Sidharth received the image Reyansh send him telling that they had left, while shehnaaz was still frantically looking for Aarav.

She shrieked when she noticed Aarav's hat in the lake. Without any second thought she ran towards the lake.

Sidharth tried to stop her, trying to tell her that Aarav is safe. But before that shehnaaz jumped in the lake. She was about to go deeper when sidharth held her hand and stopped her.

"Dr. Shehnaaz".

"Leave me and save Aarav".

"Aarav has been found. He is safe amd sound." Sidharth tried to calm her down with his softest tone, even he didn't know he had.

"But that hat."

"It's not Aarav's. Don't worry".

"Why didn't you tell me earlier ? I m wet now." Shehnaaz said whining and sulking like a child.

"You always do things rashly." Sidharth chided.

Both of them made their way to where his car was parked. But there was no car. Only big boxes with mattress, pillow and comforters.

"It's must be fucking Reyansh. What I didn't expect to Aarav stole my spare car keys." Sidharth huffed.

"My phone is soaked what about yours".
Sidharth asked to shehnaaz.

"My phone is out of battery."

"May be, we are going to spend a night here." Sidharth said handing shehnaaz a pillow.

"What?"

Sidharth planted the tent that was in the boxes. He lit up the whole place with candles for light and to keep them warm.

"Come on, put your hands on it to keep yourself warm ." Sidharth said sitting on the mat placing a tray with scented candles.

"It's really warm." Shehnaaz said placing her hand on the flame. The night was chilly.

"You already have a cold. Go in the tent and change clothes." Shehnaaz felt embarrassed.

"Then don't peek." She said to sidharth in a low voice. Sidharth raised his eyebrows amused.

"Don't think too much."

Shehnaaz removed her shoes and went in the tent to change.

Both of had changed. Their night suits were matching. Shehnaaz wore pink striped night suit and he wore blue striped. Sidharth scoffed at the idioticy of his friend. They have prepared instant cup noodles for dinner. Shehnaaz opened the lid and was about to dig in when she noticed sidharth made no move to eat.

"Don't you eat it?" Shehnaaz asked.

"Fried noodles and large amount of artificial seasoning. I don't need that. Sidharth said.

Shehnaaz rolled her eyes and started eating. Sidharth's eyes followed her every movement. His stomach growled. He was hungry but his health conscious bone  didn't let him eat the instant noodles.

"It's really delicious." Shehnaaz said mouthful of food. "Would you like to have a bite."

"No." He denied.

"Smell it. It's really delicious. " Shehnaaz almost moaned.

"No."

"OK then I'll eat it." She huffed 

Sidharth groaned inwardly. Not resisting himself more he gave in.
"Is it really that delicious.?" He said picking the fork.

"I'll have to taste in person." With that he dig his fork in noodles and took a spoonful of it in his mouth. He liked the taste.
