SCENE-1
RECAP : Shruti and Arnav were caught in rain..Arnav accompanies Shruti to her house..
Its night…Shruti sneezes and could not sleep…She thinks of Arnav…
Shruti’s pov:
Heart : Thank God.I helped him when he was unconscious in the washroom…If I had not gone,he would have been there alone…I could not even imagine what could have happened to him…
Brain : Hello…What is the use of it?? He blamed u for that…Do u remember??
Heart : So what?? Our meeting never ended without fights…That happened today too…His life is more important to me than my respect…
Brain : Oh God…U were locked up in the office…And he blamed u for that too…
Heart : So what?? Because of him only I came out…And do u know?? How I felt when he hugged me in the rain?? I felt secured in his embrace…That is nobody can harm me if I am in his embrace…And I did not want to let him go…But what to do?? I just let him…
Brain : Don’t get hypnotised by these kinds of thoughts..He just tried to save u from the car…
Heart : Hmm…That means he cares for me,right?? And he accompanied me until I reach home…What does that mean?? We care for the people we love,isnt it??
Brain : U stupid…He still has Varsha in his heart…
Heart : Ya… I know that…But she is no more…And she would really want Arnav to marry someone and lead a happy life…After all,she had told Karthi anna that Arnav’s happiness is hers too..
Brain : So do u think Arnav will love u?? He is adamant…And he wont…
Heart : But…
Shruti sneezes again..She comes back to senses…
Shruti : (to herself) What nonsense I have been thinking now?? Its all idiotic…He is just ur boss..Nothing more than that…Now lets sleep…
She closes her eyes and falls asleep..
SCENE-2
Arnav is reading something…He too sneezes as he was drenched in the rain…
Arnav’s pov :
I really remembered Varsha when she talked with Abhi…Why she is so similar to her??And why did I meet her?? At times I see her as Varsha and I am afraid that I would fall for her…I don’t want that…Varsha lost her life because she stood for me that day…I don’t want anybody by my side…Because I cannot bear their loss…But Shruti is so sweet as Varsha…If She had not come today to help me,I would have been there till now…I should have thanked her for that…But I scolded her instead..I am so rude with her…But I don’t have any other option other than acting rude with her…If I am so sweet with her,I may fall for her…Acting rude with her may make her angry at me and she too fights with me…At last,she will hate me…That is what I want…I don’t want anybody to love me..
He stops his thoughts and sleeps..
SCENE-3
Its Sunday morning…Shruti is sitting in the sofa still in her night suit watching TV…Her phone beeped and it is a message from Aatvik…It shows,”Please come to ur terrace and call me”
Shruti thinks,”Why is he texting me now?? He has not done like this before…”
She goes to her terrace and calls him..
Shruti : Hello…
Aatvik : Hi Shruti…How are u?? How are uncle,aunty,grandma and grandpa??
Shruti : Ya…I am fine…And everyone is fine here…How are people over there??
Aatvik : Hmm…They are fine too…Are u free today??
Shruti : Ya…
Aatvik : Can u come to café daffodil at 4 p.m??
Shruti : Yeah…Anything important??
Aatvik : I will tell u when U reach there…
Shruti : Ok..I will come…
She disconnects the call…
She calls Sid…
Sid : Hello…What is the matter?? I am going out with Swadhu now?? I cant come anywhere…
Shruti : Stupid…Listen to me now…U know Aatvik,right?? He called me…
Sid : Which Aatvik?? Ur relative?? Childhood friend??
Shruti : Ya..
Sid : Once u told me that ur family wants u to get married to him,isnt it??
Shruti : Ya…He is the one…He asks me to come to the café daffodil today…
Sid : I think he is gonna propose u for marriage…
Shruti : U duffer…I have not even talked to him recently…I used to play with him in my childhood…Its confusing why he had called me today…
Sid : Miss.CBI…Just go there…Don’t do so much investigations…U will know once u go there…
Shruti : Ok Sid…I will call u when I return from there…
Sid : Ok ..Enjoy..
Shruti : Stupid…
She smiles…
SCENE-4
Shruti gets ready in sky blue colour top and skirt…She starts her scooty..
Shruti thinks…
I don’t know what he is gonna say…I have not seen him for the past 5 years…I hate it when the people of my family say that I will get married to him in future..That created a hesitation in talking with him…I am sure that I am not in love with him…But,if my family has the thought in their mind,even today,to get me married to him,I will marry him…My parents had done so much to me and I can sacrifice my life for them..But I don’t know why he has called me…Lets see…
She reaches the café and goes inside…She waits for 10 minutes…Aatvik comes there with a girl who is in a saree…Shruti is confused to see the girl..
Aatvik : Sorry for the delay Shruti…
Shruti : Its ok…
She looks at the girl…Aatvik read Shruti’s mind…
Aatvik : Shruti…She is Aarti…(to Aarti) She is Shruti..
Both of them greet each other…
Shruti : May I know why have u called me??
Aatvik : I want genuine answer from u…Do u want to get married to me??
Shruti : No…Not like that…If my parents want me to,I will mary u…
Aatvik : Hmm…This is so sensitive matter…Please listen to me peacefully…Actually,I love Aarti…
Shruti is shocked and she widens her eyes…
Aatvik : I know that our parents want both of us to get married…But I love her so much…
Shruti : Do u think ur parents will accept her??
Aatvik : That is why I came to see u….I need ur help…
Shruti : But what can I do for that??
Aatvik : If our parents take our marriage talks,u have to say that u don’t like me…
Shruti : What? Why should I say that??
Aatvik : I don’t have any other option..I cannot say that to my dad..U know that he is so strict…
Shruti : But Aatvik,I cannot do that…My parents have trust on me…And I cannot break that…If I do so,ur parents will blame my family…I cant take that…U go directly to ur dad with her and tell them that u both are in love…Don’t ask me to do anything…
Aarti : Please Shruti…Help us…Please…
Aatvik : Shruti…Please do this for me…I will be thankful for u till the end of my life…
Shruti : No…Aatvik…I cant do that…
Aatvik : Please think about it…We have time…I just wanted to tell u all these…That’s why I called u…I hope u will understand me…
Shruti did not answer…
Aatvik : You are our only hope…I am waiting for positive reply from u…
Shruti did not say a word…
Both of them leave…
Shruti calls Sid and asks him to come there…He comes…
Sid : What happened? Why Miss.Chatterbox is upset??
Shruti tells him all that happened before…
Sid : Do u feel bad that he has rejected u??
Shruti : No no…I don’t…But…
Sid : Then what??He does not deserve u Shruti…Move on..
Shruti : He asked me to say that I don’t like him…So that he can marry her…
Sid : Ya…He is right…I think u don’t like him…If u had liked him,u would have got tears in ur eyes when he told that he loves other girl…
Shruti : He has to stand for his love nah?? Why he is asking me to??
Sid : Leave it yaar…He is a coward…Thank God u have escaped from him…U still have time nah?? U tell him that u cannot do that…Now leave it…We shall think about it when ur families talk about ur marriage…Now lets cheer up…
Shruti : But…
Sid : Leave it dear…Lets have ice cream.
Shruti : (smiles) Ok…
