Ep 18
Aishwarya’s Room – Midnight
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(softly) Sleep, Aish. I’m right here.
Aishwarya shifts slightly, her head resting against Aarav’s shoulder. His warmth surrounds her, easing the ache in her chest. She had spent months in pain, but now, with him so close, it feels like she can finally breathe.
Aishwarya Mukherjee (FL)
(weakly) You won’t disappear if I close my eyes, right?
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(gently stroking her hair) Never.
Her fingers curl around his shirt, refusing to let go, as if she’s afraid he’ll vanish. Aarav watches her, his heart aching at how fragile she looks. The once lively Aishwarya, full of fire and stubbornness, is now lying weak in his arms.
Aarav tightens his hold, vowing to himself—he will never let her go through this alone again.
Next Morning – Aishwarya’s Home
Sneha and Alia peek into the room and exchange a look. Aishwarya is still asleep, curled up next to Aarav, who sits awake, watching her like she’s the most precious thing in the world.
Sneha Kapoor(FL BFF)
(whispering) He didn’t sleep at all, did he?
Alia Thakur(FL BFF)
(softly) I don’t think so
Aarav looks up at them and gestures to be quiet. They nod, stepping back. But before they leave, Sneha’s gaze lingers on Aarav for a second longer than necessary. Something about the way he holds Aishwarya, the quiet devotion in his eyes—it stirs something in her chest.
Aishwarya stirs awake, blinking slowly. The first thing she sees is Aarav.
Aishwarya Mukherjee (FL)
(sleepily) You’re still here…
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(smiling) I told you, I’m not going anywhere.
Aishwarya manages a weak smile before her body reminds her of its condition. She winces, gripping her chest.
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(immediately concerned) What’s wrong?
Aarav doesn’t look convinced. He brushes the hair from her face and cups her cheek, his thumb tracing over her skin.
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(firmly) You’re not “okay” until you’re completely fine. And I won’t rest until you are.
Aishwarya feels her heart swell at his words. Even in her weakest state, he makes her feel like she’s the strongest person in the world.
Steven and his friends are already in the house
Sneha Kapoor(FL BFF)
(stirring her tea) He really loves her, doesn’t he?
Steven Valentine (ML BFF)
(leaning against the counter) No doubt about it.
Alia Thakur(FL BFF)
(smiling softly) The way he looks at her… it’s like she’s his entire world.
Kaiser watches Alia as she speaks, noticing the gentle admiration in her voice. Something stirs in his chest, but he shakes it off.
kaiser Liz(ML BFF)
(teasing) And here I thought you didn’t believe in love.
Alia Thakur(FL BFF)
(rolling her eyes) Love is one thing. What they have is… something else.
Steven chuckles, but Sneha stays silent. Her gaze drifts toward the staircase, her thoughts lingering on a certain someone upstairs.
Aarav presses a soft kiss to Aishwarya’s forehead.
Aarav Singhania(Ml)
(whispers) Rest, love. I’ve got you.
Aishwarya exhales, her body finally relaxing in his arms. For the first time in months, she feels safe. And in that moment, she knows—Aarav is her home.
