Angel, Ruhana step inside RaMore. Their company complex is a huge building in the heart of Bandra. It's just that it might not be theirs soon--

Angel calls for her PA as soon as she sets foot in her cabin. Her frown deepens looking at the papers that say over 90% shares have been transferred to Taksheel industries.

That bastard! Ruhana growls seeing both their signatures on the bond papers.

"How could they! Angel, I'm sure there's an inside man"

Angel nods. "This is so sudden. Mujhe lagaa hi nahi ki Taksheel ye chal chal sakta hai. Ab hum is inside man ka pata lagayenge kaise! Should we be glad ki 90% gaya?"

Ruhana frowns. "Ye jo bhi hai, he's challenging us! Like I feel ki ye to bas shuruaat hai."

Angel nods. The two of them are determined to find out this inside man soon enough. The take over process is due in two months. They need to stop it before it's too late.

***

Outside his office, Lawyer Vineet Kumar is waiting for his assistant to show up. Why must Anamika be late? This is her first court hearing and he asked her to be on time.

He needs to put that nautanki baaz on the line. But then why did he even accept her as his assistant? Ridiculous!

The first time he saw her was in a conference. It must be her final year... her ideals about law have attracted him. And when she coincidentally showed up at his office he took her in. Just then--

"Sir!!"

Anamika comes running, screaming...

"Sir, I'm here!"

Anamika looks a little out of breath. Even with her hair out of place,she's beautiful.

"Finally. You're here."

Anamika apologizes, "sorry sir. Wo aaj-- paidal aayi"

She feels bad for lying. She was worried about the entire phone call thing in the morning and didn't realize where she was walking.

Vineet smiles. He can't scold her when she's this sincere.

"Koi nahi.." he pats her shoulder. "Chalo chale..."

Anamika smiles back. Vinu sir is really sweet. She must take his help. Maybe together they can take on this situation going on with their business?

They move to his jeep. Anamika sighs. How does she ask? Vineet hates rich people. So she kinda lied to him she's from a middle class family and now she's going to be poor? For some reason, she can't keep her mind clear.

"Ye kya! Chaaro pahiyon ki hawa nikaldi?!" shrieks Vineet.

"Ye zarur defence ki sazish hai, " comments Anamika.

"aur aaj transport strike hai.."

"Aur court hearing, sir?"

"Wo nahi rukegi, Ana..."

She smiles... she loves it when he calls her Ana. Well he's such a dashing lawyer-- maybe it's the man whom she loves the most--

Whoa!

Vineet eyes her weirdly. What's wrong with his assistant? It doesn't take her much to daydream--

"sapne baad me dekho aur chalo..." He drags her by the arm... "chalo nahi, ab bhagna padega!"

"Kya?"

Anamika exclaims but follows her senior. The duo run hand in hand.

"Wo proofs hai na, Ana...?"

"Haan. Hai sir."

Running is tiring and the court is still far. They have covered a quarter of the distance when they spot someone's baraat. Well, the others seem to be taking a break. The dulha is a little far away... and he certainly seems to dislike his horse.

Vineet hurries and picks up the man, and sets him down on the ground.

The dulha is in shock. But before he can scream Vineet takes the horse from him. He puts Anamika in the saddle and speeds off.

"Wah sir!! Woo!! Maza aa raha hai!" Anamika laughs.

"Shadi nahi hori tumhar jo tum itni chillarahi ho!"

Vineet sighs.

"Han sir! Mujhe pata hai.. Par dekhiye na... mera pehla din court me aur main ghode pe jari, apne senior k saat! Mujhe sharam aari..."

Vineet can't help but laugh... Anamika joins him and the two of them are speeding off towards metropolitan court,

Daily News Office

Priyanka just steps inside and heads to her desk. She immediately turns to her colleague and asks.

"Aaj Dushu na aya?"

"Nahi wo field work pe gaya."

