Sunlight streamed through the parted curtains.

Ruhaan opened his eyes and looked to his right and found Adi sitting at the edge of the bed. He had a worried look on his face.

He shot up and asked,

Ruhaan: You woke up so early?

Adi nodded negatively and said,

Adi: I didn't sleep for a minute last night.

After his confession last night, Adi had refused to talk to anyone about it. His friends had left him alone seeing his state. Ruhaan had agreed to stay up till he fell asleep. But apparently, he had dozed off sometime around midnight itself.

Ruhaan looked at him empathetically and said,

Ruhaan: Why did you say those things, Adi?

Adi sighed softly and said,

Adi: I said what was right. I don't deserve her. He does. And anyways, she'll be more happy with him rather than with an idiot like me.

Ruhaan: But are you really going to give up on her?

Adi: I'm not giving up on her , Ruhaan. I'm letting her go. She deserves happiness. And if that happiness is with Rishi, then so be it.

Ruhaan: And you're going to be okay?

Adi: Maybe. Maybe not. But I'll not stop her from being happy in her life. She'll be happier with Rishi.

Ruhaan: Don't say that-

Before he could complete his sentence, there was a sharp knock on the door. They looked at the door and Adi went and opened it.

An anxious Tapasya stood at the door.

Adi: What happened?

Tapasya: Mitali is missing.

~~~~~~~~~~

The gang along with Rishi were huddled in Adi and Ruhaan's room. They were all worried as to where Mitali could have gone.

Ruhaan: Rishi, does anyone other than us know that she's missing?

Rishi: Payal does. She's currently keeping Dadi busy to keep her away from Mitali's room.

Ruhaan nodded and turned to Shanu,

Ruhaan: Shanu, how did you come to know that she was missing?

Shanu: Well I went to her room as soon as I woke up to check on her and when I got there, I found her bed empty. I checked the bathrooms in the house along with Ananya and the backyard,but she was no where to be found.

The frown on Adi's face deepened by the second. He looked down.

Daksh: Where else could she possibly go on the day of her engagement? She isn't an irresponsible person.

Ruhaan: Rishi, do you know any such place that she could go?

Rishi pondered for a moment before saying,

Rishi: There is the tree house that we used to go to a lot....and....

He suggested a few places that Mitali would be when she was disturbed. So Ruhaan,Adi and Rishi decided to go find her.

Rishi looked at Adi through the rear view mirror while driving. He could see that he was visibly disturbed. He sighed.

Rishi: Don't worry. We'll find her.

Adi looked up at him for a split second and nodded slightly.

They didn't find Mitali in any of the places that Rishi had suggested. They were trying to call her but there was no answer from the other side.
