Shivaanjali rushed towards Shanjh's room but she encountered Abhimanyu in the mid-way.

He was looking handsome in a black and grey suit. He had a genuine smile on his face, whereas Shivi, her face was pale and dull.

Abhimanyu-kya hua? Aap yu bhagti Hui kaha ja ri hai all ok?

Shivaanjali stared at him for a few seconds, she took a deep breath and then replied with a smile.

All ok Major! Aap hi ke pass aa rahe the, koi itna waqt leta hai tyyar hone mai? Aur wo dekhiye udhar apke dost to tayyar bhi nahi hue, jaiye unhe tayyar karwake laiye, n unhe bhi kuch acha hi phehane ko kahiyega, I don't trust his dressing sense🤣🤣🤣

Shivaanjali turned towards Rajveer
Raj jaiye ready ho jaiye.

Her eyes depict that she is restless, she wants to meet Shanjh as soon as possible, and she is eagerly waiting for Raj to take Abhimanyu...

But as usual, Major Bhargava interrupted. 
Major Bharghav
Did I just hear Raj? & Major Man Bhalla, Major Abhimanyu ke dost?
What's going on Captain?

Everybody stood there frozen, shivaanjali forgot that they were not Inside the room nor It was nighttime. They are in front of everybody, especially Major Bharghav.
Shivaanjali stared at Rajveer and Rajveer looked her back.
Bhargava sensed something Fishy!

Shivaanjali
Ah.. Humne kuch galat keh diya Major Bharghav, I mean Major Bhalla & Major Abhimanyu colleagues hai to friends bhi hue na.

Major Bharghav
Mai friends ki nahi Doc? Mai Raj ki baat kar raha hu, You just called him Raj! If I heard it right?

Shivaanjali stared at him blankly for a few seconds and then replied
Raj? No Major Bharghav you heard it wrong, I said Raju, wo kya haina Major Maan Bhalla ka pet name Raju hai, so he told us to call him Raju when we are off duty. You know as friends address each other with pet names.

Raj stared at Shivaanjali in shock, he was aware of her spontaneous skills
But Raju??? Seriously? He nodded his head in disbelief while Abhi had a smile on his face.

Major Bharghav
Oh, Really Captain! Raju???
Maan aur Raju ka kya logic hai??

Shivaanjali
Ab sir iska jawab to ek hi Insan ke pass hai, Major Maan Bhalla.

Hearing this Rajveer glared at Shivaanjali. All eyes were on him to have a suitable explanation for this mess.   

Major Bharghav
Major Maine bhaut suna hai apke bare but I have never heard this name Raju before???

He murmurs
Jab Maine hi apna ye naam phele ni suna to apne Kaha Suna Hoga???

Bharghav
Apne kuch Kaha Major??

Raj
Ah! Ni Major Bharghav, yeah, she is right my pet name is Raju...
U know pyar se to log kuch bhi naam rakh dete hai...
