The alarm continuously buzzed and awakened Sid. He switches it off and searches for Roshni in the bed. He opens his eyes to see that Roshni was not in the room. He gets up and searches for her.

"Roshni" he shouts, and finds her sitting on the floor in the balcony, looking outside with a weary face. "Roshni? What happened? Didn't you sleep at night?" he asked looking concerned and sits beside her.

"The view from here is so beautiful, it is just perfect.. I wish our lives were as perfect as this."replied Roshni. 

Siddharth turns Roshni to face him and looks in her eyes. She looked sad, he asked softly,"What's wrong baby?" 

"Siddharth are we doing the right thing living apart from our families? Neither your family is happy with our relationship nor is my mother! After getting back my mom I feel guilty of leaving her all alone in this mess.. And you left your home, went against your mother's wish just because of me.." said Roshni softly.

"Shhh... Just Shh.." Siddharth puts his finger on her lips to make her quiet. 

"We are not going to live here alone forever Roshni.. I promised you that I will make our families reunite and we will do that soon. Let's take one step at a time. I promise you, we will return home as soon as all problems are fixed and Rajveer's true face comes out in the open. Now you are with me I have full power confidence that we will win this fight, this time. But.." he hesitates.

"But, what Siddharth?" asked Roshni. 

"I need to know Roshni that you trust me? Others will try their best to break our relationship.. I just need you to trust me this time baby.. I promise no more lies.. I.. " said Siddharth hesitantly. 

Roshni holds his hands and looks in his eyes, "I trust you. Siddharth." 

Both smile and stare at each other. Their eyelock breaks when Roshni's phone buzzes. Roshni sees the name and cuts the call. 

"Who is the unlucky person who has to bear my wife's anger?" asked Siddharth. 

The phone rings again, "It's Yash" replied Roshni. 

"Oh! Abh uss langur ko kya chaiye? Anyway, pick up the call Roshni.. You talk, I'll go freshen up." He kisses her forehead and leaves. 

[After sometime]

"Roshni where is my luggage?" shouts Siddharth. 

Roshni was in the kitchen trying to make breakfast, "I've kept everything in the cupboard!" replied Roshni. 

She tried lightening the gas and screamed in the process. Siddharth comes running from the room. Roshni looks at him in horror and then a big smile spread across her face and she bursted into hysterical laughs. 

"What is this Siddharth?? Where are your clothes? Just because we live alone now it doesn't mean you will stop wearing them!" she said and continued laughing. 

Siddharth stood there only in his boxers astounded. He comes near Roshni and sprinkles the wetness of his hair on her face. 

"Ughh.. Kya kar rahe ho Siddharth!!!" 

"Revenge baby" smirked Siddharth and gives a flying kiss. 

"Oh! Is that so?" Roshni asks slyly. 

Siddharth nods his head and looks at what Roshni was doing and says, "Wow! Biwi ke haath ka khana! You know Roshni I actually missed your tasteless food.." 

"Really? Tasteless? Let me show you how chilly thepla can be tasteless." 

"Arre I was just kidding! No chillies please! I can never forget the chilli vegetable you made."Siddharth begs. Roshni smiles.

"Btw, I have to go for an important meeting, dad had called. I'll come back as soon as I finish with it.." said Siddharth. 

"Oh.. No need to hurry because of me.. Actually Yash wants to meet me as there are some issues work-related and I have the files.. you are ok with this na?" asked Roshni.

"Yes off-course, he is your friend and I know he is a good person, buss Kabab mein haddi banne wale kaam na kare woh, warna par jaegi merese usko" said Siddharth playfully. Roshni smiles. 

Siddharth goes and gets ready. Both of them have breakfast together and after a long time everything felt normal. 

"If there is any problem or any issue you call me first" said Siddharth and kisses Roshni's forehead and leaves.

Roshni does some of the household chores and then gets ready to leave for Yash's meeting. The doorbell rings. She opens the door to find an electrician.

"Mam, sir had sent me to fix the television," he said. 

"Umm.. Okay can you please do it fast. I am in hurry." 

He comes inside and works on the t.v. He asks for water and Roshni goes and gets water for him in a glass. He asks Roshni to check the television, while he goes to the kitchen to keep the glass. Roshni switches on the television to check , and a video plays where Sid is talking to Kritika about taking revenge from Roshni. Roshni stood there stunned for a moment. Flashbacks of whatever happened the past 2-3 days came in her mind. She didn't know what to think of it. Was Siddharth actually manipulating her feelings like her mother told her? Or should she believe him rather than the others? She was broken inside. There was a time when she had full confidence in Siddharth and she could have never ever let thoughts of doubt come into her mind, but now after his betrayal she can't help herself, that thoughts like these crawl in her mind. Her heart said that Siddharth could never do this to her, but her mind had doubts that he could be the rich spoilt brat that she had always thought Siddharth Khurana was. Her reverie gets broken when the electrician says, 

"Ma'am as you can see the television is working perfectly fine now. I will leave now." 

Roshni turns and asks him,"Yeh.. Yeh video kaha se aaya?!" 

"What video, ma'am? The channel is working fine. I will leave I am in a hurry." 

Roshni tries to stop and ask him again but he leaves hurriedly. Roshni wonders whether she was hallucinating or was it real, she needed answers from that man, so she runs after him. She comes down in the garage and was about to call the man when suddenly she sees that the man was talking to someone over the phone and he said, 

"Sir the work is done." 

Roshni hides and then walks back to her apartment thinking what was all this about. She opens the main door and sees that the entire kitchen had caught fire. Beside the kitchen counter were some important work files she was supposed to take to Yash. 

"Oh no" she thought.. and runs inside.
