Shubman stood there with a nervous smile on his lips.

Sara: Are you for real? Or am I dreaming?

Shubman: You're not dreaming. I'm actually standing in front of you.

Sara: What are you doing here?

Shubman: Can we talk? Please?

Sara: You are the one who didn't want to talk.

Shubman: I know I know! I'm so dumb for snapping at you for no reason.

Sara stays silent as she got reminded of all his words and tone.

Shubman: Can I atleast come in? Sachin sir would kill me if he sees me here at this time.

Sara didn't say anything but she opened the door for him.

Shubman: Alright! Now hear me out.

Sara: Can I ask you something?

Shubman: Yeah baby!

Sara: Do I get too demanding sometimes? Do you find it difficult to have a perfect balance between your professional commitments because of me? Don't get me wrong but I just want to know these.

Shubman: Sara, please!! Please, don't doubt or question yourself. There is this particular brand, I was working with and they were continuously asking me for retakes. I was so frustrated that I just vented all my anger out on you, And I'm sorry for that! I'm really sorry, Sara.

Sara: I wouldn't have asked you to drop me off at the airport if I had known that you're busy, I swear!!

Shubman (cups her cheeks): I know, Sara. I'm so full of guilt because of what I did to you in the morning. I would never do something like that again. Sorry baby?

Sara: Kya sorry sorry laga rakha hai?!

Shubman: Toh kya karu?

Sara: Woh bouquet aur chocolate kiske liye laaye ho?

Shubman: For you, obviously!

Sara: Then give it to me na!!

Shubman: Haa yaar!! Main toh bhool hi gaya..

Shubman knelt down on both knees, with the bouquet in his hands, his expression all sincere and apologetic.

Shubman: The moment I got done with the video, I started looking for you all around the house without realizing that you had left. I have never hated myself more than that specific moment. I just didn't know what to do next. I was feeling lost without you. I'm sorry, Sara! I'm really sorry!

Sara smiled warmly, setting the bouquet aside. She gently took Shubman's hand, helping him to rise, and then embraced him into a heartfelt hug.
Hugs are actually so underrated. Especially those hugs that are so tight that you can literally feel the other person's heartbeat and for a moment, everything seems so calm and safe like nothing can hurt you.

Shubman: So, did you forgive me?

Sara: Forgive you? I was never angry at you. Yeah, I was hurt because you never behaved like that before. Infact, you wouldn't have to come here, I was just a call away. I didn't call you because I thought...

Shubman: that my frustration is still there?

Sara: Yeah, but I get you. Sometimes, brands can be too demanding. Haina??

Shubman: Haa exactly!! Maine toh keh diya hai Seb ko ki mujhe kabhi kaam nahi karna iss brand ke sath.

Sara: Hmm you did right. Bitchy brand!
