Kartik and Naira were still talking when it was time to go to their respective palaces.

N - Aww, we have to leave. Well, do you wanna be friends?

K - What?! I mean, yeah! Of course. Friends.

N - Give me your number.

K - (shocked) Why?

N - Tum sach mai Satyug ke rajkumar jaisa behave kar rahe ho. Kartik, we are friends. Friends talk to each other. And for that, i'm going to need your number.

K - Oh. (smirk) But what if i don't want to give you my number?
K - Oh no Kartik! What did you say!? Will she think you're rude? What's happening to me all so suddenly? You're acting like a typical boy. I need to respect her, and instead i'm flirting. Kartik you're ——

N - KARTIK!

K - Haan?

N - i've been calling you for a minute. kaha kho gaye?

K - (whispering) tum mein.

N - Kya?? Woh sab chodo. I don't wanna force you to give me your number. You don't have to.

Saying this she got up to walk away when Kartik stopped her. He held her hand and spun her around, causing her to land right back into the chair.

K - Mai toh mazak kar raha tha.. itna bhi nahi samajhti? Sherni.

N - Kya? Then you are a frog. Shy, but cute. Mendak.

Kartik and Naira laughed, then exchanged their numbers. They bid good bye to each other.

-At The Goenka Palace-

M - Listen Swarna, this alliance will spread our rule. We will get more riches and gold.

S - So we just have Kartik get married because of that?

Suddenly Kartik came and was shocked hearing their conversation.

M - Dekho, Kartik aa gaya. Kartik beta listen. I heard you talking to Naira betiya earlier. I think that we should fix your marriage with her.

K - WHAT?! All of a sudden, and that too just because we talked?

M - Yes, Kartik. Trust me, you guys will make an amazing pair.

Kartik just nodded and went upstairs in his room, taking out his diary.

dear diary,
my father wants me to marry naira. and that too just because we talked. yes, she is gorgeous, and yes i don't know what effect she is having on me. just one meet with her changed me completely. but i really don't want her to be hurt. what if she loves someone? how can i force her to marry me? if she doesn't want to, i'll take the blame on myself and say no to the marriage. i never want to see her in pain because of me. i mean, we are only 23, and to have such a huge weight on us and a small age isn't good. if she does want to marry, though, i'll treat her like the princess she deserves to be treated as. she will forever be my queen. the only thing is that i don't want to make her marry me because of our fathers.

Kartik closed his diary and opened his phone. He saw on Instagram that he had gotten a request from "Naira_Singhania26" . He instantly accepted and followed her back. This was the first time he followed any girl that he just met.

Once Naira accepted his follow request, he stalked her Instagram. Kartik accidentally liked a picture of her from 104 weeks ago.

K - Oh Shit! What did i do?! What will she think, that i'm stalking her? Kartik, you and your fingers.

He unliked he picture and closed his phone. Kartik thought about the eventful day and how he met such an amazing person.

Unknown to what was happening in her fathers head, Naira believed that she had found a great friend in Kartik. How will she react to the marriage proposal?
