"I don't want to be even. I want to chase you. Will you let me?" he asked. "What if I don't?" she looked cold to him. "Then I'll still try. " he pouted. "Stop pouting Mr. Handsome. Try if you want but, the answer lies with me. And I won't answer you till your country's economy is completely out of danger. You're almost at the risk of being completely jobless here. And I don't think you'll be a husband that relies completely on his girl. Will you?" she was going all out in provoking him.

"Husband?" he smiled. "Is that all you heard?" she groaned. "So you're not rejecting me and will give me an answer after you complete your mission. I'm so thankful that you're talented and will complete it in a month. Can you go faster than a month? And actually I'm a bit against being a kept man but, if it's you then I'll think about it" he smiled teasingly. 

"What do you mean you'll think about it? I'll think about it. And I am rejecting you"she scoffed. "You're rejecting me ...for now" he repeated. "Oh shut up" she swatted his hand away. "As you say my lady" he leaned against the wall smiling. "Stop doing that" she grumbled. "I didn't do anything" his smile widened. "Yes you are. You're smiling at me" she accused. "I am. It's not a crime to smile" he reminded. "Whatever"she rolled her eyes and walked out of the room. (He insisted on opening the door for her? Bro chivalry is dead)

And they walked into Alesha on top of Rahul an inch away from breaking his face. Taehyung face palmed himself. "Get up" Meera glared and the both of them scrambled to their feet. "Explain"

"I heard a noise so I was going to check it" Rahul defended himself. "Lie. He was ready to follow you from the second you walked out with Taehyung. He was eavesdropping on us. You didn't notice him on your way out" Alesha accused. "What's he going to gain from that?" Meera groaned. "You. He's always pining after you. How can you not see that?"

"That's not true." Meera said sternly. "It's fine. She's a kid. She's protective of you" Rahul eased in. "No she won't get away with it" Meera was pissed off now. Alesha looked at Taehyung and went like See? Taehyung mouthed "Wait for it"

"Meera, you're probably angry because you know" Taehyung shrugged in. "Yeah, it's probably the mood swings. It's fine I'm not offended." Rahul forced a smile at Taehyung. "You don't know what I'm talking about. It's private, don't mind it" Taehyung retorted. "It's her periods. I know it" Rahul was pissed slightly now. Bingo!

"That's weird I didn't say anything about periods" Taehyung smirked. "So you were eavesdropping" Meera concluded. "No, I just figured out from his words" Rahul lied seamlessly. "Just go and sit. I'll make dinner" Meera walked away. Rahul held her by the arm lightly. "Let me help". "Let go " Meera sighed. "She said let go" Alesha glared. "No need to get angry. He understands, don't you ?" Taehyung smiled. Rahul didn't have any option but to let go.

They sat at the dining table. Alesha sat with Rahul so that Meera would have to sit with Taehyung. "Why were you trying to rile Alesha up?" Taehyung cut straight to the chase. "I did no such thing" Rahul denied. "I'm a major part of the Entertainment Industry. I've seen tricks like yours over a thousand times" Taehyung scoffed. "Major part of an economy that's going to fall?" Rahul smirked. "What are you talking about?" Alesha glared.

"Isn't it true?" Rahul asked, a tad bit confused. Alesha winked at Taehyung and he knew what to do. "What are you talking about?" Taehyung asked acting confused. "You don't know? It's in the group" he picked up his phone. "Oh. But, you're the one who sent it" he pointed out. "What group?" she asked.  "The economists one. That's why I'm here" Rahul flashed his phone. 

"That's not my number. Why is it saved under my name?" she scowled looking at the contact detail she tapped on.
