Mriga: Why is he calling at this hour?

Mriga receives the call.

Mriga: Hmm... what happened? Are you signing off the play?

Yug: What? No, not by any chance. I just wanted to ask if you are ready for tomorrow's play.

Mriga: Yeah, Im ready. We have practiced a lot since the last few days. Then what makes you think that Ill not be ready?

Yug: Ah, you were so quiet today. So I thought you must be getting nervous. I know the director asked you to do the weirdest thing today, and for sure Im also against it. It's completely against my etiquette. So I just want to make you comfortable so it wont affect our act.

Mriga: Oh, well, thats very thoughtful of you. Thank you so much for thinking about my comfort. Anyways, its getting too late. I think we should sleep now. Goodnight.

Yug: Goodnight.

Mriga hung up the phone.

Here, Yug was blushing like hell.

Neel: What happened, bro? I havent seen you smiling this much before.

Yug: BeNeeles our play, the first time I talked with Mriga this long. I cant believe it.

Neel: Yug, Ive already told you, shes a personal interest of Vivaan. That psychopath Vivaan, who almost killed Raj.

Yug: It was Raj's mistake. He shouldnt have said such things about Mriga.

Neel: If somehow Vivaan comes to know that you're crushing over Mriga, then you are dead. His best friend has warned everyone to stay away from Mriga on his order.

Yug: That bastard, still controlling everyones life from the US. Im not going to obey his orders. Yes, I, Yug Deshmukh, swear to keep crushing over Mriga no matter what happens.

Neel: Hmm. I guess someone really needs a good massage on their ass.

Yug: Shut up, and sleep now.

Neel: Yeah, yeah, goodnight.

Next day, everyone gathers near the theatre. Mriga was wearing a baby pink gown with pink shoes and curled hair. On the other Neele, Yug has worn a white t-shirt with full sleeves and above that, theres a brown leather jacket with brown leather shoes. Both were looking like a made-in-heaven pair.

Srushti, Ishita, Nisha were engrossed in taking pics with Mriga, while Yug was lost in his fairytale world while staring at Mriga.

Mriga: Hey Ishita, wheres Soham? He told me he will come to my show anyhow.

Ishita: I dont know. I havent heard from him since yesterday. Dont worry; hell come any minute now.

Nisha: Now go, your teammates are looking for you.

Girls did a group hug.

Girls: All the best, Mriga. Give your best shot today.

Yug is still lost in his dream.

Neel: Wake up, bro. Look at the time.

Yug: Oh no. Am I late?

Neel: Not much. All the best. I know you are gonna rock the show.

Yug: Thanks, bro. Okay, bye now.

Mriga and Yug go into the hall for her team meeting.

Yug: Mriga, you are looking stunning in this dress.

Mriga: Thanks, Yug. You are also looking very smart.

That compliment from Mriga takes Yug to the seventh sky.
