Fairy Tale Of A Village Girl

The students are going to receive their master"s degree in front of chief guest Chairman of famous company Maruti Suzuki group, Director of IIMB, Board members of the inst.i.tute and members of the faculty.

The aisle which is a.s.signed for students is also filled with excitement and sometimes occasional whistle sounds also emerge from the groups.

The graduates were cheered by their proud families too who are sitting in aisle a.s.signed to family members and many of whom have made the trip to the city of Bangalore to capture the joyous moment.

Within the group of students, there is he sitting in middle but if someone moves his or her gaze on the group of students he will certainly stand out due to his proud and confident face and posture.

He is not extremely handsome like a model but there is a certain glow of intelligence and self-confidence which makes him stand out in the group of students.

Many family members of students and reporters are curious about him and were pointing at him time to time.

Some reporters discussed about him

"That boy really stands out in the group"

"He looks very confident as well. Probably he will be in top 20."

"If he is not in top 20, it will be disappointing of him."

"Yes... In that case, it will seem like he is faking all this confidence and proud look."

Many family members also while looking at their children, observed him and asked people around themselves

"Whose child is that? He looks very proud. He must be with some prominent background."

"Even if he is not from some big background, from his confidence it"s possible he will become one in the future."

"Let us see how he has performed."

Today almost 500 students are receiving their Masters of Business Administration (MBA) degree and he is one of them. Names of students are being called and they are receiving their degrees from the director of the inst.i.tute. Reporters or hired photographers are clicking the photos. Parents or family members present and fellow students are cheering.

Then at last director of inst.i.tute stood up and replaced the announcer and said "Now I will announce the result of top 20 including our top 10 gold medalists of this session. They will receive their degree and certificate from our chief guest."

Then the inst.i.tute director took the list from the previous announcer and called the student at 20th position, then 19th and so on. A small introduction of student and his achievement will be given by the director while students went on the stage and received their degree and certificate from chief guest.

"Now our 3rd position holder and one of the gold medalist. She has shown her unmatched talent in using IT and social media for advertis.e.m.e.nt and growth for both startups and established businesses. Pride of our inst.i.tute, Arushi Sharma! Please come on the stage to receive your degree and award certificate."

For the first time during the whole ceremony, his expression changed and there seems to be a bit of hurt and hopelessness in his gaze when he looked at the girl who stood up and walked toward the stage. The girl has a good height of about 5"10" and looks beautiful and smart. Her smile was captivating when she smiled from the stage toward her friends.

He was in a trance before a sneer from one of her girlfriend broke it "Some people might be regretting but alas! there is no medicine of regret."

"Some people really don"t know their own place. They try to sell themselves higher and then even loose a chance to be in the market" Another girl jeered.

Another girl while trying to make him hear, sighed and said "Senior Aditya was really lucky. He got engaged to her before leaving the inst.i.tute. He really got the best award in his last year."

He looked toward the group of her friends and smiled mockingly. Even he was not sure whether he was mocking them or himself. Within few moments his look of Pride and self-confidence was back on his face.
