Inside the box there are a pair of golden bangles. They have a peac.o.c.k design on each bangle and the carvings on it are very delicate and the craftsmanship is so amazing that they made impossible for others to look away from them.They are not any simple bangles. They are antique pieces, one could say that they are priceless just by looking at them.

Everyone is in awe when they saw it and Shriya looked at the man who is still standing in front of her and looking at her and observing her expressions with a gentle face.

She stood up from her place and said "Kunal, it's seems so expensive. I can't take it, moreover it's not my birthday" she said while handing him the blue box.

Kunal shook his head, but before he could say anything, Abhi stood next to his woman and put his left arm on her shoulder and said with a gentle smile "Take it, this iceberg is not so warm to everyone, you are an exception, just accept it", and he winked at his friend. Kunal frowned at his friend's comment.

Shriya nodded her head and accepted the gift and Thanked Kunal for the gift. Uday asked Kunal and his brother to sit. Kunal's brother sat next to Uday and Kunal had no choice but to sit next to Sony. He frowned again to sit there and Sony stood up as soon as she saw Kunal sitting next to her. Everyone looked at her and they were trying very hard not to laugh out loud. Kunal understood the situation and he caught Sony's wrist and pulled her to make her sit on the chair before the situation gets even more awkward.

Everyone was talking to themselves and Shriya went inside to put the boxes in the room. Sony muttered to herself 'A rich iceberg, cold but cute' and looked at the man next to her who was staring at her with a killer gaze.

After an hour of talking and enjoying everyone went to the stage and Preeti stood next to the table. Housekeeper brought the cake and it was a beautiful three storey cake with a Cinderella doll on the top. Both Abhi and Shriya stood on either side of her and helped her blow the candles and cut the cake.

Soon the cake cutting event ended and they went to the dining table to have dinner. It was a large twelve seater table. Everyone sat in their usual places with Abhi at one end of the table with both Sheren sisters on either side of him. All the boys sat on one side in an order. Rahul sat next to Preeti followed by Uday, Naveen and Kunal and on the other end of the table sat Kunal's brother.

All the girls sat opposite to their men and the only place left for Sony is opposite to Kunal. Kunal felt like his day is cursed and he faced all the misfortunes on the same day. He frowned again and it was the first time for Kunal's brother to see him frown so many times in a single day.

Maids prepared so many dishes and the table was filled with so many delicious dishes and specials like Chicken Biryani, Palak Paneer, Paneer b.u.t.ter masala, fishfry, Roti, Pulav Dhal and some many other dishes. Sweets like Rasgulla, khir, gulab jamun etc. It was literally like a giant feast.

There are also fruit salads, vegetable salads, omelets and many soft drinks and a bottle of red wine.

Abhi and Kunal are very strict with their diet so they preferred Salads. Maids served the food and Abhi took the fish from the plates of Shriya and Preeti and started removing the skin and bones from them and the put the fish back into their plates. Sony looked at everyone and noticed not only Abhi but every man present there was doing the same thing and putting the pieces back in their partners plates.

Kunal looked at the woman sitting opposite to him and he soon understood she is the only girl who is single there, other than the little girl. He couldn't help but tease her. He said in a silent voice "Don't look around, no one is there to help you here with fish. So just eat."

He didn't look up from his plate and hearing his comments Sony felt very irritated and said firmly "I can help myself , you don't bother", and saying this she looked around to make sure no one looking at them and stepped on his foot with her heel under the table. He looked up and his expression changed and he had a pained look on his face. He stared at her with a grave expression but kept silent. She ignored him and started eating.

She looked at him and removed her foot from his and smiled viciously. Before she could say something he said with a devilish smile on his face "You will pay for it" and he stepped back on her foot and didnot remove it for a long time besides he pressed it so hard as if he is grinding something under his foot. No one at the table was aware of this fight which is happening below the table.

When he stepped on her foot, Sony looked up and soon her eyes became moist and tears started rolling down her eyes. As soon as he saw her tears Kunal felt shocked and removed his feet from her's.

Soon the dinner finished and everyone left the Mansion. Everyone observed Sony sad mood but didn't ask her anything and even she kept silent the entire time.

Kunal was busy with his schedule and when Abhi invited him to Preeti's birthday party, he decided to present a gift to Shriya too. He decided to present her the bangles which were almost a century old which were worn by his great grandmothers and they are a resemblance of the Rajput dynasty.

But he didn't know that he would meet an interesting character there at the party. When he entered the patio, he heard a girl blabbering about him and she called him 'a cold iceberg' and she also said him 'cute'.

Though he felt irritated by her words, he found her interesting. She is not like all the girls out there who wants to suck up to him. She is a free soul and blabbers whatever comes to her mind without thinking. He enjoyed her innocent looks and chatter,but he also felt guilty for hurting her.

After leaving the Mansion Kunal sat in his car. He smiled which is very unusual of him, and muttered to himself "Crazy girl".
