After half an hour in market … it started raining slowly
Mrs. Meera Sharma/ FL mom

Her mother was too busy bargaining with vendors

Priya Sharma /FL younger sister
*Rolling her eyes at her mothers bargaining* 👀
Unknown
*Shooks her head while laughing* 😆
Across the street - sleek black car stopped at the signal …… 🛑
Unknown
* Saw small puppy and run toward the puppy 🐶 *
Inside— Flawless in the tailored suit,man was sitting. His face lit by the dim glow of his phone screen. The rain slides down the window like silent tension.
Unknown
*cold expressions while speaking*🥶
Unknown
Global merge proposal—7.3% valuation…
As something moved outside the glass he looked up —
And the world. Slowed. Down
Unknown
*His hand still holding the phone, lowered. * “📞 Hello … hello……”
Unknown
*His eyes locked onto a girl —*
crouched on the road beside the muddy puddle in the soft rain 🌧️
Unknown
Aww baby, don’t run! I am trying to help you you are safe with me
Puppy was scared because of rain and lightning tries to run but can’t because got stuck in puddle
Unknown
*She scoop up a tiny, scared and shivering puppy 🐶 into her arms from puddle. Her laugh 😀 breathy and full of warmth as she tries to comfort it.*
While her pink kurti is drenched and was plastered to her skin— not provocative, but unintentionally intimate. Her hair sticks to her face. But she don’t care a bit about this. She was all in moment
Unknown
There you go you’re safe now 😍
The corner of her lips lifted as the puppy snuggle into her arms and licked her cheek.
Unknown
*She giggled. 🤭 Pure. Unfiltered. Wildly… softly*
He blinked slowly—— once, then again — like trying to confirm if she was real…
Unknown
holds the phone on his lap tightly….
Puppy
*Licked her again.. small bark like he is saying* “thank you”
Unknown
Hahah 😃… *kissed his nose 🐶 *
Unknown
*His gaze trailed over her — not in hunger, but in need that he had never felt was necessary before*
Unknown
*Her soaked clothes clung to her waist the sway of her spine visible as she shifter*
The drop of rain that rolled from her collarbone to her waist
Something dark Twister inside him.. Not just interest….
Unknown
* He leaned slightly forward, tilted his head,one hand gripping the leather seat tighter*
Unknown
Not just Beautiful … * deep low voice*
Unknown
…Delicate. Messy. Innocent. Running me without even looking at me….
She squats down picked her bags which fell while she was helping puppy
Puppy
“Woff… woff…” *wiggles his tail obediently and looking at her”
Unknown
*stood up wiping her bag little…* haha *laughing and walks towards her sister across the road calling her *…. Priyaa… see…
He watched her mouth move……. He wanted to hear her voice…. He wanted to know everything about her……
As he was so immersed in her… Driver started the engine breaking the silence…
Unknown
Stopp!!!… Don’t move..* said without taking away his eyes from her*
Scared, the driver immediately stopped the car which had barely move forward
The girl was walking away now puppy wrapped in her dupatta…. And Still. She didn’t look at him…. But he couldn’t stop looking…
Unknown
You don’t even know you just happened to me…. But I do… And i’ll never forget it…. 😏
Unknown
*Fell chill in her spine… saw behind… found nothing except for black car*i guess i have caught the cold…. Ab maa dantengi ( maa will scold me)
Unknown
Saw her shivering and disappearing…
Unknown
😏…. Lets go!!!…. *to the driver…. *
Unknown
*leaned backwards to the car seat still holding phone in hand … *
His phone screen lit up again—- but he didn’t glance at it . His thoughts 💭 were still drenched in her….
Rain 🌧️ kept falling…. So did something inside him….
The beginning of his obsession
Priya Sharma /FL younger sister
Didi, you seriously wrapped a puppy in your dupatta?….Like in your new pink One ?
Priya Sharma /FL younger sister
*rolled her eyes” 👀
Unknown
*laughing 😃*…Of course. He was shivering! I can’t just leave him.
She placed the now dry puppy 🐶 inside in a little basked lined with towel 🧺
Mrs. Meera Sharma/ FL mom
*Smiling warmly*… you have always been like this. Full of love and no sense of practicality.
Unknown
I will take that as a compliment 😋
Mrs. Meera Sharma/ FL mom
Kuch nahi ho skta iss ladki ka *shook head while smiling * .. ab jao or naha lo nhi to bimar ho jaogi (Nothing can be done about this girl… now go and take shower or else you will catch the cold )
Unknown
Achooo… 🤧 * looking at her mother in horror like scared cat 🐱 and taking slow steps back*
Unknown
Runs back to her room * 🏃♀️ *
Mrs. Meera Sharma/ FL mom
Where are you running … *glares as her* 👁️
Mrs. Meera Sharma/ FL mom
Don’t forget to take medicine *shouting*……Yeh ladki nahi sudhregi (this girl will never change)
Priya Sharma /FL younger sister
Hahaha 🤣
Unknown
*already Took shower 🚿 … sitting on sofa near window looking at rainy sky*
Patting the puppy’s head, still unaware that somewhere in the city, someone’s world had stopped spinning because of her
Meanwhile— Raichand penthouse— Midnight
The city outside was glowing in the post-rain haze but someone was seated alone on terrace, a whisky 🥃 glass untouched in his hand. The wind ruffled his shirt sleeves..
His laptop 💻 was open. His mind, not.
He had gone through 4 meetings, two board calls and yet…. All he remembered was HER
The way her wet hair had stuck to her neck. The innocence in her eyes. The curves of her waist, unintentional, natural, pure…
He wasn’t type to be get distracted…. He didn’t do obsession…. He didn’t believe in soulmate or poetic moments….
But she was lodged in his memory like a THRONE and a FLOWER at the same time
Unknown
* Muttering to himself * I don’t know your name but I know the sound of your laugh.. * unknowingly smiles thinking of her 😊*
Unknown
* Typing into his private surveillance system💬 * [CCTV footage - 5:00 pm -6:00 pm — lane 12 Market…]
Unknown
No … stop what are you doing * scolding himself and runs hand though his hair in irritation*
