Two days later

Sanyukta reaches her apartment and sits on the couch and samar comes from his room and sits next to her but she was engrossed in her own thoughts

Samar-having to do two jobs must be tiring right?

Sanyu-hmmm

Samar-I am sorry di

She looks at him confused

Sanyu-for what samar

Samar-I cant be of any help to you in any way

Sanyu(sighs)-samarrr.....you being here is everything for me...you are helping me a lot

Samar-but...I want to lessen your burden

Sanyu-listen to me samar, you have no idea about this but you are the reason why I am here, its you who keeps me going, with you being here I always have a feeling that I have some place to go, I have someone waiting for me, I have a family, so don't you ever think that you are not helping me, ok?

Samar nods

Sanyu(spreading her arms for a hug)-now come here

Samar-di, I am not a kid

Sanyu(pulling him with force)-acchaaa, you are only a kid for rd sir haan...?

She hugs him tight while samar tries to struggle but soon gives in and hugs her back with a smile

Samar-di

Sanyu-hmmm

Samar-I miss rd sir

Sanyu(sighs)-hmmmm, me too

Samar-he is so good na

Sanyu-hmmm

Samar-I want to be like him

Sanyu-you will

Samar(excited)-di, how is H&R?

Sanyu(equally excited)-its so fun you know and the people there aare so friendly and carefree, it doesn't feel like I am an intern there and even though harsh sir is really strict about the work getting done, he gives equal relaxation time to everyone

Samar-so its fun

Sanyu-super fun, and I've heard some say that when rd sir was around, it was even more fun

Samar-he is so good at everything, isn't he?

Sanyu-hmmm, now that I think about it, you are right

Samar-tch, I so want to see him

Sanyu-what can we do

Suddenly his face lightens up

Samar- video call

Sanyu-no samar, he will be busy at office right now, it will be only 12:30 pm there

Samar-which means if he is free he will talk, now give me your phone

Sanyu-I still don't believe that it's a good idea

Samar(raising one eyebrow)-then you can go to your room

Sanyu(remains seated)-yeah, whatever

Samar makes the video call but the first time it got rejected

Sanyu-see, I told ya

Samar sticks his tongue out at her and was about to redial but it starts ringing and he shows the screen at her which was showing an incoming video call from rd, with a wide smile samar clicks at the receive button and sanyu stands up and starts walking to the kitchen but as soon as she heard him cough, she stops on her tracks

Rd-I am sorry samar, when I tried to receive it, I accidently pressed the decline button

His voice was so hoarse and he was clearly suffering from cold which was depicted by his red runny nose

Samar-that's totally fine sir, but what happened to you, you look bad

Rd-ahh its nothing much, just a simple cold

That's when they both hear her

Sanyu- a simple cold, (saying that she come in the view of the camera and her eyes go wide looking at a tuked under the sheets rd) OH MY GOD, can that nose get anymore red, is this why you didn't call me for two days?

Saying that she takes the phone from samar's hand and starts interrogating him

Sanyu-did you see the doctor sir

Rd-I did sanyukta don't worry

That's when there was a knock at rd's door

Rd-just a sec sanyukta(to the person) come in skye the door is open

That's when both samar and sanyu hear an American accent

Skye-sir, here is your medicine and I took the liberty to buy some hot soup for you

Rd-thank you skye

Skye-and sir, I need your signature on some papers

Rd-sure

He takes the file and signs them

Rd-hey skye, meet samar and sanyukta(he turns the camera to face him) samar, sanyukta, this is skye

Samar-do you work with rd sir

Skye-sure I do, you must be the champ rd sir talks about, I'd love to see your work someday

Samar-really? I'd love to show it to you, this is my sister

Skye-hello mam, its nice to see you

Sanyu-hello skye, may I know something?

Skye-sure

Sanyu-is that chicken soup?

