"Argh what was that restaurant's name!" Krish groaned internally.

He looked at the text message that Shewta had sent him.

"Is this restaurant's name or the entire fucking address!" Krish felt urge to punch Shewta as he couldn't understand the restaurant's name Artusi Ristorante e Bar.

"I should call her ? Wait I can Google map this  ! Shewta would mock me if I call her to ask address" Krish contemplated.

Google map became a mad compass for Krish and even after an hour he couldn't reach the place,finally after asking a few locals he reached place drenched in sweat and his perfume evaporated long ago.

"You can't park your bike here it's car parking area of our customers" A security guard stopped Krish from parking his bike.

"I am customer of this restaurant" Krish spoke out with a sulken face.

"Stop lying Sahab, park somewhere else..we are tired of people who lie and park here to visit nearby mall" The security guard spoke out with furrowed eyebrows.

"Oye...look don't mess with me!" Krish shrieked grabbing the collar of security guard.

"He is with me" Shewta came running from inside.

Artusi  an Italian, fine-dining delight. Cream walls peppered with framed black and white stills, white tablecloths and vintage sconces–it has all the fixin’s of a romantic night for two.

Krish looked at the high restaurant for second.

"This looks hella expensive, hope she doesn't make me pay the bill" Krish wondered.
                           
                              ～～～

"Pay the bill sir!" The nurse handed the hospital bill to Mayank.

"What! 3 lakhs for what!" Mayank exclaimed the bill.

"For all the tests we did and it's the charges for the icu and extra facilities that the patient was given" the nurse spoke mechanically.

"This is absurd looting! I won't pay this extra bill,what facilities did you provide my father?" Mayank spoke with anger erupting.

"The extra vagant food your father stuffed in his mouth,the ac that your father run thinking  it is free to use and not to forget that he demanded television as well" The nurse spat back.

"Shut your mouth,mind your tongue" Mayank tore the bill.

"We are calling Police then" the doctor came in support of nurse.

"But how the hell it be 3 lakhs amount!" Mayank spoke out as green eyes grew went dull.

"We can't help you sir, pay the bill.Until then your father can't leave " The doctor quipped and left.

"These private hospitals are nothing but five star hotels,I told you Mayank" Kaashi spoke out.

"But Mausa ji,you know all facilities and good doctors are here,I was scared to lose my dad" Mayank reasoned.

"I understand,how much the bills are? I will help you son" Kaashi kept a hand on Mayank's shoulder with assuring smile.

"3 lakhs" Mayank replied with a sigh.

"I can arrange around 1 lakh" Kaashi spoke out.

"Thank you Mausa ji.Don't worry,I will arrange remaining amount" Mayank replied.
             
"Manky how will you arrange such a huge amount?" Dhriti spoke out as her father left for cafeteria.

"I will do something" Mayank spoke out.

                                ～～～
"Order  something!" Shewta hissed irritation laced her face.

"Fuck! I can't understand a word in this menu!" Krish groaned internally.

"Get me one...yeah the dish that adjacent customer has ordered" Krish spoke out.

"Pollo ai Funghi" Shewta placed her order.

"What kind of dish it is? Rich stupid habits" Krish muttered.

"Did you say something?" Shewta raised a brow.

"Huh...weather is so hot" Krish lied.

"And pigs are flying" Shewta giggled.

"What?" Krish spoke confused.

"Stop lying...it's written on your face that you are nervous.We are not dating so chill" Shewta chuckled showing off her dimples.

"So...what are your thoughts about me? You could marry any rich brat then why me?" Krish questioned.

"Because I don't want to leave my house and give bussiness in another hand" Shewta spoke out.

                                ～～～
"Now I am bored,this people have locked me up in this storeroom that stinks with medicine. I want to leave,Mayank ask then to discharge" Girish pleaded on a phone call.

"Yes,papa Don't worry,I will get you out..take care" Mayank spoke out.

"Arrange money or else you will face consequences" the same nurse spoke like a kidnapper snatching mobile from Girish.

"Don't do anything to my Papa,I am arranging money" Mayank spoke out worriedly.

Mayank quickly sell his motorbike for 40 thousand.

"Mayank ask Ankit to return money that he took in name of milni(a wedding ritual) and all valuables too" Dhriti suggested.

"Ankit's mobile is switched off,I called his friends to know about whereabouts.The whole family ran away from India.They fled to UK with all jewellery and money.They even sell off the car we gifted Ankit" Mayank wept helplessly.

"Hey Don't cry" Dhriti hugged him.

"Now what will I do?" Mayank spoke sniffing.

"Take this money" Dhriti spoke out fidgeting in her bank mobile app.

"What are you doing?" Mayank peeped into the screen.

"I am transferring money in your bank account and Don't ever disclose this to anyone" Dhriti spoke out making a money transfer of 1 lakh 60 thousand.

"No,I won't take it from you lizard.Tell me what was this amount for?" Mayank questioned.

"I was saving it for my marriage but it's useless so take the amount" Dhriti insisted.

"No,I won't" Mayank denied.

"My swear,take it" Dhriti emotionally blackmailed him.

                            ～～～
"Eww...what is it!" Krish scrunched his nose.

"Sir it's the pork that you ordered" the waiter replied.

"What pork ? I don't eat pork take  it away" Krish made a face ready to puke.

"Okay take this away and here is the bill amount" Shewta handed her platinum card to the waiter.

"I need to vomit" Krish spoke out feeling nauseous and ran towards restroom.

"Are you alright?" Shewta ran a hand on his back as he vomited.

"I am fine" Krish spoke out after drinking some water.

"When you couldn't understand the menu card, you could have spoken out straight" Shewta reasoned.

"That would have been embarrassing for me" Krish replied.

"Do I embarrass you?" Shewta spoke guiltily.

"No,actually you don't cause the embarrassment  it's the status difference that embarrasses me" Krish replied honestly.

"Are you a vegetarian?" Shewta questioned.

"No,I do eat chicken secretly. My mother doesn't allow non veg in home. In fact Butter Chicken is my favorite" Krish replied.

"Oh...butter chicken is my favorite too!Same pinch" Shewta spoke out.

Both Krish and Shewta chuckled in unison.

"Next time I will fix the meeting location" Krish spoke out.

"Okay as you say Krish and this black shirt looks extremely good on you" Shewta complimented sitting in her Mercedes.

"Oh..see you soon and thank you" Krish turned red and ran a hand in his hair trying to hide his blush.