He didn’t want to reduce her to file…..not yet
He wanted fate to bring her again
Unknown to him fate was already moving —- just as she had said yes to that interview call that very afternoon
Unknown
*She lays awake having video call *
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱 Wait… you rescued the puppy…..in your new pink suit … in middle of road?
Unknown
📱He was wet and scared! What was i suppose to do —- leave him to die just to save my new dupatta?
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱Dupatta murderer. I hope you remember how hard it was to find that exact pink.
Unknown
📱Shut up! Dupatta is fine and He’s asleep in towel right now
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱You and your stray-saving heart which ends up emotionally attached in .1 second
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱 Anyways you have interview with India’s most ruthless, ridiculously hot, mysterious CEO…. Have you even prepared.
Unknown
📱Umm umm… i googled him to know. he hates small talk and doesn’t do second chances .
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱You’re not going on date with him “Anu” you’re going there for work. Unlesss…
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱 Unless 😈 ….. fate is not setting you up for some billionaire romance level twist….. like he falls with in love with you at first sight ?
Unknown
📱 Oh please. Those rich men don’t fall in love. They acquire, immediate and move on…
Tanya/ FL’s BF
📱 yup, which means you are totally his type 🤣
Unknown
📱 Don’t forget to wear your “ puppy saviour” expression during interview.. might just melt that CEO glacier 😂
Unknown
📱 As if I’ll ever see someone like him “rolls her eyes 👀 “
Little does she know… he’s already burning with the memory of her.
And day after tomorrow… he won’t just see her.
He’ll own the space she walks into.
Unknown
* standing near floor ceiling window,*
Unknown
I’ll see you again.
And this time…
You won’t just pass me by.
Looking out into the stormy night, a single thought echoing in his chest
Fate..
At Shiv mandir 🛕—— in the outskirts of delhi….
Morning air was cool, wrapped the damp earth and incense.
Bell 🔔 echoed faintly as white pigeons 🕊️flew over the stone temple steps.
Unknown
*stepped out of the luxury SUV.*
His Dadu and Dadi walking beside him
Unknown
* He was dressed in a pale grey kurta, the fabric stiff against his skin — unfamiliar, unwanted.*
He hadn’t worn one in years.
Hadn’t been to a temple in longer.(there is reason)
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
*smile softly * Beta, bohot achaa lag rha hai… tumhare sath yhan firse aakr. (Beta, it feels good… being here with you again.)
Unknown
*quietly, avoiding eye contact… coldly 🥶 * Bas aapke liye, Dadi (Only for you grandmother)
His grandma went inside… while he was standing near the temple steps..
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
* She knew he wouldn’t come inside, and she didn’t force him either — she was just happy that he came this far.*
But something strange pulled at him today.
As if the universe held its breath.
Unknown
*He walked near the temple pound (pond is not inside)*
Unknown
*His eyes draw… without reason*
Unknown
*Bent gracefully near the water, copper lota in hand, she knelt barefoot in a soft pink suit.*
Unknown
*Lightly blushed cheeks hair tie’s at back in loose bun* Hehehe 😃….
Her dupatta fluttered, catching the breeze, while her anklets chimed as she shifted slightly, laughing at something her dadi said.
She didn’t see him….AGAIN
Unknown
* He forgot to breathe… his 💓 heart thudded —— heavy, uninvited*
His eyes devouring the curve of her smile😊, the drop 💧 of water on her wrist, the way her hair curled loosely around her ear.
Unknown
You….. again* looking at her like found the treasure*
Unknown
* Took a step forward and then another…..*
Unknown
*Drawn… helpless….*
But before he could reach… she stood
Unknown
*Noticing a strange stillness … she glanced back instinctively*
There was a man near the temple wall — tall, muscular in light kurta……
Unknown
* Paused as she was staring toward him*
Unknown
*Squint her eyes… trying to see who he is…. But can’t*
The morning sun blurred his features.
Unknown
*Understood she can’t see him… smiling slyly*
All she could make out was his sharp jawline, tension in his stance, and… something haunting in the way he stared
Unknown
💭 Why does that feel…. Familiar * looking at blurred figure deeply *
Unknown
* Her heart fluttered oddly. But she looked away*
Unknown
Dadi chaliye…. Pani le liya. ( let’s go grandma… have took the water)
Unknown
*…. left from there inside the temple, one hand holding her grandmother’s arm and the other carrying a copper lota, her anklets chimed melodiously with every step…..*
As she turned hurriedly, her JHUMKA —- a small silver earring with pink stone —- slipped silently from her ear and dropped silently by the pond.
Unknown
No… wait!!!..* whispered… stepping forward slowly*
Unknown
* Bent down, picked up the earring — delicate in his hand. He stared at it, his thumb brushing the pink stone*
*A chill swept through him *
Unknown
💭 Rain… Sunlight….. Laughter….. Anklets…. Now this… *staring at jhumka*…. How many times will i meet you like this only to loose you again ?…
He clenched the jhumka in him palm like a SECRET.
Unknown
But at least now i have a piece of you *smiling*
He is smiling here and If his family had seen him smiling like this — they would've died from shock. 😳🤣🤣.
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
Aap jaldi ayiye na pooja ka time ho raha hai. ( you come first, its aarti time)
Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
* Holding her stuff * Meri pyari biwi aa to raha hun gussa kyun karti ho ( my beautiful wife, i am coming why are you getting angry)
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother

Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather

Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
Yashvardhan? Areey, tu yhan kaise?
Yashvardhan Sharma/ FL’s Grandfather
*turns in surprise, then laughs*
Vikram!….. tu khud to kahin dikhai nhi deta hai. Intne mahinon baad mandir mein?
(Vikram!… You yourself are nowhere to be seen. After so many months, in the temple?)
Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
* smiling * … Bas, bacche ki khushi ke liye aaya hoon.
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
Namaste Bhaiya 🙏 , kaise hain aap.

Yashvardhan Sharma/ FL’s Grandfather
Bhabhi ji namaste 🙏, mai bdiyaa hu aap btaiye. ( i am fine how are you )
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
Aap akele? Savita nahi aye?
(You're alone? Savita didn't come?
)
Yashvardhan Sharma/ FL’s Grandfather
* Smiles* Nahi bhabhi vo rahi Savita or meri poti bhi aayi hai vo andar gayi hai.
( No, sister-in-law, there’s Savita over there — and my granddaughter has come too; she went inside.)
Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
Mera bhi pota aya hai. Par woh to bas bodyguards ki tarh mandir ki sidiyon pr khada hai
(My grandson has come too. But he's just standing on the temple steps like a bodyguard.)
Both were laugh quietly… Savita came
Savita Sharma / FL’s grandmother
Kamini kaise ho tum, long time no see
*smiling)
(Kamini how are you)
Kamini Raichand / ML’s grandmother
Hahah… mai to ek dum bdiya hu tum batao

Savita Sharma / FL’s grandmother

Badiya bhabhi ji ( Fine sister-in-law)
Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
Arrey chalo, prasad lo. Kismat dekho, hum log bhi mil gaye. Kya pata… kuch toh likha ho.
(Oh come, take some prasad. Just look at our luck — we ran into each other too. Who knows… maybe something’s written.)
Yashvardhan Sharma/ FL’s Grandfather
Ho bhi sakta hai. Kabhi socha tha — hamari dosti se rishtedaari bhi ban sakti hai?
(It’s possible. Did you ever think… our friendship could one day turn into a family relationship?)
Vikram Raichand/ ML’s grandfather
Zaroor. Bhagwan ki marzi hui, to sab hoga.
(Absolutely. If it’s God’s will, everything will fall into place.)
They all fold hands in front of the temple again — side by side — as their grandkids pass right by them from opposite directions… not noticing each other.
