Tanvi walks out of the airbase's administrative block at a late hour, swiftly making past the parking lot when she hears footsteps following her on the asphalt. Is it her stalker again?

She worked her shift on the Shakti aircraft, also assisted Harjot as an extra - part of her punishment when she'd skipped the superior officer's orders that day waiting for Samrat's return, and yet... She had also been visiting the cafeteria knowing that there's a chance of running into Samrat just to kill time. It all meets no ends. The stalker is back to harass her!

A stalker within the defence area, at a late hour, when there should be no soul around? Well, she brought this one upon her by herself! All her stupidity is why this is happening

A stalker within the defence area, at a late hour, when there should be no soul around? Well, she brought this one upon her by herself! All her stupidity is why this is happening. Because let's be honest, despite Samrat and the others claiming that it is unsafe at night on the airbase premises, especially on the desert road, it is generally safe. She had no trouble managing her way home on several occasions late at night, except that these days, she's dreading to be alone.

The stalker is none other than Saumit, adamant that she go out with him on a dinner date. "You were supposed to go out with me on Valentine's!" He reasons, and no amount of persuasion works on him. The sly bastard even chooses the late hour when she's alone to corner her and unleash his drama.

He's still following her now. Tanvi can hear him moving in the quiet night. They haven't made it to the main gates, and he hasn't said a word. She decides to confront him first. Oh, how she would like to punch him in the face! She would have punched him a few days ago when he began stalking her, but decided on adopting more peaceful means. Alas, peaceful means never work!

She quickens her pace on purpose. The one in her pursuit does too, closing the distance between them.

"You scumbag, stalker! Take this! How dare you follow me-"

She whirls at once, hand drawn out to punch the lights out of her stalker, but he deftly holds her arm, cutting off her speech.

"Samrat, tum?"

Tanvi takes a double take at Samrat, who's still holding her arm and looks around, making sure her stalker isn't around
