Banquet...

"No....Please no...I beg you don't do this..." A girl said

"Oh please! This is just your trick! Now shut up and enjoy and let us enjoy too." A guy said.

"No! Stop! DON'T" Alena screamed and woke up from her sleep.

Hearing the loud scream everyone rushed upstairs. When Alena still was in sleep she was sweating crazily even when the air conditioner of the room was on and she was holding the bedsheets so tightly as if they were her life.

Even now when she got up, she had a look of fear on her face. She looked as if she had seen something terrible. Because of this her body was shaking too.

"Alena, are you fine?" Ally asked.

"Hmm? U-um ah...Y-yeah I am fine." Alena said as she realised that she was out of that horrible dream.

"Then...did you have bad dream?" Sabrina asked.

"Kinda..." Alena said.

"What was the dream about?" Ally asked.

"M-m-monsters.... ah running behind me..."Alena said.

Though Ally was not satisfied with Alena's answer at all but she was not a person who would interrogate at 2:00 am so she just gave Alena a glass of water and got out of room.

"Why would she lie?" Ally said as she got out of thr room.

"How can you say she is lying?" Sam asked.

"She doesn't stutter while speaking." Ally said.

"It is possible that she actually saw a bad dream and stuttered because of fear you know." Austin said.

"Leave it! You two cannot understand it." Ally said as she closed the door of her room while getting inside.

Seeing such condition of Alena even Mike was worried just like everyone. He was curious too about what she might have seen in dream that made her condition so bad.

"Are you sure you are fine?" Mike asked.

"Hmm." Alena said.

Mike didn't asked her further but let her sleep.

**************

The next morning

Alena was not looking like a girl who had seen a bad dream last night so everyone was quite relieved now. Mike got ready for his office without a tension.

At the office Elliot was waiting for Jason to show up eagerly. Just when he found out that Jason had reached the office Elliot told his secretary to call him in his office.

"Sir called me?" Jason asked.

"Yes. Right now." The secretary responded.

Jason left his office with Elliot's secretary.

"Sir, Mr. Jason is here." The secretary said as she knocked on the door.

"Ok. Go do your work." Elliot said.

As the secretary left Elliot told Jason to sit and he himself got up from his chair.

"So...dinner was good." Elliot said as he leaned on his table and stood.

"Thank you." Jason said.

"So...you said that it is arranged marriage, right?" Elliot asked.

"Yeah..." Jason said.

"You can definetely dodge this question if you want to but have you done it with her?" Elliot said with a curious expression.

"Done..done what, sir?" Jason said.

"The thing because of which you are in this world." Elliot said with a slight anger in his tone.

"Oh...oh that um no... " Jason said with his head down.

"Hahahaha... great..." Elliot thought

"But why are you asking this though?" Jason said.

"Come to this banquet on Sunday. Let me be your wingman for a 'special time' with your wife." Elliot said as he gave an invitation card to Jason.

"Um..ok..." Jason said.
