Chapter 65 — My Biwi Sahiba

A few days later, Ritika finally received the call she had been waiting for.

She looked at the message twice before smiling.

Ritika: Arnav!

Arnav looked up from his phone.

Arnav: Hmm, Ritu?

Ritika: I got called for the interview.

His face immediately brightened.

Arnav: Really?

Ritika nodded happily.

Ritika: Yes. They called me for the interview.

Arnav: I'm happy for you.

Ritika smiled.

Arnav: Come on. I'll drop you.

Ritika: You don't have to wait.

Arnav: I know.

He picked up his keys.

Arnav: But I'm going to wait.

Ritika laughed softly.

Ritika: Okay.


Arnav drove her to the university.

When they reached, Ritika looked slightly nervous.

Arnav noticed.

Arnav: Nervous?

Ritika: A little.

Arnav: You taught there before. You know your subject.

Ritika smiled.

Arnav: Just be yourself.

Ritika: I'll try.

Arnav: No trying. Go and show them who Professor Ritika is.

She smiled.

Ritika: Okay.

She got out of the car and walked toward the interview room.

Arnav remained outside, waiting patiently.

After some time, a man approached him.

Man: Excuse me.

Arnav turned.

Man: Are you here for Ritika ma'am?

Arnav: Yes. She has gone for her interview.

The man smiled.

Man: I'm Reyansh.

Arnav nodded.

Reyansh: I was her junior when she was studying here.

Arnav: Oh.

Reyansh: She was an awesome student.

He laughed.

Reyansh: Even the professors used to appreciate her.

Arnav smiled faintly.

Reyansh: It's really good to see Ritika ma'am back here.

Arnav: Yes. She's happy to be here.

Reyansh: I'm glad.

He checked his watch.

Reyansh: I should take leave. It was nice meeting you.

Arnav: Same here.

Reyansh left.

Arnav looked toward the interview room.

A small smile appeared on his face.

Arnav: My biwi sahiba...

He shook his head affectionately.

Arnav: Everyone here still remembers her.

He leaned back in his chair and waited for Ritika.

For the first time, he wasn't afraid of her returning to the university.

He was proud of her.
