In evening, Chinni joined Naina to have some fun time... they played a comedy movie as per their common interest and both enjoyed a lot... Chinni got the call from her friend who has come to collect the notebook from her... she left Naina alone assuring to come back soon... 

Getting tired and feeling alone, Naina keep watching the movie but soon drift into sleep while keeping herself half lying at couch only... in deep sleep, she turned to changed her side getting uncomfortable, when being less space she was about to fall but he saved her just in time to get herself hurt more...

He frowned instantly seeing her so careless but soon his face expression changed into a soft smile... she was half lying in his arms keeping her eyes still closed, sleeping peacefully... he looked at her serene, calm face glowing in dim light of room... feeling a sudden urge to hug her tightly, he pulled her softly towards him... unconsciously in deep sleep she too laid her head on his chest and wrapped her one arm around his neck as tight as she did... he got stunned on her reaction but never wanted this warmth to end...

They remained in same position for some time... he parted slightly seeing her face, still sleeping oblivious of her surrounding... he started to close distance between their lips but suddenly she opened her eyes finding herself caged in his strong arms... their faces were just an inch apart... 

Sameer stroked her cheek to make her shivered... her silky smooth skin and frenzy scent enthralled him... losing all his control, he leaned slowly and kiss on her lips gently... the kiss was soft and gentle showering his love...

Naina remain in his arms without moving as unable to get her senses for what all happening... few moments back she was watching movie and missing him badly feeling alone... and now he is right here in front of her, holding her in his arms, kissing her lovingly... seems like a dream... but a beautiful dream...

They both were lost in their own world when heard Chinni approaching towards their room, talking with her friend on phone loudly... she was not aware of Sameer to be back and inside room with Naina... before she enters, they both parted hurriedly getting back into senses...

Naina sits back on couch realized it was not her dream... he was actually kissing her whereas Sameer's eyes had a hint of mischiefs looking at her... she blushed matching to the shades of pink glowing twinkle lights...

To let her calm and stable, Sameer left Naina alone with Chinni giving some time without saying a word... he truly missed her terribly and came early but seeing her in his arms he was unable to keep a control on himself and kissed her... but a soothe feeling wrapped around him seeing her blushing face... at least she is not angry with him... 

Naina was still in daze and slapped mentally herself to behave like a fool considering him her dream... but today she is not regretting, in fact enjoyed being so close to him...

Chinni left after some time as she has school to join next day... soon servant entered and served dinner on table... she surprised to see so many dishes in good quantity... before she enquired much, Sameer entered in room to join her at dinner... a surprise for her as they never had dinner together earlier...

Servants left the room leaving them alone but Naina remain seated on couch looking down... he came close to the small round table filled with dishes and serve one plate... he forward his hand to feed her when she looked him surprisingly... he gesture towards her shoulder which still had bandage and she can't move it at all... she understood and eat silently with his hands... they complete their dinner in utter silence but enjoying each other company...

Though the planned assassination for Sameer had seriously injured Naina but it also gradually warmed up the relationship between Sameer and Naina accidentally...

Next few days went well... Sameer take good care of her... be it ensuring she should have proper diet or giving her medicine... before leaving even Bela informed him personally how to take care of her in this condition as felt some distance between them... leaving them alone to take care of each other might be the only solution she foresee...

Since her hand was wrapped with bandage and unable to move much Sameer ensure a servant should be around her all the time to support her in absence on Bela... he himself take care of her in managing small works by her own... he helped without her asking his help looks like he understood what she wants... he scolds her many times when seeing her carelessness towards her health which she accepted whole heartedly... feeling delighted that someone is so concerned and caring about her first time in her life... though they hardly spoke to each other but still an unsaid bonding develops between them...

Knowing her reluctance to visit hospital for regular check-up's Sameer arranged everything at home for her comfort... after two weeks, Doctor removed her bandage as her wound starting healing now and just asked her to be little more cautious... 

Sameer seeing her struggling for tying up the sling as instructed by Doctor to retain it for few more days went close to her and hold her wrist to stop... quietly he adjusted the arm rest looking directly into her eyes... seeing him so close her face tinted with a light blush realizing how now days he always remain close to her whenever she is in some need...

