Delhi, India

Next Morning

9:00 am

Veer's penthouse

It was not early morning but, everyone were sleeping as they returned late night after party

A black BMW stopped in front of the penthouse

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Thank you uncle, you should leave before anyone see you

Driver— Ji Kunwarani Sa (left)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Let's go inside, that girl didn't even come to airport, glad uncle was here due to some work (sighs)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(enters the penthouse)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

No one is here?! (looks around and saw a shadow)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(tilt her head) Who?

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(went back side of penthouse and saw a man standing there)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Umm excuse me?

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(without turning his face) Yes?

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Where is Maira? (softly)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

Bhabhi— (turn his face and got stunned)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Hmm?

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(in mind) "तुम्हें देखूं या सांस लूं, समझ नहीं आता... क़यामत ढा रही हो।" (I don't know whether I should look at you or breathe... you are wreaking havoc.)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Mister? (confused)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Kriti?! (came towards her)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Maira (smiles) I was looking for you

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(hugs her) I am sorry we came late yesterday, and I end up sleeping late

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

It's okay (roll her eyes)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

What are you doing here?

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

That— (look at Harshvardhan who is still looking at her)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(eyes darken while staring at her)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(looks at him and got panicked) Umm... Vardhan— you

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

आपका नाम? (to Akriti) (your name?)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Akriti—

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Akriti, we call her Kriti (cuts Akriti)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(confused)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

हर्षवर्धन (forward his hand for handshake) (Harshvardhan)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

That's such a royal name (smiles and shakes hand)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(looking at their hands) Um Kriti, you might be tired right? Let me show you your room

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Uh- yes I am so tired

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(about to leave) Umm...

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(raise his eyebrows)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

M-My hand (nervous)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(still holding it) They are soft

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(blush) Ahem leave me hand

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(realizes) Oh (embarrassed) s-sorry (leave her hand)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(leave behind Maira)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(in mind) I need to give her room exact in opposite side of penthouse, she must not get close to him in any way (left)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

Rabbit (murmurs)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(went towards his room).

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(in mind) Why all the rooms are occupied?! Damn it! Only the room exact opposite to him is available ((ヾ(≧皿≦ﾒ)ﾉ))

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

You are taking me from one room to other, if there is no room available I can go to hotel—

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

SHUT UP! How can I let my bestie stay in hotel?!

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

I have a room, opposite to Vardhan, but keep one thing in mind

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

What? (tilt her head)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Stay away from that guy! (serious)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

But why? (confused)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

He is just not a good guy! Now no more questions (drags her to the room opposite to Vardhan)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(getting dragged) (in mind) Love made her weird, crazy (sighs)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Here it is

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

It is smaller than your room in palace but—

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Shh!! You know I love cozy rooms! Palace doesn't give this coziness (pushes her out) Now go! I want to get fresh, I will come downstairs after sleeping for a while

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

That— (door closed on her face) (　:ﾟ皿ﾟ)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(left)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Huff! Finally, got my room.... I must arrange my clothes, but before that let me take bath

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(take a casual outfit and went inside bathroom)

15 minutes later

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(looking outside the window) Delhi is peaceful, least no rivalry (sighs)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Let's go downstairs, I can sleep at night anyway (went downstairs)

[As Veer ran away, his parents broke all connections with him, so they won't attend any event, Maira is orphan, she lost her parents in accident when she was 5 years old]

[The penthouse had 4 rooms, One is occupied by Vardhan, one by Veer and one by Maira, the last one was given to Akriti]

Three of them were sitting in living room, couple was bickering on something while Vardhan was lost in his thoughts

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(in mind) How can someone be so soft like fluff ball?!

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

I am telling you, let me exchange room with Akriti

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

It will take so long Maira, there is no need of that!

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

But—

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

What happened? (softly)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(looks at her) (in mind) Bunny~

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

I am saying that I can exchange room with yours, if not me, Veer you can do that!

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

But—

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Why?! Is there any problem?

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(staring at her continuously) (in mind) Nor straight neither curly, she has wavy hair

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

You are staying in opposite room of Vardhan's!

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(looks at Maira) (in mind) Bunny is staying in opposite room?!

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

So? (sighs)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Why must I change room?

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Because— (looks at Vardhan)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(raise his eyebrows) Because?

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Ahem, you both don't know each other, it will be good if she stays beside my room.... easy access you know (nervous)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

We can get to know each other (blank eyes)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(nods)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

What are you nodding to?! (smacks her head)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(pouts)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(in mind) Indeed a bunny

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

You will stay beside me!

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

NO—

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

(was noticing Vardhan staring at Akriti since start)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

(flinched)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(shocked)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

I- I mean, bhabhi we all are in same house, and your room is not that far away (shrugs)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

But—

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

Okay! End of discussion, Akriti will stay in same room she is staying in now

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(nods)

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(whispers) Idiot introduce me to Jiju

Maira Agarwal (Fl Bff)

Oh yes!!! Babe meet her, my bestie Akriti (smiles)

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

Hello Akriti

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

Hello Jiju (smiles) Call me Kriti like everyone please

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

(smiles and pat her head)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(jealous) (in mind) There was no need to touch her!!

Veer Sehgal (Ml Bff)

Maira, we need to check decoration for engagement (take Maira with him)

Only Akriti and Harshvardhan were left there

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(stands up and went towards Akriti)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(startled and unintentionally moved backwards)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(pat her head)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(tilt her head)

Harshvardhan Singh Rathore (Ml)

(said in low voice) Soft like bunny~ (left)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(blushing) (the one who heard him)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

What is he (embarrassed)

Akriti Chauhan (Fl)

(in mind) Since I came here, I found no one normal, either they are making me embarrassed or confused (sighs and goes to her room)

धूप में ठंडी छाँव सा एहसास था, ख़ामोश लफ़्ज़ों में कोई अनकहा अल्फ़ाज़ था। वो चली गई, मगर मैं वहीं अटका रहा, शायद पहली नज़र का ये पहला राज़ था। (“Like cool shade in the blazing sun, There were unsaid words in silent moments. She walked away, yet I remained frozen, Perhaps this was the first secret of first sight.”)
