Adith jaldi jaldi ghar....hadd bhookh lagi h!", Sidahrth said moving to his car.

He opened the door,when he saw Rumi walk towards them.

"Hey.....Sidahrth ", said rumi.

"Actually i wanted to thank you ...agr aaj...you wouldn't have explained to me.
..i wouldn't have done the scene."

"Ya ..no problem!Anytime!",he answerd.
He somehow felt an uncomfortable air around it all and wanted to end the conversation quickly

"Okay then see you!", he said smiling and turning away ,when Rumi called him,"Sidharth!",

He turned back ,and in an instant she hugged him ,again thanking him.

It was a simple thing ,but Sidharth felt awkward. He had seen Shehnaaz hug her collegues, and even he did so with his friends,but the way Rumi did it was different. It scared him,he was just starting a life with Shehnaaz.He did not want his past repeating itself.


"Sidahrth bacche fresh hoja jaldi jaldi....Shehnaaz's aunt has asked us to come over, we are having dinner at their place.", his mother said .

"Shehnaaz aai hai kya?" He asked.

"Pata nahi bacche ...u change and then check bhi kar k aaja....just ask her aunt if she needs any help...ya fir market se kuch chaiye ho?",his mother told him.

She was preparing some sweet dishes ,that she would take to the dinner

Saanu....tu aai ha kya...i need to see you

Darling free hogi call karna

Shehnaaz aai kya abhi

Saanu phone pick up kar na

RIA

Shehnaaz came back to her room ,taking out the phone from her drawer.

"Shehnaaz ek kaam kar ....u get this paper submitted, fir presentation pe kaam karege!", Abeesh said.

"Sana darling tera hogya ...chal aaja fir",Bose said comming to her cabin door.

"Hey Dr Abeesh ....i thought you had left?",Bose said looking at the duo.

" Yeah I was waiting for Shehnaaz...paper k baare me baat karni thi...its just a few days to conference!"

Meanwhile Shehnaaz opened up her phone to see a series of texts from Ria ,3 missed calls from Ria, 3 from Sidharth and 1 from her aunt.

"Woah ...whats wrong", she whispered.

"Sana what do you say....should be do the review check for paper right now?"Abeesh questioned.

She looked at Bose ,he gave her a questioning look.

"Bose tu ja...i will stay back...paper ka kaam kar k aati hu."

She looked confused and absent-minded

"Are u sure?",he asked back.

"Ya ,tu ja ....."

She picked up her phone calling her aunt .

"Ha masi ki hoya...all fine?"

"Ya ..all fine just called to check on you
...tu kab tak aaegi?"

"Masi i am a bit busy mai call kardi aa."

Sidahrth knocked at Shehnaaz's apartment ,he was apprehensive. This was the first time he would be alone with her someone from her family.His heart feared what would her aunt talk about.