After few days more resting at home, Naina gets bored as he didn't allow her even to step out from room but she doesn't have courage to argue on this... the way he was taking care of her keeping all his busy schedules and routine aside, she was touched... for Sameer, he was still worried for her safety but doesn't want to scare her and don't want to do any compromise in her recovery...

Next morning seeing him going out she asked, "can I join back office with you now... I am getting bored at home..." he left without replying her.... 

She remains seated confused thinking, "bata toh dete... jaaun ki nahin... pata nahin chalta kab mute button on kar lete hai... inki khamoshi ki jubaan mujhe samajh hi nahin aati kabhi... Mr Silent Maheshwari..." she keeps blabbering confused on his reaction who hardly spoke to her or replied...

To break her thoughts, Pandit came informing her, "Ms Agarwal, today we are going out for a conference so you stay back at home... you can join back office from tomorrow with us only..."

Pandit smiled seeing her confused face and patted on her head, "your khadus boss has instructed this... so just relax and take care of yourself..." they both laughed seeing each other and soon he left leaving her alone to take rest... Pandit always support her and speak gently...

Next day early morning, getting excited for going office, she gets up as her usual time... though it take more time for her to complete her morning chores as her hand is still not in of proper movement... she somehow managed all alone and quickly went out to lit diya in mandir... after a long time she was allowed to go out from room... she wants to thanks her Kanhaji for this sudden change in their relationship...

Sameer awaked sensing her steps going far... he sits back getting confused, "office ki permission di hai par isey yeh morning walk par roj kyun jaana hota hai... she is a real idiot and totally careless... bilkul bachchon ki tarah daantana padta hai har baat ke liye..." he huffed in anger and soon too gets ready for office...

Naina came back seeing all settling on breakfast table... she greets all and quietly sits beside Sameer when Vishakha asked, "how are you Naina beta... I heard you was not well... sorry I didn't get time to come personally to see you... hope you don't mind..." she said with her sugarcoated voice...

Naina replied softly, "no, it's okay... I am fine... thanks for your concern..." when Sameer said sarcastically, "ya... I know ... you were very much busy in meeting with President to discuss on country's political matters... aapke bina unka chalta hi nahin na..."

Karthik seeing conversation getting heated turned to Naina, "how are you feeling now..."

Naina smiled a bit and replied softly, "fine..." knowing Sameer's distant relation with Karthik she avoids talking to him...

Rest of the breakfast went in silent... but an awkward silent...

Finishing breakfast, Naina went to her room to get ready for office whereas Sameer was waiting for her staying at living room discussing something on phone.... he planned to take her along with him in car as she is still in recovery stage...

Karthick came to him sitting in front of him saying softly, "Sameer, I know you don't like any of us, but we are family... at least for name sake you can try not to be rude in front of others..."

Sameer asked sarcastically, "so, today my elder brother is here to give me lecture on family values, morality... is it so...." his gaze was still focused on his mobile in hand avoiding him...

Karthik said in low tone, "look Sameer... it's not like that... we are of same age, I am just two years elder to you... can't we be friends... and see, now Naina is also here... what will she think of us seeing all this... how will you take care of her all alone when you yourself..."

Sameer gnashed his teeth in anger and shouts interrupting him, "from how come all of a sudden you start thinking about me as your family... is it so just because of her..." his tone changed in a threatening way, "look Karthik... I never interfere in your personal matters, so that's what I expect from you also... and I am warning you... stay away from her, don't ever cross your limits..."

Karthik tried to convince him, "but Sameer, try to understand... how will you alone handle in this condition... after all..."

Sameer's eyes suddenly became sharp interrupt him in between shouts back, "I know my disabilities and you don't need to remind me... but one thing is sure that I can take care of my wife alone... don't interfere in my personal life ever... she doesn't need you at all... until I am alive... even not after me..." he said giving a deathly glare in a warning tone to him...

Saying this he rolled out his wheelchair going out in anger... Pandit rushed to his side glaring Karthik who was standing there seeing them leaving... soon they both left in their car to office forgetting about Naina...

