Sujal walks to the garden area of the hotel waking up from his sleep. He stops abruptly in surprise upon discovering Naina walking to and fro at slow pace in the garden. He checks the time in his watch and knits his brows tighter. Walking to her he asks her,
"Kya baat hai Mrs. Shekhawat aap soyin nahi?"
Naina gets startled by his voice and immediately turns to look towards Sujal.
"Sujal ji!",
she sighs, smiling.
"Sorry mera maksad aapko darane ka bilkul bhi nahi tha.",
says Sujal, feeling guilty.
"Ahmm... nahi nahi. Aisi... aisi koi baat nahi hai.",
smiles Naina and adjusts the shawl that she has wrapped around.
Sujal and Naina walk together.
"Actually bus neend nahi aa rahi thi to socha kuch der bahar tehl loon.",
smiles Naina.
Sujal smiles back, his eyes cascaded.
"Haa...n... mere saath bhi yahi hai. Karwatein badalta raha magar kambakht neend hai ke aane ka naam hi nahi le rahi.",
says Sujal.
Naina smiles.
Sujal smiles back.
She looks behind towards the building and says suspeciously,
"Pata nahi ye nayi jagah wajah hai ya yahan koi aur baat hai."
"Koi aur baat hai!",
says Sujal.
Naina's heart skips a beat and she immediately looks towards him to find him staring at her all serious.
"Ko...i... aur... baa...t??",
asks Naina, her heart begins to throb inside her chest.
"Jab log '...ya koi aur baat hai' kehte hain na to samjh lijiye, ke koi aur baat hi hai jo wo nahi bata rahein.",
smiles Sujal.
Naina blushes, smiles and shakes her head as if caught red handed.
"To bataiye kya baat hai?",
asks Sujal, politely.
Naina widens her eyes, residue of her smile still on her face.
"Ahmm...!",
Naina hesitates and smiles again.
"Bataiye!",
insists Sujal.
"Pehle aap ye bataiye ke kya aapko...",
she pauses, reconsidering her decision to have this discussion with him.
Sujal knits his brows, why did she stop abruptly?
"Mujhe kya?",
he asks.
"Kya aapko bhoot.... pret... aatmaon par bharosa hai?",
