Armaan walked out, towel slung low on his hips, hair damp, chest still glistening from the shower. He looked utterly at ease with himself, with zero regard to modesty. Adi looked up, and promptly froze. His grey eyes widened and jaw dropped. And then, he squeaked. "Aap... aap aise kaise aa gaye bahar?" Adi gasped, slapping a hand over his eyes like it would erase the visual now seared into his soul. "Main toh bas... mujhe laga ki... kapde toh pehen ke aate kam se kam!" Armaan raised an unimpressed brow. "Itna drama! It's just a towel, not a crime scene." "Aapke towel ka coverage policy unstable lag raha hai," Adi muttered from behind his palm.

"How can you corrupt innocent eyes, Armaan. Please kuch pehen lo aap." "Are you embarrassed? Color me shocked," Armaan said dryly, reaching for a shirt without a hint of urgency. "Aapko sharam nahi aati?" Adi groaned, grabbing a cushion and shielding his face with it like it was sacred scripture. "Main toh bas window ke bahar jump karne wala tha!" Armaan buttoned his shirt and looked at Adi. "Window open hai. Floor bhi upar ka hai. Feel free to jump, it might get us out of this marriage early." Adi hurled the cushion in Armaan's general direction. It bounced harmlessly off the edge of the wardrobe. Armaan didn't flinch. "Nice aim. Olympic ke liye try lo. India will be proud of you." Adi groaned and flopped back on the couch, face-first into his arm. "Hey Bhagwan, mere shaadi toh shuru hone se pehle hi sansanikhez lag rahi hai."
