Khushi tucks him in and holds his face in both hands.

Smiles. And caresses him.

He rests his face on her chest. On her dupatta and hides himself. She holds her tight into deep embrace. Pats his back with on hand and sooths his hair down with another.

Arnav holds her back with both hands, soft and gentle like he is holding a very delicate yarn of silk.

KHUSHI: I LOVE YOU.

ARNAV: I LOVE YOU TOO.

Time: 4. 37 in the morning''''.Khushi sheds on more tear '.of love and kisses his hair and places her head on top of his.

Smiles and shuts her eyes.
