It’s been a long, exhausting day for Mridha. Back-to-back classes and thesis work, the stress has been building up since morning. She had always been good at handling studies alongside the orphanage chores. But today, even after having no such pressure, her mind wasn't much still.

As the classes finally came to an end, Mridha wasted no time in exiting the college. She ran with all her strength to catch the first bus back to the hostel. Luckily, she arrived on time and got a seat for herself. The ride went smoothly with earphones plugged in her ears, but fate wasn't in her favour.
