Farhan orders food, and they both eat dinner and head home.
Tara goes to her room, and Farhan follows her.
Tara sits on the bed and starts crying.
Farhan, upset, says, "Why do you cry all the time?"
Tara cries, "I want to go to my house."
Farhan, upset, says, "This can't happen... I can't live without you."
Tara cries, "I can't live with you."
Farhan says, "Why can't I? What don't you like? Tell me, I'll change you."
Tara cried - I don't like your behavior, I don't like your anger.
Farhan - Okay, from now on I will talk to you as nicely as possible and I won't get angry either.
Tara cried - It won't happen with you.
Farhan - It will happen, everything will happen...
Farhan - Now you go to sleep.
Tara - You go from here, I'll sleep.
Farhan - What? Why?
Tara - What? Why? Don't do it... go.
Farhan - I'm not going, I told you to go to sleep, then I'll go.
Tara - You just said you'd change yourself, so leave the room.
Farhan - I didn't say I'd change you, but I said I wouldn't come near you.
Tara - I told you I couldn't change you.
Farhan - I'm going... Good night.
Tara - Good night.
Farhan goes to his room.
Tara smiles after he leaves.
Tara smiles - He's absolutely crazy.
Tara also goes to bed and falls asleep.
The next day...
Tara gets up, gets ready, and goes downstairs.
Liza - Good morning, madam.
Tara - Good morning... Did you come here so early in the morning?
Liza - Madam, I don't go home, I stay here.
Tara - Why?
Liza - Sir told me to go home, and if he needs to go out for some work, how can he leave you alone?
Tara - How can I go alone in a house with so many staff?
Liza - Yes, but Sir doesn't want to take any action against you.
Tara - Speaking of your Sir and your Sir...tell me what you said yesterday.
Liza - Sir said I could go home, but he wanted to take you out.
Tara - He's absolutely crazy.
Liza - He's not crazy, he truly loves you.
Tara - Yes, yes, I've seen his love.
Liza - You know, when you were locked in the room and didn't come for dinner, he didn't eat either.
Tara - What?
Liza - Yes, and he slept near your room door all night.
Tara - What, when?
Liza - Yesterday morning, the staff told me that Sir was sleeping outside your door all night. In the morning, the staff woke him up.
Tara becomes silent.
Liza - Madam, please sit down and have breakfast.
Tara - Did you have breakfast?
Liza - No.
Tara - Come sit down and have breakfast too.
Liza - No, Madam, I will do it later; I cannot sit with you.
Tara - Go sit, Liza.
Liza - No, Madam, Sir will get angry.
Tara - I won't.
Farhan comes into the hall.
Farhan - Good morning, what's going on here?
Liza - Good morning, sir.
Tara - I'm asking Liza to sit with me and have breakfast. Do you have a problem with that?
Farhan - Of course not. It's your house, do whatever you want... Liza, go sit down.
Liza - Thank you, sir.
Liza also sits down to have breakfast.
Tara to the staff - Bring tea.
Staff comes with a cup of tea, and the tea spills on Farhan.
Staff scared - s...s...sir, sorry sir, it fell accidentally, sorry sir.
Farhan with a sweet smile - It's okay, only humans make mistakes.
Everyone's mouth remains wide open.
Farhan - I've had my breakfast, you guys have your breakfast, I'll change my clothes and come back.
Farhan goes to change his clothes.
Staff - What happened to sir, am I dreaming?
Tara smiles to herself after listening to everyone.
Farhan comes back after changing his clothes.
Farhan - Have you both had your breakfast?
Liza - Yes sir.
Farhan - Tara, what about you?
Tara - Yes, it's done.
Farhan - Okay, let's go then.
Tara - Where?
Farhan - To go for a walk.
Tara - You went yesterday, I don't have to go today.
Farhan - Let's go.
Tara - Let's go.
Farhan takes Tara to the car, where the driver is standing, his eyes downcast.
Farhan - Listen, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday.
The driver smiles and says, "No problem, sir."
Farhan and Tara get into the car and leave.
Farhan stops the car near a bench.
Farhan - Let's sit and talk.
Tara - What, why here?
Farhan - Ever since I came here, I haven't said anything about wanting to talk to you, I want to know you.
Tara - But... here...
Farhan - But, but, forget it, tell me what you like.
Tara - Living with the family.
Farhan - And?
Tara - My friend Zoya, she talks a lot, but she's kind at heart, and her antics are like children, and I like them very much.
Farhan - Tara, I didn't sit here to hear about your family or Zoya... tell me about yourself so I can get to know you, and you get to know me.
Tara - Okay, you start. Tell me what you like.
Farhan - You... your laughter, your talking, your sleeping, your walking, I like everything about you.
Tara lowered her gaze - how many girlfriends do you have?
Farhan - What do you mean?
Tara - How many girls do you like like me?
Farhan angrily - Are you crazy? Do you think I'm the kind of guy who'd chase girls around? I've never even looked at a girl except you, understand.
Tara, scared, - s...sorry, that's not what I meant.
Farhan, holding Tara's hand, - No, I shouldn't have said sorry, I shouldn't have gotten so angry.
Tara - Please stay like this.
Farhan - what?
Tara - Please don't go back to the way you were before.
Farhan smiling - If you want, I will become like you... If you want, you can take this promise.
Tara smiling - You are..
Farhan - I'm cute.
Laughing, Tara - Very much.
Farhan - What did you say?
Tara - Nothing at all.
Farhan - You're being praised, Farhan Sikandar, what a wonderful thing... Now this Farhan Sikandar is 2.O, you won't get a chance to complain, madam.
Tara - Let's see how long this 2.O lasts.
Farhan - As long as I'm there... As long as I'm there.
Tara - Just stop it.
Farhan - You won't leave me now, will you?
Tara - I want to talk to my family.
Farhan takes out his mobile and gives it to Tara.
Farhan - Let's talk, but only for 5 minutes.
Tara calls Ayan.
Tara, crying, - Hello Ayan, how are you and Mom and Dad?
Ayan - I'm fine, and Mom and Dad are also fine. How are you?
Tara, crying, - I'm fine, everything at home is okay?
Ayan - Yes, Farhan brother sent two servants here. They do all the work, and he also paid my school fees.
Tara - What...
Ayan - Yes, he is very nice.
Farhan says softly - Now put the phone down, or I won't call you again.
Tara - Okay, I'll call you again . Take care of yourself and your parents too... Bye.
Tara gives the mobile back to Farhan.
Tara - Thank you.
Farhan - Are you happy now?
Tara - Yes.
