Kavya stood on the terrace, the weight of Madhav's words still pressing heavily on her heart. The chill of the night air couldn't quite numb the pain, nor could it quiet the fire of determination burning within her. She couldn't just let him go, not when she knew deep down that they were connected, that they were meant to be together.

As she turned to leave, a strange sensation washed over her. It was subtle at first, like a faint whisper brushing against her consciousness. But then it grew stronger, spreading through her body like a current of energy, awakening something deep within her. Her mind flashed back to the kiss-Madhav's lips on hers, the heat between them, and the undeniable connection she felt. It was as if that moment had unlocked something dormant, something powerful.

Suddenly, Kavya felt her skin tingling, her body humming with a strange, new energy. She looked down at her hands, expecting to see them glowing or changing somehow, but they looked the same. Yet, she could feel it-the power coursing through her veins, a power she had never known she possessed.

Curiosity and instinct took over. She closed her eyes, focusing on the feeling, letting it guide her. In her mind, she pictured herself, her own image clear and sharp. Then, she imagined someone else-Madhav. She concentrated on his face, his features, his aura. As she did, the tingling sensation intensified, and before she knew it, she felt herself... shifting.

When Kavya opened her eyes, she was no longer herself. She had taken on Madhav's form, his face, his body. She looked down in shock, her breath catching in her throat. The reflection in the glass door beside her confirmed it-she was a perfect replica of him. It was surreal, yet it felt strangely natural, as if this was a power she had always had, lying dormant until now.

She quickly willed herself to shift back, and within seconds, she was herself again. Her heart raced, not just from the thrill of discovering this new ability, but from the realization of what it meant. This was no ordinary power; it was a gift, or perhaps a curse, linked to her true nature. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that this was just one piece of the puzzle-a piece that would help her unlock the truth about who she really was and how she could get Madhav to remember their past.

But as she took a deep breath, trying to process everything, she felt an eerie sensation that she was being watched. She quickly turned, her eyes scanning the darkness. At first, she saw nothing, just the shadows cast by the dim lighting of the terrace. But then, in the far corner, she caught a glimpse of movement-a figure slipping away, retreating into the shadows.

Kavya's heart skipped a beat. Someone had seen her. Panic rose within her, but she forced herself to stay calm. Whoever it was, they had witnessed something that could expose her, something she wasn't ready to reveal to anyone, let alone a stranger.

She quickly left the terrace, her mind racing. She needed to find out who had been watching her and why. If they knew about her powers, it could put her and Madhav in danger. But more than that, she needed to understand her powers fully-to harness them, control them, and use them to unlock the memories and powers that would bring her closer to Madhav.

As she made her way through the party, she kept a watchful eye, searching for any sign of the mysterious observer. But whoever they were, they had vanished without a trace. Kavya knew she couldn't let her guard down-not now, not when everything was at stake.

With renewed determination, she resolved to embrace this newfound power and use it to her advantage. She would find out who had seen her and why. And she would make sure that, no matter what, she and Madhav would be together again. Their love, their destiny, was written in the stars, and she wasn't about to let anyone or anything stand in their way.
