Chapter 3 - Episode 3: “Love, Lies, and a Little Betrayal”amed

Episode 3: "Love, Lies, and a

Scene: Deep in the jungle, beside a small lake. The boys are sitting by the water, drinking beer — full-on boy talk mode.

Ankit (getting a little emotional):

"Bro, remember that girl 'Priya' from college... the one who used to give me gifts all the time?"

Harsh:

"The same one who ran away with your brother?"

Ankit (awkward smile):

"Why are we going into the details, bro?"

(Everyone laughs.)

Kamal (in a calm, nostalgic tone):

"There was only one girl in my life... Anjali. She left me for her career. Today, she's a CEO... and I'm here, drinking beer in a jungle."

Ajit (shouting from a distance):

"At least you had love once... I only got betrayal."

Harsh (taking a big sip of beer):

"Honestly, I could never fall in love... every time a girl said yes to me, I got confused — like, did she really say yes?"

Ankit:

"Girls don't say yes to your face. They say eww to your face!"

(Laughter erupts again. Nexus, meanwhile, seems quietly thoughtful.)

Nexus:

"I met Sakshi... and from that moment on, I just kept falling for her. Never even looked at another girl."

(Just then, Sakshi appears in the distance — wearing a flowing dress, the breeze gently playing with her hair, sunlight dancing through it. The boys stare in slow motion.)

Ankit (whispering):

"I thought you were a ghost hunter... but looks like you caught a fairy instead."

Harsh:

"If I had a wife like her... I'd have never fallen in love with a bottle."

Kamal (respectfully):

"Looking at Sakshi makes me believe everyone has a soulmate... except me."

(Sakshi walks over, smiling and greeting everyone. There's a special charm in her eyes — confident, graceful, yet hiding something unspoken.)

Sakshi (softly to Nexus):

"What were you guys talking about?"

Nexus (with a small smile):

"Just old stories... now just memories."

(Ankit, hiding a bit of envy, crushes his beer can a little harder than necessary.)

Ankit (muttering):

"If you're gonna have a wife, have one like her... and if you want luck, get Nexus-level luck. Tchh!"

Scene Ends:

The boys take a group selfie — the caption: "Reunion in the Wild"

But in the corner of the photo, barely noticeable, a shadowy figure appears — blurry and hidden in the trees.

For the first time... the mystery enters the frame.
