Episode # 2
Pihu is chopping vegetables, her hands steady but her mind distracted by the constant loud thwack of the knife against the chopping board.
Anjali, stands next to her, chopping aggressively, making the sound even sharper.
Pihu tries to ignore it, her eyes focused on the vegetables in front of her.
The kitchen smells of spices and fresh ingredients,but there's something else in the air.
Anjali's sharp movements keep breaking the rhythm, and Pihu feels a knot tighten in her stomach.
Finally, unable to take it anymore
Pihu Kumari ( FL)
*speaks up*
Anjali, can you please chop nicely? You're...
Anjali Kumari (FL's cousin)
*cuts her off, suddenly pointing the knife at Pihu, her voice loud and filled with anger*
Don't tell me what to do! You'll never tell me what to do. Never, Pihu.
Pihu Kumari ( FL)
*flinches at the sudden outburst, her eyes widening in shock*
The tension between them escalates as Anjali breathes heavily, her words muttering under her breath.
Anjali Kumari (FL's cousin)
*muttering to herself*
Pihu can never surpass me...
Pihu Kumari ( FL)
*her heart races, but she keeps her voice calm, trying to avoid further conflict*
Okay... I'm sorry.
Anjali Kumari (FL's cousin)
*she doesn't respond. Instead,she glares at Pihu, her frustration visible*
Get away from me.
Pihu Kumari ( FL)
*she steps back, giving Anjali space, picks up another knife and resumes chopping, trying to block out the discomfort she feels.*
~THE PRIVATE AIRPLANE RANGE~
The sun is shining brightly as a private jet touches down on a quiet runaway.
The plane's engine slowly fades away as the door opens, and a young man, steps.
He removes his sunglasses and takes a deep breath of fresh air.
Neil walks up to him with a smile on his face.
Neil Bhatt ( ML's bestie/right hand man)

Ravi looks around, and smiles as he gazes at the landscape before him.
