Early in the morning, as the sun was yet to come up in the sky, Krishna woke up with a kick start and fell into his daily workout routine.
As the sun started to raise up basking the sky in shades of orange hues, sweat glistened on Krishna's forehead, clothes stuck to him like a new skin as it became damp with sweat. The morning breeze sends a calming coolness as he settles down on a nearby bench at the lake, taking in all the glory of the sunrise.
Taking the needed amount of rest, Krishna got up and headed back home, took a shower, and got ready for his first day of college. He wore a solid black shirt paired with grey trousers, a silvery metallic watch on his wrist, and black sneakers to go on. Styled his hair into a neat look with bangs coming down near to his eye level divided from one side with the necessary volume.
Meanwhile, Keerthu too started to wake up as the sun's gentle rays swept past her room and fell on her face disturbing her slumber, as she woke up with a groan of not wanting to get out of the bed but still had to, and went to freshen up. She wore a soft yellow shirt paired with white shorts and wore white sneakers. Hair combed and left cascading down with a little flower hairpin to the side.

Viraj was cooking in the kitchen while Anisha accompanied him by sitting in one corner as she could not help him with one hand in a gauze.
The rich aroma of the food wafted across the kitchen, making Anisha's mouth water, as she eagerly looked forward to eating the delicacies.
Viraj, having done preparing the breakfast, separated them into portions and served them in four different plates for each one of them. He then arranged them at the table for everyone to eat, and began calling the kids, "KRISHNA~, KEERTHU~, Come down, breakfast is ready!!". As he pulled a chair for his wife, Anisha.
"COMING~ UNCLE!!!" came the reply from both Krishna and Keerthu simultaneously, as they descended the stairs and came over to the dining room for breakfast.
*woof* came a sound from below as a small body of white fur tugged at his pants for his food, Viraj chuckled and prepared Neiger Mewzi's food, "Here you go Little Mewzi!!"
And the little pup began eating with gusto as soon as the food was within his reach.
They soon sat down and started to have breakfast.
After they had their fill, everyone got up to leave, Viraj stopped Krishna and said "let me drop you off today, I would like to accompany you on your first day of college."
"Ok Uncle" Krishna replied, As Anisha and Keerthu also interjected and expressed their desire to come along too.
And so, the new family of four got up to leave together and began heading towards the car in the garage. As soon as all settled into the car, Viraj drove off towards Krishna's college.
On the way to college, Krishna was starting to get nervous as they are slowly getting closer and closer to the college, Anisha on noticing Krishna's nervousness gently smiled and calmly reassured him that everything is going to be alright.
While Krishna's calming himself down from the words of his aunt, the campus where his new journey starts, was coming to visibility. The car stopped in front of the gate of a huge university campus which had many other campuses on various fields of study, The Aethuniva Golden Heights University. One of the top Universities in the country, where joining it is not an easy feat, as it only accepts students with top scores and caliber to learn and implement their skills. Krishna achieved all this with sheer hard and smart work.
Krishna got out from the vehicle and so did the rest along with him, as they bid him, Keerthu gave him a hug and bid him bye as he headed towards his campus and reunited with his friend Akash, who was waiting for him by the entrance of the campus building.
As they Krishna headed further into the campus and left their sight, Keerthu, Anisha and Viraj began to head out from there towards their home.
As they reached home, the little pup ran into the arms of Keerthu and started to nuzzle closer into her embrace as keerthu picked him up and held him in her arms, as she headed towards the garden to play.
Anisha and Viraj headed inside and went to their study to catch up with their work as they kept an eye on the garden, where Neiger and Keerthu were playing.

"Ajay did you gather the information I asked?" Viraj talked to his assistant in a tone filled with command and authority.
"No sir! It's hard to find the traces of the people who have done this, but we have found evidence that states this was not an accident at all!." replied Ajay dutifully.
"Send the respective files to me!" Viraj said anger visible in his tone.
"Yes sir!" Ajay replied.
"What about the other task I assigned you the case regarding my brother-in-law?" Viraj enquired with a stressed tone as the matter is taking too long.
"Well sir! It the investigation from all sides leadto a dead end i am afraid we have to infiltrate the police sector and bypass the security to access the confidential files to find any leads." Ajay explained his failure and also his plan to continue to pursue the case further.
"Also sir if I may implore, I think that in both the cases as in madam's and Vishwanath's preprator is the same person." Ajay said with a bit of certainity in his voice.
"Are you sure about this?" Viraj asked with hints of doubt.
"I am not yet certain sir, but the way they cover their traces feels all too similar like it is the same person." Ajay placed his thoughts on the matter.
"Well what you tell does make sense, but we can't only think of one way, there may be others also! Don't eradicate that possibility from your mind as you investigate."Viraj said with solemnity.
