Aarav is surprised to see Karan there. Karan welcomes him with a smile, but there's a tension in the air. **KARAN** (smirking) Aarav, itne saalon baad tumse milke acha laga. Maine socha hum purani baatein bhool ke nayi shuruaat kar sakte hain. Aarav hesitantly shakes Karan’s hand, hiding his confusion. **AARAV** (suspicious) Bilkul, Karan. Nayi shuruaat… **CUT TO:** **INT. BEACH HOUSE - LATER THAT NIGHT** Aarav overhears a conversation between Maaya and Karan, realizing the truth. **MAAYA** (emotional) Mujhe laga tha main use samajh paungi, lekin tumhara plan… **KARAN** (interrupting) Plan sirf ek hi tha – usse uske kiye ki sazaa dilana. Aarav, devastated, steps back, unseen. He realizes he's been played. **FADE OUT.** **FADE IN:** **INT. BEACH - NIGHT** Aarav, alone on the beach, stares at the ocean, his world collapsing around him. Karan approaches him. **KARAN** (taunting) Har cheez ka hisaab hota hai, Aarav. Tumne mere sapne chheen liye the, ab main tumhara sab kuch chheen lunga. Aarav, broken and defeated, understands the weight of his actions. **AARAV** (whispering) Bhaagy ke darpan mein, maine sirf apne aap ko dekha tha. **FADE OUT.** **THE END**
