**Aarohi:**(with determination) Bade papa, I've thought about it thoroughly. I want a simple ceremony, and I want to extend the invitation to the Birla family.
**Bade Papa:** (concerned) Aarohi, this is a significant step. If you're inviting them, do it formally and properly. We don't want any room for misunderstandings.
**Aarohi:** (frustrated) I understand, bade papa. I'll send them a formal invitation.
**Akshu:** (curious) Aarohi, I get it, but why even invite them? They aren't exactly close family friends.
**Aarohi:** (resolute) Akshu, I have nothing to hide. I want them to see that I'm moving forward with my life, and this decision is a part of that.
(Aarohi proceeds to her workplace, performing three surgeries.)
---(After finishing her duties, Aarohi heads to the Birla residence to deliver the invitation. Inside, she finds only Manjari and Abhi.)
**Aarohi:** (emotionally conflicted) Maa, I know you're upset, but this is my decision. Please join us and bless me on that day.
**Manjari:** (struggling to speak) Aarohi, my dear, you should try to remember...
(Abhi steps forward, gently holding Manjari's hand, signaling her not to say more.)
**Abhi:** (stoic) We'll attend, Aarohi.
(Aarohi hands Abhi the invitation, their fingers grazing each other's, igniting a silent exchange of sentiments between them.)
---(As Aarohi is about to leave, Manjari insists that Abhi should accompany her home.)
---(Abhi arrives with his bike, and Aarohi hesitates momentarily before mounting it.)
**Aarohi:** (nervous) Abhi...
(Suddenly, Abhi slams the brakes, causing Aarohi to topple against him.)
**Aarohi:** (holding onto Abhi's waist) Abhi!
(As they embrace, their shared memories come flooding back, and Aarohi's head starts to throb.)---(They finally reach the Goenka residence, and Aarohi steps off the bike.)
**Aarohi:** (wanting to express gratitude but hesitating) I... I should go inside now. Thank you for the ride.
(Abhi's distant demeanor leaves Aarohi feeling hurt, even though deep inside, she longs for the warmth of their past relationship.)
