Episode 4
Her dad folds his arms, looks at her gently but seriously.
Karthik/FL Dad
You know I'd never bring up something to you unless I really believed in it.
Anvika/FL
You only sound that gentle when you're about to drop a bomb.*suspicious*
Karthik/FL Dad
An old friend of mine... He has a son. A good one. I've seen him grow up.
Karthik/FL Dad
We think he might be a good match for you.
Shalini/FL Mom
We're not getting any younger... and we want to see you with someone who can match your strength.
Anvika just blinks. No snarky comeback. Yet.
Karthik/FL Dad
We've arranged the alliance formally.... They're expecting us tomorrow to see them.
Shalini/FL Mom
Some matches aren't built with sparks - they grow in steady light. Tomorrow... maybe you'll see that light.*soft tone*
The room stays quiet. All eyes on Anvika. Even Vaanya has gone unusually silent
A pause. Amma blinks. Appa lowers the newspaper slightly, surprised.
Anvika/FL
That's a "I heard you." I've got work to do.
She stands, calm but unreadable. Grabs her tablet off the side table. She walks away, leaving the family quietly staring after her no drama, no fuss.
Shalini/FL Mom
...
Did she just say yes? 👀
Karthik/FL Dad
*lowers the newspaper paper like it suddenly on fire.I raised a rebel.Now she's calmly accepting marriage?... Suspicious*
Vaanya/FL Bestie
*Blink twice*
Tanvi/FL Niece aarviVikram 's daughter
Shruthi/FL Grandma
*Adjusting glasses*is this marriage talk actually working now?🧐
Aarvi/FL Sister
She just walked out like a cliffhanger.
vikram/FL Brother-in-Law
Cool. I blink for two seconds and y'all write the wedding chapter without me.😒
Heavy bass music thumping. Weights clanked in the background, the music heavy and loud. Sweat clung to his jawline.
Advik Rayan/ML
You know, my mom's been acting weird lately.🤨 *lifting weights*
Bhuvanesh/ML Friend / Teammate
*wide-eyed*Ohhh no. dude, is everything okay?? What happened?? What kind of weird?
Advik Rayan/ML
*shrugging*Nothing, She just keeps saying stuff like"I'm getting old... you'll be alone... time waits for no one..."
Bhuvanesh/ML Friend / Teammate
*gasp*😲
BRO
That's it. She's sick. Emotionally. CALL YOUR DAD.
Advik pauses, looks at Bhuvanesh like he's lost his mind
Before Bhuvanesh could reply, Advik's phone buzzes. He checks the screen. Mom Calling
