Seher and rehan arrives in pune, they park their car and ask people for direction to the graveyard. Some people didn't know while others gave them the wrong direction. Just when they were about to give up, a young girl working at this food stand says "you guys looking for the graveyard?" When they answer she says "its just five minutes away from here. Just keep heading straight and make a left." She says
"Thank you, may Allah bless you." He says
They walk until finally seher got tired of walking. Rehan looks at her and asks her why she stopped. "Its hot, and I'm tired. We haven't stopped for food or stop to pee." She says grouchy
"We're almost there, just wait for a little while." He says making seher groan.
Once they reached the grave area, rehan search for his dad, When he was about to pass it. He tripped on a stone. As soon as he was about to get up, he saw the grave stone in front of him, it had his dad name on it. He got up and sat down, seher looks at him, she was about to ask him something when he beat her to it.
"I finally found where my father was buried. Turns out this is the place." Rehan says bending down to say his prayers.
"That's great and all, but why are we here in the dark, we could come back tomorrow." She says
"No, I want to show my respect now. Don't you want to be in Punjab by tomorrow?" he asks making her nod her head
Good, so please be quiet I'm trying to show my respect." He says
Seher sat on top of a graveyard. She was looking at the stars when she saw someone coming."R...Rehaan" she says sacredly when she got no response from him she turns around again, and saw the person coming closer.
"R...Rehaan!" she says this time backing away ending up falling on his back. Rehaan turns his head around and yells at seher "I told you to wait but now look I just disrespected my fathers." He says looking at seher only to see her shaking controllably.
"Why are you shaking?" he asks making her point towards the direction she was looking at.
When Rehaan saw what she was looking at, he also got scared, but he didn't show it. Both of them grabbing on to each other and not realizing it at the moment. As soon as the figure was closer to the light, they saw a girl running towards them, she had cuts all around her arm, and she was wearing a white saree which was now dirty. She was running towards them saying "please, please help me." She says with her hands together tears coming out of her eyes.
Seher and Rehaan look at each other and realize there holding each other. Quickly they let go, Rehaan blushing while seher refuses to look at him. They heard noises and saw a group of guys coming towards them, they were all tense.
