In the evening Nandini was getting ready to go to a restaurant tonight
She was putting on her earrings just then her new phone beeped with a message
" tonight at 8:00 I'll be waiting for you at xxx hotel's resturant don't be late...can't wait to see you❤"
Nandini puts the phone in her purse and goes down the stairs
She was about to head out but then she heard a ring at the door
She peeks throught the see hole and sees Zoya?
Nandini opens the door and sees Zoya standing with a box of sweets in her hand
Zoya: hey nandini! Looks like going somewhere...
Nandini looks behind her and sees Manik waiting for Zoya in the car
Nandini: yeah...I'm actually going for a DATE...
she spoke the word date loudly which successfully caught manik's attention
Zoya: oh..good for you by The way who's your date?
Nandini: oh you know Mr kartik, yes the same kartik who is the CEO to the second biggest fashion company in India after Mr arvind
Nandini can sense jealousy on zoya's face
Nandini: why were you here? Can you please hurry he's waiting
Zoya: ah yes here is a sweet box, as my and manik's wedding date is fixed at the end of this month and here's the card
Nandini: sorry I cannot come....I don't have any interest in attending your marriage so please go and celebrate it with some one else...
Zoya was angry and decided to leave
Nandini: wait!
Zoya turns back and sees Nandini searching for something in her bag
Just then she takes out fifteen thousand rupees
Nandini: here....I can't come to your wedding but take this money and buy something for yourself or your baby, if I returned you empty handed from my house the media will give bad comments and I don't want to spoil my reputation
She hands her the money and a huge smile is on her face
Zoya: thankyou so much now i will take my leave because me and Manik have to go to shopping bye
Nandini: bye..
Nandini closes the door and waits for her to leave
As they were completely out of sight Nandini went in her car and off towards the restaurant she was called to
Nandini was sitting in the backseat and was thinking what had happened before
Nandini: I really want to kill her!
Driver: don't worry ma'am a time will come when you will get justice
Nandini: thanks chacha
Driver: mention not and here we have arrived just give me a call after your done and I'll pick you up from the entrance
Nandini: here have something for yourself
She gives him 20,000 rupees
Because he's more worthy than zoya
Driver: thankyou
He drops her at the entrance and she sees the papparazi and reporters again
At a distance she sees kartik waiting for her in a branded suit and they match..
The restaurant
She goes inside and kartik treats her like a gentleman and pulls her a chair out
After he also sits he calls the waiter
Kartik: waiter! Two wines please
The waiter returns with two glasses of wines and a menu card
Nandini in her mind
Nandini: it's definitely a date..such a pervert
She was looking at him and thinking how much flirt he is
So kartik snapped at her making her come in reality
Kartik: am I that handsome??
Nandini looks down in embarrassment
Kartik: so what would you like to eat before we start on with our work?
Nandini: I'll have anything...
Kartik: then let me order for you
Nandini nods and takes a sip but kartik stops her
Kartik: wait! First we will toast so wait
He turns to the waiter
Kartik: please bring us some white sauce pasta and some steak
Waiter: yes sir!
After he was gone kartik took out his laptop
Kartik: so I've chosen a colour texture to make the outfits
Nandini: you mean the brazilwood color?
Kartik: how do you know?
Nandini: this pretty much matches the dark shades of red but it has a unique shade which makes it different from those of red
Kartik: don't worry about the material, I'll order it from Brazil
Nandini: okay and what about the style??
Kartik: this project is also yours so you decide
Nandini: this shade always looks good only on the prom dresses
Kartik: I was thinking that too....so let's agree on this and yes after the designs are ready we will plan a specific dat for the photo shoot okay?
Nandini: I agree...
Kartik: now let's eat
As soon as the Waiter arrives kartik quickly closes the laptop and puts it away
Kartik: lets toast to our collaboration
They both clink their glasses and drinks a sip
Kartik: here I had brought you something
He takes out a long red box
When Nandini opens it she sees a beautiful, thin necklace
Nandini: it's so beautiful.....
Kartik: May I?
He takes the necklace and helps Nandini to wear it
Kartik: it looks very good on you..
As kartik came back to his seat the waiter had kept the food on the table
Nandini: please give me the Alfredo as it contains less calories than the steak and I don't want to look fat and gain weight
Kartik: even if you eat all of this and the other rich food in the menu you will still be the same for me, beautiful and a Angel..
Nandini Hearing his complement starts blushing
Kartik: wait your blushing!?
Nandini: actually no one has told me this before so...thankyou..
Kartik: I'm very luckily that I'm the first one saying this
After eating their dinner, kartik and Nandini had come outside and avoiding the reporters, kartik quickly helps Nandini sit in her car and waves bye to her as she goes off to her Hon
After wards he goes in his car too
Kartik in his car
Kartik; why I'm feeling happy around her? Have I fallen in love?
