Manik , Nandini n ruhi were sitting in the cafe. Manik introduced nandini n ruhi to eachother. Ruhi was busy in fidgeting with her fingers. Nandini kept her hands on her n said "ruhi if u still aren't comfortable to share your problem than it'scompletely fine. We understand " she tried to assure her.

Ruhi - it's not like that nandini. Woh actually i..I'm a bar dancer. I don't want to do this work but i'm helpless as if i won't do this than my family will be in trouble because i'm the one who earn in family as my papa is a paralyze patient.
Pichle do hafto se ( from last two weeks) ek admi ( man) roz ussi bar mein aata hai. Dance karte waqt woh mujhe chune ( touch) karne ki koshish karta hai. " she choke in between while saying this. Nandini put her hands on ruhi's  shoulder. She gave her a glass of water. Ruhi took a sip n keep it back on the table. " that night after bar was closed i was going back to home . He came there n said that he'll drop me but i refused but he tried to make me sit forcefully in his car. Somehow i freed myself from his grip n ran away , n i couldn't remember how i fainted while running " she look at manik " then u saved me " manan felt bad for her.

Nandini - ruhi leave that work. U don't need to do that work against your wish "

Ruhi - but my family.

Manik - Ruhi nandini is right n don't worry about your family. My mom runs an ngo i'll talk to her n u'll get work over there.

Ruhi smiled n kept her hand on his n said " thank you " manik doesn't like it so he remove his hand. Nandini saw this but thought she got emotional so she did it.

Manik - ok so let's leave " he said n both bobbed their head.

Ruhi got up first n left from there. Manan were walking behind her. Manik wrap his arm around her waist.

They came outside nandini turned towards ruhi b said "bye ruhi n take care..ok " ruhi smile n bobbed her head.

Nandini said bye to manik n went towards the car. She open the door n was about to sit inside but manik came . He held her hand n close the door. He ordered the driver to drive back to Malhotra Mansion n the driver left.

Nandini - manik kya hua ?

Manik - I'll drop u " he said smilingly.

Nandini - par " but spoke in middle "koi par var nahi meine bola na " n nandini agreed. Ruhi was watching all this.

Manan came towards their car when ruhi came n sat on the passenger seat.
Manik didn't liked it n nandini too found it weird but she chuck it. N look at manik n said " it's ok " he smile faintly. He open the door for nandini n made her sit n came on the driving seat.

He start the car when nandini noticed that they aren't going to Malhotra Mansion. So she asked " manik aap mujhe ghar drop karne wale tha na ?

Manik - ha nandu woh meine socha ki pehle ruhi ko uske ghar drop kar do phir i'll drop u " he said the last line with a smirk n wink at her as both were looking eachother through rare view mirror.

Then he drop ruhi first. Nandini came on passenger seat n they left from there. Manik wrap his arms around her shoulder n pull her close to him.
He drop nandini home n left from there not before giving a good bye kiss to her.
