Vineet was in his room, lying on the bed and checking something on his phone, when Anupam call him.

He keep the phone on the side table and move downstairs.. 

He found Anupam waiting for him in the dining area.. He marched towards him and settled down for lunch. His eyes twinkle to see his favourite cuisines.. 

Anupam serve him lunch, Vineet smile at him. He was about to say something when Anupam phone rings. Anupam move to a side to attend the call. Vineet watch his father talking seriously which make him tense as well.. 

After sometimes, Anupam ended the call and marched towards Vineet. He found that, he hasn't started eating yet.. He glanced at him 

"kya hua? Start kyun nahi kiya? Anupam asked tapping his cheeks. Anupam secure his seat beside vineet.. 

" tu na lazy ho gaya hai.. Khata bhi nahi bina bole "Anupam said, he took a spoon full of rice and take it near his mouth.. 

Vineet glance at his father, who is much in tension but wasn't showing it.. He open his mouth and take the rice which his father offered him.. 

" kiska call tha "Vineet asked, chewing the food.. 

Anupam didn't reply and feed him with another spoon full of rice.. 

Vineet held his hand" Dad.. Kya hua hai? Kiska call tha? He questioned 

Anupam sighed "London se call tha! Humne jis company ke saath murge kiya tha, unke owner ki death ho gayi kal raat.. Unki sudden death ki wajah se wahan problem ho gayi hai" he said disappointedly.. 

"toh aap itne tension mei kyun ho.. Wo toh solve karengi hi naa problem" Vineet exclaims.. 

Anupam shook his head negatively "Aisa nahi hai Vinu.. Owner ek orphan tha aur aab unki death ke badh dusri companies usko overtake karne ki koshish kar rahi hai.. Unke MD chahte hai ki jitni company ne unke saath merge kiya hai wo wahan aaye aur unki help kare problem short out karne mei "He told him the matter.. 

" toh ismei kya problem hai, Aap chale chale jaiye naa.. Yahan main dekh lunga sab "Vineet assure his father… 

" Vinu, yahan meri jaroorat hai.. Padso Mr. Shergill ke saath deal finalise karni hai.. Kaise jaun main "Anupam spoke tensed.. 

" toh main chala jaata hoon Dad.. Mera yahan koi kaam nahi hai.. Wahan ka dekh lunga main "Vineet suggested.. Anupam seems Okay by the idea.. He nodded his head in affirmation.. Vineet smile.. They did their lunch after which, Vineet book his ticket..

"kya jaroorat thi aisa karne ki.. Maine bola tha na ki hum dubara try karenge, fir.. Fir Ruchi ki baat sun ke aisa kyun kiya tune Anu" she asked smearing her upper palm.. 

Anamika said nothing but pull back her hand, she clean her face..

Ruhana try to hold her hand but Anamika pull back her hand "kyun nahi karna check.." she asked..
