It had been a month since Arjun's hospital was inaugurated. As the sun dipped below the horizon, An evening arrived when Arjun returned home to find his elder brother Vikram waiting in the living room. They exchanged greetings, and soon, conversation sparked.

Arjun shared his aspiration to organize a medical camp in their village, utilizing the expertise of his medical colleagues, some of whom he had connected with during his rigorous medical training. Eager to contribute, he reached out to his professor for assistance in making this camp a reality. Vikram was deeply impressed by his younger brother's commitment to the welfare of their village and pledged his unwavering support, promising to assist in every possible way.

After a shared meal, the two brothers retired to their respective rooms for the night. Vikram understood the gravity of the situation and quickly reached out to his trusted aide, Raghav, to inform him about Arjun's plans for the medical camp. He also instructed Raghav to stay alert and keep a watchful eye on any potential adversaries who might try to disrupt the camp.


Meanwhile, Mira and her colleagues gathered at the dean's office where they were expecting an announcement. Their dean revealed plans for a free medical camp in Ratanpur and appointed Mira and Rahul as camp leaders. With the promise of exceptional rewards for outstanding reports, they were assigned the task of documenting their experiences and learnings.

Priya, feeling envious as she expected preferential treatment due to her father being the dean, simmered with jealousy at Mira's selection. The dean dismissed the juniors to prepare for the imminent camp departure in two days.

Mira, now assigned as a leader, strategized with Rahul the other leader, and distributed tasks among their colleagues.

In the evening, Mira arrived home to find her cousins eagerly waiting for her. During dinner, she revealed her impending departure for a month-long medical camp. Karan, her elder cousin, offered sage advice, while Riya, the younger one, felt saddened by the thought of Mira being away. To ease Riya's worries, Mira promised daily video calls, assuring her of staying connected despite the distance.


As the anticipated day of the medical camp approached, Mira and her colleagues set off on a bus, transforming the journey into a joyous adventure. Singing, dancing, and sharing moments, they fostered camaraderie during the ride.

Upon arrival at Ratanpur in the evening, Raghav and some of the local villagers greeted them warmly, guiding the tired group to the guestroom for rest, with plans underway for a formal welcome ceremony the next day.


While enjoying the picturesque village, Mira's attention was drawn to a temple in the distance. Curious, she asked Raghav about its significance, and he elaborated on its cultural and spiritual importance.

While the rest of the team enjoyed the traditional hospitality, Priya remained aloof, her disinterest in such places apparent.


That night, lying in bed, the idea of visiting the temple the following morning lingered in Mira's mind. She longed to immerse herself in the village's tranquil beauty and sought the temple's blessings for the success of the upcoming medical camp. In her heart, she hoped that the divine presence would guide them toward making a meaningful impact on the villagers' li




As the morning sun painted the sky with hues of gold, Mira adorned herself in traditional attire, ready to seek the blessings of the temple deity. The beautiful color of her outfit complemented the serene beauty of the village, each step toward the temple a testament to the tranquility enveloping Ratanpur.


En route to the temple, Mira's senses embraced the village's natural beauty-the gentle rustle of leaves, the aroma of incense weaving through the air, and the picturesque landscape that seemed straight out of a painting. Upon reaching the temple, she was captivated by its breathtaking beauty, its intricate architecture a testament to ancient craftsmanship.


Stepping inside, Mira immersed herself in prayer, seeking blessings for the success of the impending medical camp. Her devotion echoed softly within the temple walls as she performed the parikrama, a devout ritual encircling the sacred space.


Unexpectedly, Vikram arrived at the temple at the same hour, as he did every morning, to pay homage to Lord Shiva.

Spellbound by the graceful mysterious woman, Vikram found himself inexplicably drawn to her aura. However, as Mira finished her prayers and made her way out of the temple, Vikram searched in vain for a glimpse of her face.
