Timeskip,
At Night.
Krishna waits for rukmini to come out. He sits in their room watching TV but his mind is fixed on sulking and angry rukmini.
Rukmini comes out after changing her clothes. She ignores Krishna and stands in front of dressing table, adjusting her clothes.
Krishna-- Ruby that girl.....what was her name! Ummm....I forgot whatever, she just informed that for having dinner we have to go down in party hall. So we will leave once you are ready ok....
Rukmini ignores his talks and continues to fix her hair.
Krishna--Oh!, so Ruby madam is going to ignore me huh? is that your plan? How mature of you.
He says, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Rukmini kept ignoring him, As if Krishna didn't exist.
Krishna's irritation flares even further, his eyes narrowing.
Krishna--So you are just going to stand there and give me the silent treatment. Great Ruby wow!!
He claps his hands, his voice laced with sarcasm.
Krishna gets up and takes a step closer to her, closing the distance between him and her.
Krishna-- You really have no idea how stubborn you are being right now, do you? I am sorry baby please. I was just joking and plus I didn't knew that you don't know swimming!
He said getting irritated by the way he was getting ignored.
Rukmini then walks pass him towards the exit of the room with an intention to go down, to have her dinner.
Krishna follows after her like a shadow, his frustration mounting.
Krishna--Don't think you can just walk away and pretend this conversation didn't exist. We're not done here.
He says, his voice low and tense.
Rukmini kept walking down the empty hallway with Krishna following her like a puppy.

                            

                                
                            
                              
                                  
                              
                              
                                
                                  
                                  
                                
                              
                             
                            
                            
                          
                          
Krishna--You can't just act like a child, refusing to talk to me or listen to me. You are my wife, and we are supposed to communicate with each other. That's how relationships work.
He continues, his voice low and frustrated.
Rukmini enters the party hall.
The party hall was grand and spacious, with high ceilings and a large, crystal chandelier that casts a warm glow over the room, the floor was made of polished hardwood. Along the walls were buffet tables, heaped with delicious food, and clusters of guests mill about, conversing and laughing. Soft music wafted through the air, adding to the lively atmosphere.
