It was 7 in the evening. Shivaay and Anika were walking on the street to find a shelter. They were very tired.

A- Ab main aur nahi chal sakti. Main bahut thak gayi hoon. (I can't walk anymore. I am very tired.)

Shivaay looks at her and feel bad for her because he thought that they are in this condition because of him.

S- I am sorry. Yeh sab meri wajah se ho raha hai. (It's happening just because of me.)

Anika looks at him.

A- It's ok Shivaay. Don't blame yourself. It was meant to be happened.

Shivaay looks down in guilt.

A- Ab please Meena humari mat bano aur jaldi chalo. Raat ho gayi hai aur hume jald se jald koi rehne ki jagah dhoondhte hogi. (Please don't act like Meena Kumari and walk fast. It's almost night and we have to find a place to live as soon as possible.)

Shivaay nods his head. After sometime, they finally reached a housing society. The society was shining with lights.

A- Yahan help maangte hain shayad koi help kar de. (Let's ask for help here maybe somebody will help us.)

Shivaay nods and they walked towards a house. Anika knocked the main door. A fat lady answered the door.

L- Kaun hai tumlog? Kya chahiye? (Who are you guys? What do you want?)

A- Woh.. Hume aaj rehne ke liye jagah chahiye thi. Woh kya hai...( We need a place to live. Actually...)

L- Toh kya maine yahan dharamshala khol ke rakha hai jo muh utha ke aa gaye.(So did I opened a guest house that you came here shamelessly.)

The lady says angrily. Shivaay also gets angry because she was mistreating Anika.

S- Dekhiye aap aise baat nahi kar sakti hain. (Look.. You can't talk like that.)

L- Kyu tu kahin ka Prime Minister hai? (Why? Are you a prime minister or what?)

Shivaay angrily glares at her.

L- Jao. Kahin aur jao. Pata nahi kahan kahan se aa jaate hain. (Go somewhere else. Don't know where they are coming from?)

The lady shuts the door on their face.

Anika glares at Shivaay.

S- What?

A- Main baat kar rahi thi na? (I was talking na?)

S- Woh tumhari beizzati kar rahi thi. (She was insulting you.)

A- Toh kya hua? Kam se kam rehne ko jagah toh mil jati. (So what? Atleast we would have got a place to live)

S- Main iss ghar mein kabhi na rehta warna ya toh woh lady mere baal noch leti ya toh main uske.😂(I wouldn't have lived in this house ever otherwise either I would have pulled that lady's hair or she would have pulled mine.)

Shivaay says seriously while Anika bursts into laughter.

S- Ab tum kyu hass rahi ho? (Now why are you laughing?)

Anika pulls his cheeks.

A- You are very cute.

Shivaay gets annoyed.

S- I am not cute, I am hot.

Anika chuckles at him.

A- Chalo kisi aur ka darwaja khatkhatate hain.(Let's go and knock somebody else's door.)

Shivaay nods his head and they go to another house and knock the main door.

A lady in her 70s opened the door.

A- Hello aunty!

L- Hello child! Yes?

A- Actually! Aunty hume aapki thodi help chahiye thi. (Aunty we need your help.)

L- Bolo na child! (Say na, child.)

A- Aunty, main Anika hoon aur yeh Shivaay hain. Actually jab hum Dalhousie aaye toh Shivaay ka wallet kisi ne chori kar liya aur ab humare paas na paise hain aur na hi rehne ki jagah. Kya aap hume kuch waqt yahan rehne de sakti hain, please? (Aunty, I am Anika and he is Shivaay. Actually when we came here in Dalhousie, somebody stole Shivaay's wallet. Now we neither have any money nor any place to live. Can we live here for sometime, please?)

The lady smiles at them.

L- Come on child, jaldi jaldi ghar mein aao. Bahar bahut thand hai. (Come inside fast. It's very cold outside.)

Shivaay and Anika smiles broadly and enters the house. It was a cozy and warm house.

L- So my name is Rose D'souza.

S- Thank you, Rose aunty ki aapne humari help ki warna woh moti aunty ne toh mood hi kharab kar diya. (Thank you Rose Aunty for helping us otherwise that fat aunty spoiled our mood.)

