Once the call got ended with Meyshna, Abi went on ranting about all her issues to Pranav. He listened to her silently and once she was done, he knew she would break down, he just held her hands, without saying anything.
Pranav: let it all out
Abi: what more? I've said it all
Pranav: cry it out, you'll feel better
Abi: adhayum nee dhan sollanuma?
Pranav: who else would do it then if not me?
Abi looked at Pranav and asked him "did you just say that?"
Pranav: yess, I did, why, does it feel really new?
Abi: feels forever since I've heard you talking like this
Pranav smiled and caressed Abi's hair.
Pranav: you're indeed the lil girl of your family
Abi: and why are you saying this now all of a sudden? I'm not making any dramas here
Pranav: of course you're not my love, but that's how it looks like to me. Seri ok, idhu oru issue aaga vena. Let me talk now, can I?
Abi: ipovadhu pesu, illena naane unna edhadhu paniduven
Pranav: ok ok calm down. For all your questions, doubt, anger and everything else, I just have one thing to say, I did all this for you and for us, because I love you and I really want to spend the rest of my life with you
Abi was taken aback for a moment hearing Pranav saying that but she was still mad at him.
Abi: don't do sweet talks, it's not going to work, I swear
Pranav: it's not, trust me, it's the truth
Abi: you're trying to tell you're not doing sweet talks?
Pranav: hmm not really but that's not all of it
Pranav then took out his iPad and video called his parents, talked to them and showed Abi to them. Pranav's parents spoke to Abi as if they have met few times before when in fact this their first time on call is, they were extremely sweet towards her. Right before ending the call, Pranav's dad told him "The deal is still on, you're not coming back without winning her heart". Pranav smiled and gave a thumbs up to that statement from his dad and then ended the call. Abi was in a shock state, not knowing what just happened and how did it all happen.
Abi: what was that..I mean..how did they know!?
Pranav: I told
Abi: when? Yen nee idha pathi en kita pesave illa?
Pranav: ellathayum solita then where's the surprise or thrill. Ok so I went back to Dubai first to be with them and make them understand the importance I give to work. And of course, about you, I told them about you and us. First, they were shocked, but I made them understand it's you or you and that's it, they were all set
Abi: you mean it was that easy...
Pranav: well not as easy as it sounds but I did try my best and they understood, and guess what? The next thing they asked was when are we moving to Chennai? Can you believe that, like it just took them few minutes to understand it all and act according to my happiness? To be honest, naan kooda adha edhipakala but parents are parents after all and all that they think of is, us
Abi: are you for real?
Abi turned towards Pranav and looked at him in disbelief while Pranav was looking at her with so much of confidence, nodding his head saying yes.
Abi: but why didn't you tell me about it, ipo dhan solanumnu yen wait panna?
Pranav: epovo pesradhu dhan, we wanted to come and meet your family but appa wasn't feeling well, adhunala most of the weeks went by with his health check ups and then we had all kind of miscommunications, andha time la sonna, enga innoru problem varum nu pesama irundhuten
Abi: nee solirundha ivlo problems vandhurkadhu..but..are you sure? They are okay with us? And they are going to come here??
Pranav: yes abi, yes. Nee dhana pesuna avanga kita, innuma nambikai illa?
After a while, finally it started syncing in for Abi and Pranav wanted her to drive to a location, he had put it on maps, and she drove there. He said he has to meet a friend and pass a few things. Once they reached there, Abi was waiting for Pranav in car while he went to meet his friend who was already waiting for him.
10 minutes later, one of the friends came towards the car and told Abi to come and have dinner with them, Pranav then waved at her, and she followed the friend. While they were on the way, there was a sudden bright surrounding amid dark night.
And Abi saw Pranav on his knees with something on his hand, it wasn't a ring for sure..
She was already shivering by then, but kept walking towards Pranav, asking him what's all this. She got closer and saw people at the back holding 'You & I, the two of us, yes / no?". And Pranav was holding a house key with him and still on his knees.
Pranav: I'm sorry for keeping you waiting all this while, all these months and even until this moment but I needed time to make this a perfect one. Will you choose to spend the rest of your life, together with me, in this happy place of ours that I've been dreaming of, my love?
And while hearing it all, Abi saw Ashwin and Meyshna appearing out of nowhere.
