He texted Zeeshan about the situation as Zeeshan is mostly online he got reply instantly saying, "Walk out its not your mess to be cleaned besides you should prevent yourself from getting hurt." And this was enough for Ray to be cautious. As he look at Billy with a smile on his lips and said, "I've to go back home as my brother would be searching for me. Take care of Samark and next time please don't call such late as I'm not Samark's family member." When Ray said this he knew that Samark was listening because he saw Billy was on call with Samark. And with that he stride out of the hospital and made his way back to home.

Ray was back at his brother home and was preparing the breakfast. Asher was still sleeping so Ray removed the note which he has kept on refrigerator and started making breakfast. As Asher like to eat pancakes, Ray made pancakes. Asher came downstairs by the fragrance of delicious pancakes. He saw that on dinning table there were maple syrup pancakes, honey syrup pancakes, strawberry pancakes which is favorite of Asher.

Ray just silently ate his breakfast as he was feeling sleepy and on top of that he was angry because Samark tricked him. Asher informed Ray, that he will be going to his office and will try to be back at lunchtime. Ray hugged his brother and wished him a best of luck and a very good day while closing the door. He videocalled his dad and talked with him for sometime.

He checked the game and did the task in the meantime he chatted with Jack and got Sophia's text saying when he will be free to meet? Ray's eyes were feeling heavy as he was feeling much sleepier  now but he texted back Sophia by saying, "How about a coffee in the evening at 4pm. She can send him the address." And with that he finally decided to sleep.

He was awake by the sound of the call coming from his cellphone. Ray was damn irritated by it. He tried back to sleep but again cellphone started ringing. He took out his cellphone which was under the pillow and saw it was Samark who was calling. With voice full of irritation he answered, "Now what?" Came the answer, "that how could he do this?"

Ray was already irritated as his sleep was disturbed and he was not in mood of argument without saying anything further he hang up the call and tried to get back to sleep. But again the cellphone started ringing and now Ray was not irritate anymore but instead he was frustrated . He asked with frustated voice, "What happened?" Samark gave a dry laugh and replied, "You are asking what happened after what you did?" Ray simply asked, "What he has done?"

"How could you text my fiance by saying that my leg got fractured" said Samark. "Isn't her duty to take care of her fiance" replied Ray. "You should be the one who should take care of me as you are my boyfriend" said Samark. Now Ray's frustration is been turning into an anger and he replied, "I'm a boyfriend in just game, virtual boyfriend."

"Now spend some time with your fiance and let me sleep" said Ray. By saying that Ray hang up the call. He then switched off his cellphone and drifted back to sleep. After some hours he was awake his sleep was not completed but he felt little bit fresh. He showered and headed downstairs to cook lunch. He knows Ash only take takeout food to eat and that's not healthy so he decided to cook food for him.

He checked the time and saw it was going to be lunch time. He decided to ask Ash whether he will be coming home or he should deliver the lunch at his office. He switched on his cellphone and ignored all the calls and messages. He called Ash and asked him as he will be coming for lunch or not. And in the end he is going to Asher's office to deliver him his lunch.

The staffs were looking at Ray with curiousity. Ray ignored it and headed straight to Asher's office. He and Ash both had lunch and Ray informed Asher about his meeting with Sophia. By saying that he left Asher's office for home. He get freshen up wore pink sweatshirt with a white pant, styled his hairs and saw that it was already 3:30pm.

He took the taxi and was on his way to the Cafe when his cellphone again started ringing. He wanted to have peaceful time in New Jersey but Samark was not letting him have any peace. He picked up the call only to find Billy answering him. He asked Billy as to what was wrong? and was replied that Mr. Samark and his fiance had argument and he was going to continue further but Ray stopped him by saying, "It's his personal matter don't bother him by saying it and if there's anything else contact Samark's parents not him."

He was at cafe, enjoying coffee with Sophia. He smiled and asked her, "what does she want to talk about?" Sophia gave a nervous smile and said," Her parents wanted her and Zeeshan to get married or get officially engaged but she doesn't know how to say that to Zeeshan." Ray gave an encouraging smile and replied, "That she should directly ask Zeeshan and he believes Zeeshan too has been hearing same things from his parents."

Sophia videocalled Zeeshan right at that moment and asked him about her parent's request to which Zeeshan agreed. Both Ray and Sophia teased Zeeshan for sometime and finally hang up the call. He and Sophia were chatting when suddenly the Cafe got empty there was no one in the Cafe other than staffs and Sophia and Ray. Both of them get surprised by the reaction and suddenly they were surrounded by some guys who were wearing black suits with a logo M embroided on the left side of their suits. Both Sophia and Ray were scared by this situation.
