Flashback — Wedding Escape
The sun was shining bright on the wedding hall, flowers everywhere, music playing… but Sara and Radhika? Hah! Both were full on running for their lives — from their own weddings!
"Radhika! Come on! Come on! Now or never!" Sara shouted, grabbing Radhika's hand and pulling her toward the exit. Her dress flared dramatically, like a K-drama action scene.
Radhika, panting but with a cheeky smirk, said:
"Yaar… seriously? We're running from our own weddings? Anyway, nobody can stop me!"
Sara laughed, smirking:
"Yes yaar! Nobody can force us! Not today, not ever!"
They dashed through the hall, dodging guests and relatives, narrowly avoiding flashes from photographers' cameras.
Veils and hair flying, both were laughing, cheeky expressions on their faces, full masti mode.
"Wait! One minute!" a shocked groom shouted, but Sara and Radhika ignored him and bolted toward the exit.
"Radhika, this dress… I almost tripped!" Sara couldn't stop laughing.
"Chill yaar, the thrill of an adventure is totally worth it!" Radhika replied with a cheeky smile.
And just like that, both were enjoying their freedom — laughing, running, full mischief mode.
But then… suddenly, the boys appeared right in front of them, perfectly timed, like the universe had planned it.
Sara flicked her hair and gave a cheeky grin:
"Oh… and who just showed up?"
Radhika smirked, whispering:
"Looks like World War 2 is about to start!"
Both the girls and the boys — a perfect storm of chaos, fun, and a little tension — all in one place.

Present Day — Café Onion
The sun shone brightly over Seoul, a slightly cold breeze brushing past the streets of Seongsu. Coffee aroma and soft chatter filled the air.
Inside Café Onion, Ayaan (23), Radhika's older brother, tapped his fingers impatiently on the table.
"Yaar, Sara aur Zayan kya NASA ke rocket mein chadh gaye? Itna late toh chand par pohonchnay wale bhi nahi hote!"
Across the table, Radhika (21) sipped her iced coffee calmly.
"Relax, bas aa rahe hain," she said, sunlight glinting off her hair.
Ayaan groaned internally.
"Bas aa rahe hain? Haan haan… ab yeh Hum Aa Rahe Hain 2.0 movie bana ke dikhayenge!"
He imagined Sara (20) and Zayan (23) running in slow motion, hair blowing like in a K-drama poster.

WHOOSH!
The café door burst open. Sara and Zayan entered dramatically, hair flying, panting from their rush.
"Ek aunty ki cycle ki wajah se late ho gaye!" Sara said, gasping.
Radhika helped her sit. "Chill, just drink water."
Zayan sat, rolling his eyes. Sara gave him a playful shove.
Ayaan, meanwhile, stared blankly into space.
"Bhai… kya ho gaya?" Zayan nudged him.
"Woh aunty… meri school mein padhaati thi. Ek din maine usko dekha… aur fail ho gaya!" Ayaan said dramatically.
Zayan, deadpan:
"Bhai, woh Fast & Furious ki lost member lag rahi thi."
Ayaan flailed his hands.
"Ek aunty cycle pe chali aur inka GPS crash ho gaya?! Fast & Furious: Aunty Drift!"
Radhika laughed.
"Matlab ek cycle ne tum dono ko literally race mein hara diya?"
Sara pouted.
"Next time main apni bike le aungi, Zayan!"
Zayan rolled his eyes.
"Aur phir tum dono aunty ke samne race lagao ge?"
Ayaan shouted dramatically,
"Next time, we're walking! Walking is faster!"

A waiter passed by, perfectly timed.
Sara giggled, teasing:
"Radhika, tu ne dekha? Waiter ka hairstyle jaise kisi ne socket mein finger daal di ho!"
Radhika laughed softly.
"Shhh Sara! Dheere bol, wo sun lega. Phir sugar ki jagah namak daal dega coffee mein!"
The four laughed together, the café buzzing with warmth and chaos.

Ayaan's mind wandered… Sara is so fast, it's unfair.
Zayan glanced at Radhika, thinking, How is she always so calm?
Neither of the girls noticed their brothers' little crushes yet.
The cold breeze from the café door brushed past them, and the sun dipped lower.
It felt like a perfect evening… until a mysterious shadow outside the window caught Ayaan's attention.
He leaned forward, squinting.
"Did anyone else see that?" he whispered.
Sara and Zayan glanced at him curiously.
Radhika shrugged.
"Probably just the wind…"
But Ayaan wasn't convinced. Something told him this evening was just the beginning of chaos, laughter, and surprises.
And with that thought, the four of them sipped their coffee, unaware that their ordinary café evening was about to turn extraordinary