She sighs hearing that and drops down in her chair when the another colleague calls her name--

"Hey suno. Adi sir tumhe bulare. Lagta hai Dushyant ne tujhe recommend kia hai, Pree. Go go go!"

Priyanka's eyes widen. "Adi sir?"

Frowning, she makes her way to the editor Aditya Kapoor's cabin. Mr. Tall and Scary... there he is.

"Come in."

He says when she knocks on the door.

"Oh Miss Rathod. Dushyant tumhare bare me hi bolke gaya... you're excellent for this job indeed."

Priyanka manages a hello, then listens closely to what her senior has to say. Apparently this is for a scoop... and she has to work with him?!

She sighs inwardly, muttering... "ye kaha fasadia Dushyant ne!"

Aditya is oblivious to her feelings. He goes on with a smile.

"If you did good then we can go on more adventures."

Priyanka smiles at him. "Par mujhe tumhare saat nahi jaana, matlab kaam bigaadna hai mujhe--"

"Huh?"

Aditya blinks-- did he hear her correctly?

"Kuch nahi sir," Priyanka hurries to explain. "I was saying ki I look forward to working with you. Thank You."

Aditya nods. A little mortified for blurting her feelings aloud, Priyanka exits his cabin in a hurry.

Aditya laughs as he watches her go.

Now he's sure he heard her correct. To say it in his face, Priyanka is something else. Either a bumbling fool, or just a frank lady-- he can't wait to find more sides to her.

Tamiz naam ki koi cheez nahi!

Angel mutters under her breath as she walks past the security personnel to enter the Taksheel's enterprises Head office.

"Where's that bastard now?"

Ignoring the men hot on her tail, she makes her way to the CEO's room.

Taksheel Mehta isn't pleased when she barges into his cabin. For a rotten old man in his seventies, this man is greedy and has always had his evil eye set upon the business owned by the young women.

"How dare you!" Angel glares at the bald headed old man. "Tumne ye sab kia kaise maalum nahi, Taksheel... par tum bahut pachtaoge!"

Taksheel frowns and feigns ignorance. But Angel knows he's only acting--

"Humne kya kia? Legally khareeda tha wo shares."

"To wo paise kaha gaye sir? Hawa me udd gaye?" Angel screams unable to keep her temper under control.

"Kya pata? Isliye to main bolta hoon, auraton se nahi hoga business chalana."

Angel grits her teeth. She usually respects elders. But this man-- "buddhe tu chup hoja! Warna goliyon ki barsaat hogi tumpe--"

She has her gun, yeah.

"Ohh ab tum jail bhi jana chahti bitiya?" Taksheel taunts. "Afsos! Business to gaya hi... ab ek wahi hona rehgaya... waise agar tumhare khilaf sajish hui, to isme mera kya kasoor hai beta? Main bekasoor hoon."

Angel huffs-- "dekhte hai. Hanslo tum abhi... kyu ki baad me rone lagoge."

She hears the old man pass a snide remark-- 'filme bahut dekhti ye' but she ignores it.

One day, she will teach all her foes a lesson. And that day isn't far.

Ruhana sits in her favorite cafe with a coffee in her hand. Angel went home after their brief office visit. Did she really go home though? She hopes Angel didn't act on impulse and do something rash. Well, her anger is justified. Everyone at RaMore has a different attitude now.

No one respects them anymore... it was hard to hold their heads up this morning.

Her coffee is growing cold but she can't bring herself to drink. She just hopes she can find a way to sort out the mess. Just then--

"Ruhana... tum yaha?" a voice greets her.

It's Dushyant, her and Priyanka's childhood friend who's grown into a fine journalist.

He drops into the chair across her and smiles.

"Hey Ruu, kya hua? Why the frown?"

Ruhana sighs. "Business issues... aur mujhe naukri chahiye. Well, company k future ka sawal hai."

Dushyant frowns. "Kya hua company ka? Wo to thik hai na?"