Skye-what? No its mushroom

Sanyu-ohhh, it will be good if you buy some chicken soup for sir, he likes that when he is sick

Rd who was not in the view of the camera smiles at that

Skye-sure mam, I'll keep that in mind

Sanyu-and please call me sanyukta

Skye-sure sanyukta, ok I should get going now, it was nice meeting you two

Samar-it was nice meeting you as well

Skye-bye sir,I'll bring back chicken soup in the evening

Rd-bye skye, take care

Skye leaves and rd turns the camera to him

Rd-thank you sanyukta

Before sanyu could say anything samar interrupts

Samar-sir, I think you should have that medicine and take some rest

Sanyu-but before that eat that soup

Rd(chuckles)-ok ok

Sanyu-bye sir, take rest

Samar-but di, I didnt talk to him properly

Sanyu-samar get off the phone, he needs rest

Rd-its ok sanyukta

Sanyu-no its not, you mr. samar Aggarwal get off that phone right now and you mr..(suddenly realizes that her tone was of a strict mom and changes it) I mean sir pls eat that soup, have your medicine and go to sleep

Rd-ok, I am sorry champ I'll have to go

Samar-its ok sir, bye

They cut the call and samar looks at sanyukta

Samar-hitler didi

With that he runs from there

Sanyu-samarrr

She smiles and goes to her room

Another two days passed by and karan was getting better under natasha's watch but he could see that she was not behaving the same as she did when they first met

She was taking out his after lunch medicines, when the door to his room was yanked open revealing a girl with the makeup of the whole world spread all across her face and she was wearing the shortest dress possible that too in red color

Girl-oh my god karan baby, what happened to you my baby

And she literally jumped on him engulfing him in a hug, karan was sitting there awkwardly while Natasha was looking at them with no particular expression, but she clears her throat

Natasha-hmmm, I am really sorry to disturb you both but, you see his rib cage is broken and crushing him like that wont do any good

Girl-and you are

Natasha could already see the hatred in her eyes

Natasha-ohhh no no, don't mind me, I am just a care taker and I was about to go after giving him his medicines

Karan-no you were not(to the girl) suzy, I had told you that I would call you, why did you come here

Suzy-oh baby, I was worried for you

Karan-I am fine, you can go now

Suzy-but I can take care of you(her finger travels from his neck down to his chest over his t shirt

Karan looks at natasha who looks away and he closes his eyes in frustration and holds onto suzy's wrist to pull her hand away from his

Karan-leave suzy, I think I had made myself clear from the start right, its better you leave

Suzy-i..

Karan-leave

This time it came in a more stern way and she leaves and the room was filled with an awkward silence which Natasha decides to break

Natasha-here, your medicine(she gives him a glass of water and medicine, he was about to say something but she continuous ) and tomorrow you have an appointment at 11, so I will come at my usual time and I've booked a cab since I don't know how to drive, do you have anything else you want me to do before I leave?

Karan could notice that she was not looking at him at all

Karan-stay

Natasha looks at him and he looks back

Natasha-I have to babysit

Karan-I'll pay you extra for staying extra hours

Natasha-i...I

She so wanted to stay but what she had heard of him and what she witnessed a few mins back made her want to leave this place as soon as possible

Natasha-I have a date

Suddenly his expression changes

Karan-oh.....ok

She grabs her bag from the table and looks at him

Natasha-bye, see you tomorrow

Karan-bye

Saying that he turns on the bed so that his back is towards her

She looks at his back for sometime, may be waiting for him to say something more but nothing came, so she leaves

She was on her bicycle going to her house when she remembers the conversation she had with her friends at the supermarket

Friend-oh my god Natasha, you are working at karan khurana's house, try to stay away from him

Natasha(confused)-huh? Why?

Friend-arrey you don't know?

Natasha-what?

Friend-he is a playboy, he plays with every girl's heart and throws them away like a tissue paper

Natasha-what rubbish, he seems like a good guy

Friend-trust me, I am telling you from my experience, he sleeps with them and the next morning he is a complete jerk, oh but he is really good at it(winks)

Natasha had no idea what she should say

Friend-just don't loose your virginity to him

Natahsa-he is my patient(flushed)

Friend-I know and a really hot playboy as well

Natasha-I got to check the stock

Friend-yeah do the same when you see him, run away

She puts the break of her bicycle

Natasha-she was right, he is a playboy but...

Then she remembers how he would look hurt everytime he sees that women and how his voice would crack when he talks about her

Natasha-which one is the real you?

Later that evening

It was the event night and everything was well set and harsh was really happy with the arrangement and he gave sanyu a nod of approval as soon as he entered the venue

Sanyu was wearing a simple black gown which had a slit ending right below her upper thigh

Sanyu-vids, I really don't like this dress

Vids-shh, sanyu you are in for an auction date, you have to look good so that the bid will be higher

Sanyu-but...

