Is there a reason why?

Re-watched the episode...and I'm wondering this because no one has mentioned this yet but how come Zoya didn't respond to Adi's "I Love You" with anything...

Is there a reason the CV's perhaps left it out - to plant a seed of doubt in Adi's mind. Will he recall that moment and believe that perhaps Zoya has affection for him but it's still in the friend zone?

Or is it simply in character for Zoya? I don't know, even the most reserved person would say those three words in response to someone who is saying I love you...wouldn't they?

I have given this a thought...Aditya has always personally confessed his feelings to zoya but zoya has always declared her love and concern in front of the world...it can be her character but I think she will confess her feelings to adithya one day in person...that day will be special...may be that is the day when their marriage will be consummated...because adithya initiate things but zoya is the one who completes them...so I will give it a wait...

Okay I too noticed it...I think there's a reason for it as per storyline by the writers...they will put I love u too Aditya wala dialogue after something big even happens n Zoya says it with heart n soul without ADI initiating it...if u watch film sathiya ,there the leads runaway n get married n leave their home n start a new life in new house . So even there viveksV character always said I love u..Rani's character never said back I love you ..until they have huge misunderstanding /fight n Rani's character meets with life/death accident n they realise their life without eachother n misunderstanding is so small infront of their life that Rani's character says I love you finally 😳

I don't know if there's a reason for it but it feels really strange that Zoya never responds to Aditya's 'I love you're with an 'I love you too' but smiles instead. And people might kill me for saying this but I felt really bad for Aditya yesterday when he felt so awkward and guilty when Zoya was drowned in her thoughts about the messages. Aditya has been trying so hard to make things right for Zoya, he is showering her with nothing but love and I was all okay with Zoya being a little distracted because of all the family drama but yesterday in the end, she could have atleast hugged him or made him feel at ease. Poor guy was hoping for romance, got ignored instead.

i think its her character to be not too vocal..but her actions showed it..she shyly turned and started proceeding with the jewellery removal..she looked almost expecting him to touch her..thats her way..to proceed with their marriage completely..and that scene was somehow more beautiful than the mutual i love us...somethings needn't be said when actions speak louder..😃
