Next Day

Piya reaches the office a little late today as there is a transport strike in the city.

To avoid the commute problem, she came to the office on her two wheeler without letting her mother know. Her father took the car to go to the office so she didn't have any other option than choosing her true love. . Sneaking behind her mother was a big task. She silently took the scooty till the main road and from there she started driving it.

Aryansh came to the office in his usual time and he gave a glance at Piya's desk which was empty so he dropped the message asking where she is after going inside the cabin.

Piya sees the message upon reaching the office floor. She settles her belongings on the desk and then replies to him.

Office - On my desk and received "ok" in reply.

The morning went to work and during lunch time, Simran called Piya to join for lunch. Piya could not deny Simran so she told her to go and she will join in 5 minutes.

In the cabin Aryansh is waiting for Piya to have lunch. Piya knocks and enters the cabin.

He sees her with a very happy face. (Internally Piya thinks - soon this happy face will become the angry face, courtesy of my own marvelous self)

Heyyy Babyyy

Aryansh finds her tone a weird not because she called him baby but the lengthy exaggeration of the word "baby". Her tone gives him the dubious vibes.

Hello

Baby, your lunch box,

She places the box on his desk and turns to leave

Where are you going?

Piya turns and sheepishly replies to him, You see

What I see, he narrows his eyes on seeing her unusual behavior

I am going to have my lunch

Yes, we are going to have lunch

No no, I mean I and you in you

What? he gets confused with her answer.

Actually, Simran asked me to join for lunch

Why? Yesterday, you told me that we will have lunch together.

Is that so? Piya acts as she's thinking, when she says such a thing.

Piya, what's going on?, his cold tone and she blurts out everything in fear.

Baby, when Simran asked me to join for lunch, I couldn't say no to her.

Hmm, okay, you can leave Miss. Sharma

Baby, don't be angry please, she goes to him and pecks his cheek whereas he simply ignores her.

I'm sorry, please have the lunch for me, she whispers in his ears and leaves the cabin but not before sending a last glance to his angry face.

Once she leaves the cabin, Aryansh had the food but his mind is off due to their cancelled lunch date and also due to Mrs. Kaur being a bone in his love-life. He can't do anything to Mrs. Kaur as she's been his assistant for a long time. She works hard and never gives him a chance to complain and that's the only reason he didn't say anything.

*********************

In the evening Piya leaves for home as she didn't receive any messages from her boyfriend. She is almost near to the home when her true love betrays. She knew this area at the back of her hand so she went to a known repair shop. She waits for the mechanic to repair the scooty.

She calls her home and tells Siya that she will be a little late. Before Siya can ask any questions, Piya cuts the call. Next minute, she receives the call from Aryansh

Hel...

Where the hell are you? Why didn't you tell me that there's a transport strike today? How did you come to the office today? Why are you quiet now?

Aryansh forgot to see the time while working and by the time he realized it was post 5. He came out of the cabin to drop his girlfriend but saw the empty desk. He understood that she left but he sees Mrs. Kaur which is weird because this woman never stayed late.

Mrs. Kaur why are you still here?

Hi A.S, today is a transport strike so I'm waiting for my husband to pick me up

The word strike sent him in a frenzy mode. He bid her bye and went to the parking lot while dialing Piya's number. Before she could greet him, he yelled at her.

Piya sees her phone with a frown and a pout. She gets emotional and replies in a low voice.

I'm at the repair shop. You didn't ask me about the strike. I came upon my true love and I was waiting for you to shut your mouth to reply, the last words she tells in a bitter tone.

TRUE LOVE

She closes her eyes and ears on his yelling.

I mean True Scooty.. no Scooty love.... no no on my scooty. I came on my scooty as Papa took the car.

Why didn't you call me in the morning? Why are you in a repair shop now? What happened?

I forgot to call you in the morning. Right now, scooty stopped when I was near my home. I'm all okay and you stop yelling at me. I am not liking this Aryansh.

He understood that she is serious as she calls him by his name so he lovingly asks her.

Should I come to drop you home?

Piya sees her phone and thinks what a weirdo he is. My home is a lane away. I can reach my home by walking for 8 to 10 minutes and he wants to drive 30 minutes from the office to drop me.

No, I can go by walk in 8 minutes and by my scooty which is almost repaired in 2 minutes. Why do you want to drive 30 minutes for this?

Aryansh slaps his forehead on her understanding. Sometimes this girl tests his patience and talks like a child.

I want to spend time with you Piya. Is it too hard to understand?

Piya bites her lips upon realizing his intentions and feels bad in making him angry.

Sorry baby

Let it be, drop me a message once you reach the home. Bye and he cuts the call

Piya's whole mood is off now and she tries calling him but he doesn't pick the call. She reaches her home with a sad face and drops the message to Aryansh who leaves it in a read mode. At night, after dinner, she again tries calling him but his number is not reachable.

She slept and thought to talk to him in the office.

******************

The next day, she reaches the office early to meet her angry boyfriend but comes to know that he is working from home. She tries calling him and every time she receives the message "In a meeting, will talk to you later". At night also he didn't talk to her which makes her sad and cry.

She calls him around 1 AM as she is unable to sleep and wishes he picks the phone which he surprisingly did.

Bab...by

Hmm

Aryansh saw her messages and calls but didn't talk to her the whole day. Seeing her awake at this time, he picks the call but doesn't say anything.

Babyy, I'm sorry. Please don't be angry

Sleep Piya

Kab tak naraaz rahoge mujhse (Till when you'll be angry with me)

Don't know

Babyy suno na (listen)

What

Why didn't you come to the office?

My wish, I'm the Boss and I don't need to report anyone

His rude tone is enough to shut her mouth. His careless words pricks her heart.

Seriously? she whispers in a very low voice

It's very late Piya, sleep now. Good night, and he cuts the call.

She cries and then decides that she will meet him tomorrow at any cost. She calls Atharv and asks him about Aryansh.

Atharv teases her initially but shares the secret.

********************

Aryansh is not in the mood to talk to Piya. She behaves as if he's forcing her. Every time some or the other excuse for not spending time with him. He may say something in anger and that's the reason he is avoiding her.

Is it too hard for her to understand that he wants to spend time with her? Before the accident, things were nice. They used to meet, go for dates and spend moments together but now it's just Hi Baby and Hello Jaana. Nothing else!

He decided to work from home for this week and will not meet her till Friday. Let's see if he matters to her as much as she matters to him.

***********************

Next Day Morning

Piya starts for the office from home but her destination is different today. From Atharv, she came to know that her angry baby is working from home this week so she called Mr. Ram and asked for the sick leave, who said okay and told her to take rest.

At Shekhawat Mansion

Good Morning Family

Atharv joins the breakfast table in a happy mood which does not go unnoticed by his mother.

You look very happy, what's the news Atharv? his mother asks him

Nothing Maa. I'm just happy and my friend is coming today. She will join us for breakfast, Hope you all don't mind.

Everyone teases with him saying "her" whereas Atharv suppresses his laugh thinking what will be their reaction when they see his friend. Atharv checks the phone and says she came.

He goes out to get her inside the mansion whereas everyone is curious to see his breakfast friend except Aryansh who is busy reading the newspaper while having the coffee.

Piya

Aryansh spit the coffee on the newspaper when he heard the word "Piya" from his family members. He turns and sees her with a shock face whereas she gives him a wave saying hello with a smirk on her face.
