Swayam- Finally! We are done with the booking now Room arrangements ke liye...chale?

Swayam- Hmm...

They hired a cab and both reached at the Hotel...
Sharon- Swayam! Yeh hotel humare College ke paas hi mein hai...soit will be convenient...
Swayam- Yeah..bas mil jaye Rooms..then it will be cool...

They walked in and found the Manager. A lady was there checking some file...
Sharon- Excuse me...
Lady- Hello.
Swayam- We are from St. Louis College..Swayam Shekhawat n Sharon Raiprakash...
Lady- Hello... it's me Khushi Mehta.

And she forwarded her hands towards Swayam... "Khushi" this name reminded him of his Best friend and Late Wife...Khushi!
He faked smile and shook hands...and Sharon also did...
Khushi M- How can I help you?
Sharon- Swayammm...
Sharon looked at him who wasn't speaking anything. Now also no response came...so she only continued.
Sharon- Room booking.

Sharon tapped Swayam's shoulder , he came back to reality...
Swayam- Sharon...you book the rooms I am waiting outside.
Sharon- Okay Swayam.

She understood why he went out. After booking the rooms, she came back to him and sat beside him in the Cab.

Sharon- Swayam...
Swayam- Sharon..sorry...
Sharon- Hey! Don't be... I know "Khushi" you missed your wife partner na?
Swayam- After she went, because of her promise I moved on but today...
Sharon- I understand Swayam.
Swayam- We never were like Husband n Wife...I never lost my Wife but I lost my Best friend.

He looked at Sharon and a single tear drop made its way down his eyes.
Swayam- I don't know how much I'll keep her promise..but will try not to Miss her!

Sharon showed thumbs up to him and he gave a warm smile.

Swayam- Sharon...you are right...but...
Sharon- Acha fine... Don't come, HAPPY???

She drank water and ran upstairs without having her food...

Renuka- Ise kya hua? Gusse mein?
Nilesh- Are aunti...wo Swayam kal shayad hi ayega yahan...so she's angry!
Renuka- Huh...Sharon na...kon samjhayega isko!

Nilesh- Dekhte hai kya hota hai...
Renuka smiled at both...

Swayam was knocking the door..but no response came...
Swayam- Sharon! I'll break the door...
Sharon (shouting)- Haan tod do...

She heard a bang! It made her eyes go wide... she ran towards it...and opened it... There Swayam was standing...folded hands.

Sharon- What was that!!?

Swayam opened the door fully and got inside...
Sharon- You just leave!! Okay? I don't want to talk to you...
Swayam- Acha? Pehle khana kha lo... fir ja hi raha hun...
Sharon- Argh! Nahi khana mujhe kuch...

Sharon- Acha! Kya nahi kiya meine...huh???
Swayam- Gusse mein upar aayi...I am sure ab khana to kha nahi paogi... Gussa bhar gaya hai andar!
Sharon- Don't challenge me..okay! I can...
Swaym- Do that...show me..

Sharon furiously went down... Swayam was behind her, indicated all of them to keep shut...all nodded...
She sat on her place.

Swayam- Yeh tumhari plate...

She grabbed it and started having her meal... she even asked for rice and daal...and had it.. which showed how hungry she was...
All were smiling at her... she was busy showing him attitude. After she was done with it, stood up and showed a thumbs down to Swayam.

Sharon- See..I finished it.

Swayam nodded. Renuka grinned. Simmi n Nilesh hi-fived.
Sharon realized that actually it was all Swayam's plan to make her angry and challenge her so that she sleep peacefully with full tummy.

Sharon- Swayam, it was all your plan...so now go , don't come okay?
Swayam sighed...
Swayam (calmly)- Sharonn..acha listen, I can come..but after 9 only...jo ki bohot late ho jayega.
