It was a pleasant morning. The sun was shining over the Khanna mansion. The beam of light was peeping into Avni's room where Avni was sleeping on her back. Her one hand was on her stomach and the second hand was on her forehead. Avni stirs and she opened her eyes. Avni looked at the roof, here and there. She catches her head and sat on the bed. Avni thinks, her eyes fall on her nighty. She saw the string of her nighty is loosely tied. Avni frowns. She feels weird as her nighty was slightly hiked from one side. Avni sets her nighty and clenched her nighty. Avni thinks. 
Avni: what happened, last night? 
Avni thinks. Neil came after taking shower. He was wiping his hair. Neil looked up and stopped wiping his hair. Neil smiled to see Avni who was looking at him with a frown. 
Neil: you awake? 
Neil came to her and sat in front of her. 
Neil: how are you now? 
Avni: what happened to me? 
Neil looked at her. 
Neil: Avni, you... 
Neil stopped. He looked at Avni and understood that she doesn't remember anything about last night. 
Neil in mind: I think, Avni doesn't remember about last night. 
Neil stretched his neck. 
Neil in mind: Now it will be fun. 
Avni was looking at Neil who makes a serious face and looked down. 
Neil: Avni, last night, last night, you were unwell and was shivering so I, I came close to you. 
Avni looked down in embarrassment. She blinked her eyes. 
Neil: and then, then we, we lose our control and... 
Avni squeezed her eyes. Neil blushes. Avni opened her eyes when Neil did not say anything. Avni looked at Neil and was shocked to see that Neil is blushing. 
Avni: a, a, and. 
Neil looked at Avni who instantly looked down. 
Neil: and everything happened between us. 
Avni was shocked. 
Avni: bu, bu, but, but I don't remember anything. 
Neil acted to be innocent. 
Neil: what? You don't remember anything about our special night, about the union of our souls. 
Avni looked down sadly. 
Neil: Avni, I came to you and you asked me to hold you in my arms as you were feeling cold and then... 
Avni: Ne, Neil, Neil. 
Neil looked at her. 
Avni: please stop. 
Neil: why, Avni? We are husband-wife so what is wrong with it if we got intimate. 
Avni was looking down. 
Avni: n, no, nothing is wrong with it. You are my husband, you have complete right on me. 
Neil shocked. 
Neil: this means you are not angry with me. 
Avni shook her head. Neil was shocked. 
Neil: you don't remember anything still you are not angry with me. 
Avni shook her head. 
Avni: no, you have a complete right on me.
