HOSPITAL- 

Sunita couldn't answer when Tarun asked the reason behind her hatred towards Anu. 

Tarun: For the first time I'm noticing someone hating their sibling. It means that you don't love your parents. 

Sunita: I love them. Don't misjudge me. 

Tarun: They must have told you to care for Anu, or at least be nice to her. Did you do that? 
They asked you not to hurt Anu. Did you listen to them? 
They are living only for you. Do you realise that? 

Sunita: I am not in a mood to answer you! Let me be peaceful. 

Tarun: You want peace right? Then listen to me. 

Sunita: Leave from here! Just...l-leave! 

Tarun: I won't. You need to be quiet for some time, else I'll have to arrange a special syringe for controlling you. 

Sunita: Stop joking! 

Tarun: I'm being serious…I'll call the doctor now. 

As Tarun shouts "DOCTOR!", Sunita closes his mouth with her hand. While she realises it, she takes away her hand and regrets for the same.

Sunita: Fine! What do you wanna say? 

Tarun: First have some water. Else…special syringe only. 

Sunita: Okay Okay! 

Sunita stares at Tarun and then has a glass of water.

Sunita's inner voice: Gosh, I'm badly trapped by him! 

Tarun's inner voice: Madam, you're not trapped don't worry. 

She kept the glass on the table. 

Tarun: Listen to me Sunita. You're really a nice girl. But your ego, ignorance and unwanted stubbornness are forcing you to take the wrong path. You're hiding the rectitude within you and exhibiting the bad attitude. If you act the same with others they would blame your parents only, not you. Anyone can judge you from a different angle. Would you want to backstab your loving parents? They are worried for you every second and longing for your change! 
Just because you have some negative qualities doesn't mean that you're hated by any of us, as we know that Sunita doesn't intend to hurt people. Human beings do make mistakes. If you have a PhD in apprehending people's emotions, I'm sure you'll be one of the best. Whether you like someone or not, it depends on your judgement. 
In short, you're a diamond in the rough. Exhibit good qualities and eliminate negative thinking. Be a happy go lucky girl and enjoy life. I don't know how you were in the past, but if you alter your present you will have an absolute future. This will also make your parents proud.

Tarun said these words patiently to her. She isn't able to utter one word and pauses for a minute. For the first time ever, Sunita went patient and calm with Tarun!

Sunita: T..Tarun, no one has given me such a piece of advice. 

Tarun: I wasn't advising you, I explained the significance of your life. 

Sunita: I'm totally wordless..

Tarun: Have you played truth or dare? 

Sunita: Yes. 

Tarun: I'm giving you two dares. You must complete one now.  

Sunita: Not now, I'm tired.
