Mumbai.

Sara felt a pang of jealousy in her heart. She somehow maintained her composure. Ad shoot finished. Director thanked Seb and Shubman.

Shubman looked at Sara who's talking with the director. Seb nudged him to talk with her.

"What? No!" Shubman mumbled.

"You should!" Seb said by crossing his arms.

"God, I can't!" Shubman said.

"Don't behave like a kid, shub! Go!" Seb said.

Shubman sighed heavily and started walking towards Sara. Sara noticed his foot coming towards her. Her pulse quickened. Her fingers played in tension.

"Hey..." Shubman said.

Sara looked at him. Director turned to him.

"Shubman, do you want anything?" He asked.

"I.. want to talk.. with her.." Shubman said.

Sara's heart skipped a beat. She looked down.

"Okay.. you can have your time.." Director said and left from there.

"S.. Sara.." Shubman mumbled.

Sara looked at him. She found tears in his eyes. She immediately looked down.

"Don't do.. this.. to me.. Atleast.. look at me" Shubman said in tears.

Sara looked around and found all are watching them. Seb signed her to go somewhere.
Sara held his hand and reached guest hall. Shubman followed silently but felt happy inside as she held his hand.

Sara looked at him. Shubman didn't said anything neither she. They just kept looking at each other like that.

Shubman somehow gained his courage and started walking towards Sara. She didn't said anything.

"I'm.. sorry.. Sara" Shubman said in tears.

Sara didn't said anything. Shubman looked directly into her eyes.

"Sara.. please..say.. something.." Shubman said.

Sara didn't said anything.

Shubman immediately pulled her closer and hugged her tightly. Sara didn't respond but tears started falling down his shoulder. In a few seconds, she started crying in his arms.

"Sara.. I'm really.. sorry" Shubman cried.

"Why? Why shubman? Why did you throw me into hell? " Sara cried.

"I'm sorry.. Sara.. " Shubman cried and about to pull away from the hug. Sara stopped him and pulled him more closer and hugged him tightly.
Shubman smiled in tears and wrapped his arms around her by pulling her more closer.

"How could you leave me like that?" Sara asked in tears. Shubman shocked.

"You.. left because of me.. how can I face you?" Shubman asked by holding her in his arms.

"I was stupid!!! I was really a moron!!! I don't know how to understand people's feelings! I don't even know how to face the problems! I was always been a coward! I don't know even my feelings! And.. why did you became so close to me? Why did you make me feel like dying if you weren't near me?
Why did you make me think about you everytime, everywhere and every second? I don't like this! Why are you always running in my mind?
Do you know how many sleepless nights I've spent without your touch? Do you know How many times I end up searching for you on my bed at middle of the night?
Do you know how many time I end up crying silently making sure my roomates won't listen my sobs? Why did you make feel so lonely when I needed someone's comfort? This is all because of you!!!" Sara collapsed in his arms.

Shubman held her tightly and cried.

"I'm sorry.. Sara..if you really want me as a friend then I'll be with you! I swear.. I won't do anything wrong.. I just want to be with you.. I just want your happiness.. I'll try to digest the reality.. I'll try to get move on..infact I'm trying.." Shubman said in tears.

Sara pulled back from the hug and took out the pendant which he's wearing from his shirt.

"Is this.. called moving on? Don't lie, Shubman! And.. who said to move on?" Sara said.

Shubman strucked by listening the last words

"What.. what do you.. mean?" Shubman asked.

Sara intertwined their hands and looked into Shubman's eyes.

"Shubman.. I don't know how to describe my inner feelings for you.. I don't know what name should I give to this unbreakable bond.. but I can surely say that I can't live without you.. I have this feeling from the day.. we got close.. but I was.. scared to.. admit this..
I was scared what if.. we'll become.. like my parents? What.if.. i can't give.. enough love.. you want.. what if.. you lose.. interest in me.. after few years? These thoughts scared me to death, Shubman! But the truth is.. I always treated you more than a friend.. if this feeling is called as.. love then..
I LOVE YOU, SHUBMAN!" Sara said.

Shubman froze in his place. He didn't said anything. He kept looking at her in shock.

"Shubman?" Sara tapped his cheek.

Shubman snapped back into reality. He immediately hugged her tightly.

"Really? Sara? You're not pranking me right? Am I dreaming? You.. really love me?" Shub said.

"If this isn't love, then why will I come back to talk with you.. now? If this isn't love, why will my eyes.. cry.. after seeing you? If this isn't love, why will I always include you in my.. prayers everytime unknowingly? I Love you, Shubman!" Sara said in tears.

Shubman's eyes sparkled. Tears rolled down his eyes. He pulled her closer and hugged more.

"I.. I can't believe.. it!" Shubman said.

Sara pulled out from the hug and kissed his forehead. Shubman stunned.

"I love you!" Sara said by joining their foreheads

Shubman closed his eyes as she pressed her forehead against his. He smiled in happiness.

"I love you too, Sara!" Shubman said.

Shubman and Sara opened their eyes and smiled at each other.

Seb smiled and closed the room door silently. He looked into the video call and found Virat, Rohit, Hardik are smiling happily and Ishan, Aditi are smiling in tears.

"All okay, bhai!" Seb smiled in tears and ended the call. He kept in his pocket and wiped his happy tears.
