Morning sunlight filled the Malhotra mansion with hope.

Aman walked down the stairs with steady steps, his heart racing faster than his pace. He was dressed in a crisp white shirt, black trousers, and a perfectly fitted coat. Confidence reflected in his posture, while love shone quietly in his eyes. Today, he wasn’t just a powerful businessman—he was a man about to confess his heart.

His family watched him with warm smiles.

Ahana (excited):

“I’m so happy, bhai. You’ve finally decided to propose to her. I’m sure she’ll accept your love. All the best!” 👍🏻

Aman (smiling softly):

“Thank you.”

Veer:

“All the best, Aman.” 👍🏻

Neha (cheerfully):

“All the best, mamu!” 👍🏻

Aman bent down, kissed Neha’s forehead, and smiled.

Aman:

“Thank you, Veer… and thank you, my Sweety.”

He took blessings from his parents and left, carrying dreams that felt closer than ever.

At the College

Aman’s car stopped near the college gate. He stepped out, holding a bouquet of red roses. The small ring box rested safely in his pocket—close to his heart.

He looked around.

And then… he saw her.

Standing alone at the college gate, waiting for someone. The campus was almost empty. A gentle breeze played with her hair, making it dance around her innocent face. She looked delicate, pure, and breathtakingly beautiful.

A smile slowly spread across Aman’s face.

He walked toward her.

Roshni’s eyes searched the road—until they met his.

For a few silent seconds, the world stopped.

She was Roshni Shrivastav.

Aman:

“Hi…”

Roshni (nervously):

“Hi… you’re here?”

Aman:

“Yes… I came to meet you.”

Roshni (confused):

“To meet me?”

Aman:

“There’s something I need to talk about.”

Roshni:

“Okay… say it.”

Aman:

“Can we talk somewhere else?”

She nodded hesitantly.

They walked together until they reached a quiet, empty path.

Roshni stopped and looked at him.

Roshni:

“What did you want to tell me?”

Aman took a deep breath.

He went down on one knee.

He held out the bouquet… and the ring.

Roshni froze, shock flashing across her face. 😲

Aman (with a trembling heart):

“I love you, Roshni.”

Her hands trembled. Her breath caught.

Roshni (stammering):

“Y-you… what are you saying?”

“Do you… love me?”

Aman stood up, his voice steady yet emotional.

Aman:

“If you ask me how much I love you, I won’t be able to measure it.”

“If you ask me how, I won’t be able to explain it.”

“But as long as my heart beats, I will love you.”

“I love you… endlessly. Forever.” ❤️

Roshni took a step back, fear rising in her eyes.

Aman:

“I’m not in a hurry. Take your time.”

“But I want your answer to be yes.”

“And don’t worry about your parents—I’ll talk to them.”

Her heart began to race. Fear gripped her chest. 😨

Aman (smiling softly):

“I’m waiting for your reply.”

Roshni swallowed hard.

Roshni (nervously):

“I… respect your feelings, but…”

“You don’t need to talk to my parents.”

“Because… I can’t accept you.” 😥

Aman’s expression changed instantly.

His eyes darkened.

Aman:

“Why?”

“Why can’t you accept me or my love?”

Roshni:

“I… don’t think it’s necessary to tell you.”

“I’m sorry… but I don’t love you.”

“I hope you understand.”

She turned to leave.

Aman grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

Roshni gasped in fear.

Aman (angrily):

“You can’t go without answering me!”

Roshni (struggling):

“Leave me! Please… leave me!” 🥺

Aman:

“What’s wrong with me?”

“I belong to a respected family.”

“I have money, power, success—everything!”

“I don’t have bad habits.”

“Since the day I loved you, my eyes never looked at anyone else!”

“You can’t say no to me—I love you!”

Roshni (firmly):

“Love doesn’t work like that.”

“Just because you love me doesn’t mean I have to love you.”

“I don’t love you.”

Aman (shouting):

“Why don’t you love me?!”

Roshni (voice shaking):

“Because… I love someone else.”

The ground slipped from beneath Aman’s feet.

His grip loosened.

His breath stopped.

His heart shattered. 💔

Aman:

“This can’t be true…”

“I dreamed of spending my entire life with you…”

Roshni:

“And I’ve dreamed of living my life with my love.”

At that moment, a bike stopped near them.

The rider wore a helmet—his face hidden.

Mr. Unknown:

“Roshni…”

Roshni:

“Please forget me.”

“I want to live freely… without fear.”

She sat on the bike and left.

Aman stood there, unmoving.

Tears filled his eyes.

Rain began to fall.

And once again… he stood alone, completely broken. 💔🥺

Flashback Ends

Back in the present, Aman locked himself in his room. He needed solitude.

Meanwhile, Roshni sat in a coffee shop with the unknown man.

Roshni:

“Raj… I can’t meet you secretly anymore.”

“If Papa finds out, he’ll kill both of us.”

So yes—Mr. Unknown had introduced himself as Raj.

But it wasn’t his real name.

Raj:

“Then let’s get married.”

“Once we’re married, your father won’t be able to do anything.”

Roshni (panicked):

“Run away and get married?”

“Isn’t that wrong?”

Raj:

“Your parents will never accept me.”

“If they find out, we’re finished.”

“It’s better to leave and start a new life.”

Confused and frightened, Roshni took a decision within seconds.

Roshni:

“Okay… we’ll get married and leave.”

Raj’s eyes gleamed with happiness.

Raj:

“I don’t have money right now…”

Roshni:

“Don’t worry.”

“I have jewellery. I’ll bring money.”

Raj:

“Tonight. I’ll wait outside your house.”

That Night

At Malhotra mansion, Aman skipped dinner.

Reva tried to comfort him, but his heart refused to heal.

On the other side…

Roshni packed her bag quietly.

At 2:30 a.m., she placed a letter on her bed:

Dad,

I love someone and want to live with him forever.

You will never accept us, so I’m leaving.

Please don’t look for me.

Your daughter, Roshni.

With tears in her eyes, she looked at her sleeping parents one last time…

Then walked away.

Raj was waiting.

She sat on the bike.

And disappeared into the darkness.
