Guddan(thinking): Ye kaisi jagah hai? Hamne aaj tak kabhi aisi business party attend nahi ki. Delhi me to kitne baar gaye hai lekin kabhi aisi jagah nahi thi. Aur aaj to ham akele bhi hai, samajh nahi aa raha hai ki kya karein.

She enters the venue where the business party according to her company's boss was held. The place was more like a disco rather than a banquet or hall. She was alone as Vardaan was not feeling well and he insisted her to go as his boss will search for them. She was feeling uncomfortable as all the people present around were almost drunk and were clinging to their girlfriends or wives they have brought along. She was feeling disgusted and decided to leave the place as soon as she makes her boss notice her presence in the party. She spotted him in a corner talking to some men. She goes towards them.

Mr. Khanna: Hey Guddan!

Guddan: Good evening sir!

Mr. Khanna: Stop being formal and why are you alone. Vardaan kahan hai?

Guddan: Sir, he is not well so he asked me to attend the party.

Mr. Khanna: Oh, I hope he gets well soon. I hope you are enjoying the party.

Guddan: Umm....Yeah, I will be leaving in a while.

Mr. Khanna: Kyun?

Guddan: Wo bas aise hi. Kal hamari meeting bhi hai na to uski preparation ke liye.

Mr. Khanna: Ok. Have some drink.

He offers a glass of drink to her.

Guddan: Sorry sir, I don't drink.

Mr. Khanna: It's Ok.

Guddan: Excuse me.

Mr. Khanna: Sure.

She leaves from there. She was feeling really uncomfortable around those people. Most of the people were staring at her. She was feeling the urge to leave the place ASAP. The moment she decided to leave a man came infront of her. He was looking like a foreigner and doesn't belong to India. She looked at him with a questioning face.

Henry: Hey beautiful, Henry here!

He forwards his hand for a handshake. But Guddan folds her hands together.

Guddan: Namaste!

Henry: Oh Indian style. Namaste!

He said in his foreign accent. She was about to walk past him when he holds her wrist and pulls her back to him and she landed straight on his chest. She immediately moves back to maintain the mutual distance but before she could move further back, he holds her waist with his free hand.

Henry: Oh baby! Where are you going without me? Why don't you tell me your name?

Guddan: Mr. Henry Whatever your last name is, why are you even bothered for my name? You are already calling me with different names.

She rolls her eyes at him and tries to get her wrist and waist out of his hold.

Henry: Stop struggling, you can't even move me an inch. And stop being so formal, call me Henry.

Guddan: Why don't you stop flirting and let me go or else I will scream grabbing everyone's attention.

Henry: Oh now you are blackmailing me.

He said caressing her cheeks. She yanked his hand away.

Guddan: Nah!! I am warning you.

She tried getting out of his hold but he tightens his grip on her more.

Henry: Don't waste your energy babes! No one's gonna listen you here. Don't you see everyone's busy here?

She sees all around and indeed she finds everyone busy and she was sure that no one will even look at them. She was afraid but she decided not to show her fear to him.

Guddan: Just leave me!!

She gathers all her courage and strength and pushed him back. He stumbled and before she could run away he grabs her arm tightly. She flinches due to the pain and before she could do anything else, an arm encircles around her waist and grips it tightly. She was shocked to see the person next to her. He wipes the lone tear which caressed her cheek which she was unknown of. He removes the hand which was holding her arm tightly. He sees the red mark of Henry's fingers on her wrist and burns with rage. But he decided to handle the problem with peace.

AJ: Mister, Can I have my wife's company?

Henry: Oh I didn't knew this beautiful was already taken.

He hands up in surrender with a smile on his face.

AJ: No problem. It would be better if you enquire about it before forcing yourself on anyone.

Henry: Oh sure, next time.

He leaves from there. AJ removes his hand from her waist and holds her wrist and drags her out of the place.

AJ: Kya kar rahi ho tum yahaan? Kya zaroorat thi tumhe yahaan akele aane ki?

Guddan: Aap ham par gussa kyun kar rahe hai? Hamne kya kiya?

AJ: Kya kiya hai tumne? Ye jaanna chahti ho tum? To suno, tumhara yahaan aana galat hai, wo bhi akele. Jab tumhe pata tha ki party aisi jagah hai to tum yahaan kyun aayi.

Guddan: Agar hame pata hota to ham kabhi nahi aate. Aur aap kyun ham par faaltu ka gussa kar rahe hai?

AJ: Faaltu ka gussa? Tum jaanti bhi ho ki agar mai nahi aata to andar tumhare saath kya ho sakta tha?

Guddan: Kuch hua to nahi na, aur hota bhi nahi. Ham sab akele hi sambhal lete, kisi ki zaroorat nahi hame.

AJ: Dekh liya kitne achhe se sambhalti tum.

