[Annika - A, Shivaay - S, Gauri - G, Rudra - Ru]

Shivaay paid a visit to Kiara's house.

Kiara: Hey Shivaay what's up?

S: Kiara, there's something i need to tell you

Kiara: What is it, Shivaay?

S: I... I can't marry you.

Kiara: What! Why?

S: I'm in love with someone else

Kiara: I thought you didn't believe in love?

S: I didn't, but she makes me feel things I've never felt before. I'm sorry you and your family have to go through this because of me. I wish things hadn't turned out this way.

Kiara: Who is it? Who's the lucky woman?

S: Annika

Kiara: Hmm, you guys are quite different.

S: Yeah, I know we are very different. I've thought a lot about it and I only want to be with her.

Kiara: Well shivaay, I'm not gonna hold this against you. In fact I'm glad we waited cause I don't know what I would have done if you had realised these feelings after the wedding.

S: I have to apologize to your parents also

Kiara: Don't worry about my parents, i'll handle them. Have you told her yet?

S: No, I wanted to tell you first

Kiara: Always a gentleman. Well I wish you all the luck. I hope there's someone special for me too

S: Kiara, you are a wonderful person, I'm sure you'll get someone who deserves you much more than I ever did. Thank you so much for understanding and I'm really sorry for putting you through this

Kiara: I'll be fine shivaay, go get her. All the best

Kiara (in her mind): Wow never thought I'd see this day, Shivaay is in love. Miracles do happen. I wish I could also find someone who's crazy about me. Time to have an awkward conversation with mom and dad

The next task for Shivaay was to inform his family. As everyone sat down for tea in the living room

S: I have an announcement to make.

Daadi: What happened, puttar?

S: I called off my engagement with Kiara.

Pinky: What? Why? Did you guys fight?

S: I don't want to marry her, I've spoken to her and she's okay with it

Shakti: But why beta?

S: I cannot spend my life with Kiara because I don't love her

Pinky: Oh my maata! Shivaay, But you didn't even believe in love, why cancel your wedding over this. And people fall in love after marriage also.

S: I know mom, but I can't. Kiara and I won't be happy together.

Pinky: Do you know how difficult it is to find a suitable match, shivaay? So many people want to marry off their daughters with you just for our money. We have to do so many background checks. And kiara was such a nice girl
