"Adi ... you are here? I've been looking for you for an hour, why don't you answer when I called you? Everyone is waiting" Kartik said as he approached to him.
Upon hearing his voice, Aditya jumped up and looked at him in a dazed, motionless face again turned his face towards the end of the balcony when he looked again at the place where the person was standing, no one was there.
He frowned and looked at Kartik in astonishment, and again his attention was drawn to the part of the balcony where no one was there now.
He thought to himself, if Kartik would be looking for him, then who was that unknown person, and where did he disappear so quickly?
"Everyone is looking for you and you are standing here alone and enjoying the view?" he grabbed Aditya's wrist and dragged him towards the balcony exit "Hurry, we have to go dow...n..." He stood in the middle of the way, staring in astonishment at Aditya, who was still watching at the end of the balcony without any expression on his face.
"Adi?" Kartik called him with a confused look.
"ADI!!" as he called him louder this time , Aditya was jerked out from his thoughts and came back to his senses.
"Huh ... huhh?" Aditya answered him still in thoughts.
"where are you buddy?" Kartik asked him as he turned Aditya in order to face him.
"Hmmm ... " he answered as he faced Kartik still confused.
"I am asking where are you? How much did this rings exchanging affect you?! You haven't started your cohabitation life yet and you look this much confused and lost" Kartik said as he was giggling.
"Kartik ... Stop it yaar" Aditya said as he pushed him a little with a smile.
"let's go down stairs" he said circling his hand around Kartik's neck.
And they both went to stairs with wide smiles but before going down Aditya stopped and turned to balcony once again with a serious face still thinking about the incident.
"Adiiiii ... Come" Kartik who was In the middle of the stairs to the lower floor called him again.
"Yes ... coming" Aditya said as he ran down to him then they both went to the main salon.

"Don't think about bad happenings ... God willing, they are fine" Nandhini said with a reassuring but anxious smile.
" Why don't any of them answer? Dad what should we do?" Aditya asked Vijay with a worried face.
"I called home and Deepak (one of servents of Prakash's house) said they had left there a long time ago ... He didn't know more than we do" Vijay answered him as he was becoming more worried by passing each minute.
