Harshawardhan Hooda waiting for his son in the living room to discuss about one of the client's take over.

Harshawardhan saw Aditya entering the living room with blood all over his shirt. "Adi..." he called. Aditya stopped and thought to himself looking over his state, "Shit!!! I didn't thought he'll be at home!!! He is going to make my life ruckus now". He saw his dad coming towards him, "Dad", he said.

"What happened to you, Adi? What the hell happened to you? Where the hell is that idiot? Ramu... Ramu..." he shouted. "Dad... Wait a minute..." But he didn't listen to Aditya and move passed him to the door. "Dad... Listen to me... Please", he stopped him by holding his hand.

"Nothing happened to me, Dad. I'm alright, I asked Ramu kaka to take leave today and on my way, a person met with an accident. I helped him to take to the hospital. This is his blood and not mine. I'm perfectly alright", he reassured again as Harshawardhan was glaring at him.

"What's wrong with you, Aditya? Are you in your sense? How come you deal with those cheap people? If someone met with accident what's your problem? You should have come home straight. You're perfect in everything Aditya but this is the only thing I don't like about you", he said.

"Dad, no one can be perfect. I'm doing what is there in my hands. I wanted to help people as much as I can. Please don't judge me on this or try to stop me", Aditya said firmly.

"You would never listen to me, Aditya, NEVER. You think of me as fool here. Don't think all the people around here are as good as you. They'll wipe out everything from you and bring you to the streets if you give them the chance. Then you'll be the fool", Harsh shouted. "Dad, please I don't want to argue about this now. I wanted to get fresh. Please, Dad let's not talk about this", he said harshly.

"Adi... Listen to me", he said but Aditya brushes him off and headed towards his room. He banged the door once he got inside and headed to bathroom. He trashed his blood stained dress and went into the shower.

He turned on the hot shower to relax himself. He didn't know how long he stood under the shower. He came to senses when he remembered his interaction with Zoya. "Mr. Aditya, this is P&L element but covered in Balance Sheet and that one has to come under current asset but showed in P&L. Apart from that, this particular entry is wrong. That supposed to be debit and not credit" then the flashes moved to "Sorry Mr. Aditya, I can't leave Mr. Hector. He is like a mentor to me and I have committed with so much work there. I can't leave that office so easily. But thank you for your offer and I take my leave".

"If someone else was in your place would have called an ambulance and they would have left that man in the road. I even doubt that, they would have called an ambulance. They would sight seen the accident and left that man to die there"

He opened his eyes like he was hit by 1000 watts current. "What? Why am I thinking about Zoya? I never happened to think about anything while I was in shower", he thought. He looked around confused and took his towel and tied it on his waist.

He cleaned the mirror which is covered with steam. Again, he saw Zoya's face in the mirror asking him, "Aditya, can we come with you?" he baffled and turned around to see no one. He again turned back to the mirror to check and saw no one.
