Virat was looking at her through the mirror. Their sudden closeness was having same effects on him. Not just on shoulders but he wanted to feel her soft hands all over his bare upper body. Sai also looked in the mirror and their eyes met. They kept looking at each other intensely. The long forgotten desire for each other started surfacing.


Sai checked out his upper body and sighed mentally. She had forgotten actually how muscular and well built his body frame was and today she got a beautiful reminder of it. Sai noticed some marks on his body. She wanted to touch them and ask him how he got them but couldn't gather the courage fearing he will take it in a wrong way or she might lose her self control completely. Sai came out of trance and closed the ointment tube. She thought of leaving the room when Virat held her hand.


"We need to talk Sai. We cant avoid it anymore." Virat said.

 "What is there to talk?" Sai asked lowering her gaze as a sadness settled there. 

"Sai, please....for the sake of Savi. We have to sort out things between us." Virat requested. 

Sai just nodded in yes remembering what her aaba had advised her about giving Savi normal family

. "What about tonight? Dinner with me?" Virat asked. 

"A dinner date?" Sai let out a small laugh. 

"Ya, sure...and you'll make me wait like a fool." Sai said sarcastically. 

"No, I promise I'll come on time." Virat replied. 

"Fine! Dinner date it is." Sai agreed. 

"9.00pm, your favourite restaurant....be ready." Virat promised.


Sai turned to go when Savi came running into the room followed by Rani as she was chasing Savi. Savi bumped into Sai and she lost her balance and was about to fell down when Virat caught her in time. Savi started laughing looking perplexed expressions of Sai while Rani immediately turned around muttering sorry. Rani was embarrassed as she thought she disturbed them in their private moment. While Savi stood there looking at her parents almost hugging each other. 

"Aai, baba....me too....all three of us will hug together." Savi demanded. 

"Sure princess." Sai tried to say no but Virat picked Savi in his arms and also hugged Sai from side.

"Sir, as the dumping ground was in outer area of the city, there were lots of farm houses with the gardens in them. My team has questioned each and every one of them. They all are white collar reputed people like doctors, teachers, lawyers. I don't think anyone of them would be a killer." Mohit replied when Virat asked him about his investigation after few days.


"Don't go by their profession. We are dealing here with a serial killer. These are mainly psychos. Financial or educational background doesn't matters. Increase patrolling in that area. Report even any little suspicious activity to me." Virat instructed. 

"Sir, some reporters have come to take a press bite from you." Kamal informed Virat.

 "What? Reporters...what do they want?" Virat asked and Kamal just shrugged his shoulders in response.


Virat went outside the police station and saw some media person were gathered around there. They ran towards him as soon as they saw him coming.
