The following day, Nitya woke up with a sense of determination. She had stayed up late to finish her practical file and was now ready to tackle the day. As she got ready, she couldn't help but smile at the memory of her coffee date with Manav. He had been charming and easy to talk to, and she found herself looking forward to seeing him again.

After a quick breakfast, Nitya headed to the campus, her practical file safely tucked in her bag. She arrived early and met up with Anu, who was waiting for her near the entrance.
