---------------------------

They both entered his apartment. His place was classy yet elegant. She looked at the large living area followed by the dining area and an open kitchen. The living room has grey and beige colored walls. A black L shared couch in the center with a 52 inch TV hung on the opposite wall. The most amazing was the wall length glass leading to the balcony behind the couch. She was mesmerized by the view outside. He lived on 30th floor so the city looked beautiful from this high. Dim yellow lights made the environment warm and cozy. There was a stair case towards her right, maybe leading to the rooms she thought. And not to forget a little bar cabinet in the corner with all kinds of expensive wines, she assumed. She was lost in admiring the apartment and sid was busy admiring her. He looked at her expressions, like how her eyes twinkled seeing the view from the balcony.

She looked so beautiful, dim light falling on her face and she being completely drenched made her clothes stick to her and hugging her curves perfectly. His eyes darkened and mouth got dry looking at her. He knew he needs to stop and look away so that he do not do anything stupid that will drive her more far from him. This thought brought him back to reality and he cleared his through breaking sana's trance. She looked at him and then down aware of the fact that he caught her starring at his house.

"Umm...Your place is beautiful." She said cleaning her throught and waved her hands towards the apartment.

"Thank you" sid said not knowing what to say now. they both stood silently looking here and there awkwardly.

"umm...we should change otherwise we'll catch cold." sid said breaking the silence after few minutes.

"I don't have any cloths." sana stated obvious.

"yeah I know. you can wear mine. mean while these will dry." sid offered and sana nodded.

"my room is upstairs. you can change there." sid said and they both proceeded towards his room. 

his room was huge. it was the master bedroom with a king sized bed in the middle. the room was beige and dark brown in color. there was again a wall sized window on one side of the room that leads to a beautiful balcony. there was a large chandelier hung in the middle of the room above the bed. dark brown colored couch was present at one end of the room. there was a large picture of him on the wall opposite to the glass door. the picture was surrounded by small frames containing a lot of pictures. some solo and some in groups. he looked at her admiring his room. he took out a t-shirt and lowers and gave it to her breaking her trance. sana looked at the cloths and made faces.

"it would never fit me. you have a giant body." sana commented looking at the clothes.

"you don't have an option right now." sid chuckled. "you change here, that's the bathroom. I'll change in the other room." sid said pointing towards the bathroom door and sana nodded. taking clothes for himself he moved out and sana went inside the bathroom.

a walking closet led to the huge bathroom. it has white marble tiles on walls. a round bathtub was at one corner of the bathroom. the washbasin was modern black and white. she changed into his clothes and looked herself in the large wall length mirror in the closet. the clothes were too lose. she shook her head as she don't have another option right now and went outside.

on the other hand sid changed his clothes and was about to go his room back but his stomach growled. he chuckled and thought sana would also be hungry so he decided to cook so he went to the kitchen.

sana came down to the living room as sid didn't came to the room. she looked here and there to find him when she heard some noises from the kitchen. she went there and looked at sid cooking. he was wearing just white shorts and his upper body was naked. he was having his back towards her so he didn't knew that sana was standing behind him. she looked at him. his huge biceps and toned body. he has beautiful black hair and he was indeed the most hot man she have ever seen. his muscles flex while cooking making him so deliciously hot and while cooking he looked more hot and cute. sid turned around when he felt someone's presence when he saw sana staring at him..no...no she was checking him out. sid smirked.

"like what you see." sid said smirking bringing her back from her la la land. she looked away biting her lips to hide the blush as she was caught red handed staring at him.

"please wear something." sana said still looking away.

"why?...you don't like my body." sid smirked mischievously. sana looked at him listening to him and saw his well toned chest and abs. oh my..he is so hot was the first thought in her mind. she again got lost looking at him. he looked at her again smirked. he walked towards her and she was looked at his face blankly. she was still in daze. he walked too close to her that his warm breath was falling on her face making her weak. she closed her eyes when he came near to her ear.

