PENTHOUSE - 1

NAMIT'S CABIN:

Ragini barged inside namit's cabin knowing well he is the only person who can track down sanskaar without causing any drama as she knew he was an expert in this field given that he had hacked sanskaar's phone several times in the past just to piss him off. She was hoping he could do something and at least find his mobile location so that she can find him and talk to him all for once. She was determined to talk to sanskaar this time to know what was happening and to end all this chain of hurt, suffering and misunderstandings.

Namit was expecting her arrival, but he didn't expect her to visit him this soon. It was a bit of surprise for him as well. Seem like it was day full of unexpected surprises. He knew sanskaar was missing from last night all courtesy of lakshya and he was already on his mission to track this pig-headed friend of his and bring him back. He was already pissed with the drama and tantrums of both these stupid persons, and he was in no mood to witness anymore episodes of their complicated relationship. Before ragini could even open her mouth, her phone beeped indicating someone texted. She immediately checked her phone in case lakshya texted her anything regarding sanskaar but she saw a text from namit which was actually a location link of someone. She looked up from her phone screen only to see him already getting up from his chair and ready to leave.

R: Namit

N: Save it ragini. I don't have time for all this.

R: Won't you even wanna know what happened this time?

N: I don't wanna know what you did or what he did this time. I already have enough on my plate right now and I can't babysit you two grown-ups anymore. Grow up you two and sort it all out before it ruins both of you. I also think I have done the work you wanted me to so go and don't waste any more time ragini, you have already wasted a lot for God sake.

Namit left after saying what he had in his mind. He really wanted to follow ragini and go see sanskaar himself but he knew he would say things he would never in his senses so he decided that she should be the one facing sanskaar.

Ragini immediately followed the location and soon she reached the huge building which was located almost at the outskirt of the city away from normal population. It took her no second guessing why sanskaar chose such a place or what was he doing here.

SANSKAAR'S PENTHOUSE:

As she reached the entrance, she saw the door was locked. There was no other way to enter the building. So she started ringing the call bell continuously to get any response but she never got any reply. She was growing restless as the time was passing but nothing was in her hands. So she decided to wait outside till he himself comes out. There was not doubt that he wasn't inside as his car was parked right outside the entrance.

Minutes passed into hours and soon it was getting dark still there was no response from sanskaar. Ragini grew tired of waiting and she dozed off at the entrance near the main door. She was a mess with her hair all scattered on her face and her eyes were puffy with the continuous crying she did for the past few hours. Irony both were punishing themselves for each other yet they were the cause of either's pain.

It was almost night when sanskaar woke up with a nasty hangover and extreme headache. The whole room was spinning and he coul not even stand properly on his feets. Soon everything hit him back again and he grew more angry at himself for letting her affect him this way again and again. He wanted this anger to go away before facing anyone else so he decided to finally text lakshya that he won't be coming home for a day or two as he is busy with some work. He saw many calls and texts from almost a dozen people but as soon as he saw her name, hurt and anger flashed back and he threw his phone away breaking it into a hundred pieces. He never understood why she pretended to care when clearly, she doesn't have any feelings for him. She was just like any other girl who was with him only for his name and money.

The weather was slowly changing, and it looked like it will rain soon. Sanskaar was hungry as he had eaten nothing for almost 2 days, so he picked his car keys and decided to get something to eat as well as few more bottles of alcohol as he has almost emptied the whole stock. As soon as he opened the main door, he saw someone falling on the floor near his legs. He immediately jumped back totally unprepared and surprised at such happening. After staring at the fallen figure for almost a minute he realized he should help that person rather than acting like a jerk, so he kneeled near the person and patted to wake him/her up. It was almost dark, and he literally could not see who the person was. After thinking for a while, he decided to let that person in and stay for the night. He got up to his feet and turned the lights on to avoid any more mishap and ran back to the person at the entrance. With the lights on he could see it was a girl who was passed out at his entrance and that made him even more sick but had he any more choice left. The weather was already bad enough to scare her away and as if God heard his plans, it started raining as well. Perfect, that's what he thought. He went near the girl and patted her once again in case she regains her consciousness but there was no response. Suddenly he wanted to just see her face for once. He had no clue why was it that way, but he justified it with the remark that he have the right to at least know who is he gonna help at least. He picked her head up with at most care and placed it on his lap. He had no idea why was he doing it for a complete stranger but he just felt it the right thing to do at that moment. As soon as removed those damn hair strands from her face to get a clear view, he froze. He couldn't believe if what was he seeing was truth or it was some kind of sick joke his mind was playing, but a part of him was relieved to see her this close without any disturbances. Maybe for a while he was willing to let go of every grudge and hatred towards her just to feel her this close no matter if this was a dream. He picked her up in his arms and carried her to his bedroom kicking the door closed in the way.

PRECAP: So you love me or you just don't hate me enough to stop loving me?