Rose aunty looks at him confused.

R- Who are you talking about?

A- Umm..Wo..yahan aane se pehle hum aapke saamne wale ghar mein gaye the aur unhone humse bahut rudely baat ki.(Actually before coming here we went to the house which is adjacent to your house and she talked to us very rudely.)

Aunty chuckles.

R- Oh! You are talking about Sundari. Don't worry, she is like that only.

Anika and Shivaay smiles at her.

R- Chalo main tum dono ko tumhara room dikha deti hoon.(Come I'll show you your bedroom.)

They nod their head and follow Rose aunty.

She opened a bedroom door.

R- So this is your room.

A- Umm... My room?

Aunty looks at Anika immediately.

R- What do you mean? You guys are husband-wife, right? Because if you are not then please get out of my house as I won't allow any unmarried couple in my house.

Shivaay and Anika looks at her with a horrified face.

Suddenly Shivaay starts fake laughing.

S- Hahaha.. Anika tum hamesha mazaak kyu karti rehti ho?( Anika, why do you crack jokes everytime?)

Shivaay slightly hits her shoulder.

S- Don't worry, aunty. Woh mazak kar rahi thi. Hum shaadishuda hain. Haina, baby? (She was joking. Of course we are married. Right baby?)

Anika fake smiles and nods her head.

A- Yes.. Yes.. We are married.

Aunty smiles at them.

R- What a lovely couple! Chalo baccho tum log jaldi se fresh hokar neeche aa jao. Main dinner taiyar karti hoon.(Children, come down after freshening up, till then I'll prepare dinner.)

Shivaay and Anika smiles at her and she leaves the room.

Shivaay immediately closed the door. Anika sits on the bed with her hand on her head.

A- Ek aur naya siyappa. Ab hum jab tak yahan hain hume pati-patni ka natak karna padega. ( One more problem. Now we have to act like husband & wife till the time we are here.)

S- Pata nahi tum baar-baar meri biwi kyu bani ja rahi ho. Main toh sapno mein bhi tumhari jaisi dominating biwi nahi chahta. (Don't know why you are becoming my wife again and again. I don't want a dominating wife like you even in my dreams.)

Anika angrily glares at him.

She moves towards him and held his collar and Shivaay gets scared.

A- Toh kya tumhe gaay (cow) jaisi biwi chahiye jo tumhare isharo pe naache, tum kaho khadi ho jao, woh khadi ho jaye, tum kaho baith jao toh woh baith jaye, tumhare pair (legs) dabaye, tumhe khana banake khilaye, haina? You know what, tum ek male chauvinist pig ho.😂 (So you want a girl who is as innocent as a cow, who dances on your fingers, who stands when you ask her to stand, who sits down when you ask her to sit, who massage your legs, who makes food for you, right? You know what you are just a male chauvinist pig.

Shivaay was literally shocked.

S- Wo... Wo..

A- Ab Wo.. Wo.. Kya kar rahe ho? Main bhagwaan se pray karungi ki tumhe mere jaisi wife mile joh tumhe control mein rakhe. ( Why are you saying Wo. Wo..? I'll pray to God that you get a wife like me who will keep you in control.)

S- Par Maine Kya kiya? (But what did I do?)

Shivaay asks her innocently.

A- Ab yeh bhi main hi bataun? You know what let it be.( Now should I tell you this also?)

She leaves to washroom in anger.

Shivaay was confused with her behavior.

S- Ajeeb ladki hai. ( She is very weird.)

Anika locks the washroom door and sighs.

A- Ajeeb bewakoof insaan hai. Matlab main kabse ise hint de rahi hoon ki I like him par nahi. Oh God! Usey toh wife bhi meri jaisi nahi chahiye. Calm down, Anika. Iss bholu ram ka kuch karna padega. Ab iss bholu ram ko thoda chantomind banana padega. (He is such a idiot. I mean I am giving him so many hints that I like him but he doesn't get it. He doesn't want a wife like me also. Calm down, Anika. You have to do something of this bholu ram. I have to make this bholu ram, a little chantomind.)

Anika smirks to herself while Shivaay was still confused with her behavior.
