Setting: Mumbai city, Lokhandwala, Hotel
Day: Monday(15th February 2021)
Ranveer: Well I don't think I asked this before but what happened to your parents?
(Akshay gets a bit serious)
Akshay: Well I wanted to ask the same question to you but I figured that it was not the right time.
Ranveer: Well now it is! Since I asked you the question.
Akshay: My parents are supposed to be in Chandigarh right now and safe! At least that's what I hope. What about your family?
Ranveer: My family left for Delhi a day before the new year and I don't know if they're safe or not?!
Akshay: You know it's kind of strange that you didn't talk about your family at all since the moment we met.
Ranveer: Well you did the same, didn't you?
Akshay: True but that time we weren't really in a safe spot but now we are.
Ranveer: You're right!
Ranveer: I guess I haven't told you but my relationship with my family isn't the best.
(Akshay gets a bit taken aback)
Akshay (Curious): What do you mean?!
Ranveer: My family has distanced itself from me especially after my tenth grade. They sometimes treat me as if I am not there. I guess I had become a source of embarrassment for them.
(Akshay thinks a bit)
Akshay (Thinking): I remember that Ranveer didn't really, score well in his boards but that can't be the reason for his family distancing themselves from him. Is he hiding something?!
(Akshay looked at Ranveer)
Akshay (Thinking): Well, even if he is it isn't like I can force him to tell me. I guess I will just let it go for now.
Ranveer: You look pretty calm even though your family isn't here. Do you not miss them?
Akshay: Even I am a bit shocked by my calmness but I guess I am calm because I know I can't do anything other than hoping that they are fine.
Ranveer: I see!
(Sana, Sara and Samaira come out of the bathroom after taking a bath and Tia is with them)
(Akshay looked at Sana, Sara and Samaira)
Akshay (Thinking): Damn! They look hot with casual clothes and wet hair.
(Ranveer looked at Akshay with anger and cold eyes)
Ranveer (With Cold eyes): What the hell are you looking at?!
(Akshay gets scared and looks at Ranveer)
Akshay (Sacred): Nothing... I am not looking at anything bro. Calm down!
Ranveer (Coldly): I am totally calm!!!
Akshay (Thinking): Damn it! I made him angry!! Will he kill me?! I don't wanna die!!!
Sana: Ranveer...
(Ranveer looks towards Sana)
(Ranveer calms down a bit)
Ranveer: What is it?
Sara: Actually, Tia...
Ranveer: What about her?
Samaira: Well... she actually doesn't have any other clothes.
Ranveer: What?
(Akshay takes this chance to go into the second room and take a bath)
Akshay: Well I will be leaving.
Akshay (Thinking): Thank God! I was saved. I almost felt as if Ranveer was going to cut me into pieces and feed me to the zombies. He has become quite protective of those three even though he's not going out with any of them. Oh well, I guess that's how he is. I should make sure that I don't make him angry otherwise he might kill me.
(Ranveer looked at Tia who was wearing a big towel to cover herself)
Ranveer (Thinking): Damn it! I forgot that we don't have any clothes for Tia!!! I guess...
(Ranveer removed a T-shirt from his bag and gave it to Sara, Sana and Samaira)
Sara: What are we supposed to do with this?
Sana: Yeah! Do you expect us to see some sort of skirt for her?
Samaira: If that's what you're expecting then we must tell you that none of us knows how to sew clothes and I mustn't lie it feels that you're kind of sexist for thinking that.
(Ranveer looks at Sana, Sara and Samaira as if they were odd creatures)
Tia (Curiously): What is "Sexist"?
Ranveer: I will tell you later Tia.
Ranveer: What?! Just ca down, will you? I never told you to sew anything!
Samaira: Then why are we holding your T-shirt?
Ranveer: Because I am going to make something that would be wearable for Tia out of that T-shirt. I am just telling you to hold on to it for some time! Get it?
(Sana, Sara and Samaira nod their heads)
(After looking for some time Ranveer removed a pair of shoes from his bag and he removes the laces from those shoes)
(He walks towards Sana, Sara and Samaira and takes the T-shirt that he gave them a moment ago)
(Ranveer looks at Tia)
Ranveer: Tia will you wear this?
Tia: Okay!
(Tia wears the T-shirt that Ranveer gave her and after she wears it Ranveer ties the lace he got from the shoes to her waist)
Ranveer: Is it too tight Tia?
(Tia nods her head gesturing "no")
(Ranveer smiles at her and says)
Ranveer: That's good.