"I think I am not so safe standing like this here, so I am gonna go and wear something." sid said huskily in her ears and went from there smirking leaving a blushing sana behind. her cheeks were red like tomato and she was biting her lower lip clutching her eyes tightly closed to control her blush.

she opened her eyes when he was completely gone and sighed in relief. she shook her head to control herself.

"shitt..he caught me checking him out. you stupid sana, ho kya jata hai terko uske as pas. aur vo bhi pagal hai kya. jab pata hai mai hoon ghar par to kuch pehen ke rakhna chahiye na." she mumered to herself when her eyes caught a discarded t-shirt on the kitchen slab. she looked at it and saw sauce stain on it. "ohh..shayad abhi cook karte hue lag gaya hoga. but jo bhi hai hot to hai yaar yeh banda. ugghh..stop it. tu na pagal ho gayi hai sach me." her chain of thoughts were broken by his voice.

"sorry vo actually pasta banate time uspe sause gir gaye thi, isilie utari." sid said coming back to the kitchen and resumed with whatever he was cooking.

"its okay...so you know how to cook?" sana asked watching him cooking just like a professional.

"yep..almost all types of cousins." sid answered grinning like a little boy. sana smiled and turned around so that her back was towards the kitchen slab when she saw a piano near the bar area. she wondered how come she didn't saw it before.

"and I guess you know how to play as well." sana said pointing towards the piano. sid looked in the direction where she was pointing.

"yeah...little bit." sid chuckled.

"so mr. Richie rich is multi talented, right." sana commented looking at him. 

"well you are not wrong." sid said smirking and sana shook her head chuckling.

"I am cooking pasta. I thought you would also be hungry coz I am starving. good for you?" sid asked and sana nodded. he served pasta in two plates.

"it smell good." sana commented.

"it taste also good." sid said grinning.

"well that's my right to comment mr. chef." sana said pointing at they both moved to the dining table. he kept the plates and moved the chair for her to sit.

"well I hope you like it madam." sid said bowing slightly like a professional. sana laughed and took the seat. he himself sat beside her and gestured her to taste.

"umm...its amazing. I am impressed. you are going to get good recomendations for this." sana said taking another bite.

"well thank you so much for the appreciation but you see, its an exclusive service. only for special people." sid said pointing towards her. sana felt butterflies in her stomach listening to him but she choose to ignore it, not wanting to spoil the mood getting defensive.

they ate there meal in silence after that. this time silence was not awkward but was comforting. After finishing sana spoke breaking the silence.

"Haan to abhi mujhe mere answers milenge." Sana said sarcastically. Sid scratched his nape knowing now he can't delay more. Ab to sherni ka samna karna hi padega.

"Balcony mein bat karte hai." Sid suggested to which sana nodded.

"You go, I'll join you in 5." Sid said and sana nodded getting up. She kept her plate in the sink and went to the balcony. It was when sid noted how cute and petite she looked in his clothes. He kept the plates in dish washer and took out ice cream from the fridge thinking this might cool down the sherni. He chuckled at his own thoughts. He went to the balcony and saw her looking at the sky and lost in her thoughts.

"here" sid said giving her the ice cream bowl. sana took the bowl and smiled politely.

"I am still waiting for the answers." sana pointed out.

"yeah I know. come lets sit." sid said and they got settled on the couch.

"Okay....So I know anushka, your friend. Last time remember when you were at the office, we had a fight...ummm..No actually I yelled at you." Sid said and sana nodded in affirmation. "So when I cooled down....I regretted it. I knew you were tensed, still I shouted at you. All what you said the previous day of that incident, honestly I was hurt and pissed...So us din sab ek sath bahar aa gaya...Anyways coming back, that time I wanted to find you and apologize to you but you were gone, I became tensed. Maine anushka ka no. Nikalvaya tha to get to you. Since then we know each other. Today when you didn't go back home, she panicked and called me. So this is why I..ummmm...Know about you being missing." Sid said and looked down. He was feeling bad that he was lying but technically he didn't lie, he just told the half truth.

"Yeah now I remember, anu told me that you contacted her that time." Sana said.

