Chapter thirteen: Beneath the Moonlit Waves.

The sun painted the skies with hues of tangerine and gold as Shubman and Sriya strolled along Marine Drive, their silhouettes dancing against the mesmerizing backdrop of the Arabian Sea.

"Coffee?" He asked.

A gentle breeze carried Shubman's voice to Sriya's ears as they approached a quaint coffee shop nestled by the sea. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the salty scent of the ocean, creating an intoxicating symphony of senses.

"Yes, please. Coffee sounds perfect."

Seated across each other, their conversations flowed like the ebb and flow of the waves, carrying with them a blend of laughter, shared anecdotes, and stolen glances that lingered a tad longer.

"So, what's the story behind the fascination for Marine Drive?" Shubman started.

"It's like a muse, isn't it? The sea... it listens to everyone's whispers, secrets, and stories. It's where I find solace." Sriya said and smiled.

Their words resonated with the rhythm of the waves crashing against the shore, a poetic symphony composing the moments between them.

As the sun dipped into the horizon, casting a golden hue over the sea, Shubman's gaze lingered on Sriya's silhouette, illuminated by the fading light.

"The sea's beauty pales in comparison to yours." He said making her laugh.

Sriya's laughter rang through the air, a melody that danced upon the ocean breeze.

"Flattery won't work on me, Mr. Gill."

But beneath her playful demeanor, a warmth blossomed within her, stirred by Shubman's words.

"Where would you like to go next?" He asked.

"Juhu?"

"Alright. In the car Shetty."

–––––––––––

Their footsteps traced the pathway along the coastline, the sea serenading them with its gentle whispers. Shubman couldn't resist the temptation to tease her gently.

"Afraid of the sea?"

"No! Just... respectful."

Their laughter mingled with the symphony of the waves, painting a canvas of shared moments and unspoken feelings against the backdrop of Mumbai's skyline.

The night embraced the city, the stars above shimmering as the two lingered, savoring the serenity of the sea's whispers, each moment etched into the fabric of their journey.

The moon hung suspended in the indigo sky as Shubman and Sriya continued their walk at the tranquil shores of Juhu Beach. The sounds of crashing waves provided the background symphony to their playful banter.
