Shubman was getting ready for the court hearing, adjusting his tie in front of the mirror, but his mind was miles away, swirling with anxiety and uncertainty. He stared at his reflection, trying to gather his thoughts, when a soft knock on the door broke through his reverie.

Sara stepped into the room, her presence a calming force amidst the tension. She saw the look of worry on his face and gently called out, "Shubman?"

He turned to face her, his eyes reflecting a mixture of nerves and hope. "Yeah, Sara?" he replied, his voice a bit shaky.

She walked over to him, her expression full of empathy and determination. "I know this is a lot to handle," she said softly. "But we've worked hard for this day. We've uncovered the truth, and now it's time to let justice prevail."

Shubman sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I know. It's just... what if it doesn't go as planned? What if they don't believe us?"

Sara placed a reassuring hand on his arm. "Look at me, Shubman," she said firmly. "We've gathered solid evidence. We've prepared thoroughly. And most importantly, we know the truth. Have faith in that."

He looked into her eyes, drawing strength from her unwavering confidence. "You're right," he said, taking a deep breath. "We have to trust the process."

Sara nodded, giving his arm a supportive squeeze. "Exactly. And remember, you're not alone in this. I'll be right there with you, every step of the way."

He smiled faintly, the tension easing slightly from his features. "Thank you, Sara. I don't know what I'd do without you."

"You'd still be the strong, resilient person you are," she replied with a warm smile. "But I'm glad I can be here to support you."

They shared a moment of quiet understanding before Sara glanced at the clock. "It's time," she said gently. "Are you ready?"

Shubman took one last look in the mirror, straightening his tie with newfound resolve. "Yes," he said firmly. "Let's do this."

Together, they walked out of the room and headed towards the car waiting to take them to the courthouse. The drive was filled with a quiet tension, both of them lost in their thoughts as they prepared for the hearing ahead.

When they arrived at the courthouse, the atmosphere was charged with anticipation. Reporters and onlookers gathered outside, their cameras flashing as Shubman and Sara made their way through the crowd. Sara kept a steady hand on Shubman's arm, guiding him through the chaos with a determined expression.

Inside the courtroom, they took their seats, the weight of the moment settling over them. As the proceedings began, Sara's mind was sharp and focused, ready to present the evidence they had meticulously gathered.

In the courtroom, the atmosphere was tense as the hearing began. The prosecution presented their case, but Sara remained calm, knowing the evidence they had gathered would soon expose the truth.
