"Shivaay" called ranveer while shivaay paused to look at him.

"we would go by my car. not yours. your car may be watched" said ranveer while shivaay nodded leaving his car behind

************************************

"Thats payal right ?" asked ranveer while driving pointing towards a lady in a black fiat.

"Yes thats her. You traced her car location with just her address?" asked a bewildered shivaay,

while ranveer sniggered saying "police mind"

"See there, she is entering a drive in restaurant" pointed ranveer.

"She has parked there, lets follow her..." said ranveer while shivaay paused him saying "NO"

"i have a better plan " said shivaay.

************************************

Payal lowered her car window and stared at the waiter.

"Mam, your order please?"

"One spanish omlette, one grilled cheese sandwich and one chocolate fondant. Make it quick " told payal

The waiter nodded and left while payal's mobile started to ring.

"Haan, yes. I escaped. I don't know who the guy was. I just used the halothane bomb and left the place, after locking the room.He should have fainted in that room itself. Its good thing that you had already warned me to remove the CCTV footage... warna ....just a second..i'll talk to you later"

"What?" asked payal irritably , looking at the waiter.

"madam, this is a new refresher which we have added in menu. Since you are a regular and a valued customer, price for this on the diner day inn" said the waiter handing over a litchi refresher juice.

Suddenly suspicious over the offer, Payal started to decline the juice. The last time she was given a special offer, she was almost caught.

"Is this really your plan? spiking payal's drink? Really?" sighed ranveer while shivaay smirked.

"You... You... how dare you? How can you ruin my specially designed louis vutton skirt? I am not gonna spare you..." screamed payal looking at the waiter who was looking sorry , to have spilt the juice on payal's costume.

"Now.. this is my plan" said shivaay, flicking his hair on seeing payal drag the waiter towards the diner manager.

"Huh? really? but why?" asked a shocked ranveer.

"Hurry up , i'll explain when we are at action" said shivaay while ranveer followed

Shivaay ran towards payal's car and took out her mobile phone through the window which was open. 

"damn.. its password protected" yelled shivaay.

"what an ajeeb app lock... it seems like a 5 digit alphabetic password... daksh try kar" said ranveer.

"nope.. not working for daksh" sighed shivaay 

"payal?" 

"nope still not working... if we get this time wrong .. app says it would send a warning mail to her mail id" said a rather frustrated shivaay.

"We have to do something... " said ranveer

While suddenly shivaay's face lit up. "Yup.. i opened the mobile" said shivaay victoriously.

"huh.. how?" asked a confused ranveer while shivaay pointed " look there"

"Hello Kitty"    locket and  a car hanging was dangling in the car .

"K-I-T-T-Y ? seriously?" chuckled ranveer while shivaay smirked.

"Shivaay... you stay here while i go and take a quick peek on what that dufus is doing..." said ranveer while ignoring shivaay's protests.

************************************

Payal suddenly felt someone following her after she started walking back from manager's room. She felt more conscious of her actions. A guy with white shirt was walking behind her.

 She suddenly took a detour,passed near a white sedan and went missing. 

While the guy suddenly looked confused on not able to find her , he suddenly felt dizzy as he felt someone close his nose from behind using anesthesia.

As soon as the guy fainted, she tossed him aside under a pile of leaf near by after taking out his purse.

Smirking , she went towards her car and left the restaurant.

Payal took out her mobile and started dialing.

" hahaha... you would not believe  what just happened. That stupid annika has sent a guy behind me i think. I saw a white sedan following me for long... i had a feeling i was being watched. Right when i was about to get out of the restaurant, i saw an idiot following me. Guess what, i jammed his sedan and made him unconscious. haha don't worry Tia... he is definitely not gonna wake up or can follow me. Yes, i added sugar to his car petrol tank, no way in hell its gonna work now. Aww.. so sweet of you tia... Am really glad to have you as my sister in law" chuckled payal

"That b*tch" swore ranveer while shivaay signalled him to listen to the call.

Confused? How did shivaay and ranveer listen to payal's phone call? Wasn't ranveer the guy , payal had made unconscious?

*sometime before*

When Ranveer was about to follow Payal, Shivaay dragged him by his collar and hid behind the restaurant side. 

"i swear Shivaay, the way this idiot behaves, am more and more sure that they are 100% criminals. Just look at how wily she is. Oh my god look" panicked ranveer on seeing payal jam his car , by adding sugar to the petrol tank.

  There he saw a random guy getting beaten up by the crazy payal  

It took every ounce of shivaay's strength to keep a roaring and a fight ing ranveer caged in his arms. The righteous policeman in him awoke the very moment he saw a random guy getting attacked by this wily woman.

After realizing his composure, ranveer calmed down and asked " How did you know i would be in trouble if i followed her?"

"simple...  a businessman's brain. A good businessman never makes the same mistake again. I realised she is uber conscious that she is being watched after that CCTV incident. So i felt , it was a wise decision, not to follow her" said Shivaay.

"And hogaya tumara kaam?" asked ranveer.

"Oh ya look" said shivaay showing ranveer a mobile.

"I have installed a clone firmware in her mobile. whatever she does, whomever she speaks, messages. anything and everything would be reflected in this clone mobile phone." said shivaay

"Wow.. that means we can see her messages to others,but cannot reply . we can hear her speak to others but we cannot talk... nice idea shivaay" said ranveer while patting shivaay.

There stood khanna at a 10 ft distance waiting for the two with a black Mercedes. "I took the liberty of calling khanna for a ride, as soon as i saw, payal ruin my car" sighed ranveer.

On entering the car,

"huh Shivaay? The laddoos look yummy. From where did you buy these?" said ranveer about to have laddoo while shivaay snatched it from his hand and swallowed it.

"Hey thats mean" sighed ranveer

"These are home made. and personally made for me. for my consumption alone. sorry ranveer, i dont wish to part with my laddoos" fumbled shivaay

"you don't wish to part with the laddoos or you don't wish to part with Ms.Annika made laddoos" mocked ranveer

"Shivaay...i know you from childhood. Atleast for old times sake... can you tell me the truth? Do you or don't you love annika?"

"I don't know..." said shivaay while ranveer complained " what you don't know?"

"ok... i'll ask you something. Do you love water?" asked shivaay while ranveer looked baffled 

"What ? i have never thought like that..."

"but... can you live without it...?"

"NO"

"exactly my point... love not love... i really don't know. But all i can say is... Annika is a necessity in my life without which my life wouldn't be complete. She isn't a choice to be liked or unliked. She is a necessity... but...." said shivaay while deeply sighing
