Anika: Thank you so much Raghav Ji

After signing the papers, Anika handed over the file back to the landlord

Raghav: you're most welcome Ma'am, and sorry for the delay

Gauri: kohi baat nahi, ek aur hafta toh kuch nahi hai
(It's okay, one more week is nothing)

Anika: hume nikalna hai aab
(We should leave now)

Gauri: see you next week

She chirped, happier than usual. There was one main reason why, and that was because she was allowed to drive the car. Tej insisted that the two girls should take a car instead of an auto or cab, so Gauri ceased the opportunity. She absolutely loved driving, and even more when she'd accelerate the car and zoom down the road. On the other hand, a calmer Anika didn't know how to drive. Unfortunately for her this meant being stuck with Gauri's reckless skills on the road.

A few minutes into the journey and Anika was clutching onto the seatbelt very tightly as her sister's foot pressed down on the accelerator pedal. Despite the empty road, Anika still feared a car would come out of nowhere and cause a huge accident.

Gauri: Rahul?

Anika: Rahul kaun?
(Rahul Who?)

Gauri: sadak pe
(On the road)

Careful not to jerk the car, Gauri applied the brakes and got out of the car. She kept on walking towards a man on the road who was signalling for help. Anika also followed, unaware of what was happening.

Anika: Kya hua Gauri?
(What happened Gauri?)

Gauri: yeh hai Rahul, mere saath America mein tha padai ke liye, inke girlfriend bhi thi humare saath
(This is Rahul, he was with me in America for studies, his girlfriend was also there with us)

Rahul: Anika, right?

Getting an idea of who he was, Anika shook hands with the man

Gauri: what happened man?

Their attention was bought to the white car beside the road.

Rahul: meri gaadi kharab hua, aur mujhe kahi jaana hai
(My car broke down, and I have to go somewhere)

Gauri: kya, apni Simran ke paas?
(What, go to your Simran?)

Teasingly, Gauri smirked as she watched the guy blush at the mere mention of his girlfriend.

Rahul: actually hone-wali fiancée, mein bas uske ghar jaara tha
(Actually fiancée to be, I was going to her house only)

Anika: hum aapko lift deh sakte, agar aapko kohi problem nahi hai
(We can give you a lift, if you don't have a problem)

Rahul: that would very much be appreciated

He got into the car with them and they soon reached a house. When the door was opened, Gauri and Anika noticed a familiar face. The easily recognisable bodyguard Khannah greeted them first
