The scene begins with Miilee telling Vishal Rastogi that she is coming back. Vishal Rastogi is in a very bad mood. He mutters to himself, "This small fry is trying to teach me how things are done. I will see how she comes back."
Miilee is on stage and she is preparing to speak to the audience. She says, "Thanks a lot. I want to say that the credit goes to my sister Ramona and she is the real owner of this trophy. This is dedicated to her." Ramona is very happy.
She further adds, "I want to thank Rajput College for giving us a platform to perform our play." Aoni is standing at the side of the stage. He is looking at her and giving her lovey-dovey smiles.
"I am happy that you have all liked Tara and Abheer's story but Tara and Abheer is just a story, not reality so it has already ended… forever," she continues. "And friends, I know that you have kept a party for us however we have to get back to Shimla immediately," she laments.
The crowd roars. They disagree vehemently. They keep insisting for her to stay for the party. Miilee looks dumbfounded but later relents.
"Okay, if you insist, tomorrow we will come for the party," she says. Everyone is happy. They clap and chant her name yet again.
As Miilee leaves the stage, Aoni looks very sad at her words.
Aoni gets a call. It's Vishal Rastogi. He says, "So you finally have the time to entertain my calls." To which Aoni replies, "I'm quite busy now. I will call you later."
He is about to put down the phone when Vishal Rastogi says, "Don't listen to Miilee. It will turn out to be bad for you. Listen, Miilee must not come back ever… otherwise, you don't think of coming back as well."
Aoni is silent for a while before he answers, "Alright, tonight will be the night I make my decisions whether or not to change my destiny or follow it." He leaves.
Vishal Rastogi mutters to himself once more, "Because of this Miilee, my trusted pawn is going against me but in this game of life, we must make use of people." [ I don't know what he means by this. 😕 ]
Miilee is walking along the corridor when she bumps into Aoni. He smiles at her and says, "You wanted Tara and Abheer to remain a story? Fine, it's finished. Congratulations for winning the trophy." He holds out his hand.
Miilee shakes it and says thanks. With his other hand, he clasps hers and says, "Tara and Abheer's story has ended. We can start Miilee and Aoni's story."
Miilee looks quite fed up. "There's nothing between Aoni and Miilee. What story is there?!" she snaps. Ramona comes along and Miilee leaves.
Ramona kissed Aoni on the cheeks 😡 and congratulates him. They hug. Just a friendly hug, might I add! 😡
"Thanks for giving me the card," she says. Aoni looks puzzled.
"What card?" he asks. "I did not give you any card." he declares.
Ramona smiles and says, "Okay, now stop acting. You are just pretending."
Aoni seems amused. "Really! I don't have any reason to give you a card," he says. And Poor Poor Swami was there hearing all this. He had tears in his eyes! 😭
"Okay fine! During the play, how could you have said Miilee's name instead of Tara's? That was such a big mistake," she insists.
"I don't know how or what happened. I still have much to say. Give me some time and this whole drama will come to an end soon," Aoni replies while our poor Swami is still listening in.
Aoni leaves. Ramona sees Swami and he quickly wipes away his tears. She says, "You see Swami, Aoni is not owning up to the fact that he gave me the card."
Swami nods and says, "Yes, it must only have been Aoni who gave you the card. In love, this all happens," and then he pauses before adding, "Misunderstandings can happen." I felt so sad for him okay. 😔
Miilee enters her room and switches on the lights. She is suddenly horrified. Aoni is in her room. He stands up as Miilee asks him what he is doing in her room. She asks if he has lost his mind.
Aoni holds her hand. She says, "Aoni, I am very sleepy. Please leave my hand and go back to your room."
"No," he says. "I have many things I need to tell you and you need to listen to me," he adds.
Miilee tries to be amused. She says, "Do not attempt to tell me anything I might just laugh at. Right now, I'm too sleepy to laugh. Go away!" 😔
Aoni insists and tells her he needs to make a decision today. "Please let me have my say and don't ask me any new questions. Just listen. I just want to tell you that I love you a lot, Miilee," he rambles.
"I love you a lot," he says while Ramona, who very conveniently happened to be standing somewhere strategic to listen to them, becomes shocked. "I really love you. If you don't believe, look here! Look at my arm," and Aoni shows her his perfect left arm with her name inscribed on it. "Now, do you believe me? Do you believe in my love?" he asks.
Miilee looks extremely taken aback. "You have had your say. Okay now, good night. Leave!" she says.
"I told you such a huge thing and there's no reaction from you? Reject me, insult me but please give me a response," our poor Aoni begs heartless Miilee.
"I did! I told you good night!" Miilee tries to evade the issue.
Aoni, with tears threatening to spill from his soulful eyes says, "Don't you feel the slightest bit for me?"
"No!" Miilee answers. "But don't think that I am stone-hearted. I also have the ability to love but right now I have lots of work so I have no time for love… or lovers," she replies heartlessly.
Aoni leaves, a sad man. Miilee sees Ramona crying and wonders why she was so upset.
Ramona is crying while she is hurrying back to her room. Swami literally bumps into her. "What happened?" he asks, concern etched in his voice. "Nothing! Leave me alone. Go away. I beg of you!" Ramona cries.
Swami exits sadly.
Vishal Ratogi's cellphone rings. It's Ramona and she is crying her heart out. Vishal Rastogi is alarmed. "What happened?" he asks, panicked.
"Dad, I want something from you!" she sobs. "You are my life. I will give you whatever you want. Just state your demands," he says.
"I want Aoni! I love him! Give him to me! I love him!" she says and Vishal Rastogi's face contorts with shock.
"Ramona, whatever you want you will get. But you want something so small? So irrelevant?" Vishal Rastogi asks.
"I don't know anything. I just want Aoni. I love him!" she throws a tantrum.
"So what's the problem?" Vishal Rastogi asks her. "He doesn't love me! He loves someone else!" Ramona yells.
Vishal Rastogi gets indignant. "Who dares come in your way? Who is this thorn?" he asks. [I know I know.. very dramabaazi… but I'm trying to give the actual dialogue.. hehehehehe]
"Miilee! Aoni loves Miilee! Not me!" she wails. Miilee happens to be standing outside and she hears everything. She gets flashbacks of Aoni and his declaration in the jungle.
Tomorrow: Aoni, in very scary mode [outlandish shirt and slick back-combed hairstyle] tells Miilee, "Today, I will distance myself from you. You won't have any more misunderstandings nor will I either!"
He burns Miilee's name on his arm. That was nasty. Fire practically erupted out of his arm. Miilee's eyes bulged out and she froze as if she is rooted to the ground.

Great, Miilee doesn't feel for Aoni. What else can go wrong?!!😭 😭
