"Thank you," she replied, her voice steady despite the storm within her. She shook his hand, and as their eyes met once more, both couldn't help but wonder what fate had in store for them this time.

As they held each other's hand, lost in each other's eyes, memories of their past flashed through their minds. They remembered the days when they enjoyed teasing each other and spent endless hours together, the bond they shared evident in every smile and laugh. The silence in the room was finally broken by Parth, Nitya's brother, who cleared his throat and said, "Hello, I am also here! You are my friend and she is my sister, so you guys can't ignore me like this."
