The private jet hummed quietly as everyone settled into their seats. Abhimanyu watched Siya from across the cabin, his heart aching with the need to talk to her, to explain everything. But Siya, with obvious determination, ignored him and chose to sit next to Tanya. The two girls soon began talking about their upcoming exams after the winter break.
"Can you believe we'll be back in school soon?" Tanya asked, trying to keep the mood light. Siya forced a smile. "Yeah, we need to start preparing. There's so much to catch up on."
Abhimanyu sighed, running his hand through his hair. He wanted to fix things between them, but every attempt seemed to push them further apart. Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, the jet began its descent into Alwar.
After disembarking, Siya turned on her phone, only to see twenty-one messages from Abhimanyu, each one asking for a chance to talk. She glanced over at him, noticing how pale he looked, wondering if he had eaten anything at all.
She hesitated for a moment, then sent him a quick message: Let's talk tomorrow. Tonight's gonna be busy with unpacking and stuff.
Abhimanyu's phone buzzed with the message. He read it and smiled a little before another message popped up: But you gotta eat something good first so you're not starving.
His smile widened as he read it again, his hope rising. He looked up at Siya, and their eyes met for a brief moment. Siya couldn't help but smile faintly, despite herself.

As they got into the cars, Karan offered to drop Dhruv and Tanya off at their homes before heading back to the Singhania residence. Meanwhile, Siya, Rajveer, and their parents were on their way to the Arora mansion. The air in the car was heavy with unasked questions and concerns.
Purvi broke the silence, her voice filled with worry. "Siya, why wasn't Abhimanyu with you at the hospital?"
Virajas, who had been quiet until then, leaned forward slightly, his curiosity piqued. He too was troubled by Abhimanyu's absence during such an important time.
Siya glanced at Rajveer, her eyes silently asking for time to gather her thoughts. Rajveer, understanding her plea, spoke up. "Ma, Siya needs to rest. Let's not make her revisit those painful memories right now. She'll tell us everything after she's had some time to settle in." Purvi nodded, her worry easing slightly. "Alright, Siya. Rest first. We'll talk later."
Siya leaned against Rajveer's shoulder in the back seat, her arms around him in silence. Rajveer gently patted her cheek, giving her a reassuring smile, silently promising that he would always have her back.
The car pulled up to the Arora mansion, and the evening settled into a quiet anticipation of what was to come.
