Swara: thats good. You don't show tantrums unlike your brother.
And swara runs from there
Laksh: hey shona you
Laksh runs behind her.

Ragini: do you even know M of music topper.

Sanskar: no
Ragini: then
Sanskar: you know lado I can go to even hell If she asks me to do that.
Ragini: you are mad for my sister.
Sanskar; yes I am mad for her but I want myself to be in senses, so I can collect all moments I spend with her.
I can even die for her but I want to live my life with her
I can even go to hell for her but I wish her to be in heaven always.
I love her but I will not pressurize her ever to love me back.
Ragini: so sweet but all wishes for shona. Not for me
Sanskar: you are also special for me lado, you know what you are the first person who has called me friend, because before that everyone used to call me padaku, I didn't even have a single friend before you. So don't you dare to think that you are even a bit less than shona to me.
Ragini is so happy that finally she has someone who can change her shona's opinion about love. And gives him a side hug.

Laksh is running behind swara.
Swara: break, I am tired
Laksh: even I am. Lets sit on bench.
Swara holds laksh's hand and let her head rests on laksh's shoulder.
Laksh:( caresses her cheeks), I m sorry shona
Swara: shhhh lucky, I told you I am habitual of forgiving you.
They both smile.
