"Miss. Ghai you have only two days left. And in these two days if you don't clear your loan then I'm sorry to say we will have to get you arrested."
"Arrested? But for what?"
"On the accuse of not paying back your loan amount and on top of that you tried to flee away."
"But sir, two days are not sufficient. Please extend the due date."
"Miss.Ghai we have already twice extended your due date and I'm sorry now no more. We are not asking you to pay the complete amount, just an installment. Either you pay the money or get behind the bars."
"At least listen to me.." Before she could continue they call got cut.
Exhaling a frustrated sigh, she pulled out a chair and got seated. Two minutes later another girl entering the dining room carrying two bowls in her hand. Passing one to Kriya, she sat opposite to Kriya.
"Who was it?" The other girl asked.
"Who else do you think?" She said giving the other girl an obvious look.
"Bank officers?"
"Yeah." The first one said releasing another sigh.
"Kriya I think you should take up Kabir Shekhawat's offer."
"Ananya, we have already talked about it. And you know my answer. It's a big fat 'no' dammit." Kriya replied.
"Kri but how are you going to arrange such a lump sum amount. Five lakhs isn't a small amount. And you need to pay at least one fourth of it as the installment which is nearly one lakh twenty five thousand. The bank officers have already sealed your house. You lost your job. What are you going to do then?"
"I don't know Anny. But one thing I'm sure about is that I will never agree for that offer."
"Kri, I love you and I can't afford to lose you. You are my only family after my mom died."
"I love you too Anny. But can we not talk about that offer any more, please?"
"Fine! You win."
"Thanks sissy. And what do you mean by I am your only family? I though Akshay was included in your family." Kriya teased her best friend.
"Shut up Kri." Ananya said slapping Kriya's arm playfully while blushing.

"Rey our ad got posted in today's newspaper." A lady informed Rey, who was sitting across the table working on his laptop.
"Yeah fine." He replied disinterested.
"Common Rey, here I am talking to you and you are so engrossed in your work that you can't even reply me properly. For God's sake it is eight in the morning. Nobody starts working so early." The girl shut his laptop down and turned his attention towards her.
"Heena, what is your problem?" Rey said in a frustrated tone.
"Rey I'm your wife and not some servant. What is wrong with you?"
"Heena nothing is wrong. Now give me back my laptop."
"No, you have been acting different lately. I want to know what's wrong?"
"My problem is that I don't want someone else to bear my baby. Moreover I'm not ready to have a child yet." He yelled.
"You are not ready yet? Are you kidding me? It's been seven years since we have got married and from the past five years I've been listening that you are not ready for a child. And you know I have some complications due to which I can't bear a child even though I can conceive." Heena yelled back.
"Yeah right. You are more concerned about yourself than your child."
"Even if I had no complications, we would still need to opt this because my dear husband doesn't likes getting intimate with his wife." She said fuming.
"You know what its useless talking to you. Now excuse me, I've got work to do." Saying this he left, leaving behind a fuming Heena.
