That night Arjun was watching tv while Sakshi making dinner. Suddenly Arjun's phone buzzed. It was Sameer. Arjun smiled and picked up the call.
Arjun: Ohho Mr. Ashique boliye keya baath hai?
Sameer: Andha ho geya hai keya? Yeh Ashique koun hai?
Arjun (laughing): Tu aur koun?
Sameer (sighing): Toh Sakshi ne tujhe baatha dia?
Arjun: Ha. Biwi hai meri toh mujhe nehi bataegi toh aur kisse batayegi. Aab baatha keya hua tha? Keya kaha Aisha ne? Tune kuch gadbad to nehi kardi na?
Sameer: Oh saab baad mein. Filhaal mujhe tujhse kuch jaroori baath karna hai...
After finish talking Arjun went to kitchen. Sakshi was chopping vegetables. Seeing him she smiled but Arjun could say that she is a bit tensed. Arjun went to her and hugged her from behind. Arjun kissed her neck but she stood still and didn't respond.
Arjun: Keya hua Sakshi? Is everything allright?
Sakshi: Woh Arjun mujhe tumse kuch baath karni thi. Riya ke baare mein.
Now Arjun became stiff.
Arjun: Keya hua? Ussne kuch kaha tumse?
Sakshi: Nehi Arjun. Aisi koi baath nehi hai. But I think she is having a hard time accepting our relationship.
Arjun scowled..
Arjun: Tumhe aisa kiyu lag raha hai?
Sakshi became silent. Thinking if she should tell him about it but then decided against it.
Sakshi: Nothing Arjun. Bus mujhe aisa laga. Please Arjun haam usske liye kuch kar nehi sakhte? Please.
Arjun: Thik hai Sakshi. Mein sochta hoom.
When Arjun was about to leave Sakshi grabbed his arm. Arjun looked at her enquaringly but Sakshi just hugged him tight. Arjun didn't asked anything but hugged her back. He knew she was upsate. Something had happened and it's about Riya. He will have to do something. Soon.

Shree (hesitating): Tum mere saath aa sakhte ho. Mere ghar. I mean aagar tum chaho to.
Liza: Tumhe koi problem to nehi hoga na?
Shree: Nehi. Bilkul bhi nehi.
Liza thinks for a moment. She had nowhere to go at this moment. While she always fought up with Shree she really trust him.
Liza: Ok. Chalo.
Shree (a bit releaved): Thik hai. Pehle chalo woh garage mein chalte hai. Mujhe aapna bike lena hai.
Liza just nodded and walked with Shree. His bike was ready. He paid the mechanic and sit on his bike and started it. He gestured Liza to sit behind him but she nodded negatively. Her face was pale. Shree got down and came to her.
Shree: Liza are you okay?
Liza: Woh..woh Shree..woh mujhe bike pe chadne se daar laghta hai.
Shree (disbelievingly): KEYA?
Liza just nodded meekly. Shree took a long breath and stared at her eyes.
Shree: Tum mujhpe trust toh karti ho na?
Liza just nodded.
Shree: Toh mujhpe bharosa rakho. Tumhe kuch nehi hoga. Main tumhe kuch nehi hone dunga.
Saying that Shree sat on his bike and started the engine. He beckoned Liza to join him. Liza closed her eyes and prayed Jesus to save her and sat behind Shree. Shree started the bike and Liza hugged him from behind tightly. This close proximity was creating a havoc inside them. They were feeling a strange emotion they couldn't understand or didn't want to understand.
