"It's not a haunted house, this silly girl felt it when I showed her the pictures. It's a normal place, don't assume anything." Sameer said in a rude voice, and Naina rolled her eyes.

"Whatever, but I really want to go there." Naina whined like a baby, and Sameer declared - "We won't go there."

"But Why? Please fulfill my one last wish." She pouted cutely, and his anger melted now like an ice-cream. He gritted his teeth at her, and said in a stringent voice - "Fine...but don't tell me you are feeling suffocated after seeing the place, because I won't let you come out before 1:00 am. Am I clear?"

"Yes Sir." Naina bowed down her head with a sweet smile, and Everyone laughed seeing her antics.

"But what about keys?" Altamash queried, and before Sameer could answer him. Riya said smilingly - "We can break the lock by using a stone."

"Now I understand why you left law studies, your whole interest was in becoming a Thief." He commented with an attitude.

"Yes I am a thief of your heart, after all I have stolen it without doing anything much." Riya replied to him with a shy smile, and Altamash was clean bowled with her answer.

"Please continue your romance after reaching there." Kajal said with a tight-lipped smile.

"One-Sided Romance." He corrected her annoyingly.

"Soon it will be a two sided My Alma." Riya gave a flying kiss, and wink at him before walking away.

Everyone was left one by one, only Samaina was there. Naina looked at him nervously, and asked him softly - "How was the pancake?"

"I threw it away in the dustbin." Sameer retorted while glaring at her in exasperation.

"Oh...thank god you didn't have it, I mistakenly added extra sugar." She said with an innocent face.

"No...I didn't feel there was extra sugar. It was perfect, the slightly burnt part was pretty horrible to swallow down." Sameer spoke with a solemn face, and soon noticed a smirk arriving on Naina's face.

He spills the beans like an idiot.

"You don't have to feel ashamed, Sameer, I know you, like a mother knows her own child. Don't hide anything from me, and even if you would have thrown my pancake in the dustbin, I still would have felt good. At least on that pretext you would have touched my pancake, this was enough to bring a smile on my face " Naina said with a small smile, and looked at him lovingly.

"What do you think? This will melt me? I will welcome you again in my life with open arms?" He asked her threateningly, and She nodded her head negatively, and said with a smirk - "No...but at least let me try, maybe you will accept me one day. I won't lose hope easily."

Naina stood up to leave, but a strong hand abruptly halted her for walking away, and decreasing the remaining distance between them. Sameer said in an intense voice - "do whatever the hell you want, but listen to me carefully, I will not accept you ever in my life. The girl I loved madly has changed, and so my love for her is also finished now."

"The girl you loved madly is still the same for her lover. She might be little changed for others, but for him she is still an old Nerd Timid Girl, who used to feel nervous under his gaze." Naina spoke in a husky voice, lightly touching his damp hair.

"Leave this all, care to tell me why you want to go to that haunted house?" Sameer asked her aggressively, as his eyes stared into her innocent ones.
