"What! You are going to India forever?!" Sia shouted in shock looking at Bondita

"Umm..Yeah I mean, I am getting transferred to another branch"

"So you are never going to come to meet me also?" Sia said with a sad face

"Oho my overdramatic friend, I will come to meet you sometimes!" Bondita chuckled

Sia sighed and nodded, Bondita still looked bit worried, she was packing her things up from her cabin

"Now what are you worried for? Its your country! You shouldn't be nervous to go to your own country" Sia said helping her keep files in a box

"No, I am worried about something else"

"What?"

"How will I disclose this to..Shravan?"

"Oh yeahh, he will be really shocked and hurt to know this!"

Bondita sighed and called Shravan, and after few rings Shravan picked her call

"Hello Shravan"

"Hii Bondita!"

"You are calling him? Don't tell me you are going to tell him so huge thing on a call" Sia whispered but Bondita shushed her

"Umm..Shravan, can we meet today? I have something to tell you"

Shravan's heart skipped a beat hearing her words, he composed himself and spoke

"Sure Bondita, let's meet at 4pm? Abhi mujhe thoda kaam hai" Shravan said closing his laptop

"Haan, then let's meet at our place that cafe" Bondita said with a sad smile on her face

"Yess"Shravan said with a huge smile

Then they disconnected the call, Bondita started doing her leftover works

"Am I thinking right! Does she also..love me?"Shravan thought keeping his hand on his heart

He looked at the mirror in his cabin and got shocked

"I can't meet her like this! I have to get ready!"

He looked at the amount of files in his cabin

"Kaam baad me karenge!"Shravan left his cabin jumping

Mumbai, India

Anirudh was working in his office when his dad came to his cabin.

"How was the trip dad?" He said hugging his dad

"It was good" His dad smiled a little and sat in front of him

"You should have taken rest dad" Anirudh smiled getting back to his work

"Woh I had something to tell to you"

"Yes dad, bataaiye"

"One of my friend has asked your rishta for his daughter. I have met her daughter. I think she will be the perfect daughter in law for our family"

Anirudh rolled his eyes looking at his dad to which his dad glared him.

"Anirudh you should meet her once. You are 30 now. Its high time you should get married"

"Dad I am not interested"

"I am not asking you. I am ordering you that you have to meet her. Or else it will not be good for your business"

His dad looked at his angry face and left the cabin. Anirudh punched his fist on table with anger.

Shravan came to the cafe where he always meets Bondita. She smiled looking at him

"Am i late?" Shravan said nervously

"No, I am early" Bondita smiled and gestured him to sit down. 

"Umm..Shravan , actually..I had something to tell you " Shravan looked at Bondita who looked a bit stressed and nervous. 

"Shravan, ab jo main kehne jaa rahi hoon..promise me it should not affect our friendship. You will still be my best friend right?" Shravan nodded his head smiling. His heart was beating fast

"Yes Bondita, Don't be nervous. Tumhe jo kehna hai keh do." Shravan was asking her not to be nervous but internally was nervous and excited as hell!

Bondita passed a letter towards him gesturing him to open it. He frowned and slowly opened the letter reading what is written inside.

Bondita closed her eyes not wanting to see his angry and sad expressions. 

Shravan read the letter and was truly happy for Bondita as she got a promotion but teared up thinking that she will not be around him anymore. He wiped his tears and tried to control his emotions and called her name making her open her eyes and look at him. He gave a proud smile to her. 

"Tum..you are not angry with me?" Bondita frowned making Shravan chuckle. Shravan came towards her giving her a small hug

"I am so proud of you Bondita and i wish you all the best for your future. Mujhe pata hai you will be the best best Designer in India!" Bondita teared up listening to his words and hugged him tightly. 

"Rotlu"(Crybaby) Shravan chuckled wiping her tears making her glare at him. Their emotional moment was broken as someone joined their hug.

"Oh god, you guys are so emotional!" Sia said dramatically making them sigh at her. 

"Ooh, someone's looking extra handsome today!" Sia flirted with Shravan looking at him as he looked more dressed than usual. 

"I always look extra handsome" Shravan winked at Sia. 

"Sia, i told you not to flirt with him. He has a girlfriend!"

"Yeah yeah his invisible girlfriend. Do you even have a girlfriend for real Shravan?" Sia asked raising her brows. Even Bondita looked at Shravan for an answer 

"Today Bondita is the center of the talk, so lets talk about her. Lets give her a farewell party" Shravan  tried to change the topic

"Oh yes! " Sia said with excitement as they started planning what they should do before Bondita leaves. 

2 days later. 

Bondita waved at Shravan and Sia with teary eyes and left for India. She closed her eyes in the flight ready for her new journey.

After settling in the quarter given to her by company and taking some rest. She went to her office Royal Woods where everyone welcomed her and she was happy. 

"Bondita, could you accompany me for a client discussion. We have discussed about few things with the client but if you could meet them, you can tell about your ideas and we can take the project further" Her senior asked Bondita to which she happily agreed 

"Great so we have to go to Taj hotel for the discussion after lunch. All the best" Senior smiled at her and Bondita nodded continuing her work. 

"Sir, today we have a discussion with the design head for the Naarya project at 4pm." Riya informed Anirudh to which he nodded and asked her to send the other details through mail. 

Anirudh smiled as he got a call from his dad. 

"Anirudh today you have to meet Tanya at Taj hotel at 5pm-"His dad started but Anirudh interrupted him

"Dad, I have a very important meeting today so i cannot meet her, If you don't trust me you can check with Riya my secretary" He said cutting the call. 

"Thankgod I could escape from this blind date. Thankyou design head!" Anirudh smiled happily and closed his eyes.