Naina came out seeing him already left... she feel dejected thinking, "I thought hamare beach sab theek ho raha hai.. but I was fool, he might be feeling pity on me... but now since I am fine, he again ignored me and left alone... galti meri hi hai, mujhe sapne nahin dekhne chahiye the... kuchh din achchhe se baat karne ka matlab yeh nahin ki voh mujhe apna lenge... unke liye mein aaj bhi vahi hun... jisase voh nafarat karte hai aur hamesha karenge... shayad hamare beech kabhi kuchh theek nahin hoga..." she felt hurt but compose herself to remain strong to phase this tough phase of her life... all alone...

Sameer was all lost in his thoughts and miseries... the only worst thing which he hated most is someone making him realize his only weakness... since the day he met with accident, he manage up with it and proved himself beyond limits.... within few years, he bring his company in number one position in International market... he worked hard day and night to come over of all his weaknesses... he never expect anyone to show pity on him and it gives more pain when people around you tried to make you realize your weakness again and again....

Naina walked towards the bus stop when a car stops, blocking her way... realizing its Karthik, she moved ahead but he gets down and insist her to come along with him as she is still not fully recovered...

She denied making excuses but Karthik said finally, "see Naina, you are family... and right now not in good condition to ride in bus... if you didn't come, than I had left with no choice to inform Mummy that how badly Sameer is behaving with you... I don't want to interfere but left with no other way..."

She got shocked that how did he know about their relation... keeping himself calm he said, "look... aisa nahin hai ki Sameer is bad but usually he took time to accept any changes in his life... just give him some more time... I am sure you two will be the best couple... but right now I don't leave you also alone in this condition... so please come and sit... anyways we both are going to same place..." he insists politely.....

She reluctantly sit in his car and they drove to office... sitting in car he apologized, "sorry mujhe tumhein yun dhamki nahin deni chahiye thi... but you can count on me any time... just trust me..." he said with a genuine smile...

Naina replied looking other side, "if you are genuinely sorry than promise ki aaj ke baad aap kabhi dobara mujhe yun force nahin karenge... I know you were just concerned for me and I am thankful for this... but let me handle my relation by my own... I don't want anyone else to interfere in it... hope you don't mind..." seeing her so reluctant Karthik agreed to her and assured her that he will not force her for anything in future...

Sameer realized they left Naina alone to come office by her own, even when her hand is still not in perfect condition... he reprimand himself and asked Pandit to take a U turn... they were just a lane behind their mansion, when saw Naina was sitting in Karthik's car and left with him...

Sameer's heart ached, filled with envious seeing her going with Karthik... he clenched his jaws in anger, muttered slowly, "disgusting..." his knuckles turned pale and had gritted his teeth just to remain calm himself... after having a heated argument with Karthik and warning him to stay away from Naina, he can't see her going with him in his car... it fueled his anger more on her...

Pandit asked in a low tone, "should I call her..." he looked at Pandit with piercing look, "turn back to office... fast..." he roared getting frustrated... Pandit understood his changed expression but didn't say anything and drive back...

Reaching office, Naina gets down and rushed inside the building... the moment she entered to her floor, she saw Pandit standing near her desk... he showed a pile of files lying there, "lots of work pending for you to complete... please start fast and complete all with in deadlines..." saying this he left feeling pity for her... he knows she has not recovered completely but can't help... he has to obey him... he even tried to make him understand but in his anger he was not listening anything...

She sits back on her seat and starts completing her pending work... her hand has started pain but seeing no other option she continue to complete her work... seeing time she prepare coffee for him and went towards his cabin... she knocked before entering... placing the mug on his table she stood there for his instructions...

Sameer didn't raise his head and his eyes were focused on his laptop.... he didn't glance her at all... after waiting for few minutes, she left getting disappointed...

The moment she came on her seat, her intercom buzzed... she picked up expecting him but heard a female voice, "Hi, I am from HR department... can you come here... we need to discuss..."

The call got disconnected instantly... she realized it must be for something urgent to discuss... she took the elevator and went down on other floor... she was familiar to HR department as she has completed her joining formalities few weeks back only...

She knocked at the door and saw a girl sitting on the other side of the table in front of her, almost same as of her age... she introduced, "Hi, I am Preeti Mehta... take a seat..."

Naina took a seat in front of her, "thanks... any reason for calling me.." she realize she has not seen her earlier...

Preeti giving a hard look said, "haven't you read the company policies at the time of joining... you were absent from more than two weeks and not even informed to HR..."

