(Manik is driving the car, and Riya is enjoying the drive when Manik receives a call from the café manager. And his mobile is connected to the car's Bluetooth.)

Manik (on the call)- Is the work done?

Manager- Yes sir. Hum ne pura café 03 ghante ke liye khaali karva diya hai.

[Manager- Yes, sir. We have got the entire café vacated for 03 hours.]

(At this, Riya snaps at him, all shocked at hearing his statement and he looks on, confused at her.)

Manik- Okay. Good job. We will reach soon.

Manager- Okay, sir.

(He then cuts the call.)

Riya- Manik pagal ho gaye ho tum?

[Riya- Manik, have you gone crazy?]

Manik- Arey yaar kya ho gaya chilla kyu rahi ho?

[Manik- Hey, what happened? Why are you screaming?]

Riya- Manik, tumne pura cafe book kar diya. Vo bhi 03 ghante ke liye. 03 ghante kya karna hai vahan?

[Riya- Manik, you have booked the entire cafe. And that too for 03 hours. What are we going to do there for 03 hours?]

Manik- Geez, woman, calm down. What if you are a doctor? You won't be able to fix my ears.

Riya- Manik tum manager ko call karo aur usse kaho ki hume pura cafe book nahi karna hai.

[Riya- Manik, call the manager and tell him we do not want to book the entire cafe.]

Manik- Par kyu nahi karna hai?

[Manik- But why not?]

Riya- Par kyu karna hai? Hum vahan sirf ek table occupy karne wale hai aur kon si coffee peene ke liye tumhe 03 ghante chahiye?

[Riya- But why do it? We are only supposed to have occupied a single table there, and what coffee do you need for 03 hours to drink?]

Manik- Hum coffee ke liye vahan nahi jaa rahe hain. Hum vahan time spend karne jaa rahe hain. It is our first outing, and I don't want any disturbances. Isiliye pura cafe book kiya hai aur kuch change nahi hone wala hai.

[Manik- We are not going there for coffee. We are going to spend time there. It is our first outing, and I don't want any disturbances. That's why the entire cafe is booked, and nothing will change.]

Riya- You are unbelievable, Manik.

Manik- Thank you so much for the appreciation, but tumhe aadat daal leni chahiye. Because har baar tumhare saath aisa hi hone wala hai and I will not change my habit.

[Manik- Thank you so much for the appreciation, but you should get used to it. Because the same thing will happen to you every time, I will not change my habit.]

Riya- Vo to time hi batayega Mr. Malhotra.

[Riya- Only time will tell Mr Malhotra.]

Manik- We will see.

Riya- Yes, we will.

Manik- Tumhe achanak se kya ho gaya hai? Pehle to tum kitni shaant types thi. Aur ab kaise jangli billi ki tarhan ladd rahi ho mujh se. Pati parmeshwar hoon main tumhara. Koyi aise baat karta hai apne pati se?

[Manik- What has happened to you suddenly? At first, you were so shy. And now you are fighting with me like a wildcat. I am your husband. Someone talks like this to her husband?]

Riya- Are you done? Look, don't bother me. Otherwise...

Manik- One min. I am bothering you? And otherwise what? What will you do?

Riya- Nothing. Just leave it.

Manik- Okay then.

Riya- Okay then.

Manik (a little louder)- Okay then.

Riya- Kitni baar bologe? Ek baar bol diya to dubara volume badha ke kyu bol rahe ho?

[Riya- How many times will you say the same thing repeatedly? Once spoken, why are you speaking by raising your voice again?]

Manik- Tum bhi to cheekh rahi thi abhi thodi derr pehle. To dono saath mein chalenge ENT ke paas.

[Manik- You too were screaming just a while back. So we both will together visit the ENT.]

Riya- Manik, you have gone crazy.

Manik- Same to you as well, madam.

Riya- You just stay quiet and drive.

Manik- Of course.

Riya- Fine.

Manik- Fine.

(She then turns her face away, and he focuses on driving.)

Huh! Pata nahi kya ho gaya hai isse. Maine pura cafe sirf humare liye book kiya tha taaki hum time spend kar sake. But madam ko to padi hi nahi hai. Aur paise bachane ki kya zarurat hai? Itne paise to hain. Aise hazar cafe book kar ke bhi khatam nahi hone wale. Phir kis baat ki chinta hai isse? Oh, God! Kahin science ke chakkar mein maths to nahi bhul gayi ye? Isse pata bhi hai billions mein kitne zero hote hain? Huh! Agar puchunga to phir se jangli billi ban jayegi. Rehne hi deta hoon. Isse jo sochna hai sochne do mere baare mein.

[Huh! I don't know what has happened to her. I had booked the entire cafe just for us so that we could spend time. But she is not at all concerned about this. And what is the need to save money? There is so much money. It won't finish even after booking 1000 such places. Then what's the concern about it? Oh, God! Has she forgotten Math in the pursuit of Science? Does she know how many zeros are in Billion? Huh! If I ask her something, she will become a wild cat again. I should just let it be. Let her think whatever she thinks about me.]

God! What does he think of himself. Agar paise hain to waste karne ke liye thodi hain. Pure café mein karna kya hai isse? Baithna to ek table pe hi hai. Aur isse lag raha hoga ki main bachat karna chahti hoon. But mujhe ab isse kuch nahi samjhana hai. Kal tak to itna caring types ka tha aaj pata nahi kya kha liya hai isne. Ek minute! Breakfast to maine hi banaya tha subha. God! Kuch bhi bolungi naa to ghum phir ke baat mujh pe hi aa jayegi. Isse acha chup hi rehti hoon. Isse jo karna hai karne do.

