The next morning, Kartik came downstairs. He was still upset but had fake smile on his lips. He saw Naira baking cakes in kitchen.
They didn't looked at each even for once. They showed each other like they were invisible.

After breakfast, Kartik went to his room to take some rest.
He laid on his bed.

KARTIK'S THOUGHTS
I'm making this more complicated. I should face her and apologise her. I know she's hurt and it's because of me. It's killing me seeing her like that.

He was having all these thoughts when he heard a knock on the door.
He opened the door and saw Naira standing there.
She came inside while Kartik didn't looked at her.

NAIRA: Kartik, we need to talk.
KARTIK: Naira, it's okay. Tumhe kuch kehne ki zaroorat nai hai. It was my fault. I'm sorry. (He said without looking at her)
NAIRA: I said we need to talk. (She said sternly)
KARTIK: Okay. (This time he looked at her)

Naira sat on the couch while Kartik sat opposite to her.

NAIRA: Tumhe kuch nai kehna?
KARTIK: I just want to apologize for my last night's behaviour.
NAIRA: Aur kuch bhi nai?
KARTIK: Nai. Naira we can start fresh. Let's just forget what happened last night. It was just the intensity of situation that's it. Nothing else.

She was having tears in her eyes listening to this.

NAIRA: Okay.
With this started to leave, when Kartik noticed her tears.
He held her by her wrist and confront her.

KARTIK: Naira, why are you crying?
NAIRA: Tum jhoote ho. (She said having tears stopped in her eyes)
He cupped her face and said: Maine kya jhooth bola tumse? (He said being concerned)
NAIRA: You said you love me. Now, you're saying it was just the intensity of situation?
KARTIK: How does it even matter? You still don't love me.
NAIRA: Like you do?
KARTIK: What if I do! But still you don't love me. I know that.
NAIRA: You're a liar. You don't love me.
KARTIK: I do. I do love you. Whatever I said last night was true. But it don't make sense as I know that you don't love me. (He was still cupping her face with his one hand)
NAIRA: And who told you that I don't love you? (She said with a heavy voice controlling tears in her eyes)
KARTIK: You jerked off my hands. Believe me it broke my heart. You make me feel like I've done some kind of a crime and I'm guilty for that. What's wrong if I love you?
NAIRA: It was so sudden for me. I didn't knew how to react.
And you were avoiding me the whole day. It broke my heart too.
KARTIK: I did it only to confirm my feelings for you. I didn't wanted to hurt you by my any action.
NAIRA: But you still hurt me by your actions.
KARTIK: What have I done?
NAIRA: You lied to me that you love me.
KARTIK: Can't you see in my eyes that how much I love you? (He said while making his hand's grip strong to her face while cupping)
NAIRA: And can't you see in my my eyes that how much I love you? (Tears were streaming down her face)
KARTIK: How will I know when you don't tell me?
NAIRA: And how will I know when you don't tell me?
KARTIK: I told you last night.
NAIRA: Raat gayi baat gayi.(she said very cutely)
KARTIK: Aise kaise baat gayi?
NAIRA: Jaise jaati hai waise gayi.
Tum fazool ki baaton me time mat waste kro aur kaam ki baat karo.
KARTIK: Konsi kaam ki baat?
NAIRA: Woh bhi main hi btaun? (Again tears formed in her eyes)
KARTIK: Tum ab kyun ro rahi ho?
NAIRA: Tumhe isse kya.
