Evening- On the shore,

Nico : Hey Disha... How are you? You are alone again.

Disha : (Smiles) Yeah, am good. Thank you.

Nico : So let me guess, you are here to watch the waves (Teasing)

Disha : (Smiles) No, this time I am here to buy the sea.

Nico : Wow... That's awesome, I tried many times.. May luck be with you.

(Both laughs)

Why are you alone.. Is nobody with you. (Looking around)

Disha : (Stays quiet).. I

Nico : Oh, am sorry.. You don't have to tell me anything (smiles) Have you ever tried sea food here.

Disha : Yeah.

Nico : Cooked directly from the sea.. Then and there.

Disha : Hmm.. No.

Nico : Come on, you should try.

Disha : No, I'm fine.

Nico : Oh! come on, this is on the house.

Disha : But (looking at her body guards who are blended with the people) am not hungry..

Nico : Oh!! madam. Please, trust me am not going to kidnap you.

Disha : Okay (smiles and walks with him)

Inside the small seashore restaurant,

(Placing the dishes before Disha)

Nico : Come on, taste it.. Tell me how is it.

Disha : (Taking a bite) Hmm!! the flavors are great. (Smiles genuinely).. I haven't had something like this before.

Nico : (Laughs) Told you.... Now try this (serving her some shrimps) This is one of the favorite dishes here.

Nico's Friend: Nico!! one minute come here.

Nico : You eat, I will be back in a minute.. (Leaves Disha and goes to the kitchen) What bro!!

Nico's Friend: Who is that girl?

Nico : (Smiles) Disha.

Nico's Friend : Nico, am serious.. You don't even know that girl.. Why are you buying her food..

Nico : Bro, She looked sad... I think she has no one.

Nico's Friend : So?.. What are you planning.

Nico : (Laughs) I'm planning nothing, I just want to see her smile.

Nico's Friend : You just met her day before
And started to care for her?

Nico : To make someone smile, you don't have to know them for years.. It's just I saw her on the beach, when everyone was having fun she was sitting on the sand alone.. Thinking about something... Every human being on the earth has problems but that must not let them stop smiling... Not just her, if I had seen anyone in her place, I would have done the same.. (Smiles) She is waiting for us.. Let's leave this for now...(Both walking to Disha).

Disha's Table,

Nico : Oh!! sorry... Sorry for keep you waiting.. This is one of my favorites. (Places a plate of oysters)

Disha : No, am full.. I can't eat anymore.

Nico : Just try one.. (Smiles)

(Disha takes one and slurps)

Disha : Hmm!! smooth.. Thank you. It's getting late, I need to leave.. Thank you so much. (Waves and leaves)

Nico : I made a person smile today (Smiles)

Nico's Friend : Okay, Buddha, now pay my bill.. (Nico laughs)

Inside the car,

Taiga : Are you sure Markus, do you think she will like this.

Markus : She will... (Gives him a pendrive with old cartoons)... First you have to make her comfortable.. Once, she told me she liked watching cartoons and series, we talked about that for a whole day.... So if you try watching this with her, she will definitely open up. Trust me.

Taiga : If this plan succeeds, I will give you a month break with salary.

Markus : Great!! Thank you sir..

Inside the hotel,

Taiga : Hey Ryan, what is she doing.

Ryan : She is sleeping sir.

Taiga : What (checks the time) It's just 7:30, why did she fall asleep soon.. Wake her up, she have to eat her dinner.

Ryan : (Breathes) She already had her dinner sir.

Taiga : How (frowns) she had no money with her.

Ryan : Sir.. That's... There is this guy in the local, he is working as a guard.. (Lowers his voice) He took her to the nearby hotel sir..

(Taiga grits his teeth)

Taiga : I'm not going to the office tomorrow.. Show him to me.

Ryan : Yes sir..

(Taiga walks to his room and closes the door behind)

Taiga's POV,

(Looking at Disha who is in deep sleep, sitting next to her on bed) I heard you like cartoons, (smirks) I lived with you for five years, why I didn't know about this.. But our driver knows about what you like and what you hate the most.. Are we this far from each other Disha? (looking at the pendrive in his hand and throws down in anger)
