After seeing everyone she walked to her room only to see Neil sleeping covering his face with duvet. Only she knew he isn't sleeping or could say pretending to sleeping. She went to her side and lay down and called Neil name.

Avni : Neil spill it out. You can't hid from me. I have seen you all day today being gloomy. Say it out. Express your pain.

That's was for him to turn and broke all his walls pain. He hugged her tightly and cried while hugging her. She too let him cry. She knew since he has met Swetha he becomes emotional very much.
