Megha turned towards the owner of the voice. Her lips parted and eyes widened a bit when her eyes met with his. She wanted to ask many things but only a single word came out of her mouth.

Megha: you!

The person smiled a little and nodded. He scanned her whole face while a sigh of relief escaped from his mouth.

Aarav: finally I found you.

She was so lost in his charms that she didn't even hear what he said. He chuckled seeing her lost and waved his hand in front of her while asking.

Aarav: hey! Everything fine?

Megha came out of her thoughts when he called her out. She nodded abruptly in response. He smiled at her while a red hue crept up on her face.

Aarav: hello! I am aarav.

Megha looked into his eyes while her face was red. She was feeling a different level of happiness after seeing him. She felt like, she found something which was lost. She responded in a nervous tone.

Megha: hi! I-I am m-megha.

Aarav nodded while something caught his sight. He asked with concern.

Aarav: hey! Are you fine? Why is your face so red?

Megha got nervous and replied in a hurry while hiding her blush.

Megha: no I am fine. It's just too hot today.

Aarav sighed and nodded and asked her.

Aarav: umm that day I was not able to thankyou properly.

Megha: no problem. I hope you are good now.

Aarav: yeah now I am absolutely fine.

Megha: that's good to hear.

Aarav smiled at her and asked in a hesitat tone.

Aarav: can I ask you something.

Megha: yeah.

Aarav: my father told that you denied to take the money.

Megha: it's fine I don't need it back.

Aarav: but-

Megha: it's fine as long as you are fine.

Megha replied in a abruptly tone not realising what she just said. She bited her tongue as she realised what she had just split. He was a bit taken back from her response.

There was a awkward silence between them but aarav eased it by breaking it.

Aarav: umm as you are not talking the money. How about having tonight's dinner with me.

Megha looked up at him. Her face carried a tint of hesitation.

Aarav: if you are comfortable.

Megha thought for a bit and nodded while smiling at him.

Megha: okay

Aarav: let's go.

They both drived to a nearby restaurant. After a quick journey, he pulled off his break infront a beanery. He got out of the car, came to her side and opened the door. She smiled a little and came out. They both entered inside. It was one of the most luxurious eatery in Mumbai.

They both sat on a table near a massive size window from where a beautiful rose garden was visible. They were sitting facing eachother, he glanced at her and poured a glass of water to her.
