Shivaay and Anika were in the car. Shivaay was looking at her every now and then. She was still having a little fear lingering in her. Shivaay could totally understand how she's feeling right now. He took his left-hand from the steering and placed it on her right hand which was on her lap. She turned to look at him.

'Don't worry! I'm here!', he said with a faint smile.

She nodded in agreement. In a while, they arrived at Shivaay's house. He helped her with her luggages. He brought her to another bedroom there and placed all her luggages there.

'This will be your room. If you don't like it, you can pick any other room here. Feel as if it's your own home. My room will be the first on the left side. You can come there if you need anything. Oh yeah, the kitchen is downstairs right across the dining hall. I'll show you a tour of the house tomorrow. If you need anything just come ahead. Okay?', he explained to her.

She simply nodded her head with a smile. Shivaay went off to his room leaving her to settle herself. Anika take a look around her room. It was huge and pretty. The decorations were very much contemporary and it had a walk-in wardrobe.

'Is Sadu Singh Oberoi made or what? Who would not like such a khidkithod room!! I love it!!! Totally love it!!! This is exceptionally khidkithod. Oh bete ki! It even has a walk-in wardrobe. I should ask Papa to renovate my room like this. Wah!!! There's a bathtub!!! This feels like hotel. I think I'm going to go mad!!!', she exclaimed being excited about her new room.

She then took a warm shower and was about to hit the bed when she remembered something.

'I didn't even thank him for today! What kind of person are you Anika? It's a different issue that he didn't thank you properly when you saved his life. But are you Sadu like him? Go ahead and say Thank you to him', she talked to herself and proceed to Shivaay's room.

Once she was there, she knocked the door, but since it was unlocked, the door opened itself by the force of her knock. She peeped in. There was no one there. She went in and looked around. She then heard water splashing sound and understood that he's in the shower. Anika wanted to thank him tonight itself, hence she decided to wait till he comes out of the shower. She sat on the couch nearby. She waited, and waited and waited. But Shivaay was just not coming out. Soon after, she dozed off while waiting for him on the couch.

Shivaay who just stepped out of the shower in bathrobe didn't notice the tiny soul sleeping there on his couch. He changed his clothes and hit the bed right after. That morning, Anika's sleep was disturbed by Shivaay's alarm clock.

'Gauri! Turn it off, na!!!', she shouted in her sleep. Then, she remembered something. Shivaay on the other hand, just turned off the alarm clock. He was too sleepy to have heard Anika's scream a while ago. But, Anika got up with a jerk. She panicked as to how to explain herself to Shivaay on how she landed up here. Shivaay meanwhile stretched up himself, yawn and lazily got up.

'Phail gaya raita! What should I do now?', she thought to herself. 'He's still half-asleep, I should stealthily run away. This is your chance Anika. Bhag Anika bhag', she thought to herself, got up and slowly tip-toed towards the door. Shivaay senses someones present in the room and he immediately turned towards the way Anika was walking. She was oblivious of the pair of shocked blue eyes set on her.

'Fhat the wuck!!!', he screamed out being a little frighten of course at the sudden appearance of a girl in his room early in the morning.

Anika turns facing him and smiled awkwardly. She was not understanding how to react or what to say.

'Good morning Shivaay Sir!', she exclaimed while waving her hand.

'Seriously Anika? What the hell are you doing here this early in the morning, huh??? Wait a minute, don't tell me you were here from last night??? Did you sleep here by any chance???', he began bombarding her with everything that run across his mind at the time.

Anika shuts her eyes tight and lowers her head in embarrassment and fear. 'Woh... actually...', she paused and looked up at Shivaay who's now fully awake and sitting on his bed.

'Go ahead, I'm listening', he said while crossing his arms on his chest.

'Actually I came here to say Thank you to you last night but you weren't here. You were showering. And my mind told me that I shouldn't behave like a Sadu the way you did and say Thank you right away. So I waited here on the couch and didn't realize when sleep took over me. So, I'm sorry and thank you!', she spoke swiftly like she always does and ran away from his room.

'Anika wait! I got more questions...', she ran away without listening to him.

'She's such a weird girl but cute. Wait what??? Why am I calling her cute again??? Shivaay... go and get ready. There's a lot of work load ahead', he diverted himself from thinking about Anika.

Anika on the other hand stopped only when she reached her room. She quickly closes and locks the door. She leans on the door while panting and catching her breath.

'How on earth did you fell asleep there??!!! You're dead today!!! Sadu Singh Oberoi wouldn't let it go just like that. Phail gaya raita!', she mentally smacked herself for being that careless.

Nevertheless, she went to get refreshed. While under the shower, she remembered the moments she had with him last night. Their tight hug, the way he consoled her and the way he cared for her. She smiled. And then, his 'just got up' face flashes in her mind. His messy hair, sleepy deep blue-green eyes, and most importantly the super sexy husky voice of his.

'God! How could he look so perfect even when he just got up?  He looked way too awesome and hotter than he usually looks. And this is just day one here. How am I going to survive the upcoming week here?', she thought to herself.