"Can I ask the reason why you did what you did what you did today." Sid asked after few minutes of silence.

"I don't know what to tell you." Sana said in low voice playing with the spoon and melted ice cream.

"Shehnaaz...I...I..Am really sorry. Everything messed up between us because of me." Sid said.

"What...Are you kidding me. Teri wajah se kuch nhi hua. I have always been pathetic." Sana chuckled. Sid looked at her. She was looking straight lost in her thoughts. Her face was pale and shine was gone from her eyes. She looked to sad and tired. His heart ached looking her condition. He wanted to comfort her, make her laugh and forget every bad thing. So he sat near her and took her hands in his making her look at him in confusion.

"Listen, I know you are hurting. Things with you are not at all fine..." Sana interrupted him in between and withdraw her hands knowing she will break if she let this continue.

"What are you saying....I am fine... Nothing's wrong with me." She said looking away.

"Ohhh...Really then look at me and say this." Sid said. Sana looked at him to say and to finish this topic right there. But looking into his eyes she wasn't able to say anything but her vision blurred because of the unshed tears. Sid cupped her face in his big hands and kissed her eyes lids one by one and then her forehead. He again looked into her eyes.

"You don't have to lie to me. I can see it into your eyes. I can read them. You don't have to do this baby at least not alone. You said trust doesn't come easy to you, I understand but it's not impossible right. You have to try. you can't be scared of letting people in for you entire life. Sabko koi na koi chahiye hota hai sahare ke lie. Jab tum giro to vo tumhe uthne me madad kare. Hardships har kisi ki life mein hote hai bas difference hai ki kuch log unko par kar jate hai aur kuch haar man jate hai. Aur jab apka moral itna down ho jaye ki app har manne lago to kisi ka sahara lena chahiye. Main nahi keheta har koi accha hota hai but jab ap kisi se bat karo to apko bhi kuch accha feel hota hai na...Aisa feel hota hai ki this person will not use my wounds against me. I am not saying to tell me everything. I am just saying find your that person. Itna bhi mushkil nahi hota us ek insan ko dhundhna par agar koshish hi na karo to fir to kuch bhi possible nahi na." Sid tried to make her understand. Sana had tears flowing down her cheeks. Sid wiped them gently and kissed her forehead. He hugged her tightly knowing she is too vulnerable right now. He just wanted her to feel good. Sana sobbed in his arms not understanding what to say. She knew everything he said was true but hoe to overcome this fear.

After half an hour she stopped crying but they were still hugging like there lives depend on this hug. Like if the break the hug they'll fall apart. Sana was again and again recalling his words in her Mind. She remembered rita ji saying some similar things to her. She knew that he was a very good human being and she can trust him. But she was again questioning her thoughts. She knew she had to ask for help from some or other person if she wants to protect her dream. Was she being selfish? But she doesn't have any other option. Also she will return the money back and also do whatever he would want her to do. They broke the hug and sid wiped her face that has dry tears marks on it. He gave her water to come down. All the while sana kept looking at him deciding what to do. She finally decided to ask.

"Um....Vo..Actually..I..I.." sana fumbled and sid looked at her confused.

"You wanna say something?" He asked to which sana nodded.

"Okay so relax and say whatever it is. I promise I won't judge you or anything." Sid assured her. She took a deep breath and looked at him.

"Actually I need your help....Um..Vo meko kuch paise chahiye the...Vo...mai...Matlab.." sana again fumbled. Sid sighed and took her hands in his.

"How much?" He asked. Sana looked at him in jerk.

"50 thousand....I know it's a huge amount...You don't have to..its okay....i shouldn't have asked you...I'll arrange somehow." Sana said looking away. Meanwhile sid got up went to his study took the check book and came back sitting next to her. She realized that he had gone and thought she shouldn't have asked but when he came back she looked at him and he was tearing a check from the check book and gave it to her. She looked at it and gasped. It was a signed check of fifty thousand. She looked around him with wide eyes and open mouth and then again looked at the check as if checking if it's reality or not. Sid chuckled looking at her bringing her back to reality.
