[Scene: Morning. College campus. Alvira sits under a tree with her phone open, rereading the article.]
Alvira (thinking):
"Why now? After all these years of loving him silently... why now does he speak about Islam?"
[Zaina and Yasmine walk toward her, noticing the daze in her eyes.]
Zaina:
"You haven't blinked in five minutes. Earth to Alvi?"
Alvira (still staring at phone):
"Did you read the full interview? He literally said he's been reflecting a lot… about faith… and meaning."
Yasmine (sits beside her):
"I did. It's wild. I mean, celebrities say a lot of stuff, but the way he spoke—it sounded sincere."
Zaina:
"What if... that was your sign?"
Alvira (shakes head):
"No, Za. That's just coincidence. I'm not going to romanticize it."
Zaina (quietly):
"But... isn't that what faith is? Believing in signs others call coincidence?"
[Scene: Alvira's dorm room. She opens her Quran app. Soft recitation plays in background. She writes in her journal.]
Alvira (writing):
"Today, for the first time, I didn't cry for him. I cried because I felt like You were listening. Ya Allah... if this path is wrong, erase the footprints. But if it's mine, guide me to walk it with grace."
[Scene: Classroom. A professor discusses global influence of culture and media.]
Professor:
"...and so, pop culture influences not just trends, but sometimes even spiritual exploration."
[Alvira looks up. Her pen freezes.]
Professor (continues):
"An interesting case recently involved a global artist who mentioned studying different religions. He even expressed curiosity about Islam."
[A few students glance at Alvira. She lowers her eyes.]
Alvira (to herself):
"This can't be real. Again?"
[Scene: Break time. Alvira alone in college masjid. She stares at the prayer rug.]
Narration (Alvira thinking):
"He's changing… or maybe he's just searching. But if he ever walks the path of truth... not for me, but for Allah... wouldn't that be a miracle worth praying for?"
[Scene: Evening. Hostel common area. Girls chatting. Alvira scrolls her phone. She finds a recent fan Q&A post from the idol.]
Fan Comment:
> "If you could visit any place in the world that brings peace, where would it be?"
His Answer (translated):
> "Maybe somewhere with mosques. The adhan sounds calming. Like something calling your soul."
[Alvira drops the phone. Zaina picks it up.]
Zaina:
"Girl. Did he—?"
Alvira (voice shaking):
"He mentioned adhan… He knows the word."
Yasmine (half-joking):
"Okay this is no longer just signs, this is a glowing billboard with fireworks."
[Scene: Flashback montage of Alvira's earlier years—crying secretly after prayers, watching concerts silently at night, saving up for merch, hiding her obsession, journaling dreams.]
Narration (Alvira's thoughts):
"It's been years. I loved him when he didn't even love himself. I prayed for his peace. Not his fame. Just peace. And maybe... just maybe... Allah accepted that dua in a way I never imagined."
[Scene: Night. Alvira stands on her dorm balcony, city lights flickering below. She whispers softly into the wind.]
Alvira:
"I'm not asking for him anymore. I just... want him to find the truth. Even if I stay hidden in his story. That's enough for me."
[Scene: Final shot of the episode. A phone screen. A headline: "Idol Announces Hiatus to Travel and Reflect. Says He's Seeking Spiritual Growth."]
Alvira's Voice (soft prayer):
"Guide him, Ya Allah... even if he never knows who prayed for him."
