Ruhana reaches her home, and as she heads towards her flat, the secretary of the society comes to her. She calls him uncle, as he's good friends with her foster mother. He tells her something and that leaves her worried.

" But uncle, how will I manage? You're telling it to me today?" she asks.

"Beta, I know this is sudden. But what can I do? We have to vacate it. And later on we have to book our own flats. The new owners are saying so." The man says.

"But uncle, you know this is the only place I own. Now, who will give me a place to live. None of my friends are here! They should hace given us time, atleast." she says dejectedly.

"Beta, I understand. But we have no choice. Just two days." he says.

Ruhana sighs. She assures the old man that she will do something about her residence. The man nods while Ruhana moves to her flat. She sighs and plops down on the couch. She remembers the conversation she had with Vineet, het her boss. She is able to work on her own terms, yet she is in a grave problem now. She needs to find a flat, where she can live. Though, the secretary says that she can book her flar again, but how? She doesn't have enough finances, and when the society will be under construction, she doesn't know how much will she be able to earn. She takes a deep breath and her eyes fall on her Maa's picture.

"What should I do, now?" she asks while taking the picture in her hand.

She's missing her, not because she has to leave this house, but it's a genuine feeling, and after knowing that she has to vacate this house, Ruhana is in a fix about what to do and what not. She hugs the picture close to her heart and then takes a deep breath.

She has two days. Maybe, someone will understand her situation and she will get a house to live. She also thinks about talking to Vineet since she read in the agreement, that he also provides residence to his employees who come from far away cities. She can ask him if he can help her. She decides on the fact and then moves to her room to freshen up. She also has to pack all her important things, and the things with which she has a related memory with her Ma. She doesn't know if she will be able to come and claim this home again, so she will pack everything that matters to her. With such thoughts, she freshens up, makes coffee and a quick dinner for herself, after which, she sets to pack her things.

Khanna Mansion

Vineet is in his room, thinking about his day at the office. He's quite affected with Ruhana and angry too. She's the only one who has talked to him looking at his face. And he can't bear it.

He couldn't say anything to her in the office, but he has sweared to show her the real place she's at. Sometime soon!

He bangs his hand on the wall and at the same time, his phone rings. He picks up the call and hums in agreement, and disconnects the call. He sighs deeply and leaves his room, only to move into another room, asking the other person to leave the place. As he enters inside, the other person takes a deep breath, as he could hear some screams from the room, and he leaves the place disappointedly.

Next Morning

Vineet wakes up, only to find himself alone on the bed. He looks around and finds a pretty girl staring at him with red and teary eyes. He rages seeing her.

"I told you to leave before I wake up!" he shouts at her.

" You'll pay for it Mr. Khanna! I don't know how people do business with you. You're a bloody beast." she shouts at him with all the energy she has.

He jumps off the bed and holds her face with between his fingers and thumb.

" We'll see to that. And mind you, you're being paid, so you've got to bear with me. Now shut yout fucking mouth and leave. " he shouts such that she's scared badly.

She leaves the room repeating her words that he will pay for it someday.

Yeah! He might be an ace businessman, but behind it, he's a person who seeks his happiness in women. New woman, every night! It's his philosophy. The calm soul in the day becomes a beast in the night, and he never cares for any woman whom he uses for his sexual satisfaction.

He orders the maid to clean the room and leaves to his room. He dresses up for the day.. It's gonna be a long one.

On the other hand, Ruhana wakes up in the morning. Her gaze falls on the half packed suitcases and bags. She remembers that she has to leave this house soon. She jumps out of the bed and stretching herself, she moves into the washroom to freshen up and take a shower. She has also put a status on her social media for a house on rent, but no avail. She thinks it's better to ask her boss for an accommodation, until she finds one reliable place.
Deciding it, she takes a shower and gets dressed for the day. Then she makes a quick breakfast for herself, after which she leaves for office.

She reaches the office amd gets an order from Vineet to make a presentation for a meeting based on a mail he has just sent her. She agrees and gets to work. But, today's a busy day. She's working back to back. During lunch time, Vineet leaves the office on account of a meeting. Ruhana sighs. She has to wait until day end to talk to him. She gets busy in her work dejectedly. Waiting has been her daily task.

She's working on her desk when the peon informs her that Vineet wants to meet her in his cabin. She nods and asks him to leave, while she finishes the task at hand and picks up the file and pendrive, and moves to his room. He demands to see the presentation, which she explains him with all the tiny bits of the same. She also asks for his signs on the file, which he readily did. She then looks at him.

"If you don't mind, can I ask you a favor?" she asks.

"What is it?" he asks still looking into the file.

" Actually, I am in dire need of an accommodation. I read that you provide it to your employees. Can you help me?" she asks politely.

Vineet tends to think and gazes at her. She's silently hoping that he'd agree but his words surprise her, and she's shocked as well.

To Be Continued.
