Sidd held her hands gripping tighter than before. She keenly looked into his eyes. He raised his eyebrow demanding her to share things rather than keeping it in her heart only.

"Is everything alright at home ?' asked Siddharth as he had observed her whenever she is upset regarding family.

"Mom wants me to find a well-paid job. A good salary from which she can use where ever she wants but I being the worst daughter cannot even give this much," explained Avneet as she almost cried at the end. She looked down as tears flew from her eyes.

"Hey, it's fine. I can help you, I have a solution." said Sidd concluding the answer to her problem squeezing her hands even tighter. She looked up at him as the luckiest person in this whole world.

"You have it. What's that ?" asked Avneet becoming happy as she wiped her tears. Siddharth signed before speaking.

"You can work at my uncle's company in which there is my brother's share too," suggested Siddharth on which Avneet's face fell off a sudden. She took her hands back.

"What are you saying Siddharth? You know right our families aren't aware of our relationship. How will they react ?" spilled Avneet in a concerned tone totally objecting to his point. He understood that she panicked and hence dragged her hands again.

"Hey hey, calm down. No one will come to know until anyone of us tell them. Isn't it ?" asked Siddharth justifying his point. Her face relaxed as she exhaled. Unknown fear haunting her as she tried relaxing herself. She looked at Siddharth who was already waiting for her answer.

"Alright, but no one should know anything regarding us." she kept a condition because it would surely be a trouble if it discloses, not for her professional life but her family life too, especially her mother.

"Let me talk to Bhai today and he will surely give a job to you." Siddharth smiled assuring as he patted her hands and she also smiled back. He excused himself to order some coffee for them while she looked all around the restaurant waiting for him.

It was evening time, everyone was sitting at the dining table having lunch, Siddharth sitting beside Abhishek with Vaishnavi on one side and Abhishek in the center. Jannat and her mother Mrs. Aadhya Sharma while Mr. Ansari Sharma was on the frontest lead seat. Everyone was eating dinner when Mrs. Aadhya noticed Siddharth being a little lost munching the food slowly.

"Everything alright Siddharth? Haven't you liked the dishes ?" asked Mrs. Aadhya who was like a mother figure to him and his brother from childhood as she brought them up like a mother. 

"No, Mom I liked it. I am just not hungry." excused Siddharth making Abhishek go concerned. Mrs. Aadhya also got concerned and hence looked at Mr. Ansari Sharma who was already looking at Siddharth.

"Why son? Is anything bothering you ?" asked Mr. Ansari with a sweet smile as his wife signed him.

"No worries, I just had a brunch with one of my friends. No worries," informed Siddharth with a smile on his face assuring everything is fine and everyone nodded continuing their dinner. But the only question which was bothering Siddharth was "What if he failed to fulfill his promise? What will he answer Avneet and how would he face her if he failed ?" disturbing him several times. 

It was 10 of night and everyone was busy getting ready to go to bed where Jannat slept by now and Abhishek and Vaishnavi were still awake ready to sleep on their bed. Where Abhishek was using phone laying on the bed and Vaishnavi applying lotion on her arm sitting comfortably. There came a knock on the door which surprised them both as everyone falls asleep till now.

The door slides open with a gap from which a person could be seen. It was Siddharth. Vaishnavi sat straight seeing him stepping inside the room while Abhishek pulled his ear phones sitting on bed but not before glancing at Vaishnavi. 

"May I sit ?, I want to talk to you." asked Siddharth for a permission to which Abhishek nodded smiling. He sat down on the bed. Both the brothers were infront of each other. Siddharth first hesitated to tell about it but soon composed himself as he saw Vaishnavi and Abhishek assuring him, their eyes filled with love.

"Bhai, Can I get a favor from you ?" requested Siddharth in a bit pleading voice hesitated about the questions asked by him.

"Bhai, my..." Siddharth couldn't continue as he knew what he was going to say is a lie. Avneet isn't just his friend but love too. His tongue was betraying him speaking a lie. He again gathered courage as Abhishek held his hand.

"Say it bacha !" demanded Abhishek being irritated but composing himself firmly as well.

"My friend is not financially stable and she is only a person earning in her home. She is studying as well as want to do a job too. I-I promised her that I will provide her job. Bhai, please for me." demanded Siddharth in almost pleading voice. Abhishek looked at Siddharth being angry enough to make Siddharth realize it and his eyes bend down getting embarassed.
