Leo calls Akshara. Akshara excuse herself from the room and goes in the garden. She picks the phone and they decided to meet. She senses that he was not emotionally stable so she decided it would be better if he didn't drive. So she said, "I will come pick you up in your home."
He doesn't say anything, he was not in the condition too worry about her. She goes up to her father and said, "Papa, I am going to look for him. He doesn't sound good. I am taking Brother Evan with me, so don't worry."
They were having family dinner. Ayden looks at Evan. Evan says, "Yeah Uncle, I am going with her. Don't worry." Ayden has been more relieved in terms of Akshara's safety since Evan has been with her lately.
They drive and they have not been talking the whole drive. Akshara has been checking her phone and Evan decided to leave her alone. They go up to Leo's house as Akshara already knew the location of his home. She calls him and says, "We're waiting for you. Come out."
He says to his mom, "Mom I'm going to stay out tonight with my friends. Don't worry about me. I will come tomorrow morning to have breakfast with you. And here is the number, you can call to contact me if you couldn't reach me. Don't worry, I just want to clear my head. And they are here to pick me up. I will introduce them to you next time. Bye."
He doesn't know who the other people Akshara has brought with her are. And yeah he is glad that she didn't come alone. He saw a car parking in a distance. He goes to the car and saw Akshara in the car. She comes out of the car and hugs him. Then after a while, Evan comes out of the car and says, "Aren't you going to introduce us, Darling?"
Evan knew that Leo doesn't like anyone calling her darling except her father. He knew that Leo is going to be jealous and might be angry but Evan decided to take a chance.
Leo looks at him and then at Akshara. Akshara looks at Leo and says, "Oh I forget to introduce him, he is my cousin brother, Evan."
She then looks at Evan and says, "You know who he is. He is the one you wanted to save, from me."
They look at each other and introduce themselves with each other.
"Hello, I'm Evan, her cousin brother."
"Hello, I'm Leo. I think she has told you about me, so I am not saying much."
She says, "Are you going to spend all night introducing each other? Let's go I have planned an event for us."
They look at her and say, "When?"
She says, "While you were driving, brother."
She opens the door in the back seat and sits inside. She didn't want to make anyone feel awkward, that was her actual intention.
They go up to the hotel. She has reserved three rooms, one which was her mother's and now which belongs to her, and the adjacent rooms.
They bought some food, a night snack and chips for the night. They decided to drink.
They decide to drink but Leo is concerned about Akshara as she couldn't hold the alcohol. He looked at Evan showing concern about her. Evan understands his concern. He speaks to Akshara. "I think it will be better if it's boys' night only."
She looks at her brother with big angry eyes. She looks at Leo. She thinks it's better to leave them as Leo didn't want her to see him in his vulnerable state. She speaks, "I will do same to you when you have a girlfriend, brother. I will double what you did today to me. I hate you."
Evan knew that she was trying to ease the mood by diverting the situation. She slowly, without wanting to leave Leo, walks out of the room. Leo follows her. They both leave the room. He takes her to her room and was about to leave saying goodnight and love you, Akshara holds his hand and kisses his cheek. She asks him to carry her, he carries her, and then she kisses his forehead slowly playing with his hair. Then she murmurs in his ear, "I don't know what you are going through but remember I will always be with you, love you. You know that, right?"
He kisses her on her forehead and says, "I know. You also remember, I love you and will love you till my death. And since you are here, I am able to understand many things, which I will tell you later. You being here for me, is the best thing and great help. Don't worry, I am your prince charming, I am fine. Have a goodnight sleep and I will meet and have breakfast with you tomorrow."
She tries to cling to him showing him that she wants him to be with her but then she says, "Call your mother before having a drink, otherwise she will be worried for a whole night."
He nods his head and says, "If you are there every pain, dilemma, and worry seems to be nothing. I am really lucky to have you in my life, luckiest in the whole world."
She looks at him and says, "Remember that every time before flirting with other women."
He looks at her with worrying eyes. She comes up to him and senses that he is scared, scared of her misunderstanding him. She pulls his leather jacket down and bites him in his neck, giving him a hickey.
She winks at him saying, "Just kidding."
He says, "Seducing me?"
She says, "Not a right time, right?"
He replies, "Want to know?"
She pushes him away and says goodnight.
He goes to the room where Evan is drinking
Evan pours a glass of red wine for Leo. They both cheers their drinks and starts drinking. They drink for quite a round.
Evan seemed to be drunk so Leo walks Evan up to his room and returns to drink alone. He calls his mother and says, "Mom I am so glad that you forgive dad. I love you so much. You are so kind."
She replies, "I am not the one who is kind, your father is kind, loving, respectful. But thank you darling for understanding me and your father. We, whether with you or not, always love you."
He then says, "Mom, let's cancel the breakfast, and let's have lunch together. And let's go on a trip together, a bit longer trip, mother and son."
She says, "Okay baby, don't drink much and get a goodnight sleep."
He says, "Goodnight mom."
