Following the episode.
Maria: Daniel, you’re aware that I love you, right?
Maria stated with enticing eyes.Daniel moved his gaze away from her and grasped the steering wheel. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly.
Daniel: Maria, the time has passed, and we have done a l-.
But Maria interrupted him in the midst of his speech.
Maria: Daniel, what did we do?
As she asked, she unbuckled her seat belt. Daniel gave her a long stare as she unbuckled her seat belt. But after a minute, he lightly shook his head and said.
Daniel: I’m sorry it’s not possible.
Maria: Why not?
Daniel: I can’t love you, Maria. I’m with Sheetal.
Maria lowered her gaze as soon as she heard Daniel. Daniel, on the other hand, looked at her and attempted to console her.
Daniel: Maria, try to understand. I love Sheetal.
Maria: Did I tell you not to love her?
While looking down at the ground, Maria remarked. When he heard her, Daniel narrowed his eyes and peered at her.
Daniel: What are you talking about?
Daniel asked, his voice puzzled. Maria raised her head and turned to face him.
Maria: Daniel, you may love her as much as you want. I won’t bother you, but I do want you to love me.
She crept up to Daniel and gripped his shirt, just as she had said. She drew him even closer to her. The lips of Daniel and Maria were barely a few inches away.
Their heated breath touched each other in the face.
Maria: I didn’t ask you to cheat on her. I didn’t ask for it. Just love her as much as you do. But Daniel, you must love me as well. Did you forget about our lives and our past?
Maria drew him in even closer. Daniel was staring at her intensely and listening intently to what she had to say. It appeared like Maria had done some sort of magic on him. And this attracted him to her.
Maria: Daniel.
She sweetly called out his name.
Daniel: It’s not right, Maria.
As he clasped Maria’s hand, Daniel remarked.
Maria: wrong? What’s wrong? Daniel, you can have her. And this will be in us. No one will know that. Do you remember the last time you kissed me, Daniel?
Maria whispered as she gently caressed Daniel’s lips.
Maria: these lips were forcefully touching mine and refusing to let go. Do you remember?
Daniel’s gaze was locked on Maria’s as well.
…..
Daniel’s Aside.
When Marisa begins to say things like this, my heart begins to race. I swallowed so hard. Because I am aware of and remember our previous interaction. We kissed each other so passionately and forcefully. That’s something I’ve never forgotten, and I’m not going to forget it now.
And we were on the edge of losing our minds. I asked her to be my first, but her mother interrupted us at that precise moment. But what about now? What’s on my mind? I can’t do that; if Sheetal finds out, she’ll end our relationship. I can’t afford to lose Sheetal right now. She’s a treasure.
….
Daniel abruptly moved his attention away from Maria. When Maria noticed him doing this, she drew her face closer to his neck.
Maria: Every night, Daniel, I thought about our last moment. Every night, I fantasize about you.
Daniel eventually replied with his eyes closed.
Daniel: Maria, it’s nearly impossible at this point.
Maria: Why is that?
As soon as she heard him, she clutched his shirt and pressed herself against him.
Maria: Do you think I’ll tell Sheetal that you’re having an affair with me behind her back? Answer me, Daniel.
Maria was asking him desperately. She asked Daniel a question, but he did not respond.
Maria: I understand what you’re thinking. But listen, I want you just the way you are. I don’t want you to change for the sake of me. I’m aware of your habit. You can’t stay with the same girl for an extended period of time.
As Maria stated, she pushed Daniel back in his seat and sat in hers.
Maria: Daniel, I’ll wait for your response. Just give me the answer when you feel like it. And I can assure you that if you accepted it, Sheetal would be completely unaware of our existence.
……….
Maria’s Aside.
Who knows?
My foot, hmm. Let Daniel accept me first, and then I’ll show her. I’m aware of your tendency, so why did you make a girlfriend? Why? Why are you so concerned about her? I had a good time in London as well, but I didn’t start a committed relationship. Because I had been awaiting your arrival. And now you’re here. You’ve just made a serious girlfriend.
Damn it!
..
Daniel’s point of view.
I heard Maria.
I’m at a loss for words right now. I know I’m attempting to be a terrific boyfriend, as Sheetal desires. Maria is correct; I am not being myself. I am not like this. Why am I trying to change myself? Sheetal, why can’t you love me for who I am?
I gripped the steering wheel tightly and faced Maria. She was standing by the window, staring out. I took a deep breath and started the car.
I don’t know what to say to her since I’m at a loss for words.
Now I’m puzzled. In a split second, Maria puzzled me.

Scenario 1.
I was preparing my notes when someone knocked on my door.
Me: yes.
Auntie: Honey, may I come in?
When I heard Auntie’s voice, I turned around and smiled back.
Me: Auntie, why are you being so formal with me?
Auntie: Because my child is now old enough. She also needs some privacy. That is why I asked for permission.
I smiled and reached out to take her hand in mine. Auntie took my hand in hers and said.
Auntie: Did I disturb you, baby?
Me: of course not, auntie.
Auntie: I’m here to tell you something, sweetie. I know you’re grown enough to understand, and you should be aware of this as well.
As soon as I heard her, I narrowed my eyes and took her hand in mine.
Me: What is it, Auntie?
Auntie paused for a moment before speaking.
Auntie: Baby, I don’t know where I need to start.
