Goenka Villa, night

Manish Goenka walks inside his study when a staff runs behind him with a bundle of newspapers. Manish pulls the chair and seats himself. He then lights his cigarette and takes a puff as he glares at the staff

Manish: Whats the important news of the evening papers?

Staff: Sir all papers have the same news, Naira Singhania becomes the CEO of Singhania diamonds af...

Manish: What?

He gets up on his feet, throws the cigarette down and stamps it with his boots

Manish: What the hell was that?

Staff: The headline sir

Manish grabs the papers and is shocked to see the news he is more shocked to find the pic of Naira, Kartik , Sameer , Naina and Mr Agarwal

Manish: Daammmmmm

Meanwhile Swarna and Dadi are in the living room

Swarna: Maaji he is shouting like hell

Dadi: I guess he has seen the papers, Naira became the CEO na

Swarna: What now Maaji

Dadi: Act like we know nothing. It's because of him that the beta and bahu of this ghar aren't with us today

Swarna: Haan maaji..we could not tell the truth o Naira and I could not meet her being in the same city. I had to maintain the lie

Dadi: You don't go to your room until he settles down

Dadi takes Swarna to the kitchen

In Manish's study room he is feverishly rushing through the papers with anger boiling. He takes his mobile and calls Kartik, but is unable to to reach him.

Manish: Kartik...where are you lost? God dammit

Manish shouts and throws things off the table making a ruckus

Resort
In contrast to the previous atmosphere here the atmosphere is so silent and serene. Naira walks out of one of the rooms of the resort after getting fresh. The dinner seemed to be out of fairy tales. She admires the princess ring dazzling in her finger

and her thoughts rush to their kiss. She blushes at the mere thought. With the blush making her weak by the legs she walks towards the car and is surprised to find Kartik lying down on the car bonnet with his hands folded under his head. As she nears him she finds that he has averted his gaze from the stars to her. His eyes fixed being on her makes her conscious and she feels much weaker by her legs. He was always handsome but now his coat off and the white shirt matching her top with sleeves folded till his elbow he looked like a greek god to her . As she got closer and closer she could feel her breath hitch.
