[Annika - A, Shivaay - S, Rudra - Ru, Gauri - G, Bhavya - B]

Monsoon had arrived and it had been raining constantly for the last 2 days, which meant Annika's champa had been parked in the society for two days.

She reached Oberoi Industries by cab for her quarterly review with Shivaay. They were going through the numbers when Mishra knocked.

Mishra: Sir, the weather department has predicted a storm, several regions are going to be waterlogged.

S: Okay, send everyone home while the roads are still open.

Annika passed on the information to Neil so her employees could also go home safely.

S: Annika, we can discuss the rest over a call, you should also head home

A: When will you leave?

S: Once everyone leaves and Mishra updates me

A: Okay, I'll call you soon

About half an hour later, Shivaay headed downstairs. He saw Annika sitting at the reception.

S: Annika, why are you still here?

A: Waiting for my cab. Some of the roads on my way home are completely blocked, most drivers canceled the ride

S: What about Chanda?

A: She's on leave today, so already at home.

S: Come over to my place then. Leave once the roads clear up

A: No, no, it's alright, my cab's 15 minutes away.

S: Annika, there's no guarantee your cab will come, and even if one comes, he might not be able to drop you at your doorstep because of the water. You can stay at my place.

A: Are you sure? I don't want to be a burden

S: no one's going to have any problem.

He pulled her along to the parking lot and they drove to the Oberoi mansion.

When they entered, the youngsters were gathered in the living room. Gauri stood in the middle acting something out and Bhavya was trying to guess

A: Golmaal

Ru: Annika didi, why did you answer? They were just about to lose

B: Annika is in our team now, so we won this round

Ru: No, this is unfair

A: Guys don't fight. How about a do-over?

Om: okay then Shivaay come over here

S: why is this a girls vs boys situation? Mix it up

G: yes, we'll pick chits to decide a team

Gauri made 6 chits, three read team A and the other three read team B. One by one they picked a chit. Team A got Annika, Shivaay, and Om, so team B got Rudra, Bhavya, and Gauri

First Rudra came to act, then Om from team A followed by Gauri. When it was team A's turn, Shivaay came to act.

Rudra and Gauri had a mischievous plan. Shivaay told them the number of words and he began acting. He was able to explain the first word as 'Hum' and the third word as 'Dil'. Gauri signaled Om to not answer.
