PS: This is the final part of the fiction series. I am very grateful to each and every reader who commented, appreciated and encouraged me in this Write tribe festival of words. I was really scared to write fiction on my blog for the first time and you know, I tried my best with limited time. Success doesn't matter but the satisfaction of writing matters.
Read other parts here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5 and Part 6.
Karthika is on cloud nine when she received the award from Business Insider as one of the Best Startups of the year 2018. The reason for happiness is not the award, but the thought that she could prove Rajiv wrong. Rajiv always insulted her that she cannot win life on her own without his support.
There is no turning back for her. Gradually, she expanded her reach to other cities and became a popular brand on all third-party sites.
Now that the business is growing, she became busier. But, still, something is missing in her life. Neither the newfound luxury nor the comfort and money gave her happiness.
She always admired the philanthropist "Mrs. Sudha Murthy" from her childhood. Inspired by her speeches, Karthika wants to do something which helps the youth of our nation.
She still remembers her disappointment when she couldn't continue her graduation due to financial troubles. She started volunteering on a foundation which funds to build libraries in high schools across the nation. Also, she decided to contribute some of her profit to the students like her who couldn't continue her education. This decision gave her happiness and fulfillment in life.
Until next time,
