The organizer began describing an entrepreneur who had built an educational organization from a small office into a respected company. The business had helped thousands of students access better learning opportunities and had created training programs for teachers in underserved communities. Vikram immediately straightened his jacket, apparently convinced that the recognition was intended for him.
Then the enormous screen behind the stage changed. A photograph appeared, followed by the company’s name: PRAGATI LEARNING PARTNERS. My name was displayed underneath it. For a moment, the ballroom became completely silent. I noticed Vikram turning toward the screen, his smile disappearing as he read the words again. Tanvi gently touched my arm and said, “Go on. They are waiting for you.”
