[Naina'a POV] :

Naina : Raj....ummm...Jaldi hai mujhe nikaal na chaiye. Mera matlab hai ki mujhe jaldi nikaal na chaiye.

Pooja (shocked) : Shahrukh ne... Shahrukh ne kab ? Naina ? Nainaaa...

What was I thinking, letting something like that out. For goodness sake hardly anyone knew about that. 

Flashback (third person pov) :

31st October, 2006.

It was after yet another meeting about how to tackle Ritu and get her to confess. Everyone had left and now it was only Naina and Rajveer trying to finish up some more before going back.

Naina : Kya hua Rajveer ? 

Rajveer (smiling) : Happy Birthday Naina.

Naina : Thank you.

Rajveer : Mujhse gift nahi maangogi ?

Naina : Maangi hui cheez ko gift nahi zid bolte hai.

Rajveer : Okay, toh fir main tumhe gift dun ya nahi ?

Naina : Your wish.

Rajveer : Close your eyes.

Naina : Okay ?

Rajveer (mock sternness) : Naina..

Naina : Okay fine..

She did as he asked and waited. After some time she felt something cool and metallic being slid onto her wrist. She opened her eyes and saw a black in color wrist watch. It was similar to the watch the rest of the team had. She looked at him with surprise.

Naina : Yeh toh...

Rajveer : Baaki team members ki watch se milta julta hai. I know ki tumhe abhi bhi lagta hai ki hum tumhe team ka hissa nahi maante hai. 

Trust me Naina tumhare bina itni smoothly humari team complete nahi hoti. You are an important part of this team. Never doubt that.

Naina (softly) : Thank you.

They got lost in each others eyes, not noticing the time. It was after 10 minutes or so that they came back to planet earth. Blushing they went back.

End of flashback.

Gosh just thinking about is making me blush. Before I could spiral Part started going over the deal. By the time we reached there we knew the deal inside and out.





Finally after 2 hours of talking and schmoozing and subtly manipulation we got the deal. We were so happy that the moment their car was out of sight I had the biggest grins on my face and Parth just swept me up in a hug.  

Naina (still in the hug) : We did it. We really did it.

Parth : Yes, we did.

Naina (breaking the hug) : Chalo dinner is on me, I even made a reservation.

Parth (beginning to walk towards the reception) : Reservation, huh ? Tujhe pata hai na ki main single nahi hun, aur nahi mingle karna chata hun.
