Shivaay and Saahil were glaring at each other meanwhile Anika looked at them confused.

'Saahil, say Hi or Hello', she tries to make them have a conversation. 'Shivaay Sir, say something... until a while ago you were so curious about Saahil. What happened now?', she asked.

'You were curious about me? Why?', Saahil asked with one eyebrow raised.

'Woh... actually...', Shivaay stammered, Anika cuts in.

'Is this the proper way to greet someone Saahil?', she reprimands his way of starting the conversation being oblivious that these two have already met each other.

'Sorry, Anika didi! Hello, Mr. Shivaay Singh Oberoi. How are you? How's your business going?', he asked while faking a smile.

'Hi, Mr. Saahil Chaturvedi. I'm fine, thank you. My business is going good. How are your studies going?', Shivaay played Saahil's game.

Anika leaves them both in the living room to bring the gifts she bought for Saahil.

'So, you are SSO! We finally meet!', Saahil said while giving his right hand out for a hand shake.

'So, you are Saahil. "THE SAAHIL". I was expecting something else, but this is not bad either', he replied. When Shivaay was about to give his hand, Saahil withdraw his hand into adjusting his hair, almost similar to Shivaay's hair flick.

'He's not even half of my height but look at the way he's throwing attitude', Shivaay murmured.

'I can hear you! By the way, I seriously wanted to meet you to warn you! You've hurt and trouble my Anika a lot in the past without knowing that she's got a bahaadur boyfriend like me. Now that you know it already, don't you ever dare to hurt or trouble MY ANIKA ever again in the future!', this warning of Saahil made Shivaay say down with a jolt and by the time he finished warning him, Saahil's angry face was leaning close to Shivaay. Shivaay was undergoing a mixture of emotions at that particular moment. He was amazed, slightly afraid and astonished.

'Understood?', Saahil roared in front of his face.

Shivaay could only manage to nod his head. No one ever dared to treat him the way Saahil just did. Anika came in at the time and Saahil hopped on next to Shivaay on the sofa with a huge laughter and pretends to have a 'normal' conversation with Shivaay. Anika smiled at them.

'Arey wah! You both are good friends already! This is great!', she exclaimed.

Shivaay was about to say something when Saahil stepped on his foot and warned him through his eyes to play along. Hence, he just smiled to Anika.

'Ji, Anika didi! Bohathi gehri dhosti hogayi hai humari! [Yes, Anika didi! We developed a deep friendship!]', Saahil exclaimed sarcastically in a double meaning which only Shivaay understood.

She gave Saahil all the gifts and they had some conversation throughout which Shivaay was constantly feeling threaten by little Saahil's double meaning talks. When Saahil was about to leave, Shivaay sighed a huge relief, but Saahil did that 'my eyes are on you' action causing him to feel uneasy again.

'Thank God that Saahil doesn't live here!', he thought to himself once Saahil was out of his sight.

That evening, Anika's parents insisted her to take Shivaay around Mussorie as its his first time here. Shivaay was elated to go out with her but Anika was feeling slightly awkward.

'Should I bring Saahil along?', she expressed her thoughts.

'NO WAY!', Shivaay declined immediately. His actions drew all the attention in the room towards him.

'What I am trying to say is that Saahil has school tomorrow, if he comes with us, wouldn't he be tired in the morning?', he tried to cover up.

'Yes beta! You are rights! Anika, you goes with Shivaay huh!', Pinky urged.

Anika just simply complied and went out with Shivaay. She was showing him around the green land. She brought him to a temple where they prayed together. There, an old couple mistook them for a newly weds and blessed them. Even if it was awkward, they didn't deny it. From there, she took him to a famous restaurant in Mussorie. It wasn't a classy restaurant like the ones that Shivaay normally visits. Hence, he hesitated to eat there, but after a little bit of enforcement from our Anika, he went ahead.

'Trust me or not! This is one of the best decisions that I took in my life!', Shivaay exclaimed while relishing the mouthwateringly delicious food.

Anika smiled and replied,'You're welcome!'. She knows that Sadu Singh Oberoi can never say thank you properly.

It was getting dark and a little late when they left the restaurant. He thought that she was going to bring him back home. But little did he know that Anika is full of surprises. She brought him to her most favourite place in Mussorie. She told Shivaay that its her secret hideout.

It was a gazebo. A little hidden from the view of people. But from top, the whole of Mussorie could be seen.

Shivaay was amazed by the breathtaking view of it. He actually felt alive at the moment. He wasn't thinking about anything else like he always does. There was not even a bit of stress or work tension in him. He felt at peace and happy. The picturesque sunset, the unpolluted fresh air, and most importantly, the khidkithod girl standing next to him with her brightest smile he's ever seen. He wanted to freeze this moment if he could.

Just then, Shivaay felt misty water droplets on his face. He realized that it was raining and pulled Anika into the covered part of the gazebo. Anika looked at him surprisingly.

'Why? What happened?', she asked.

'It's raining! What else???!! Do you want to fall sick???', he exclaimed in concern.

'Nothing would happen! Bada maza aayega! Come!', saying this she pulled him into the rain. She was jumping like a child in the rain and Shivaay couldn't help it but to adore this new side that she just potrayed. She then held his hand and dragged him away from the Gazebo to the open space in front of it.

She was happily dancing like a small child. Jumping, stretching out her arms, and kicking the mud. She turned and called out to Shivaay who was leaning against on of the pillars of the Gazebo with his hands inside the pocket of his jeans. She was mesmerized upon finding her Sadu boss to look freaking hot all of the sudden and froze. Meanwhile, Shivaay was blown away to be looking at her. She looked at her watch and realized that they should be going home already and called him out to leave that place slightly reluctant.

Shivaay walked up towards her. Once he was near to her, she turned around and was about to walk away. But Shivaay has held her left hand with his right hand and pulled her towards him. She spinned and her face  crashed against his chest. The only barrier between them was their fully drenched clothes. With much anticipation due to their proximity, Anika looked up at his face. [The music below began]. They had an eyelock.

[Tadpaye Mujhe Teri Sabhi Baatein
Ek Baar Ay Deewani
Jhootha Hi Sahi Pyaar To Karrr]
They were still in the same pose.

[Main Bhoola Nahin Haseen Mulakaatein]
He twirled her while maintaining the eyelock.

[Bechain Karke Mujhko
Mujhse Yun Na
Pher Nazarrr]
He stopped twirling her and pulled her closer. His head was next to hers. They both closed their eyes being completely lost in each other's arms.

[Sardi Ki
Raaton Mein
Hum Soye Rahe Ek Chaadar Mein]
They fell into a dip while being lost in each other's eyes.

[Hum Dono

Tanha Ho
Na Koi Bhi Rahe Is Ghar Mein]
He stood up and pulled her close that her whole body was leaning against his.

[Zara Zara
Behekta Hain
Mehekta Hain
Aaj To Mera Tan Badan
Main Pyaasa Hoon
Mujhe Bhar Le Apni Baahon Mein]
They were slow dancing normally but the wetness brought it to another level.

The music has stopped and they were still in each other's embrace.