Vids-you are doing it for H&R

Sanyu-hmmm

Her eyes roams around and stops at the so called wishing well

Sanyu(under her breath)-stupid well

Vids-what?

Sanyu-nothing, where is parth, I don't see him much these days

Vids-I know, even I don't see him much, with karan's sir condition and him being his assistant, he has got so much work to do, he even stays after the office hours

Sanyu-he is working really hard

Vids-yeah, he said that he don't want to disappoint rd sir

Sanyu-with the way he is working,I don't think that he will disappoint him in any way

Vids-tch, but I miss him

Suddenly parth covers her eyes from behind

Parth-missed me?

Vids-finally you got time for me

Parth-sorry babe, I had a few reports to complete

Vids-ok ok, you look hot

Parth-thank you, and you are looking sexy

Sanyu clears her throat

Sanyu-two things to remember, 1. We are at an office party, 2. Harsh sir is coming this way

Suddenly they both stand apart and harsh reaches them

Harsh-for interns you kids did a really good job

Trio-thank you sir

Harsh-miss. Sanyukta, I've heard that you are participating in the auction date

Sanyu-yes sir

Harsh-good, all the best

That's when his assistant gupta ji comes

Gupta-sir, the auction date is about to start, that is the first event

Harsh-ok, enjoy the party

With that being said he leaves from there and sanyukta starts sweating

Vids and parth hugs her

Parth-hey sanyu, don't worry, everything will be fine

Sanyu-hmmm, I need to go, bye guys

Vids-all the best, be strong

Sanyu-hmmm

She starts walking to go to the back stage and she slowly closes her eyes to see his face which calmed her down, she opens her eyes and looks at the ceiling

Sanyu-pls bring him, I want to see him

Before entering back stage she gives a last glance towards the well and then disappears behind the door

Parth-I just hope, her date wont be a freak

Vids-what? I thought they all are businessmen

Parth-and? Not everyone is like the people here, not everyone is a saint

Vids-we need to stop her then

Parth-we can't, its her job, we can protect her after she is auctioned

Vids-now I am getting really tensed

Parth-lets just wait

The bidding starts and sanyukta was on 5th position and she got a date at 5 lakh with a really cute looking guy in glasses, clad in a dark grey suit

Vids-thank god, he looks fine

Parth-hmmm

Soon the guy comes to the stage and forwards his hand and she slowly and hesitantly takes it, she felt anxious at the instant they made contact but she didn't retreat it as not to embarrass both of them, he starts walking out of the venue

Sanyu-i...where are we going?

Guy-you have a date with my boss, I am taking you to him

Sanyu-I am not your date

Guy(smiles)-no mam, this way please

She looks around for parth and vids, but they were nowhere to be seen, and she was on the verge of getting a panic attack but it was all gone when she sees the person standing near a black audi, wearing a black shirt, with a dark blue blazer and pants

Sanyu(wide smile)-rd sir

She had no idea what came to her but on seeing him, she lost all her calm and composure, she releases her hand from the guy's hold and literally runs towards him and hugs him at once and there it was her protective shield, his warmth calmed her down, her heart which a few moments was about to burst out of her panic was now ready to burst out of happiness, he curls his hands around her and rests his head on top of her and he felt complete the very moment, she in his arms was the perfect thing for him in this whole world. The moment he heard about her being auctioned for a date, he wasn't able to calm himself down, he knew most of the dates included a dinner but there were a few brats who would try to do something inappropriate, even though securities were arranged for the same but he couldn't risk it when it came to sanyukta

Suddenly his train of thoughts were broken when he hears a sniff and he realized that she was crying, he tries to break the hug but she refuses to show him her face

Sanyu-why did you leave like that sir, we all came to stop you at the airport but you were gone, we all missed you so much

Rd-I missed you too

And she continuous to cry

Here parth and vids see that sanyu was hugging someone

Parth-wait, is that rd sir?(excited)

He was about to go to him but vids stops him

Vids(smiling)-yes it is

Parth-then lets go and meet him, I have ask him

Vids-lets ask later, don't disturb them now parth

Parth(confused)-huh? Its not like we are disturbing a couple

Vids(sighs)-now is the time

Parth-for what?

Vids-come with me

There you go guys

How was it?

RD IS FINALLY BACK.....OR IS HE? *EVIL SMIRK*

What do you guys think should happen next?

And Natasha now know what karan is like, do you think she will try to find out the truth or will just stay away from him?
