Ruhana is hell scared after the last night  incident, or say, the nightmare. She decides to leave the house, but Vineet scares her that she can't leave the house, as he will keep his eyes on her. She gathers all the courage she has and goes to the office. Her good friend Siya asks about her wellbeing and Ruhana manages to ask her if she(Ruhana) can stay with her(Siya).  Siya agrees and Ruhana thanks her. Meanwhile, Vineet calls Siya and Ruhana in his cabin. They enter the cabin and Siya gives him the file and explains the important pointers while Ruhana stands beside her scaredly. She's fearful but enters the cabin to support Siya. After a little while, Siya and Ruhana turn to move out when Vineet's shrill voice scares Ruhana. He asks her to stay back while aks Siya to leave the room.

Ruhana clenched her fists, not turning towards him. She closes her eyes when she suddenly feels his presence behind her back, so close that she can hear his heartbeat. He holds her wrist tightly and makes her turn towards himself. She turns her face away, she's disgusted with him. The one whom she misunderstood as a kind person turned out to be a beast. She shouldn't have taken his offer. But the wrong is done. It can't be changed. She has to stay away from him, or at least teach him a lesson for hurting her or any women for his own pleasures.

He makes her face himself and she jerks his hands.

"Don't touch me!" She shouted at him

"Don't touch me!" She shouted at him.

"Don't shout! No one is helping you here. You will hurt your throat if you shout. It's better if you keep your mouth shut." Vineet says, his voice still cold like him.

"This is your office, at least think about your reputation

"This is your office, at least think about your reputation. I hope you won't like it if your employees know about your real face. But, they will do, one day. Because the man who thinks about only his pleasure, who can sleep with any woman for profit, is of no good. You're just a burden on this earth. " Ruhana grits her teeth and jerks him hard, such that his grip loosens on her hand and Ruhana manages to rush out of the room while Vineet whines in anger.

*****

Ruhana rushes into the washroom and breaks into tears. She didn't know that he would misbehave with her in the office as well. Somehow, she has to flee away, she has to confine all of it into someone. Maybe, Siya. Ruhana composes herself and after making herself presentable, she walks out of the washroom and takes her seat on her desk. Siya looks at her and finds her scared.
