RUNAWAY

|•| 2 |•|

Annika is standing on a highway and asking for lift. Many cars passes her but none stops for her. She gets tired and sits on a milestone nearby. Suddenly she spots a vehicle from far and stops in the middle of the road.

Annika's POV

Now this car has to stop at any cost. I can't afford to sit here for long time. Everyone will start searching for me. I have to runaway from here ASAP.

As the car nears her annika stands firmly in her place. That car stops & she gets delighted. She runs and sits in car after throwing her luggage in backseat. She turns to driver to thank him & explain her problem. But she gets biggest shock of her life. There sits 'SHIVAAY SINGH OBEROI' in the place of driver looking at her with horrified expression. Annika face palms and curses herself in mind.

Shivaay :- Excuse me..!! Will you care to explain..?? What's all this..?? Aunty ji Is this is the way to enters someone's car without permission.

Annika :- (In mind) Uff.. I'm also an idiot. I forgot that I changed my attire like an old lady so no one could recognize me. I was worrying unnecessarily. See this SSO also didn't recognize me. But what to do now. I'll have to make some fake story. And by the way what he is doing here. He was gonna reach directly in mandap na.

Shivaay :- Hello... Aunty ji... Are you here...

Annika :- (changes her voice like an elderly woman) Yes beta. So sorry but actually I have to reach somewhere very urgently but was not getting any transportation hence I barged in your car like that. Sorry.

Shivaay :- (smiling) No problem aunty. It's okay. Just tell me where you want to go I'll drop you.

Annika :- (gets confused about his presence in India but acts again.) Actually will you drop me to the airport.

Shivaay :- Yeah. Why not..?? Actually I'm going to Pune. I'll surely drop you on the airport. it's on the way only.

Annika :- (little nervous & baffled) Okay. Okay..!!

Annika's POV

What's happening here. First of all I should slap myself. I found only this car to take lift. And upon that what is he doing here in India..?? He should be in his flight. Tej uncle said he will come on venue directly. And why the hell is he going to pune. Don't he have to be in his mansion right now. And he is behaving so cool. I mean not like the regular SSO. He fine or not..?? God need to find it yaar.

Shivaay starts the car and drives in the direction of airport. Whereas annika sits on her place silently and tries to connect the dots and solve the puzzle.
