[Annika - A, Shivaay - S, Gauri - G]

A few days later at Oberoi Industries

S: I think this is a good strategy to increase customers

A: Shivaay, do you want to go out?

S: Umm why?

A: Because I'm really hungry. Is that a good enough reason?

S: Okay, let's go. But I'll pay and you won't create any scene, deal?

A: Fine you can pay, let's go, please. Rats are doing dance competition in my stomach

S: You're mad you know

They reached the parking lot and Shivaay headed towards his car

S: What about your champa?

A: Ooooh you remember the name. I'm impressed.

He gave her an annoyed look

A: Chanda needed it today, I came here in a cab

S: Get in then

They were waiting at a traffic signal when a little boy knocked on Shivaay's window. He was selling heart-shaped balloons

Boy: Bhaiyya bhaiyya please buy one balloon for your girlfriend

Annika suppressed a giggle

S: We don't want any balloons

Boy: Bhaiyya please buy one, she will be very happy.

S: Here, take this money and eat something and you can keep the balloon.

Boy: Thank you Bhaiyya, you and your girlfriend look like hero heroine

S: She's not my girlfriend

But the boy had already left.

S: Stop giggling

A: Why the hero doesn't like it when I laugh?

Shivaay took her to one of his favorite restaurants.

S: My brothers and I love coming here.

A: You can see the ocean from the rooftop

S: Yeah

They got a nice table and placed their order

A: You got any plans for the weekend?

S: I have a meeting with some Japanese clients tomorrow

A: Seriously Shivaay, how much do you work! Do you spare any time for yourself?

S: I do, and I spend that with my brothers and my daadi.

A: What about your 'Me time'? What do you like to do for yourself? What are your hobbies, besides cooking?

S: I don't have any hobbies

A: Then find something that you like. Your brothers have a life besides their work and family. You should too. Go out with your friends, travel for pleasure, read, I don't know, whatever gives you pleasure.
