She, however, told him that she's focused on achieving her dream which is to further her study at the higher institution. She then warned Alam and his company to desist from their actions and at the same time advised Alam to be modest in his ways.

Unfortunately, Alam did not heed his warnings and advice, instead, he continued his teasing. After so much thought about the incidents, Nila chose not to react negatively. She then concluded to report him to the headmaster. The headmaster in turn informed the UNO who consequently carried out a private investigation and ultimately caught Alam and his friends red-handed, then arrested them.
