    INT. TONY’S CAR – EVENING

    “The sky is painted with hues of orange and pink, the setting sun casting a melancholic glow on the journey. The soft hum of the car’s engine and the faint rustling of leaves from outside are the only sounds for a while. Both seem lost in their thoughts, a palpable tension filling the space between them.

    As the car traverses a familiar bridge, Nana’s eyes fixate on the glistening water below. The reflection of the sunset on the water seems to ignite something within her.”

    Nana (voice trembling): “Tony… there’s something I need to say.”

    Tony, sensing the gravity, slows down and parks the car to the side. He turns to face her, his expression one of genuine concern.

    Nana (teary-eyed, struggling with her words): “All these years… I tried so hard to move on, to forget the past. But every song, every place, every memory… they all brought me back to you. Every single day, I hoped, wished, even prayed that maybe… just maybe… fate would have a twist for us, bring us back together.”

    Tony’s face is a mix of shock and realization. He reaches out, gently holding her face, brushing away the tears that have started to flow freely.

    Tony (voice choked with emotion): “Nana… I’ve spent nights lying awake, wondering ‘what if’. You’ve no idea how much I’ve missed… us. The laughter, the fights, the shared dreams…”

    “They lean in, finding solace in a deep, heartfelt embrace. The world outside fades as, for that one moment, it’s just the two of them, united by a bond that time couldn’t sever.”