[God! What does he think of himself? If we have money, that doesn't mean we waste it like this. What's there to do with the whole café? We are going to sit at a single table only. And he must be thinking that I want to save money. But I don't want to explain anything to him now. He was so caring until yesterday, but I don't know what he has eaten today. One minute. I had made breakfast in the morning. God! If I say anything, the matter will only come to me in the end. It's better that I stay quiet. Let him do whatever he wants to do.]

(They both then look at each other, pass sarcastic smiles to each other, and then again look away. They reach the café after 15 minutes, and Riya takes a sigh looking at it as it is the most elite coffee shop and restaurant in Mumbai. She then looks at Manik, who is talking to the manager and comes to her.)

Manik- Let's go.

Riya- Sure.

(He forwards his hand to her, and she happily intertwines her hand with him, and they go inside together.)

(They both go inside and occupy a table for two, and the server brings the menu card for them and leaves.)

Manik- So? Did you like the place?

Riya- Of course. It's nice and cosy. It's good.

Manik- Great. We can come here more often.

Riya- Only if you won't book the whole café.

Manik (joining his hands)- Okay, okay. I won't book the whole café the next time. Happy?

Riya- Yes.

(They suddenly hear something falling and look back to see that a server is standing shocked in his place, just looking at Manik continuously. Manik checks himself and then looks at Riya.)

Manik- Office wear mein itna acha lagta hoon main?

[Manik- I look so good in office wear?]

Riya (chuckling)- It is his reaction after seeing you being so sarcastic and especially smiling. This is his condition.

Manik- I hope he doesn't faint after seeing all this.

(They both then look at each other and burst out laughing but control their volumes and check out the menu.)

Manik- So I will go for an Espresso Americano. What about you?

Riya- Umm I will have an Affogato.

Manik- Okay. Let's order then.

(Manik then calls the server, gives the order, and orders some starters too.)

Manik- Okay, so tell me something. How long have you and Ridhaan been friends?

Riya- We both were in the same class from class 02. But I was always an introvert, so I never used to talk to him. But in class 03, they paired us for an activity, so we became best friends. Then he went to the States for further studies after 12th and returned after 03 years.

Manik- That's cute. You know, I have just heard these stories of such long friendships. I witnessed it for the first time today.

Riya- Tumhare bhi to friends honge school aur college mein. Unse contact raha ab?

[Riya- You too must have had friends in school and college. Are you still in contact with them?]

Manik- I didn't have many friends, actually. Like all of them were scared of me and my temper. So if someone used to be a friend, then after 2 days he used to run away in fear. But Cabir and I were best buddies. Like he was my gaming partner. We used to play football together daily.

Riya- Aww, this is so cute.

Manik- Apart from this, my experience of friendship has been bad. But uske baare mein abhi baat nahi karte hain. Let's enjoy our coffee here.

Riya- Yes, sure. As you wish.

(The server brings their food, and they both serve themselves.)

Manik- Okay, so let's do one thing. Let's play 20 questions.

Riya- Great idea. Let's start.

Manik- Okay, so I will start with the most basic one. What is your favourite colour?

Riya- I like blue and pink the most. What about you?

Manik- I like red.

Riya- Okay, so now my turn. What is your dream destination?

Manik- Italy. Yours?

Riya- Paris.

Manik- Nice. Great choice. Okay, so the next question is...

(They both then keep talking and enjoy their first date together. The day ends on a pleasant note for both of them.)

(Riya has a very important surgery in the evening today, and she is very stressed about it. She has been on the phone since the morning. Manik comes inside after having his breakfast, and the servant enters after him with a plate of food, which he keeps on the table and leaves. Manik sighs, looking at her, who looks super stressed while talking on the phone. She then cuts the call and starts analyzing the file again. He goes to her and takes the file from her and keeps it away.)

Riya- Manik, what are you doing? I need to reread the stuff. It is a complicated case.

Manik- You need to calm down and relax.

Riya- I don't have time to relax, Manik. This surgery is critical and...

Manik- And your health is equally important too. If you fall ill yourself, how will you take care of others? So first, have your breakfast and then work.

Riya- Manik, please, I will eat this later, I promise.

Manik- Come here.

(He holds her hand, takes her to the couch, and makes her sit. He then himself sits in front of her.)

Manik- Why are you so stressed, baba? This is not your first surgery, right? Then why worry so much?

Riya (scared)- I know this is not my surgery Manik but the case... It's very complicated. And this surgery is the only option we have. I am scared, Manik. What if something went wrong?

Manik (cupping her face)- Nothing will go wrong. Trust me on this. You know I am 200% sure that you will handle all this. And when the patient leaves the hospital all healthy after the surgery, you will remember my words.

(She chuckles a little at his words and takes a deep breath. He then holds her hands and looks at her while she too looks back at him.)

Manik- You can do this, okay? And you are going to rock it. Trust me.

Riya- I hope what you are saying becomes true, Manik.

Manik- Of course. But before that, you need to finish your breakfast quickly. Come on.

(He then gives her the plate, and she haves her food while he gets ready. After around 30 minutes, both of them leave for their respective workplaces.)
