          After the flirt incident Megha was on the dance floor with her husband dancing to a slow song with flow of others. Maha was with Aditya who couldn't leave each others gaze so immensely filled with love.

          "Don't you get jealous seeing them like that?" Megha asked still looking at the couple.

          "No" Abhi answered making Megha shift her gaze to him.

          "Hell! Even I get a little jealous and you don't even feel a bit of it?" Megha scoffed.

          Abhi shook his head saying "I've more important things to focus" making her do the rounds.

          "Like" Megha asked making him pull her towards him.

          "You" Abhi said looking into her eyes and Megha exhaled unevenly while he continued "Let's get you fed now" and held her hand leaving to parking lot.

          Abhi took the keys from the driver and gave him the night off. After ten minutes into their drive Megha said "This isn't the way home".

         "We aren't going home" Abhi said and drove to the highest part of the city and stopped the car. They got out and Abhi went to the nearby vendor, purchased pav bhaji and sat at the end spot of the small hill and made her sit beside him tugging her hand.

         "It's so beautiful and quite. We can see the whole city from here" Abhi said handing her the pav bhaji plate.

         "I didn't know you come to such places" Megha said eating her pav bhaji.

         "Well I do" Abhi said taking a morsel from her plate continuing "And when did you and Mrs. Nissankara became such good friends?".

           "Since you literally threw her out of your office with your words that day. It's best friends actually and you can call her Lucky like you use to call her in the past" Megha said putting the finished plate aside and washed her hands with the water bottle.

           "It's in the past and it's over" Abhi said shutting off his playful mode making her sigh and lean her head on his shoulder.

           "I hate it" Megha said.

           "Hmm?" Abhi questioned.

           "I hate it when you shut off from me" Megha said closing her eyes. They sat there until midnight and reached home at two in the morning.
