Shehnaaz and sidharth were in his car. On their way, Shehnaaz inquired, "Sidharth , if you don't mind... May I ask you a question?"

Sidharth glanced at her in surprise. That one glance at Sidharth made Shehnaaz think that she would get to hear the same old answer to her question; "I Hate Questions."

But to her surprise, Sidharth replied to her, "Yeah... Tell me. What do you want to know?"

Before Shehnaaz could ask him anything, his phone rang. Sidharth excused himself and picked up the call. The person on the other side of the call had mentioned something that enraged Sidharth to the extreme. He vented out his anger over the phone, "We had a word about this earlier. And I have nothing left to say any further. You have all the liberty to comprehend whatever you want. I don't give a damn. " He paused for a moment and continued his speech further.

"Give me some time to think over it and I'll get back to you. However, nobody should be interested in what I am going to do next in my life. And I don't want to continue this conversation anymore. Bye."

Sidharth disconnected the call. He was furious enough that he punched his hand on the steering wheel.

It was scary for Shehnaaz when she saw Sidharth showing his temper. She tho- ught he would get agitated at her if she asked him the question that she was about to ask. After all, the question was about Sidharth's personal life.

Shehnaaz shifted her gaze out of the window and kept quiet.

After a while, Sidharth broke the silence, "I am sorry." Umm... You were saying something."

"Umm... nothing actually, I just wanted to ask where we are going." Shehnaaz replied.

Sidharth looked at shehnaaz for a moment, then focused his gaze at the front and continued to drive.

His lips curled into a smile, and then he spoke, "Actually, I think we should celebrate this news. Let's go out for dinner. Tell me, Shehnaaz , what would you like to have? We would select the place accordingly.

It's really not necessary for us to go out for dinner. I don't feel like going anywhere, "Shehnaaz stated.

Sidharth stole a glance at shehnaaz once again.

"Listen, I wasn't asking you, Shehnaaz . I am telling you that we are going, "he replied sternly.

'He cannot forget his habit of instructing people and giving orders to them. And if he had decided to take me out for dinner, he could have been a little more polite with his voice. But no... all he did was order me, 'thought shehnaaz grumpily.

Shehnaaz and sidharth were quiet for the rest of their journey. After a while, sidharth stopped the car in the parking area of a very lavish restaurant. He stopped the car and told shehnaaz to get out of the car.

Looking at the place, shehnaaz found herself again in a situation where she was at a place where she was underdressed. All of a sudden, she was conscious and nervous about the way she was looking. She had not imagined that sidharth would take her out for dinner. She was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, which was a very casual outfit and not appropriate for dinner at such a high-end restaurant. It was quite unexpected for her to be asked by sidharth to have dinner with him.

In the morning, shehnaaz had left the hostel in casual attire to go for her check-up. She had no idea that, at the end of the day, she would have to go to a luxurious restaurant. But now she was stuck with sidharth at such a place, feeling embarrassed. Thousands of thoughts were running through her mind. She wondered what sidharth might be thinking about her. He would think that she didn't have proper dressing sense.
