Anika's room.
Gayatri is drawing the curtains gently so that she can't disturb Anika's beautiful sleep and sun rays enter in her room,the sun rays come across her eyes and Anika is awake, she's till having a hangover of yesterday and sits on her bed touching her forehead is like she's experiencing a brain freeze after eating ice cream and she doesn't remember what transpired yesterday and why she's in dress instead of her pajamas everything is blurry to her and Gayatri finishes and finds her lost and confused and comes to her and sits beside her.
"Good morning my Annie,"greeted Gayatri.
"Good morning.....auntie.....I don't know why....but I feel I have a hangover......and what's worse.....I can't remember a single thing," Anika replied.
"Dear......it's a long story.....but to cut the story short.......if it weren't for Neil.....something bad could have happened to you......we owe him......let's put that aside......I have prepared a warm bath for you....go and take a bath and after freshening up.....I'll send you breakfast," Gayatri replied.
"Okay.....thanks auntie.....but why should I take breakfast here.....not with the rest of the family?" Anika asked.
"Well.....your sisters have already taken breakfast....your mom too and she has already left...... anyways freshen up.....then I'll send one of the maids to bring food to you..... okay dear.....I'll take my leave," explained Gayatri leaving and closing the door.

She stood up and remembered that she kept important stuff in her phone and then picked the phone on top of the drawer.
"Darn it..... battery's dead.....let me charge it....then after freshening up....I'll find out what exactly happened," said Anika.
She went and charged her phone and then went to the bathroom.

Bathroom.
After having a warm bubble bath she went and freshened up and then wore her jeans,blue blouse and sneakers.

When she was about to pick her phone there was a knock at the door.

"Come in," said Anika.

It was one of their maids with a tray of breakfast.

"Ma'am....ma'am Gayatri told me to bring this for you....where should I put it?" Maid asked.

"On the desk table.....thank you....you may leave ," Anika replied.

She left and closed the door behind her.

She took her phone from charger and received a text from Nikhil apologizing for standing her off and that she'll make it up for her.

Then switched off her phone and placed it in charger.

While eating she started recalling everything up to when Shivaay came to her rescue.

After finishing her food she went to her cabin office to work to avoid thinking of Shivaay.

Apartment.
Shivaay is in the kitchen preparing breakfast for him and his brothers.

Omru come.

"Good morning brother," greeted Rudy.
"Good morning Rudy," Shivaay replied.
"Brother.....am still upset with you," replied Rudy.
"Why....what did I do?" Shivaay asked confused.
"Good morning Shivaay.....his upset because....you promised that you'll not miss the Oberoi moments....but you did," Om explained.
"Ooh that.....am sorry Rudy.....we can do it even today after work.....what do you say?" Shivaay replied.
"The time has passed...... BTW.....why we're you late?" Rudy asked.

Shivaay recalled his encounter with Anika.

"It's because of that g(he was about to say girl but Omru will end up asking a lot of questions).....the thing is the bar was packed.....so that's why.....anyways food is done.....if you excuse me.....am leaving," Shivaay explained.

"Where to ?!" Rudy asked.

"To the bathroom.....you can start eating without me," Shivaay said leaving.

Omru
"Did you notice anything with Shivaay?" Om asked.
"Other than acting weird..... nothing," Rudy replied.
"No Rudy boy....he hesitated," Om explained.
"So ?!" Rudy replied.
"He's definitely hiding something from us," Om replied.
"I know....maybe he hooked up with a girl last night....is afraid to tell us," Rudy replied.
"Rudy....have you no shame.... Shivaay isn't that type of person.....let alone mingle with girls.....do you remember Pia in 7 th grade....who had a huge crush to him.....she even made it obvious....but Shivaay didn't get it," Om explained.
Both started laughing,remembering how aloof there brother was a while back.
"You're right.....how could I forget.....our brother's character," Rudy replied.

Footsteps started approaching them they knew it was Shivaay and decided to keep quiet.

Shivaay came.
He found them quiet than usual because this was Omru had also something to say.
"Why so quiet?" Shivaay asked.
"Nothing.... Shivaay..... we're getting late for work," replied Om.
"Your right Om....let me eat quickly," replied Shivaay.

After finishing eating boarded a rickshaw and went to work.
