Seeing Megan's doubtful expressions Jimmy chuckled and explained, "Me and my family went on many long drives and as a precaution my dad taught me and my brother the basics of how to deal with the basic mechanics when there are issues with a car, he also taught us how to change the tires, so believe me I know what I am talking about."

Megan was embarrassed that he saw through her and just nodded her head.

​​

"It is not a big problem, we can just ask a mechanic to look at it and it will be quickly fixed." He assured her.

"Thank you" Megan was genuinely grateful for his help.

"No worries" He then called a mechanic and gave his address and the mechanic informed him that he will send a guy in thirty minutes.

He informed her that they needed to wait for thirty more minutes, she again thanked him and asked him to leave and decided to wait for the mechanic alone but since it was dark Jimmy refused her suggestion and decided to wait with her, they went and sat in Jimmy's car till the mechanic arrived.

It was a small gesture but she was really touched at how gentlemanly his behaviour was, her opinion of him was slightly changing.

After they settled in his car, he turned on the AC and asked her, "Since how long has it been before your car was serviced?"

"It has been very long, actually I was planning to buy a new car but due to some reasons I postponed it and that is the reason I didn't get this one serviced yet."

"Oh, the mechanic will anyway fix it but it is a temporary solution, you would need to buy a new car soon." Jimmy knew a lot about cars and therefore he gave her his suggestion.

"Yeah I understand, hopefully I'll buy one soon."

"Where are you planning to buy a new car from?"

"There is a dealer, Thomas Motors, from there I can buy a good second hand car." she was planning to buy a second hand car, she understood Jim's nature and was not ashamed in admitting that she is buying a cheap car and anyway even if he judged her for it she didn't care at all.

"Oh no, please don't" Jimmy frowned at her.

'Yeah the rich judgmental boy would obviously not agree, I thought he would be understanding of my financial situation but he too is like those other rich brats' she thought and scoffed at herself for misunderstanding him to be a nice person.

"You should go to Car 3HK they offer heavy discounts and they are very ethical, they'll sell their cars at the best price, Thomas Motors are cheaters they portray as if they are giving good discounts but they sell at a higher price than the car deserves, it will be a loss deal if you will buy from them."

Megan was surprised at his words, she expected one thing and he said something else, she looked at him in surprise.

Assuming she doesn't believe him, he opened the website of Car 3HK and showed her the cars that are on sale, she went through the car models and prices, she was surprised as what Jimmy said was true, the cars looked better and were indeed being sold at a cheaper price, the car model which she was intending to buy from Thomas Motors was available here too but in a different colour but the price was way less than what was quoted by Thomas Motors, she was indeed surprised as she found even better cars on Cars 3HK which was in her budget.

"Wow Jim, thank you so much, I was not aware of this website at all, if you wouldn't have told me about it I would have been conned big time."

"Obviously, how can you not know the difference between these two dealers? Thomas Motors business has been affected for a long time because of their reputation, I am surprised there is someone who is still considering buying from them."

"Yeah I had no idea to be honest about all of this."

"Didn't you do proper research?"

"Actually no, my boyfriend has knowledge about it so he recommended Thomas Motors to me."

"Well then let me tell you, your boyfriend too has no knowledge about the car market and he didn't do proper research."

Megan didn't say anything as she knew why Ronald recommended Thomas Motors to her, one of his friends works there, Ronald even fooled her by saying she would get heavy discount because of his connection and she blindly trusted him and didn't even do her own research, she was more angry with herself than Ronald for being so stupid but obviously she didn't tell all of this to Jimmy as it was about her personal life and he need not know all of this.

"Thanks again"

"Chill Meg"

Megan turned to face him and glared at Jimmy, "Meg? Seriously? Are we that close?"

Jimmy laughed at her reaction, "Well we will be, we are going to act together so it is better if we get along well, the good relation we will have offline will reflect when we would act."

Megan nodded her head agreeing to him, "It seems you are taking Amanda's tips very seriously."

"Yes I am, it is the first time someone is enlightening me with so much knowledge in the field of acting" One can see the admiration he had for Amanda and how much he already respects her. Megan smiled hearing his words.

"Is this your first play?" she casually asked him, when Amanda introduced him she didn't mention anything about his experience.

"Yes as a proper lead actor it is, but in general no it isn't, I played some small roles in other plays."

"What kind of roles?"

"Dead body, a clerk who offers a glass of water to the lead role, these kinds of roles."

Megan looked at him in surprise, "Seriously? You are so talented and yet you played these kinds of roles."

"Well, maybe I never tried harder before."

She just hummed.

"When did you decide to be an actor?" She was curious and wanted to know more about him.

"I had been fond of acting for a very long time, since childhood I loved watching movies and that's how my passion for acting developed and grew later, and at last now after so many years I got an opportunity to act in a play" He talked very passionately when it came about acting.

"Wise decision of auditioning for this role, challenging roles like these are the ones that give an opportunity to upcoming actors a chance to prove themselves"

"Thanks, I too had the same opinion, I too believe an artist should show his craft in every role and not be very choosy if the script is good."

"True that"

Just then a tow truck arrived and they understood it was the mechanic, they checked the time and it was over thirty minutes, they smiled at each other as time passed away so quickly.

Jimmy went out and talked to the mechanic and explained the situation, Megan too followed him and was impressed how he was handling everything.

The mechanic checked the car and informed them it will take a day to repair it.

"But I have to go to work and it will be bothersome."

"But the condition of the car is not that good. Even if I fix it for now, you will have trouble again tomorrow" The mechanic explained.

"Megan, manage for one day and he will drop the car wherever you want." To which the mechanic agreed as he was a regular of Jimmy so she gave him the address of the university she is working in and asked him to try to drop the car there before 4 pm to which he agreed.

Jim offered to drop her at her house but she was reluctant as her house is one hour away and insisted on taking a cab or metro but Jim didn't agree as he felt uncomfortable letting a woman travel alone so late at night, so they both sat in his car and headed to her home.

While on the way they both started feeling hungry. She felt embarrassed to say so and he understood so he took the initiative and suggested they have dinner, first she didn't agree as she thought he was doing it for her but then he convinced her that he too is very hungry and food will make him feel better, so she too agreed but on one condition that she would pay the entire bill, it was her way of thanking him for his help, to which he agreed as he loves free food and couldn't say no to it.

They came across a good restaurant on the way and decided to go there.

After placing the order Megan excused herself as she needed to make a call.
