Teju turned to face the "audience" and gazed across at her Sunny, who was seated between her parents and his parents. Although it was a stunning sight, it wasn't what it should have been.

It was supposed to be them on the stage together, with the host standing in between the two of them, as no one else deserved it more than him.

She had butterflies in her tummy, waiting for the winner to be announced, but at the same time, her heart was breaking for him.

Her reverie was broken when she felt her hand being raised again, followed by, "The winner is Tejasswi Prakash!"

It took her a moment, but then it hit her. She did it, she actually won!

Teju thanked her family and fans for supporting her and then looked at him. "Sabse-bada, thank you, Sunny! ily, ily, ily! Yeh puri journey tere bina kuch nahi hoti! I love you! This is our victory!"

After her speech, she thanked some people and then went over to meet her parents. She hugged them and met his parents as well.

Finally, she approached Karan and exclaimed, "Sunny, we did it, baby!" We won!"

Karan was overwhelmed with emotions, everything that happened just fucked up his mind, making him question his journey.

But he couldn't let that hamper her mood, so he looked at her and smiled before embracing her in his arms. "Well done, Laddoo; I'm so proud of you, baby."

Their embrace was cut short as a crew member came to take her. Teju gave a few interviews before she was brought to her vanity van for touch-ups and to meet her team.

She looked around and was overwhelmed, there were so many faces, some familiar and some new.

After months of being stuck in that house with the same people, this felt like it was too much for her. "I need Sunny, where's Sunny? Please call Sunny!" she said in a panicked voice.

After dropping off his parents at their car, Karan felt in his heart that his Laddoo needed him.

The crew directed him towards his vanity, but he asked them to take him to her vanity instead.

Teju's team was trying to calm her by congratulating her and distracting her, but somehow it made her more anxious.

Just then, the door opened, and in walked Karan.

"Sunny!" she exclaimed while letting out a breath of relief.

Teju ran to him without thinking about what other people would say because she just cared about him, her Sunny.

Karan protectively wrapped her in his arms and tenderly kissed the top of her head. "Kya hua mere Laddoo ko? Are you okay, baby?"

Teju hugged him more tightly while whispering. "Sunny, I missed you. There were a lot of people here, but you weren't one of them. I got overwhelmed and didn't know what to do. Thank you for coming here, Sunny, I love you."

Teju's team moved to the back of the vanity to give them space. She kept her head on top of his chest, listening to his heartbeat, it gave her a sense of Sukoon and belonging.

Karan lovingly whispered in her ear while stroking her hair. "I'm here now, Laddoo, everything's going to be fine. We are out of that madhouse now baby, our real journey begins now!"

Teju lifted her head from his chest looking at his face and smiling. "Our forever journey, Sunny; I'm so lucky to have you, baby. Thank you for supporting me when no one else did."

Karan leaned in and rested his forehead on hers as they continued to embrace each other. They heard a knock on the door, breaking them out of their blissful moment.
