"No." Both said in unison.

"This is ridiculous, how can you even think like that. I am canceling this party asap " Shivaay snapped back. He is confused now. He wanted to spend a little time with Annika,but not like this! However, he is still figuring out his connection with her.

Annika is apprehensive too. She wanted to go for party but as his date? She don't think so.

"Come on Annika didi. It will be fun!" Rudra said still trying to convince an adamant Annika. Going for a big party is a different thing, as a date of that Akdu,is completely different. He will be hosting event. If for once, for his dazzling eyes she agrees, But she can't deny the complete attention she will get after that. It's too much for her to handle.

Gauri and Om were pestering her too. "This Gauri Na..... she will pay for this!!!!. Whole week she was missing, now she has shown up with Om and trying very hard to irritate me . She will get her prize later. For now, these two obros has to be managed." She thought.

Shivaay was all fed up with these continuous pestering. He agreed for the sake of his image and all. Rudy has his ways to convince him, but he is not sure if Annika will agree. He can't put her in any kind of discomfort.

"Annika it's alright. You are not going to be his girlfriend. It's just a date. You have to only go with him. Later, we will join you." Gauri and Annika were talking, sleeping all spread over the bed. It was cousins night out.

"Still Gauri, how can I?. He is Shivaay Singh Oberoi afterall. How much attention he will get don't you know? All those high society people, that sophistication, I can't.  And on top of that Shivaay...... he is the most difficult part....This is crazy I can't." Annika poured her heart.

Inside, she is very excited, something she wishes to attend, her only concern is the unwanted attention. Media, his family, friends and especially Mallika. She don't know why, but she knew her encounter with her would be an epic one. Either they will gel or become unscripted enemy.

For now her disappointment is Shivaay's reaction. His ignorance in this topic is a heartache. He didn't even responded to her after that. Annika was lost in her thoughts when she heard Gauri shouting on her ears.

"Are you here? This girl will someday make me go crazy! Why are you like this? I don't know why I get people like you in my life?. That omkara he is exact carbon copy of you, in the middle of our discussion he would come up with shayris. imagine!!!. these creative people are getting into my head now." Gauri was cribbing like a mad girl.
Dating a painter and poet is not easy it seems.
"Oh shut up!!.Om is so mature, not like his brother. I don't understand his attitude yaar...... Why is he like this? And why only he is like that? " Annika blabbered without thinking about Gauri's reaction.

"Huh" Gauri replied, she is getting anxious. She wanted to know her Stupid, innocent cousin thinks of Shivaay. She really hoped they came together. She is actually worried for her workaholic sister. Sometimes she even forgets to eat. She needs a life. May be a relationship can help. If not, knowing and hanging with few good people will do. Shivaay is very suitable for her. Even if this alliance did not work at least she will have something in her Kitty.
