The next morning, the sun rises and the people of the village woke up before the sun rises. Everyone has started their day but Avni was still sleeping in her room because she was not able to sleep properly last night. Avni stirred in sleep and she stretched her body. Avni opened her eyes and she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. Avni yawned and then she opened her eyes. Avni took her phone from the side table and she saw the time and she sat on the bed.

She thinks.

On the other side, Neil stopped and Avni stopped to see him. Neil turned to Avni.

Neil: Avni, kya hai yeh sab?

Avni was confused.

Avni: Kya, Neil?

Neil: Tum ne humare alliance ke liye haan kar di hai.

Avni was looking at Neil. Avni nodded. She felt strange and awkward. She thought Neil doesn't want their alliance.

Avni: Kya tum yeh nahi chahte?

Neil: Avni, main kya chahta hun, kya nahi, yeh mainay nahi rakhta. Mainay yeh rakhta hai ke tum kya chahti ho.

Avni was about to say.

Neil: Avni, Agar tum ne han kal raat maine jo kaha us ki waja se ki hai to please, Avni, asa mat karo. Tum per kisi bhi tarha ka koi pressure nahi hai, Avni.

Neil took a breath.

Avni: Nahi, Neil, maine kal raat ki waja se yeh decision nahi liya. Han, mere is decision ke piche ki ek waja kal raat ka incident bhi hai.

Neil was looking at Avni.

Avni: Lekin jo tum ne kal raat ko kaha woh nahi balke jo tum ne kal raat ko kiya woh hai mere decision lene ki waja. Neil, tum main woh sari qualities hain jo main mere life partner main chahti hun. Main tum se first-day se impressed thi but main koi bhi decision kisi jaldbazi main nahi lena chahti thi. Humare sath, humari families bhi juri hain main nahi chahti thi ke hum abhi decision le len aur kal ko regret karen aur is ka asar humari families ki saalo purani dosti per bhi ho. Mere mind main bohat se sawal the lekin kal raat jo howa us ke bad mere sare doubts clear ho gaye. Main sure ho gai hun ke tum hi mere perfect match ho. Tum kabhi mera sath nahi choro ge. Kabhi piche nahi hato ge.

Neil was overwhelmed to hear Avni.

Neil:  Avni, are you sure about it? Tum sach main humare alliance ke liye ready ho?

Avni nodded.

Avni: Han, Neil, main ready hun. Neil, maine bohat soch smajh kar yeh decision liya hai, na ke kisi pressure main.

Neil smiled.

Neil: OK.

Avni: Are you ready for our alliance?

Neil smiled.

Neil: Kya kal raat ke bad bhi mujhe is question ka answer dene ki zarorat hai.

Avni blushed. Neil smiled.

Neil: I am ready for it. I really like you.

Neil in mind: Avni, main tumhare liye jo feel karta hun woh like se bohat zyada hai. I love you, Avni. Lekin yeh baat tumhe bata kar main humare bich koi awkwardness create nahi karna chahta. Main apne dil ki baat tumhe bataon ga lekin sahi waqt aane per.

Neil smiled.

Avni came to the living area. Shweta saw Avni and she held Neela maa's arm. Neela maa saw her.

Shweta: Avni.
