ep 03
Pallavi Trivedi
(turns and starts running, her footsteps echoing through the empty streets) "I have to get away... I can’t believe this... Damien is a monster..."
dead person
She ran as fast as she could, her thoughts swirling in chaos. The image of Damien holding the gun, his creepy smile as he pulled the trigger, played over and over in her mind. The realization hit her like a ton of bricks—this wasn’t the man she thought she knew.
Pallavi Trivedi
(breathing heavily, tears streaming down her face as she runs) "How could I have been so blind? How could I have loved someone so... evil?"
dead person
The weight of everything she had discovered, coupled with the heartbreak she was already feeling, overwhelmed her completely. All she wanted was to escape, to forget what she had seen, but the truth was now etched into her soul.
Pallavi Trivedi
(running frantically, her mind a blur of fear and confusion, when she suddenly bumps into someone)
Pallavi Trivedi
(screams loudly, her voice filled with terror) "Aahh!"
Aditya Desai
(quickly covers her mouth, pulling her into a tight embrace) "Shh, Pallavi! It's me, Aditya! You're safe!"
Pallavi Trivedi
(realizes it’s Aditya, her eyes wide with relief and fear, she clings to him tightly, sobbing uncontrollably) "Aditya... Aditya!" (her voice muffled against his chest as she cries)
Aditya Desai
(concerned but trying to soothe her, his voice gentle) "Hey, hey, it’s okay, Pallavi. I’m here. What happened? Why are you so scared?"
Pallavi Trivedi
(still crying, unable to speak, she just holds onto him tighter, her body trembling with fear)
Aditya Desai
(confused but protective, he rubs her back, trying to calm her down) "Shh, it's okay. You don’t have to say anything. I’m right here, and I’m not going anywhere."
dead person
Pallavi couldn’t bring herself to explain what she had just witnessed. The terror was too fresh, too overwhelming. All she could do was cling to Aditya, finding some small comfort in his presence, even as her mind reeled from the horrifying truth she had just uncovered.

College Campus:

Three weeks had passed since Pallavi’s world was turned upside down. The whispers and gossip that had once surrounded her had slowly faded, as everyone moved on to other dramas. But today, something new was stirring.
Pallavi and Aditya: (walking into college together, hand in hand)
Girls: (noticing Aditya, blushing and whispering to each other) "Who’s that with Pallavi? He’s so handsome!"
(grinning) "Is he her boyfriend? He’s gorgeous!"
(sighing) "Lucky Pallavi..."
dead person
Pallavi held onto Aditya’s hand tightly, feeling a mix of emotions. The warmth of his presence was comforting, but the memory of what she had witnessed three weeks ago still haunted her. Yet, seeing the way the girls were reacting to Aditya brought a small smile to her face.
Aditya Desai
(playfully nudging Pallavi) "Looks like I’m quite popular here." (laughs lightly)
Pallavi Trivedi
(smiling up at him, her mood lightening) "They just have good taste."
dead person
As they walked together, hand in hand, Pallavi felt a strange sense of normalcy returning. But deep down, she knew that the secrets she was keeping were bound to catch up with her eventually.
Pallavi Trivedi
(teasingly, with a playful grin) "India mein nahi toh yaha popular hogaya."
Aditya Desai
(laughs, shaking his head) "Looks like I’m finally getting the attention I deserve." (winks at her)
dead person
Pallavi’s playful comment lightened the mood as they continued walking together. For a moment, it felt like old times, back when life was simpler. The bond between them was as strong as ever, giving Pallavi a brief respite from the storm brewing within her.

College Courtyard:
Liam scott
(gathering the group, his tone serious but trying to be conciliatory) "Hey everyone, let's just forget about what happened and move on. It's time to put the past behind us."
Liam scott
(turns to Pallavi, giving her a reassuring look.) "Pallavi, come here for a minute."
Pallavi Trivedi
(approaching hesitantly)
Liam scott
(whispering, with a concerned expression) "I know things have been tough. Just... stay away from Damien, okay? It’s for the best."
Pallavi Trivedi
(a shiver runs down her spine at the mention of Damien's name, her eyes wide with unease) "Okay... I understand."
dead person
Because of what happened, Pallavi stayed away from Damien and avoided him as much as possible.
dead person
Damien, now feeling the absence of Pallavi’s constant attention and care, began to grow bitter and frustrated. He missed the way she used to be around him and couldn't understand why things had changed so drastically.

College Courtyard:
Amelia Lawson
(giving Aditya a dare) "Aditya, tell us a secret."
Aditya Desai
(smirking, intertwining his hand with Pallavi’s) "Alright, Pallavi and I are dating. We’re getting engaged next month, and after we return to India, we’ll have the wedding."
Pallavi Trivedi
"Yes, it’s true." (blankly)

4 months later:

Damien’s obsession starts to grow as he becomes increasingly focused on Pallavi’s every action and presence.

Nighttime: Damien's Bedroom
Damien Blackwell
(sleeping, suddenly wakes up to see Pallavi standing near his bed, shocked) "How did you get in?"
Pallavi: (smiling) "My way."
Damien Blackwell
W-why are you here?"
Pallavi: (moving closer) "Because you wanted me near you."
Damien Blackwell
"No...no, you are not real."
Pallavi: (smile fading) "Yes, I am not. I came from your mind."
Damien Blackwell
"Leave me alone!!"
Pallavi: (giggling) "If you really wanted me to leave, I would have disappeared by now. But I didn’t."
"When will you accept the fact you love Pallavi?"
Damien Blackwell
"No... no, I don’t."
Pallavi: "Yes, you do. If you don’t like her, why does her not giving you attention and love like before affect you?"
Pallavi: (pouting) Pallavi shouldn’t be ignoring you. Didn’t she always say she loves you? So why is she engaged and dating another man?"
Damien Blackwell
(saddened) "Yes, how can she go to someone else when she used to sing her love to me?"
Pallavi: (smiling) "If you truly want her back, go and grab her. Don’t let her slip away."
Damien Blackwell
(slowly nodding)
Damien Blackwell
(eyes suddenly opens)
dead person
Damien looks around, seeing no one in the room. The sunlight streams in through the window, filling the space with warmth.
