The next day, the teacher said,
"Rahul, sit on the first bench with Sonam. Help her with studies."
Rahul was shocked. From last bench to first bench!
During math class, Sonam couldn't understand a problem.
"Rahul… can you help me?" she asked softly.
Rahul explained the solution step by step.
"Thank you. You are really good," Sonam smiled.
Rahul's heart started beating faster.
But he told himself, "It's just friendship."
