Shehnaaz  was somewhere lost in those deep-set grey eyes. Both Shehnaaz and Sidharth stared at each other, and the eye contact became intense between them! However, Sidharth suddenly realised something and drifted his eyes away from Shehnaaz. He started looking straight ahead and saw that the signal lights had turned green. Seeing the signal changing, Sidharth moved the car.

"Do you know what your problem is? You are too scared to talk about yourself. Don't you? " Shehnaaz stated, after a brief silence.

Sidharth was surprised and stole a glance at Shehnaaz. Since he was driving, he shifted his gaze back to the front. "What do you mean, Shehnaaz?" he asked.

"I meant to say that you haven't told me anything about yourself yet. whereas you know every detail about me. Mr. Shukla , you don't like being questioned because if I ask you anything, you might have to answer my queries and you are afraid that I would get to know about you that way, "Shehnaaz announced.

"Well... Yeah, that is a lie. I don't know everything about you, Shehnaaz. For example, I don't know your favourite color, "he chuckled.

"Huh... Do you find this funny?" Shehnaaz replied sarcastically.

"Naah... I mean it. There are a lot of things that I don't know about you. And trust me, I would really like to know more about you, " Sidharth replied.

While he said this, shehnaaz stole a glance at him. After a few seconds of pause, shehnaaz spoke, "Black... My favourite colour is black."

"Umm... Black... Your choice is quite different, actually. "He asked. "Girls are usually into pink or red," he said.

"You seem to be well aware of the likes and dislikes of a girl. It seems like you have got some good experience. Yeah,  must have dated a lot of them. By the way, have you got any girlfriends?" Shehnaaz inquired.

"Oh but if you did, then why would you go for surrogacy?" she added, answering her own question.

His face turned pale and the smile vanished. His facial expressions had changed. Sidharth was now serious and a tint of anger could be seen in his eyes. He appeared scary to Shehnaaz. She wondered if she had crossed her limits. She thought Sidharth would pour his anger on her, but what happened was totally the opposite. Sidharth  didn't say a word. Rather, he continued to drive silently. Both of them didn't exchange a single word with each other on the way.

After some time, they reached home, and Sidharth parked the car. Shehnaaz stepped out of the car and then walked inside the apartment. Sidharth  followed her inside. They had not spoken to each other yet.

Shehnaaz was feeling guilty that she had hurt Sidharth with her words. Though it was unknowingly, he was upset because of Shehnaaz. She wanted to apologise to him. Sidharth  put the shopping bags on the couch in the living room and went straight to the room on the right side.
