Veer's POV

I called up Samara and asked her to reach a hotel close by in the evening at around seven.

She reached late but then she looked worried which began worrying me.

"Samara what's wrong?"

She looked away.

"Samara.. You can tell me what's wrong. I can help." I said placing my hands on hers.

"Something... Nahi Everything is wrong Veer" she said almost on the verge of crying.

"Please please don't cry.." I said hugging her as she sobbed on my chest.

"Look look at me. I'm here for you" I said as she snuggled into me and I kissed her on her forehead.

I first offered her a glass of water.

She accepted but she didn't stop crying.

"I'm sorry I guess I spoiled everything you planned for me" she said wiping her tears off.

"Yeah it's okay I guess" I said wiping my brow and then placing my hand on the ring in my pocket.

"So sorry Veer. It's just I was so pissed off that I broke down." She said stabilising a bit.

"Samara what's that what is troubling you?" I asked

"Veer... I ...I... Don't know how to tell you this..."

"You can tell me anything Samara. Nothing can just keep us apart" I said

"Or maybe someone can" she said tears forming in her eyes again.

"Who will?" I asked  clenching my fists.

"Randhir" she said sighing.

"Are you kidding me?" I asked taken aback. "But why?"

"It's complicated Veer" she replied.

"I can do anything for you and by anything I mean everything it takes for me to stay with you" I said a Stern expression taking over my face.

"First tell me why were you still in contact with him. Veer you promised me you'd never go back to that criminal life again!"

"I'm not understanding a word Samara." I said in a matter of fact tone.

"He asked me to stay away from someone I'm in love with" she said and immediately placed a hand on her mouth.

"And you're in love with?" I looked into her eyes.

"Umm... He's actually..." She said looking everywhere else.

Of course she was embarrassed.

Maybe she loves Anwar. Of course he's that gentleman type and I am the gangster type.

"Did you hear what I said Veer?" She asked.

"No" I said curtly.

"I said I love a guy but I'm not sure if he likes me back"

"Everyone loves you Samara" I said taking the box out and placing it in my pants pocket.

"What's that Veer?" She asked noticing it.

"Nothing Samara" I replied.

"Veer... You can tell me everything" she said mimicking me.

"I love someone but looks like she likes someone else" I said sighing.

"Okay then I'll tell you first no wait you tell me who it is first. And yeah it's a promise that neither will you stop talking to me nor will I " she said
