Standing in the long queue, Aryan waited patiently for darshan. Well, not patiently. He had thousands of questions running in his mind.

Naina spotted, from corner of her eyes, Raghav leaving with his men. She turned towards Aryan. "He went away. Thank God he didn't recognise me."

Aryan narrowed his eyes. "So Miss psychiatrist, please answer my questions... wait, you can read my face and give hundred printouts, right? Start your story now."

Naina smirked. "So Mister engineer, I will start my story. I asked Raghav to apologize. Which he did as you see."

"I heard that."

Naina rolled her eyes. "Okay, you heard him. A year ago, there was a huge controversy, Raghav hadn't apologized to some lady. I knew that this time he would definitely apologize."

"Now I understood why he apologized."

"You noticed that his bodyguards didn't touch me. As they had helped Sugandha in running from there. They had confessed it when I we were in the court. We had sworn that we won't breath a word about her escape. They recognised me, I guess, that is why they stayed back."

Aryan was trying to register this new information. He guessed that Naina had seriously taken his comment start your story as she was not ready to stop.

"I had this fear that if that rapist recognises me then it will be difficult to execute our plan. I spoke to him in Marathi so that he couldn't recognise me."

Their turn came. Seeking blessings from Lord Ganesha, they walked with sudden burst of energy, ready for a mission.

Naina closed all the curtains in their room in Fatimanagar. Abdul came into the room with a box. "Beti, would these many candles do?"

Naina looked at the box and gave a satisfactory nod. "Yes Abdul bhai. Where is Karim? I wanted to talk to him about the hacking."

"I will send him immediately beti."

Aryan looked at Naina. Without even looking at him, Naina said, "Stop checking me out. Don't forget that I am married. I will slap but don't you think that Hitesh will leave you. He will beat you blue and black."

"Woah! Stop here. I wasn't checking you out. I have sincerely loved Sameera so I am not interested in you. I was wondering why would you want to hack any software. Who is this Karim?"

"I am Karim. Karim Kanchwala, a software engineer," replied a man with husky voice. He was wearing khaki coloured cotton kurta and pant.

Naina smiled. "Karim! How are you?"

Karim smiled broadly. "Naina, mt dear sister, I am good. Did Hitesh started talking to you?"

Her glowing face lost the shine. Looking at her reaction, Karim said, "What is wrong with this man? I will call-"

"No Karim. If you consider me as your sister, then don't call Hitesh."

"Okay Naina, don't threaten me with these emotional dialogues. About your hacking mission, I am able to hack into the system of Turf Club."

Naina nodded. "Good. First I will conduct my test on Aryan and then I will tell you my action plan."

No sooner did Karim left than Aryan asked, "What test are you going to conduct?"

Naina smirked which irritated him. "Hypnosis."
