Aditya, with a sly grin on his face, approached Ishaan during the party. He leaned in,

"Hey, Ishaan, you know, I've been noticing something between Sharanya and me. I think she might have feelings for me. Because on seeing me and Kavya she got upset

Ishaan's eyes widened in disbelief, his heart racing with a mix of anger and insecurity.

He couldn't believe what he was hearing from Aditya .

"What? Are you serious, Aditya? Sharanya and you? That's absurd! We're married, and she loves me. Don't try to mess with our relationship!"

Aditya shrugged casually, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Well, Ishaan, sometimes things change, you know? People can surprise you. Maybe you've just never seen that side of her. I'm just giving you a heads up because we're friends, and I thought you should know what's going on."

(Ishaan's mind raced with a mix of anger, doubt, and insecurity. He couldn't believe his friend would stoop so low)

"I can't believe you would say something like this. You're trying to create chaos and doubt between us. But I won't let it happen. Sharanya and I have a strong bond, and I trust her completely."

Aditya then says haha I was just kidding ishaan why are you being insecure..

Ishaan : no I'm not being insecure or something just stating the facts that she's my wife and I trust her

[Sharanya then came over and sat quietly on the table]

(Ishaan notices that something seems off with Sharanya and decides to approach her.)

Ishaan: Sharanya, what's wrong? You seem a bit quiet tonight."

Sharanya looks at Ishaan, her eyes filled with a mixture of emotions. She takes a deep breath before responding.

Sharanya: There's just something on my mind, but I'd rather talk about it later, when we have some privacy and now i want to go home like right now

Ishaan: okay then go let's just greet everyone and then we will leave

Sharanya : yes okay i just want to go home

Sharanya: before leaving guys, congrats! By the way, I'm not feeling great, so I'm gonna head home now. Ishaan, let's go.

Aditya: Oh, sorry to hear that, Sharanya. Take care and feel better soon!

Kavya: Yeah, take care, Sharanya. We'll catch up later. Hope you feel better.

Sharanya and Ishaan say their goodbyes and make their way home, leaving the gathering behind.

Sharanya sat in the car, her emotions weighing heavily on her. She slumped in her seat, closing her eyes, seeking solace in the darkness. Ishaan, sensing her unease, broke the silence cautiously, "Is something going on?"

Sharanya, feeling overwhelmed, replied with a mix of frustration and vulnerability, "I'll tell you when we get home, okay? Just drive a little faster."

Ishaan, caught off guard by her response, felt a surge of annoyance. Oh, so now you're the one in a hurry? What's the rush?"

Sharanya, her voice tinged with sadness, shot back, "Can't you just support me for once? I'm going through a tough time, and I need you to be there for me."

Ishaan : why are you behaving like this suddenly? Everything was good in the evening? Huh?

Sharanya : I'm asking you I'll tell you later please drive fast.

(ishaan nodded and he was also feeling a bit off and insecure because of the things Aditya said to him)

[They arrive home, and Sarah was waiting for their parents. Sharanya steps out of the car, completely ignoring Sarah. Sharanya walks past her daughter, her face filled with frustration and sadness. Sarah looks confused and hurt, and she turns to Ishaan, seeking answers about her mom's behavior.]
