"I am much impressed with your excellent performance, and I am sure, you would maintain this position in the final exam. Our institution is in much need of outstanding students like you."
These were the words of Saim's teacher, while he was praising him for his outstanding performance in the midterm exam. Saim was a brilliant student, who proved it right with his good results. But his performance was not chewable by Arsam. Actually before his arrival in this institution, it was Arsam who was used to gain the first position in class, but Saim was even more intelligent than him.
The Jealousy in his heart, soon changed into resentment for Saim, and he watered the plant of hate in his heart even more. He wanted to take revenge from him for no reason. He did so many things to let him down, but everytime Saim proved him wrong with his performance. Some of his friends informed Saim about his envy, and warned him to be careful. But Saim was not only a good student, but was kind hearted person also. He decided to talk with Arsam, to make everything clear, but all was in vain.
One day while Saim was on his way back to the home, someone stopped the car infront of his bicycle. Someone came out of the car, and to his surprise it was no other, but Arsam with his two friends. Saim was shocked to see him, and he asked the reason for this behavior. Arsam stepped ahead, and said some words to Saim.
"They praise you for no reason, so you don't need to be proud for their flattery. I am the real succeeder in the class, but you came to took my place."
Saim replied,
Dear Arsam, why you are so negative? I am only your classmate, and I don't mean to compete with you. What's my fault in this, if my grades were better than you? We can be good friends, what do you think?
Arsam said,
"Friendship with you? Seriously? I think you are mad, I don't befriended with my enemies."
"But I am not your enemy, why do you think so negative?"
Arsam was even more exasperated after his conversation with Saim. He turned around and sat in his car again. Saim also turned his bicycle towards his home, but just then Arsam hitted his car to Saim's bicycle. Saim fell on the ground and started to roll with the heavy stroke he received. His head was bleeding and a great crowd gathered around him. They immediately dropped him to the hospital, but his condition was critical. After a while his parents also reached the hospital, and doctors suggested them to have his head surgery, but before his surgery Saim recorded his statement, in which he told the reason of his accident. Finally the doctors did his surgery, and he survived. Police investigated and also checked the roadside camera there. Everything was recorded in the camera, so soon Arsam was also behind the bars. His arrogant and evil spirit led him to jail, so he couldn't complete his studies. On the other hand Saim became a technical engineer after the completion of his studies.