Naina was not aware of this policy and was busy in her own personal issues... she even didn't think much about this to inform in office... even from last few days their increasing closeness makes her forget that she is just an employee not CEO's wife for others...

Naina replied apologetic, "I am sorry... actually I met with an accident and was hospitalized... I informed to Mr Maheshwari but forget to inform in HR... I will take care of this in future..."

Preeti forward her a form, "it's okay but better ensure next time... take this form and get this signed by your boss... means our CEO and submit to me today itself... otherwise your salary will be deducted for all these days as you are in probation period..."

Naina was badly in need of money as till now she was left with very less amount saved from her previous job salary... she took the form and replied softly, "no problems... I will get this signed and submit you today... and sorry once again for this..." Preeti nodded with a soft smile, seeing her so polite and accepting her mistake rather than arguing like others...

Naina left hurriedly and after filling the form went to his cabin to get signed... she knocked twice but didn't get any response...

She opened the door slightly and saw him busy in some call.... she looked at him asking for permission to went inside on which he nodded slightly... she went and stood there waiting for him to complete his call....

She placed the form in front of him after he finishes off from his call... back to his usual expression, he glares her... she replied nervously, "I have to submit this leave form to HR otherwise my salary will be deducted.. please sign it as your approval for my medical leave..."

Sameer's expression turned cold as he was staring at her... he took the paper in his hand and rolled over to her side... coming closer he sits in front of her with a piercing glare, "are you really in so much need of money that you can do anything for it.... are you really bothered about this small amount....?" he asked looking at the paper in his hand giving her a disgusting look...

Naina got surprised on his rough tone... she didn't get meaning of his sarcastic words and asked confusingly, "huh?... ya... I mean... yes, I need my salary... what's wrong in this?"

"No... I am sure you must have so many other ways also to earn money... then why will you bother for this small bundle of money... or this is just to make others fool around you..." his cold voice was filled with mockery and humiliation...

Naina widened her eyes in shock getting the meaning of such unpleasant words and shouts, "how can you think so low about me... I know aap ne hamesha se mujhe galat hi samjha hai aur aapki najaron mein meri koi respect nahin... but you have no rights to cross your limits Mr Maheshwari..." her eyes got wet but she restrained herself from breaking down in front of such a ruthless person...

The previously gentle Sameer had now averted to his arrogant itself... no wonder he suddenly changed his temperament... even the last hope left in her heart vanished with his bitter words today...

Sameer raised his tone and a sardonic smile appeared on his lips, "really... you really think I am a fool or dumb who can't see your real face..." he stops saying further seeing Pandit entering his cabin without knocking again...

Pandit stopped at the door itself feeling the heat inside the cabin... Sameer signed on paper and throw it on her, "get lost..." he shouts to vent out the anger in his heart seeing her going with Karthik...

Naina stood there speechless... composing herself she picked up the paper and left from his cabin wiping her tears... she was totally clueless behind the reason for his sudden changed temperament but now not ready to accept it at all... she knew she was not wrong in asking permission for medical leave... what she doesn't know was the actual reason for his changed and rude behavior...

Pandit looked at them in confusion... he took a step towards him when Sameer suddenly turned himself showing his back and said, "leave me alone..." Pandit also left without saying a word...

Naina came back to her seat wiping her tears... she gulped cold glass of water to keep herself calm but his words keep ringing in her ears making her tears dwelled continuously...

Her trance broke with a soft touch on her shoulder... she turned to see Preeti was standing there with a worried expression, "hey... are you fine?"

Naina wiped her tears with a fake smile on her face, "ya.. nothing... in fact I was coming to you only..." she handed her the signed document...

Preeti took it and smiled back, "see... don't take it wrong... I feel that I was quite rude with you, but you know in HR we have to deal with all kind of people... so... but you seem different from others..."

Naina smiled weakly when Preeti offered her to join for lunch, "actually I also joined recently and don't have any friends here... so, if you don't mind, we can have lunch together... let's try to be friends..."

Naina was in no mood to eat but knowing her condition, she accepted her invite... at present she was desperately looking for some change... preferably to avoid him.... she wants to get rid of her tensions and his rough attitude for some time... she chose to stay with Preeti as she seems a simple and cute girl... they both left for canteen at other floor to spend some time together...
