"Everything is set. A trusted member of my office team will be coming over to act as the registrar. We will sign some fake documents in front of Appa. His surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning" Mithran told Chaahat, who nodded in agreement.

Mithran closely watched the woman to check if she betrayed a single emotion. But he was disappointed.

He could see nothing on that face.

Ice princess!

"Did you check on Appa?" Mithran asked

"Yes" came the monosyllabic answer and Mithran's lips thinned in annoyance.

Does she think her words are pearls? If she opens her mouth and speaks more than two words in a sentence, then the other party will gain a huge treasure!

"And?" Mithran prompted

"And?" Chaahat asked, not understanding what he is asking for

"How is Appa? Does he look better?" Mithran asked

"He looks less stressed than before" Chaahat answered, wondering why this man couldn't leave her alone.

Can't he just take the hint?

That she is not interested in having an idle chit chat.

"Chaahat" Mithran's voice was laced with exasperation and Chaahat wanted to scream out loud to leave her alone.

"Yes, Mr Yadav?" She asked

"For heaven's sake. We are going to sign a marriage document in a couple of hours. The least we could do is be civil with each other. I do not want to spend the next three months of my life with an ice rock" Mithran ground out

"Fake" Chaahat said making Mithran frown

"What?" He asked in confusion

"We are going to sign a fake marriage document, Mr Yadav. And we won't be spending the next three months together" Chaahat said

"Oh really? What exactly is your plan? Sign the marriage documents and go back to your village?" Mithran asked mockingly

"Fake" Chaahat pointed out again

"The f*ck. I know it is fake. There is no need to repeat it like a broken record. Now answer my question. What is your plan?" Mithran asked

"I do not have a plan as of now, Mr Yadav. The priority is Uncle Madan's surgery. It will happen only if we sign the fake documents and make him believe that we are getting married. What comes next, we can plan once the surgery is over" Chaahat said

Mithran extended a glass of water towards her and she stared at it in confusion.

"Drink. You must be tired after that very long dialogue. I know you are not used to it" Mithran said sarcastically.

"Mr Yadav, if you are frustrated about this whole mess, the solution is not to try and pick up a fight with me. You are not going to get it from me. So it would be better if you let your steam off by doing whatever it is that usually helps you relax" Chaahat said

The woman is smart.

Mithran acknowledged.

She is one hundred percent right about it.

He is frustrated with this whole mess and he wanted to take it out somehow.

And Chaahat being a part of his frustration became a good choice, as far as he thought.

And her devil may care attitude towards everything just ticked him off.

He sighed and took deep breaths.
