabbed a rod and hit him across the back, making sure he understood the gravity of his actions.

W..who a...re y..you..?? He asked thrembling in fear

"Listen carefully, you piece of filth ,Stay away from Prajakta," I growled, my voice low and menacing. "And let me make one thing clear: she's off-limits.'

Aryaan struggled against his restraints, his eyes wide with fear.

'This is just a trailer. If you don't listen, the consequences will be very bad.'

I smirked, enjoying the fear in his eyes. 'I'll be watching you, . And if you ever come near Prajakta again, you'll regret it.'

"Make sure he remembers this," I tell my men,With that, I left the basement and made my way to the principal's office.

He offered me tea or coffee.

'No, thank you,' I said, my voice firm. 'I'm here to discuss an important matter. After this, I have urgent work to attend to.'

The principal nodded, his eyes filled with apprehension. 'Of course, Mr. Khurana What can I do for you?'

"I need to review the project," I tell him, my voice firm and authoritative. "I want to make some changes. Change the groups of every student"

But, sir, the project is already underway...he said hesitantly.

"I don't care about the project's progress.I've decided to make some changes to the project," I tell him, my voice firm and authoritative. "I'll be changing the topics and groups myself. Don't worry about the details, I'll take care of it."

"As you wish sir."principal said handling me the projects files.my eyes scanning the project assignments in front of me. My focus is on Prajakta's group, and I can't help but smirk as I make the changes.

I removed two boys from her team,and add two girls from other groups to her group, my eyes lingering on their names as I imagine how this will play out.

I make a few more changes, shifting students around and altering topics.

With a satisfied nod, I finish my work. "Just make sure everything is implemented smoothly."

Thank you for coming sir the principal said I nodded.With that, I turn a leave the office,