Should she tell him the truth? It's impossible to hide things from him anyway.

"Sazish rachi jari hai humare khilaf, Dushyant..."

"Kya? Kya hua? Main kuch madad karu?"

"Nahi, ye hum behnon ki jung hai. Ye.. Ye Taksheel industries ka head. Usne humesha auraton ko neecha dikhane ki koshish ki hai. Ab auratei hi usko sabak sikhayengi. Par main hairaan hoon ki wo itni ghiri hui harqat bhi kar sakta hai..."

Dushyant is in deep thought frowning. Ruhana laughs sadly

"Sorry... tum yaha hello bolne aye.. Aur maine tumne apne problems sunadia."

"Nahi Ruu, I'm glad I came. And dost hote hi isliye na, ki sukh, dukh sab baante..."

Ruhana smiles. "Thankyou Dushyant. Don't worry. I'm sure sab set hojayega."

Dushyant laughs.

"Hey wo meri dialogue hai. Lagta hai mujhe tumhe himmat dene ki zarurat nahi... wo tum mei hi hai. Main ek detective se baat karta hu. Shayad wo iss inside man ka pata lagaa paye.. Aur kuch karu main?"

Ruhana thinks for a moment, and then--

"Bas nokri suggest karo kuch...."

"Ek dance school hai.. Mere dost ka. Tum waha kyu na jaati?"

"Huh?"

"Tumhe humesha se dance pasand tha.. Aur ye achi nokri hai, tumhara stress bhi duur hojayega."

Ruhana nods. "Yeah, sounds good."

She takes the card she offers. They drink their coffee and chat. Talking to best friends always helps with your mood. She goes home with a smile on her face.

***

That evening the sisters all are gathered in the living room, chatting about the events of the day when Angel lets out a cry of anguish. The comb she has been using to brush her hair drops from her hand, and she collapses into the sofa with a thud--

"Tum logo ne to job dhundhlia! Main kya karun?" she pouts.

"I can't believe ye aap puch rahi hai! Aap! Sherni kabhi confuse nahi hoti yar..." says Priyanka sitting next to her.

"Yes meri sherni, ab hans bhi lia karo..." says Ruhana sitting on the other side.

Angel nods. "Hann. Par main confused hu! Socho socho... mujhe khali na baithna. Khali baithi to uss Taksheel ka khoon hojayega mere haaton."

The sisters sigh. Just then Anamika arrives from her room, newspaper in hand. She's still excited about winning her first case... her sisters promised her a celebration together but she wanted to do something too.... And she just found the right thing!

"Dii... you're lucky! See, superstar Mahesh needs a manager!"

Angel gives her a bored look. "Toh?"

"To kya? Ban jaiye unka manager!"

Priyanka lets out an excited squeal. "Wahh! Fir to hum sab Mahesh se milsakte hai!"

Ruhana nods. "Haan. not a bad job..."

Angel glares at them all. "Main kyu banu? Uski films mereko pasand bhi nahi! Overacting karta hai..."

The girls all almost shriek... "haww!!"

Ruhana laughs. "Angel, mujhe lagta tum sirf bahana banarahi ho. Mujhe lagta ye job acha hai for you. Waise I know normal jobs aren't made for you."

Angel laughs, looking pleased. "Haha. sahi hai... Okay... dekhti hu. Mujhe na lagta ye job milega. Par okay... I'll contact them."

The girls all giggle and squeal. Their mood is suddenly upbeat again. Everyone feels the same... until they are together like this, they can overcome any obstacle.

****

NEXT:

The sisters celebrate Anamika's first win in the court. Someone is tailing them...

Ruhana's car hits a bike!??

Priyanka screams in her office-- "Dushyant, main tujhe chodungi nahi!!"

Angel gets a phone call. Anamika is thrilled to be praised by her senior.

Life is chaotic but beautiful.

TBC!
