Gauri entered into Omkara's cabin and sat in the sofa that was placed in the corner of the cabin silently looking around the room. It was a spacious room with ceiling to floor glass windows portraying the view of the city.

She was getting bored sitting alone in the room and on top of it, she left her back pack in Rachel's cabin where she couldn't go to get it. She began to play chess that was sitting on the coffee table supporting her head with her hand, elbows on the knee.

"O... " Rudra called entering into Omkara's cabin with a large chips packet and coke in his hands and stopped seeing Gauri in Omkara's cabin.

"A girl in Omkara's cabin?" Rudra wondered, "Nah.. Nah... May be I might have entered a wrong room." He thought and walked outside closing the door behind.

"Omkara Singh Oberoi, CEO." Rudra read the name on the door, "It's the correct room, A girl is sitting in Omkara's room!?" Omkara's hiding a girl in his cabin! Waah! Omkara toh chupa rustum nikla."

Rudra walked inside Omkara's cabin and carefully walked towards Gauri, who was playing chess oblivious of Rudra's presence.

Rudra walking near Gauri and cleared his throat. Gauri lifted her head up and looked at Rudra with big doe eyes.

"Erm.. Hi. " Rudra said looking at Gauri.

"Hi." Gauri said confused.

"I am Rudra Singhania." Rudra said looking at Gauri.

"I am Gauri Sharma." Gauri smiled. "Omkara's friend and neighbour."

"Wow! I am Omkara's friend too." Rudra said.

"Really, then that makes you my friend too." Gauri said happily, "you want chocolate, Bud." Gauri said offering chocolate to Rudra.

"Bud?" Rudra asked surprised.

"Yes, we are buddies now right?" Gauri asked skeptical.

"Yes, we are." Rudra said taking Chocolate from Gauri and offering his chips packet to her. "And friends share."

"Thank you." Gauri said taking chips packet from Rudra.

"Why are you playing chess alone?" Rudra asked sitting in front of Gauri.

"I have no one to play with, Omkara went to meeting and Arjun said he don't know chess and ran away." Gauri said sadly.

"Well, then you found a right person, I know how to play chess." Rudra said rolling his sleeves up.

"You know! Will you play chess with me?" Gauri asked hopefully.

"Sure, but for that you need to something." Rudra said making a serious face.

"Okay." Gauri nodded, "Tell me, what you want me to do."

"First of all," Rudra said looking at Gauri, "You should call me Rudra or Rudy instead of Bud."

"Umm...can I will call you Ru?" Gauri asked.

"Only if you let me call you Ri." Rudra said smiling.

"Done." Gauri clapped. "Now can we start playing?"

"Yes, but with every move of the chess piece you gonna answer one of my question. Okay?" Rudra said arranging the chess board.

"Okay." Gauri said making a move on the chess board.

"So, how did you met Omkara?" Rudra asked making a counter move.









Omkara wrapped up his meeting with the clients after signing up the contract successfully. He looked at his watch and found that he was late than the time he told Gauri.

"Shit, now this girl would accuse me for being late and would make drama for keeping her waiting, typical female species drama." Omkara mumbled opening his cabin door.

"And then Ganesh bhaiyya told me he would give the address of the jalebi shop to Khanna." Gauri said making a move on the chess board eating the chips with another hand clumsily.

"You know, I know the jalebi shop that Ganesh bhaiyya told about, I will take you there." Rudra said throwing the chocolate wrapper on the floor carelessly.

Omkara stopped in his steps and froze at the door watching Rudra and Gauri happily playing chess, chit chatting like old friends while eating snacks sitting amidst of a pile of chocolate wrappers and empty chips packets and coke bottles.

"Check mate." Gauri said clapping.

"What! No. I won't accept this." Rudra whined.

"You have to accept it." Gauri said grinning, "I defeated you. "

"Fine." Rudra pouted.

"What's going on here?" Omkara asked recovering from the shock.

"Om." Rudra said standing up from the chair dropping the popcorn packet in the process scattering the corn all over his cabin floor.

"Omkara, Ru and I became friends." Gauri said smiling excited.

"Ru?" Omkara asked raising his brow.

"Yes, I am Ru and she's my Ri." Rudra said giving a HiFi to Gauri irritating Omkara.

"Do you want to go to the Jalebi shop with me, Ri." Rudra asked looking at Gauri.

"Ye... "

"Don't you want to go for Ice cream shop?" Omkara said cutting Gauri off, "It's getting late and I don't have time, get moving." Omkara said pulling Gauri with him.

"You guys are going to eat ice cream?" Rudra asked excited.

"Yes." Omkara said pushing Gauri behind him and stepping closer to Rudra. "And you stay away from that girl, you know right, girls are deceptive."

"Ha.. Ha.. But she looks different." Rudra said gesturing towards Gauri.

"Just stay away from her and everyone's same." Omkara warned.

"Okay... Okay." Rudra said raising his hands in surrender.

"You wanna join us to the ice cream parlor, Ru?" Gauri asked Rudra from Omkara's back.

Omkara shook his head at Rudra mouthing him to say No.

"Why not, Ri." Rudra said pushing Omkara aside and walking towards Gauri, "Let's celebrate the beginning of our friendship with ice cream." He said opening the door for Gauri to step out.

"Yes." Gauri said and walked out of the cabin.

"Sorry, Om. She's cute and unique,I can't say no to her." Rudra said to an annoyed Omkara before following Gauri.







"What's your favourite chocolate flavour, Ri?" Rudra asked from the back seat of Omkara's car.

"I like Chocolate ice cream, Cookie N Cream and Cookie Dough Ice cream." Gauri said excitedly turning around in her seat to face Rudra.

"Wow! Even I like all those flavours, they are my favourite." Rudra said making Omkara roll his eyes, "We have everything in common, we love eating food, we like same ice cream and we both a cute."

"Sit straight in your seat and put on the seat belt." Omkara ordered Gauri irritated making her turn around and sit properly in her seat beside Omkara.

"You know, Ri." Rudra said from behind looking at Gauri through the mirror, "From next time, if you want to eat ice cream call me, we both can go and have it without this guy." Rudra said making Omkara glare at him.

"We reached." Omkara said stopping his car in front of the ice cream shop.
