This can't be real!
Isha is in her room writing her diary.
Ishani/Fl
Dear Diary,
Today, I met him. The moment my eyes met his, everything went downhill. I swear on my life, I was over him. But just like every single time, the feelings come rushing back. I have to put an end to this 15 year long crush. I'm even gonna get married. I hope I end up with a nice guy.
Swastik/Fl bro
Umm... Dad's calling you downstairs.
Ishani/Fl
Can I not come? I really don't want to. Tell him I'm asleep.
Swastik/Fl bro
He's going to tell you something about the marriage. I think you have to hear it.
Swastik/Fl bro
If you hate it so much, fight! I'll be there for you. And we'll talk to him and try to make him understand.
Swastik/Fl bro
Dad is not heartless. He is convincible. Let's give it a try okay?
Swastik/Fl bro
Yeahh. Okay!
Both of them go to the living room.
Akash/Fl dad
Ishu beta, come sit here.
She goes and sits beside her dad on the couch.
Akash/Fl dad
So, so you know Sushan uncle? My friend?
Ishani/Fl
Yes dad. We've been to their house a couple of times.
How could she not remember. Every single second of it is etched in her head for eternity.
Akash/Fl dad
You know he has a son. Nihith. So both of us thought, it'd be really great to get you both married. And don't worry, everyone there will treat you like their own daughter. And Nihith is also a good person. What do you think?
Ishani froze. She might have heard wrong cause she couldn't believe what her father was saying. She looks at him dumbfounded.
Rani/Fl mom
What's there to think? She'll say yes! We won't find a match like them.
Swastik/Fl bro
Mom! Let her decide for herself.
All three of them look at her.
Ishani/Fl
Dad, if you believe he's right for me. I'll go along with it.
Akash/Fl dad
That's my daughter. I know she'll say yes.
Rani/Fl mom
I'll make your favourite tamarind rice tomorrow!!
Ishani still couldn't believe anything.
Swastik/Fl bro
Ishani are you sure?
Ishani/Fl
I... I don't know.
