khushi looks at her surroundings that look deserted and shakes her head at her mother...

"Why are meeting here mother? " khushi asks

"there is someone important I want you to meet ... he's on his way here" neela states

"mom I don't have the time... I left my son unattended to because you said it was urgent and I needed you to know am leaving. " khushi states

"I don't care if your leaving... I need you to meet this man. " neela says

"neela please don't tell me he makes your heart flatter and feel things you thought you would never feel again.. I don't need a step father. " khushi states with a satisfied smile

"you can't help yourself, can you? " neela asks

"no I can't. " khushi replies still smiling

"he is not a romantic interest ..." neela states

"oh right... I almost forgot you are incapable of human emotions. " khushi says

"what you label as love is an emotional state of mind prone to anguish and torment, why would I subject myself to that? " neela asks

"dependence to escape from ourselves... what better way to achieve that than to immerse ourselves into somebody else and then call it love.. atleast i agree on you with love... to love is to be destroyed... now how much money do you need... tell me the amount and the reason, so I can say no " khushi says

"do you want to be free from me? " neela asks

"you have that dream too? " khushi asks

"am being serious... help me with this and I won't show you my face ever again. " neela states

"I have heard this line multiple times, what makes this time special? " khushi asks

"I mean it this time, I will be out of your life for good. " neela states

"this should be good, humour me. " khushi says

"this is for the both of us. " neela starts

"us?? Not just you? " khushi asks

"am finally getting my revenge. " neela announces

"key word *my*...at what point do I enter the conversation?" khushi asks "that's the part am most interested in. " khushi continues

"I need alot of money. " neela states

"am your personal piggy bank?" khushi asks

"I need it ..." neela states

"for what? " khushi asks

"my revenge." neela replies

"there's that word again, *my* your revenge... not mine.. What do you want it for? " khushi asks

"that's why your here... to meet the man am hiring. " neela says

"neela am not helping you kill my father... " khushi says

"this isn't about your father, it's about his daughter. " neela states

"me? " khushi asks

"the other daughter... you know the one whose husband you stole... wait he's actually your husband... Arnav's fake wife... I mean arnav's former fake wife. " neela says

"what has lavanya got to do with your revenge? " khushi asks growing worried

"I saw arvinid. " neela starts

"let me guess... your feelings for him came back? " khushi asks
