INT. Gagan's Apartment - Morning
A few weeks later Gagan is back at his desk looking at his laptop screen, he's been trying to write but his mind keeps wandering back to Ananya, he closes his laptop frustrated with his lack of focus
He stands up looking around the room, he picks up his phone and is about to send a message to Ananya but just as he starts typing his phone rings it's Ananya
Gagan: (Surprised, answering the phone) Hey! I was just about to text you
Ananya Gowda: Really? great minds think alike I guess
Gagan: So what's up?
Ananya Gowda: I was just thinking we should do something fun, maybe go somewhere new
Gagan: Yeah? what do you have in mind?
Ananya Gowda: I was thinking how about we go on a trip? somewhere outside the city, I know this amazing spot near Nandi Hills, it's peaceful and the view is incredible
Gagan: That sounds perfect, I could use a break from the city
Ananya Gowda: Great! let's plan it for this weekend then
Gagan: Sounds good, looking forward to it
Ananya Gowda: Me too! see soon Gagan
They hang up and Gagan puts the phone down feeling excited for the weekend
EXT. Nandi Hills
It's the weekend and Gagan and Ananya are standing on a hillside looking at a breathtaking view of the city below, Ananya points out a few landmarks in the distance as they walk together
Ananya Gowda: Looks, you see the entire city from up here, isn't it amazing
Gagan: it's incredible I needed this
Ananya looks at Gagan totally in love
Ananya Gowda: I'm glad you came, it's nice getting away from everything for a while, right
Gagan: Yeah it's been a while since I've felt this calm
They continue walking, Ananya suddenly stops walking and looks directly at Gagan
Ananya Gowda: Gagan can I ask you something?
Gagan: Of course what is it
Ananya Gowda: Do you ever think about us? I mean, do you think there's something more here then just friendship?
Gagan walks away as if he didn't hear anything at all, making Ananya think that she ruined her friendship by asking him that

EXT. Nandi Hills - Sunset
The sun is beginning to set, Gagan and Ananya are sitting on a large rock, looking at the breathtaking view of the city as the sky turns orange, they both are quite last in their thoughts
Gagan: It's so beautiful here, I'm glad we came
Ananya Gowda: (Sad) Yeah it's perfect just what I needed
Ananya is sad because Gagan didn't give her an answer and thinks she ruined her friendship, Gagan looks at Ananya
Gagan: Ananya, I've been thinking a lot about what you asked earlier... about us
Ananya Gowda: Yeah?
Gagan: I'm sorry I left you hanging (he pauses for a bit) I like you Ananya!
Ananya Gowda: What (happy)
Gagan: Wait, wait, jus just wait alright, let me finish speaking, the moment I started reading your book I started falling in love with you, the way you write, the way you talk and everything about you felt something special, every time we hang out together I wanted to say I like you but I was too afraid to say it because I thought you wouldn't feel the same way and that's the end of our friendship, I was going to confess my feelings to you I don't know when but I knew I was going to say it one day but all of a sudden you just dropped a nuke on me indirectly saying you like me and I left you because my brain went 360, seriously, my brain went 360 a part of me said I'm just daydreaming and another part of me said it's real, I had to leave just to make sure that what's happening right now real and not me daydreaming
Ananya Gowda: (Smiling) I'm glad to hear that, I've been feeling the same way too but I wasn't sure if you felt it too
Gagan holds Ananya's hand, she looks at him with surprise and happiness
Gagan: I think there's something special between us, I don't want to rush anything, but I want us to be open about what we feel
Ananya Gowda: (Squeezing his hands) I agree, I want to see where this goes, I feel like we have something real here
Gagan: So what do we do now?
Ananya Gowda: (Shyness) Will for starters we kiss
Gagan smiles and leans in and kisses her, the sun continues to set making a golden light
Cut to
INT. Coffee Shop
Ananya Gowda: So how's the new chapter coming along?
Gagan: It's coming along great, I've been more inspired lately, maybe it's because of... well you
Ananya Gowda: (Blushes) Oh please, you're just trying to get on my good side
Gagan: Maybe a little but seriously, having you in my life has made a huge difference
Ananya reaches her hand across the table and grabs Gagan's hands
Ananya Gowda: I feel the same way, I'm really happy we're together
The End Of Chapter 12...
