A huge building is shown, inside, there is a commotion. People are running here and there with files, a bunch of people are crowded near a computer, and some are taking calls.

A translucent glass door with letters ‘Ninad Chauvan’ opens and comes out a man who looked in his early 50s, wearing a black suite over sky blue shirt and a navy blue tie, he seems to be busy on call and moves straight towards the elevator, accompanied by him is a man holding some files, stress evident on his face.

Both sit inside car and the driver drives off stopping the car outside Joshi Manor.

A house help takes him to the study of Kamal Joshi, who welcomes them with a smile??

“Mr. Joshi, I guess you are well aware that our company’s stocks are decreasing drastically since the morning.” He said sitting on the chair in front of Kamal’s desk

“I’m sorry Mr. Chauvan I really don’t have any idea about what is going on.”

“I was expecting you would confess your role and motto for doing this. Guess I was wrong.”

“Have I become that predictable?”

“I have no time for your jokes, Joshi”

“I don’t joke, I do business.”

“Chauvan Enterprises is a result of my blood sweat and tears, I won’t let you takeover my company this easily.”

“I wasn’t actually planning a takeover, but something else” he said with a smirk.

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

A young couple is shown enjoying along the riverside.

“Happy 10th Anniversary Virat” the girl said taking out a box from her bag. He opened the box; it was a blue colored, Armani watch.

“Wear it whenever you’ll miss me” she said smiling.

He bought her close and kissed on her forehead, then taking out a huge box gave to her whispering “Happy 10th anniversary Pakhi” in her ears. She opened the box with a smile and inside it was a beautiful pink colored lehenga set.

He took out the duppatta and made her wear it; he then took out something from his jacket’s pocket and bends down on his knee

“Miss Patralekha Negi, are you willing to become Mrs. Virat Chauvan??”

“Virat” She said in astonishment.

“Please let me…. I may not be the most responsible person, but I will fulfill every responsibility towards you with full dedication. I may be a little immature, but I love you with every bit of my heart and I want you to complete me, because my other half belongs to you. Pakhi, will you marry me?”

Pakhi was standing shocked, tears formed in her eyes and she felt like her voice is stuck inside her throat. She happily nodded and he made her wear the ring on her finger.

“I want you to wear this lehenga on our reception day” he said playfully and she shyly nodded

He hugged her, and they found their long lost peace in each other’s embrace, forgetting the whole world.

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

“We will make a press release tomorrow and then will proceed further with this deal.” Kamal said shaking hands with Ninad, who left behind all the anger he came with and walked away with a satisfied look on his face.

Sayi was working on her laptop in her room, when a house help asked her to go to her dad as he wanted to see her.

“Tell him I won’t come”

“I’ve known you this well that I can now predict your every move”

“What brings Mr. Joshi to my room. I’m sure it must be something important that made you walk till here”

“It indeed is. Firstly, cancel the tickets you booked to go back, and drop out from that stupid online class of yours. Secondly, I’ll send the designer, select some clothes for your engagement after 2 days, followed by your wedding after 10 days, and I’ve postponed your crown ceremony to your wedding day.”

“You did what??”

“I guess you heard it in the first go itself.”

“Those tickets, I booked them with the money I earned by working part-times. You cannot stop me from going back and chase my dreams. And about this marriage, I’d rather die than marrying a stranger. It is about my life and I won’t let you play with it for your selfish reasons. I will escape from this hell anyhow”

“If you think escaping from here is that easy, then try me. You are trapped here, even a leaf asks for my permission before entering the premises of this manor” he literally screamed.

“You finally showed the worst of you huh…you stooped this low and is ready to destroy 2 lives just because of you stubbornness to stop me from going??”

Kamal Joshi without speaking a word, picks up her phone, laptop and other gadgets and leave from the room locking it and asking the guards to increase the security around her room to make sure that she doesn’t run away and nobody from outside meets her.
