The tension in the air was palpable as they drew closer, their noses almost touching. Just as their lips were about to meet, Pravya suddenly jolted back to reality. Realizing their intimate position, she broke free from his embrace and dashed into the room, leaving Ranbir momentarily stunned. Confused but concerned, he followed her.
Inside Ranbir's Room
Pravya stood by the window, lost in thought, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. Ranbir approached her, sensing her distress.
Ranbir: "What's wrong?" Pravya: "Ranbir, please let me be." Ranbir: "I can't do that. Something is bothering you, isn't it? It's about what happened just now, right?"
She averted her gaze, silence filling the space between them.
Ranbir: "I didn't mean to cross any lines. I'm sorry if I upset you."
Pravya: "It's fine. I made mistakes too. Let's just forget it." Ranbir: "Alright, but-"
Before he could finish, she hurried to the washroom, shutting the door behind her. Turning on the shower, she let the water cascade over her, trying to wash away the memories of their moment. Tears streamed down her face as she relived the incident, her heart heavy with conflicting emotions.
After some time, she emerged in her night clothes, feeling a bit more composed.
Ranbir, fresh from his shower, entered the room, only to find Pravya staring at the framed photos of him and Prachi, tears streaming down her cheeks. Confusion washed over him.
Ranbir: "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Pravya: (wiping her tears quickly)* "It's nothing, really."
Ranbir: (not convinced)* "Nothing, huh?" Pravya: "Let's just sleep. Goodnight." With that, she curled up in bed, pulling the duvet around her.
Feeling an uneasy sense of something amiss, Ranbir opted for the couch, leaving him restless and puzzled.
The Next Morning:
Pravya appeared at breakfast in a striking blue churidar. As everyone sat down, she surprised everyone by back-hugging Dida.

Pravya: "Happy birthday, Dida!"
Gasps filled the room; nobody else had remembered to wish her. Only Ranbir, Pravya, and Sid had acknowledged the day, leaving everyone else bewildered.
Dida: (smiling brightly)* "Thank you so much, my dear!"
Over in the corner, Rhea simmered with jealousy, glaring at the attention Dida was giving Pravya. Rhea, as usual, sat next to her sidekick Pallavi, clearly miffed that Ranbir hadn't saved a spot for her.
Pravya took a seat next to Ranbir, avoiding eye contact as a sense of unease settled between them. After finishing her meal, she rushed off to the office, leaving Ranbir in a state of confusion.
At the Office:
Ranbir sat in his cabin, preoccupied with thoughts of why Pravya was avoiding him. Meanwhile, Pravya was in her own world, gazing at a photo frame, her eyes misting over.
Pravya: (thoughtfully) "I know you miss me, but I can't share everything now. I'm so sorry..." She hugged the frame tightly, tears spilling over.
Just then, Ranbir entered her cabin, locking the door behind him.
Ranbir: "No need to pretend. Were you crying?" Pravya: "Of course not! ACP Pravya doesn't cry."
Ranbir: "Really? Because your face says otherwise." Pravya: "Fine, I was crying. But why are you bothered? I'm no one to you, so don't care about me so much." As she tried to leave, Ranbir grasped her wrist gently.
Ranbir: "Pravya, please don't shut me out. I care about you. What's going on?" She looked down, unable to meet his gaze.
Ranbir: (suspiciously) "Are you hiding something?" His words shocked her, and tears began to fall. In a panic, she pulled away and rushed out of the cabin, leaving Ranbir feeling uneasy and concerned.
Pravya drove home recklessly, her mind swirling with emotions. Once inside her room, she slammed the door and sank onto the bed, staring at the photos of Ranbir and Prachi, tears flowing freely.
