Anurag: But tum reh kaha rahi Ho?

Sonakshi: Umm....I can't...um.

Vyom: Mere saath.

Sonakshi looked at him as if he has grown two heads, Anurag narrows his eyes.

Anurag: Tumhare saath?

Vyom: Haa....she is under my protection. (smiled)

Anurag: We are meeting tomorrow.

Sonaskhi: Come to my Office.

Anurag:  Madam, Office se we are going out.

Sonakshi: Of course Anu!

Anurag: Hey.... Don't call me that.

Sonakshi: Okay.....Anu (grinning)

Anurag: (chuckled) I missed this and I miss you.

Sonakshi: I miss you too. Glad you are here.

Anurag: Bye... Goodnight. I will see you tomorrow.

Sonakshi: Bye.

Vyom flashes his fake smile to Anurag and followed Sonakshi out. He wordlessly gesture her to climb behind him. Sonakshi frowns but didn't said anything. They drove off.
He was driving with speed more than necessary, Sonakshi was scared a little she held him tightly.

Sonakshi: Mr. Oberoi you should slow down.

Vyom ignored.

Sonakshi: Waise aap mujhe kehte hai mein kisiko bata nahi sakti meri location ke baare mein, toh aapne Anurag ko kyu bataya.

Vyom: Because I wanted him to know that I am his competition and he can back off as soon as possible.

He didn't said it aloud.

Vyom: He is your best friend, so he is harmless. (he intentionally emphasize on the word best friend)

Sonakshi: Ohhh...I see.

Rest of the ride was silent. Vyom was way to quite, Sonakshi found that weird but didn't question him. She suddenly remembered that she wanted to ask him something.

Sonakshi: Mr. Oberoi?

Vyom: Hmmm

Sonakhsi: Do you.... Do you....(she takes a deep breath) DoyoustillloveZoya?  (she asked very fast)
