Sidharth you know what, you have gone nuts" said Ahaan.
"Shut up Ahaan! Rhea tells me right away, which restaurant is her date in?" said Sidharth getting furious at Rhea.
"It's in Cin Cin, BKC," said Rhea.
"Alright! I'm driving the car and you two are accompanying me," ordered Sidharth.
"Yes sir. We don't have any work at all" said Ahaan as Sidharth gave him a 'whatever ' face. All three of them drove to cin cin. As they reached there. Sidharth obviously didn't want Shehnaaz to know he was there to check what she was doing.
"Alright! Listen Ahaan, Rhea & I are waiting back in the car, you go and check if her date is behaving well with her " said Sidharth as if they were on a mission. Ahaan followed what he said. He went and stood outside the restaurant where he spotted Shehnaaz sitting with a guy. He kept standing there noticing her every move, trying his best to avoid getting noticed by Shehnaaz.
But, of course, Shehnaaz saw him. She immediately got to know what was happening.
SHEHNAAZ POV
Oh, God! It's going to be a tough task .And this guy sitting right in front of me is so full of himself.
He says " Computer gaming and programming is all bullshit" like seriously did he even read what my bio read or swiped right by looking at my picture. I will have to get myself out of here any time soon.
I was looking around, figuring out how to get myself out. Where I suddenly, see there was Ahaan. He was looking at me and when I saw him, he just pretended not to look at me.
"Really? Does Sidharth think I am that stupid? Well, I am much smarter then he thinks I am, so I excused myself from the jerk I had gone on a date with giving restroom as the reason. I was sure as soon as Ahaan would see me not coming back for a little longer time, he'll give Sidharth a call, and then Sid will ask him to get inside the restaurant for searching me. That's how I am going to catch him red-handed. It's not an easy task to spy on Shehnaaz Kaur Gill.
It had been over 20 minutes and Shehnaaz had still not come back from the restroom.
As Shehnaaz had planned things went the same way.
"Sid, she hasn't yet come from the restroom, it's been over 20 minutes," said Ahaan as he called Sidharth.

"Go in and check if she is fine," said Sidharth as he panicked.
Ahaan followed what his best friend told. He went inside the restaurant.
"Hi, may I where's the restroom?" said Ahaan.
"That way sir," said the waiter.
He immediately moved towards that side, searching for Shehnaaz. Shehnaaz was smartly waiting at the backside as she knees Sid would send Ahaan inside to check if she was fine.
Ahaan looked around and didn't find Shehnaaz. He was about to approach a girl waiting outside to ask if a girl looking like Shehnaaz was inside when suddenly, he felt a hand tapping on his shoulder. He turned around and was shocked.
"Ohhhh Shehnaaz, Hi," said Ahaan as he scratched his head.
"Were you looking for me?" said Shehnaaz.
"Umm ummm..no I'm here to get a parcel. Rhea wanted to eat Italian and as I stopped by, I thought till the time my take away arrives, I'll just pee and come " lied Ahaan.
"Oh really? Rhea hates Italian food" said Shehnaaz giving a fake smile.
"Oh acha, thanks for telling me, I'll cancel my order. Okay Bye...." said Ahaan and tried to run away from there.
"Ahaan please, I know you are here to check on me, "said Shehnaaz.
"Umm...okay, yes I am," said Ahaan.
"Who has sent you ?" said Shehnaaz.
"R..R.Rhea, Rhea has sent me here," said Ahaan.
"Oh Rhea, really?" said Shehnaaz.
Ahaan tried his best to convince her when suddenly, his phone started ringing. Shehnaaz knew it was Sidharth. Ahaan tried not to pay attention to the phone and began to look around.
" Pick up the phone, I'm sure it must be Rhea," said Shehnaaz as she smirked.
"No it's alright, I'll pick up later on," said Ahaan.
"Come on Ahaan, She is your girlfriend she'll get worried ya," said Shehnaaz as she tried to peep whose calling.
"Show na, who is calling," said Shehnaaz.
Finally, she managed to see it was Sidharth. Ahaan looked down as he was caught. Shehnaaz took the phone from his hand and picked it up.