Guddan: Kuchh karte usse pehle aap aa gaye the. Isiliye khud ko hero samajhne ki zaroorat nahi hai.

AJ: Tumhara dimaag to thik hai na, ya phir andar chhod kar aayi ho. Ek to maine tumhari help ki aur tum ulta mujhe hi taane suna rahi ho.

Guddan: Hamara dimaag hamare paas hi hai. Aur aap hame ye bataiye ki kounsi business party aisi hoti hai? Delhi me to itne sare parties hamne attend ki lekin unme se koi bhi aisi nahi thi.

AJ: Ha maanta hun ki business parties aisi nahi hoti lekin ye to thi na. Tumhe aane se pehle pata karna chahiye tha.

Guddan: Ab hame samajh me aaya ki Indore ke saare log business parties me kyun busy rehte hai. Jab party aisi ho to sab to busy hi rahenge na.

She indirectly indicated about him the way he used to say that he was busy coz of business parties.

AJ: Har party aisi nahi hoti hai. Samjhi tum?

He was trying to defend himself that he wasn't busy in those ways she thought.

Guddan: Wahi to, har party aisi nahi hoti, isiliye ham yahaan aaye the. Aap ko hamari fikr karne ki zaroorat nahi hai.

AJ:Mujhe koi fikr wikr nahi hai tumhari.

Guddan: Fikr nahi thi to kyun aaye hame andar bachane?

AJ: Tumhari jagah par koi aur ladki hoti na tab bhi mai yehi karta. Isiliye khud ko zyaada bhaav dene ki zaroorat nahi hai.
Bhalayi ka zamana hi nahi raha.

Guddan: Bhalayi? Kya bhala kiya aapne mera? Jhoot bola hai aapne, jhoot. Kya bola tha aapne? Wife hai ham aapki, kaun se rishte se ye kaha aapne. Ham bhi to kisi ko dikha dete aur keh dete ki wo hamare pati hai, tab wo hame chhod deta.

There was an unknown silence covered. She soon regretted what she said.

Guddan: Sorry, ham aisa kuchh nahi kehna chahte the. And Thankyou ki aapne hame usse bacha liya. Ab hame jana chahiye.

She was about to leave when he holds her hand.

AJ: Kaise ghar jaogi? I mean itne raat ko akele kaise jaogi? I mean....

Angad: Bhai, aap yahaan? Mai aapko andar dhundh raha th.....

He stopped speaking when he sees Guddan and sees AJ holding her hand.

Angad: Guddan? Tum yahaan?

AJ immediately leaves her hand.

Vardaan: Guddan! I am really sorry mujhe......

He gets out of his car and started speaking to Guddan and was about to continue but stops when he sees her along with AJ and Angad.

AJ: Abhi aa rahe ho tum? Aur tumne ise aisi party me aane hi kyun diya?

Vardaan: I am sorry Papa, lekin mujhe sach me nahi pata tha ki ye aisi party hai. Warna, mai kabhi Guddan ko yahaan akele nahi bhejta aur na hi mere saath kabhi aane deta.

Guddan: Aap Vardaan ji ko kyun daant rahe hai? Ek to unki tabiyat thik nahi hai phir bhi wo yahaan aaye aur aap unhe daant rahe hai. Unki koi galti nahi hai. Unhone to bas....

AJ: Galti hai. Use tumhe yahaan bhejne se pehle saari information nikalni chahiye thi.

Guddan: Lekin...

Vardaan: Nahi Guddan, Papa sahi keh rahe hai. Mujhe tumhe bhejna hi nahi chaiye tha. I am sorry.

Guddan: It's Ok Vardaan ji.

Vardaan: Waise mai to bekaar ki itni tension le raha tha aur jaldi jaldi yahaan aa gaya. Mai to bhool hi gaya tha ki Papa bhi yahan honge. Tumhe to kuchh nahi ho sakta tha. Sahi kaha na Angad chachu.

Angad: Ha bilkul.

AJ glares at them and they both shut their mouths without further speaking.

Guddan: Ek minute, matlab agar aapko yaad hota ki ye yahaan par hai, tab to phir aap yahaan aate hi nahi. Achha hai, nahi aap sab ka khaandan bohot achha hai. Enjoy. Ham ja rahe hai.

Vardaan: Arey Guddan ruko, mera wo matlab nahi tha.

Guddan: To kya matlab hai aapka? Wo koi personal guard nahi hai hamare jo 24×7 hamari protection karenge.

Vardaan: Guard nahi hai lekin pati to.....

Before he could continue he received a glare from her.

Guddan: Hame ghar jana hai. Agar aap chalna chahte hai to chaliye warna ham akele hi ja rahe hai.

Vardaan: Nahi, mai bhi aa raha hun.

Guddan: Chaliye.

They both leave to their home and even AJ and Angad left because of the chaos.
