Ishika's P.O.V

Yes! We have one hour before we need to go downstairs and enjoy the room. I turned on the flat screen TV and jumped onto the bed. Bounciest bed ever! Rahul turned on the music system which blasted songs from Bollywood movies.

Half an hour later, Rahul's phone started ringing.

"Hello?" he screamed, over the loud music. I quickly lowered the volume.

"What, already?" Rahul asked. There was a long pause while the person on the other side was talking.

"Okay, okay. Spare me the lecture, I'm coming." Rahul cut the call and turned to me.

"We're 10 minutes late. Viren just yelled at me." he sighed. Rahul left the room. The plan was in action. I went to my suitcase and dressed up in a purple full sleeved dress which came up to my knees. I put on silver dangly earrings, fixed up my makeup and went downstairs to the bar. I checked my phone to see the picture that Rahul sent me so that I could see what Ashish looked like. Wow! Someone that good looking didn't even seem like he could threaten anyone. I looked around the place. Around this time, there were just couples sitting at the tables and groups of people dancing to the music. My eye caught a young man with wavy hair wearing a black shirt and a ash coloured coat. I went and sat next to him.

"Hey there." the guy smiled at me.

"Hey. I'm Dina." I said. No, I didn't lose my memory. This was part of the plan.

"I'm Ashish." he said and shook my hand.

"You waiting for anyone?" he asked.

"Anyone that can sweep me off my feet." I said and winked at him.

"Dina. You have a beautiful name." Ashish came closer to me.

"Tell my parents. They named me." I lied.

Ashish laughed.

"Want to go somewhere private?" he asked. I took his hand and took him to the lobby.

"First, tell me. Are you taken?" I asked him coldly.

"Direct. I like it."

"Tell me."

"Will you go find her and tell her?" He asked.

"No."

"There's a girl. But she's my ex. I told her to come back to me or else I'll kidnap her. I'll probably keep her at home while I go out!" He admitted it! That was easy.

"What's her name?" I asked.

"Preeti Sharma."

"You're not easy to trust, are you?"

"But you can trust me." He winked again. Desperate much?

"But you can't trust me." I told him. I saw the look of confusion on his face for a second before Viren kicked him to the floor.

"Hey!" Ashish yelled.

"Don't 'hey' me! You mess with my sister and you mess with me!" Viren screamed. Rahul entered with a load of police officers. Ashish still looked confused. I took off the small microphone that was hidden behind my neck under my hair and showed him. Rahul punched his face and grabbed his collar.

"You will never see Preeti again and if you ever come near her, I won't spare you." Rahul spat in Ashish's face. The police handcuffed him and took him away. Our plan worked! We three had grins plastered to our face. Without thinking, I hug Rahul and he hugs me too. I don't know how long we were together but I felt warm and comfy in his arms. Viren cleared his throat. I pulled back.
