Abhishek approached the old oak tree, his heart racing with anticipation. His grandfather emerged from the shadows, a stern expression on his face.

"Abhishek, you're making a grave mistake," he warned. 

"Marrying Sophia will secure our family's future. Refuse, and you'll face the consequences."

Abhishek stood firm.

 "I won't marry someone I don't love. I choose Shreya."

His grandfather sneered.

 "You're blinded by infatuation. Shreya is not worthy of our family's name."

Suddenly, a figure stepped out of the darkness. 

"That's not true," Shreya said, her voice steady. 

"I love Abhishek, and he loves me. We deserve a chance at happiness."

Abhishek's grandfather scowled, but Abhishek felt a surge of pride and gratitude toward Shreya. Together, they faced his family's opposition, determined to forge their own path.

But, as they turned to leave, Abhishek's grandfather uttered a chilling warning: 

"This isn't over. You'll pay for your defiance."
