....eyes get locked.

"Sir! Sir!" A girl voice is heard.

Shylok blinks and see Julia standing near the table with some files. He suddenly looked around. He was sitting on his rolling chair.

Shylok: (MV: argh... i dozed off...)
Um.. yes Julia?

Julia: sir, Mr. Prakash is waiting in the reception to meet you.

Shylok: Please get him in.

Julia: Sir, and these files are needed to be checked...

Shylok: Keep it here.

Julia: ok sir!

She leaves swiftly. Shylok massages his hair and looks at his phone. The door knob opens.

Prakash: May i come in?

Shylok: Sir, please come in.
He said standing up.
Have your seat sir.

He showed the chair opposite to him and he sat on his chair.

Prakash: I just wanted to meet you. How is everyone?

Shylok: All doing well sir.

Prakash: Actually i wanted to meet you before, but I was carried away by personal matters... that Rahul..

On mentioning of his name, Shylok sighs.

Shylok: sir, he is in jail right now. The place where he deserves to be..

Prakash: What is the motive behind this act?

Shylok: that's what we couldn't figure out... but there is nothing to worry on it... how do you know about this?

Prakash: Chandra informed me two days after the mishap. Isn't he here?

Shylok: he has gone to a trip.. he will be back tomorrow night.

Prakash: ok. Just wanted to know if something bothering...

Shylok: nothing. Work is getting good. That's it.

Prakash: If any problem occurs, please remember you have me on your side.

Shylok: sure sir. Would you like to have coffee?

Prakash: No da. I am heading to important meeting. Wanted to meet you once. We will meet up later.

Shylok: ok sir.

Prakash leaves. Shylok gives a serious look after he left and gets into a thought. He takes his phone and calls Durga. She didn't answer.

He looks at the clock. 11 am.
He takes up the files and checks over it. After getting into those files, he leaves the office.

After having breakfast, Chandra and Nandhini boarded a taxi.
Chandra was scrolling through his phone. Nandhini got bored looking at the window for straight 5 mins.
She looked at him.

Nandhini: what you doing?

Chandra: Looking were we can head to now... his eyes were still glued to phone.

Nandhini lie on his shoulders.

Nandhini: Were are going now?

Chandra: Nearby bird sanctuary.
