Everyone was supposed to go the party. Krish came back home from work and found Keya dead on her bed. He called up Tanya who said that Aanya was asleep too.

"She's sleeping so soundly that I don't wanna wake her up," she said.

"I guess we all need some good sleep. Keya has working round the clock. Her sleep schedule is ruined. Let's just plan something for the weekend," Krish told her, "And even you have so much to do!"

"You are coming with me to the caterers this Sunday?," She asked.

"Yes ofcourse I am," Krish said, "And I'll do whatever else you want my help with too."

"Okay I'll go sleep now. Just call Vivan and let him know," Tanya told him.

"Yep! Good night love," he said.

"Good night babe," she said and hung up.

Krish called Vivan and he answered immediately, "So Keya is asleep?"

"Yes," said Krish.

"Figured. She wasn't answering her phone. Guess everyone needs rest more than anything," Vivan said.

"Yes you should get some sleep too.. we need to pull some late nights at the office for a couple weeks too," Krish told him.

"Yes how can I forget that! By the way, why aren't you coming to shop with us this weekend?," asked Vivan.

"Oh I have to help Tanya with the wedding plus I trust Keya with my clothes," Krish told him.

"Alright then. Good night," Vivan said and hung up the phone.

...

The next morning everyone woke up well rested and decided to meet at Vivan's place for brunch.

Rajeev, Manya and Ritika had also come along with the regular gang.

"What is everyone doing today?" Keya asked, "Coz if we are free how about we go shopping today itself. This way even if the day gets hectic, we can relax tomorrow. We don't have work."

"I think that sounds good," said Rajeev, "I had to give out a few invitations today but I'm sure I can push it to tomorrow."

"Even we are planning to go shopping today," said Varun.

"I'll talk to the caterers and ask if they are free today," Tanya said.

"Alright then, let's head out," Vivan said.

Rajeev, Vivan and Keya left in Vivan's car.

Tanya and Krish left too.

Varun, Aanya and Ritika had their final assignment so they decided to work on it before leaving.

They were sitting in Varun's room.

When Aanya went to the washroom, Ritika asked, "What's with you. You seem to be lost in space. You are either staring at the laptop or the wall."

"When Raj and I worked in that NGO together. He had a lot of compassion for those children. He whole heartedly used to work for them. It's so shocking he could do something like that," Varun said.

"Listen. Vicky wasn't like this before either. But he still became a monster and maybe that part was in him somewhere right from the start. We should be glad we stopped it before it was too late."

"Probably but something just doesn't add up," Varun said.

"You know what? Please do all your thinking about this later! If you stay like this it won't be long until Aanya too figures out!," Ritika told him.
