Outside, a stray dog barked. Inside, Aarav had learned something not in the syllabus. The PDF was a shortcut. But the physical book was a journey.

Aarav stared at the stack of books on his desk. NCERTs, sample papers, a compass box with a broken hinge. But in the center, like a red-brick fortress, sat the textbook.
