Sunaina was getting back home, in an uber and was thinking about everything. Everything Niharika told, every moment she had with Arjun, and the words of Ranvijay too. She looked at her palm, she was fisting the spare key.

Her heart was beating loudly, so loudly that she could hear it in her own ear. Yes, she would do it. It's time to be Sunaina. "Uncle, do you think I can change my location?"

"Yes mom, I will stay at Niharika's today. Yeah, don't worry." Sunaina looked at her phone, cutting the call. 10:45 p.m. She looked at the gate in front of her. Locked. The security guard wasn't also there.

She took a deep breath, and went around the fence. She looked at the post on her right side. She took another deep breath. No other option for entering inside. She quickly held the post and started climbing over the fence. When she jumped down over the 8m tall wall, she smirked at it, as if she had just defeated the great wall of China. She thought to herself, "Huh, nobody comes between me and my love, you stupid idiot wall." She flipped her hair and took the back stairs instead of going by the lift in the front.

She quickly went up to the second floor, the door was shining with a metal plaque, Arjun Singh.

She smiled to herself, "How will you ignore me now, Mr. Aubergine Singh!" But, her smile faltered looking at the heels outside his door.

"What the hell? He has woman over his house! How dare he! Here, I am dying over him, and he is enjoying with another woman! I will kill you today!"

She was about to bang on the door, but quickly retorted. "No, I need to catch them in action, so, I can kill the bitch first." She quickly took out the key and very slowly opened the door and walked inside while tiptoeing. As soon as, she reached inside, she could hear a woman screaming.

She focused on the words, they were coming from the living room, she silently tiptoed to the kitchen and hid behind the wall to listen their conversation. 

"Arjun, I don't know what has gotten inside you? I am saying this for your own good." The female voice said.

"Mom, let me decide it. You can leave now." Arjun said.

"Mom?" Sunaina thought, oh so his mom came over. Looks like everyone knew he is in town, other than her.

"Arjun, you have already messed every thing up. The least you can do is marry Neha. She is Mr. Bansal's daughter. Ranvijay has already started to buy the shares of your father's company. If you marry her, you can get a joint right on Mr. Bansal's share, we can still do something to get Ranvijay out of the company." Arjun's mom said in an irritated voice.

Arjun sighed. "I will think about it."

Something inside Sunaina broke. "He is again thinking about betraying Ranvijay. How could he?" She could hear them hugging and Arjun bidding good bye to his mother. She was still processing everything she heard.

She didn't know anymore if she should trust him.

She again heard Arjun's voice, "Hello, how much more time do you think you need to buy all the shares?

Hmmm.

Please hurry, mom is already finding ways to make it difficult.

Yeah, sure. Good night.
Uh, bhai,
Is Sunaina okay?
Okay. Bhai, please tell bhabi to take care of her.

Yeah. Good night."

A swarm of butterflies started flapping their wings. Here, she was planning his murder for betraying his own brother, and there he is asking about her to his brother.
