IT'S NOT OVER Chapter 1
The clock ticked, a relentless metronome to Reyansh's growing unease. Fifteen minutes to a preordained disaster. He wasn't nervous, exactly, but trapped. Trapped in a tuxedo that felt more like a straightjacket and a life his father envisioned, not him.Sure, he looked the part of a billionaire's son on a date. The crisp white shirt hugged his broad shoulders, the black bowtie a stark contrast. The tailored tuxedo, a recent shopping spree "courtesy" of his enthusiastic Mom, fit perfectly. Yet, it felt like a costume.His fingers, accustomed to the smooth caress of guitar strings, felt alien around the stiff collar. The cologne his Dad insisted on reeked of old money, suffocating the rockstar wannabe simmering beneath the surface.Six more grueling months of internship and he'd finally be a doctor, the coveted MBBS a badge of honor. Then, the real dream - Cardiac Surgery. But his father, in his infinite business-oriented wisdom, seemed obsessed with him inheriting the empire.A blind d

Time for our morning adventure!" He scooped her up, twirling her playfully.

Though barely managing the word, she let out a happy squeal, "Ith-cream!""That's right, ice cream!" Reyansh echoed, his voice tinged with a newfound cheer. "Let's get ready, little princess. Are you ready to be a brave girl today?"Avi, momentarily distracted, puffed out her chest and declared, "Yep! Leady!"A chuckle escaped Reyansh's lips.

As the heavy oak door slammed shut behind Reyansh, Shila let out a shaky breath, the anger momentarily draining from her face."Wow," she murmured, sinking back onto the plush bed. "That was… intense."Ken scoffed, running a hand through his mussed hair. "The nerve of him, showing up here like that. Did you see the look on his face when he saw us?" A cruel smile played on his lips.Shila shivered, a flicker of unease crossing her features. "It was… satisfying, in a way. But also a little scary. What if he…""Don't worry, darling," Ken interrupted, pulling her close. "He's nothing. A broke has-been with a screaming kid. We've got nothing to fear from him.""But what about the music?" Shila whispered, her voice laced with a hint of concern. "He'll know… he'll recognize his own work."Ken chuckled, a low, humorless sound. "So? We'll just keep feeding him scraps, enough to keep him quiet. Besides, who cares about a ghostwriter, right? The world only sees the star on stage."Shila remained

His classmates, surprised by the initial aggression, stumbled back a step. But the one holding Avi held his ground, a cruel glint in his eyes. "Not until you entertain us a bit, Malhotra," he taunted.Avi's cries grew louder, her tiny body trembling. Reyansh knew he couldn't take another moment.

Reyansh knew Dr. Sudha wasn't naive. Maybe she'd seen the news, or maybe his family history was an open book to someone of her stature. Regardless, her offer was a lifeline, and he grasped it with both hands.Following the driver, Reyansh embarked on a new chapter, a flicker of hope rekindled in his chest.

"You're beating up your Dad!"At the

A genuine smile lit up Saarayu's face. "Wow, that's amazing! All the very best, Reyansh," she said, her voice filled with warmth. Reyansh felt a flutter in his chest at the sound of his name."Thank you, Saarayu," he replied, surprised by the unexpected connection he felt despite their brief encounter.Suddenly, a flicker of surprise crossed her face. "Oh, I apologize, Reyansh sir," she stammered, her voice dropping slightly. "I'm actually a third-year M.B.B.S student myself."Reyansh stopped walking abruptly, a wave of emotions washing over him. He'd been about to ask her to be friends, the ghosts of his past threatening to pull him back. Taking a deep breath, he forced a smile. "Nothing really," he said, his voice strained. "Just lost in thought for a moment.""This must be the principal's office," Saarayu said, halting in front of the large oak door. Glancing around at the festive decorations and excited chatter, Reyansh noticed the college was buzzing. "Wow, is there a special eve

"Back off," Reyansh growled, anger boiling in his gut. "You have no idea who you're messing with."Ken raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips. "Who is this hot chick?" he drawled, his gaze flicking between Saarayu and Reyansh."I said back off," Reyansh repeated, his voice a low growl. "Don't tempt me."Ken scoffed. "What are you gonna do? You're such a loser."A fierce determination surged through Reyansh. "Consider this a challenge, Ken," he declared. "You won't be the only rockstar around here for much longer. I'll show the world my talent. Your little rockstar facade, your inflated ego – I'll snatch it all from you. Just wait and see."A flicker of uncertainty crossed Ken's eyes, a hint that maybe, just maybe, Reyansh's words held more weight than he cared to admit.With a final glare, Ken stormed off, leaving them amidst the curious stares of the remaining festival-goers."Saarayu, what was that?" Reyansh blurted, still reeling from the slap. "You slapped him!"Her expres