"Hi Sidharth, wait right there I'm coming," said Shehnaaz and gave the phone to Ahaan while walking ahead and signalling him with her hand to go outside the restaurant.
SIDHARTH POV
Oh, God! She is coming here. I can't even leave . I don't know what am I suppose to tell her. I'm sure she'll have her intellectual questions to get me speechless.

I'll do one thing. When she starts talking to me, I'll start getting angry at her for going on a date with a stranger. Yes, I'll do that sorted!
Ahaan showed Shehnaaz the way they had parked the car and went along with her.
Shehnaaz walked towards him with attitude and stared at him as if Sidharth now had no option but, to give in and apologize.
Sidharth exactly knew what was going to happen but, he still decided to maintain a poker face and act all cool.
"So how's 'Spying mission ' going on Sidharth," said Shehnaaz as she looked at him right through his eyes.
"There's no such mission, we are here because you came on a date with a stranger, "said Sidharth.
"Oh really, It's 21st century Sidharth Shukla, People go on dates via the dating apps! Don't you know?" said Shehnaaz.
"There still exists kidnappers and not so good people in the 21st century. Did you know that?" said Sidharth acting all cool but, petrified at what Shehnaaz was going to do next.
"I'm very much capable of taking care of myself. It's my life so stop interfering in it. Get that straight into your head Sidharth!" said Shehnaaz.
"I was concerned for you Shehnaaz. You get that in your head straight," said Sidharth getting a little frustrated.
"Guys, relax. Shehnaaz get into the car we'll drop you home. Come" said Ahaan.
"No Ahaan wait. I have questions to ask " said Ahaan.
"Yes, so where were we. Ha. Why are you interfering in my life "said Shehnaaz getting a little furious at Sidharth?
This anger of Shehnaaz was more out of curiosity. The curiously, of why was Sidharth pushing her away from himself. She wanted him the accept his feelings. There was nothing wrong with it.
On the other hand, now even Sidharth was in the mood for an argument. So he decided to drive the conversation ahead.
"I have absolutely no interest in your life. I was concerned about you," said Sidharth.
"Why are concerned about me? " said Shehnaaz looking straight into his eyes.
"It's because I care for you," said Sidharth.
"Why do you care for me," said Shehnaaz.
"it's because I ..I ...I care for all my friends. Anyways it's getting late now, we have to go for work tomorrow. "said Sidharth changing the topic as he knew, if one more question she will ask, she'll end up making him confess it to her.
"Once, again the topic has been changed. Just like how you do it at work " said Shehnaaz as she smirked.
"Shehnaaz let's keep work and personal life different," said Sidharth.
"Oh is it? I guess you asked me to go on a date with you in the office right?" said Shehnaaz.
Rhea and Ahaan who were witnessing the entire conversation couldn't stop laughing at how Shehnaaz had shut up Sidharth. Someone who would boss around and give savage answers to everyone had absolutely nothing to tell her right now.
Shehnaaz smirked as she won the conversation and moved towards the car to sit inside. Before, Sid and Ahaan sat.
" How quickly, she turned you from a driver to a passenger of the entire conversation," said Ahaan as he laughed.
Sidharth looked away in disagreement.
"Oh please, Sidharth. I'm telling you. You'll are just amazing together. Tell her you to love her." said Ahaan
"Ahaan, you know that's not happening. You know my reasons" said Sidharth.
"Is there anyone else left to spy on because you are jealous? Oops, sorry because you CONCERNED about them?" said Shehnaaz sarcastically.
Making Ahaan laugh out loud and Sidharth took a deep breath while trying to maintain a poker face as if he heard nothing.
They both moved inside and sat in the car.
On the way. Rhea was driving and Shehnaaz was sitting on the passenger seat while Ahaan and Sidharth sat on the back seat.
"So Shehnaaz, I've mailed you the details, tomorrow we start working on this new project, it's about computer programming development and you will be leading it this time. So Ahaan, Sidharth, Samira and me will be under you for a week" said Rhea while smiling and looking at Shehnaaz.
