Ruhana brings Sachin, Angel and Vineet to her home. She knows that they have many questions in their mind, especially Vineet. But she doesn’t have time to tell them anything. She opens the rooms on the first floor and moves into her room. She moves into her room and at the same time, the maidservant  enters the room. Ruhana looks at her and then hugs her tightly.

“Thank god, you’re here

“Thank god, you’re here. Otherwise, I don’t know mera kya hota?” Ruhana says.

“You’d do it well, Ruu. Anyway, we have to wrap the things up. Mumbai mein melodrama shuru ho chuka hai.”the lady says.

“Ah! These guys are no less than dramatic.” Ruhana makes a face.

“Ruhana, we need to do something. Abhi toh they’re here. You need to send the details asap.” the lady says.

“Han, I will do that

“Han, I will do that. But thanks,l. You’ve been a great help.” Ruhana looks at her friend.

The lady smiles and asks her to relax, she moves into the kitchen. Ruhana pulls out her laptop from the drawer of her side-table and prepares a detailed email and sends it across to the recipient. She takes a deep sigh and then moves down into the kitchen. Her guests must be hungry.

Angel falls fast asleep as soon as she crashes on the bed. After a tiring journey, the sudden gunshots and their saviour owning a gun — all of it have left her overwhelmed. It’s better that she rests a little.

On the other hand, Sachin freshens up and changes into a comfortable dress. He’s glad he’s found someplace to spend the night. The incidents that happened since he met Ruhana at the Michigan station have left him alarmed. He’s equally surprised but he chooses to believe Ruhana. After all, she’s the one who saved them from the attacks at the London station.

Vineet is ecstatic. He can’t make himself believe Ruhana. She owns a gun, she owns a beautiful bungalow in London and she’s the national-level shooter. How? Is it normal or is there something more to this story? Also, she has a few people to look after the house. Is she into the wrong things? Or is she saying the truth? Many questions are bubbling into his mind. He wants the answers but he doesn’t know how should he pose the questions to the lady who has saved his life. Well, she did it, actually. She’s already said that there’s no other option than to believe her. But —-- well, many questions. Vineet is determined to find the answers soon.
