Aarohi steps out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel, her wet hair cascading down her back. She looks up to see Arjun standing by the door, his eyes filled with desire.
Arjun: (his voice husky) "You look... breathtaking."
Aarohi: (smiling) "Is that so? I thought you had already seen me at my best."
[Arjun steps closer, his hand gently cupping her face. He leans in, brushing his lips softly against hers.]
Arjun: "Every time I see you, it's like the first time, Aarohi."
[Their kiss deepens, growing more passionate. Arjun’s hands move to her waist, pulling her closer as the towel loosens slightly.]
Aarohi: (whispering against his lips) "Arjun... someone might come in."
Arjun: (smirking) "Let them. I want to savor every moment with you."
[Aarohi gasps softly as Arjun’s hands explore her body, their breath mingling in the charged atmosphere. She tilts her head back, giving him access to her neck, which he kisses tenderly, eliciting a soft moan from her.]
Aarohi: (breathless) "You always know how to drive me crazy."
Arjun: "It's because I love you, every part of you."
[Just as the moment intensifies, there's a sudden knock on the door, breaking the spell. They both freeze, staring at each other in surprise.]
Voice from outside: "Aarohi, are you ready? We need to start the rituals soon!"
[Aarohi pulls away, adjusting her towel, her cheeks flushed.]
Aarohi: "I’ll be right there!"
[Arjun sighs, stepping back reluctantly.]
Arjun: "I guess we'll have to continue this later."
Aarohi: (smiling) "Definitely. Now, help me find something to wear."
[Arjun grins, watching her with adoration as she gets dressed, their earlier passion simmering just beneath the surface. They both know that the night is far from over and that their love for each other will continue to burn brightly.]
Aarohi gracefully descends the staircase in a stunning lehenga, her beauty radiating. Arjun is captivated, his eyes filled with admiration and love.
Arjun: (muttering to himself) "She's absolutely breathtaking."
[Akshara, standing nearby, notices Abhimanyu also glancing appreciatively at Aarohi, which fuels her jealousy.]
Akshara: (muttering) "Why is everyone so obsessed with her?"
[Jhanvi approaches Aarohi, smiling warmly. She takes a small plate with a lemon and green chilies and circles it around Aarohi to ward off any evil eye.]
Jhanvi: "Let me take your nazar, beta. You look like a dream."
[Jhanvi then takes out a beautiful necklace from a velvet box and holds it up for Aarohi.]
Jhanvi: "Aarohi, this is for you."
[Aarohi shakes her head slightly, feeling overwhelmed.]
Aarohi: "Ma, I can’t accept this. It’s too much."
Jhanvi: (smiling knowingly) "I knew you would say that. But this necklace is a hereditary piece of the Kapoor Khandan. Maji gave this to me, and now it’s my turn to pass it on to you."
Aarohi: "But Ma, I don't deserve this..."
Jhanvi: "You deserve it more than anyone, Aarohi. As the eldest daughter-in-law of this family, and not just for that reason alone. You love us dearly and take care of the family with such dedication."
