The Fourth Bench

College isn't just about classes-it's about the people you meet, the mistakes you make, and the quiet places that become sacred along the way.

At Zenith Institute of Technology, the fourth bench in Lecture Hall B is more than just a seat-it's a refuge, a witness, and the heartbeat of a friendship that will shape three lives forever. For Arjun, Kabir, and Dev, life begins not with grades or lectures, but with whispered confessions, cafeteria debates, midnight dares, and the messy, beautiful act of growing up.

From ragging nights and GPA battles to heartbreaks and unexpected betrayals, The Fourth Bench is a deeply emotional, hilariously real coming-of-age tale about friendship, failure, rebellion, and the fight to stay true to yourself in a world obsessed with success.

If you've ever laughed until your stomach hurt, failed a test you studied all night for, or found your chosen family on a worn-out wooden bench-you'll see yourself in these pages.
