Purvi: Alex….yeh kya? She checks the bottles…kitni zyaada pee li hai tumne…Alexxx…main tumse baat kar raahi hoon…
Alex turns and sees Purvi standing in front of him. She is wearing her waitress costume – short skirt and a puffy blouse that shows her midriff.

Purvi: relax Alexxx…tum please itna tension mat looo…ek kaam karo…tum kuch khaa lo…thande dimaag se sochna phir..main kitchen me hoon..okay..
Purvi moves to his kitchen and is busy heating the rotis on tava thinking about Alex. She is startled when she feels his hands on her stomach and he is pressing his body on her back, murmuring something in her ears..
Alex (murmuring): Purviiiii…please…..i need you….now…
Purvi (turns): Alexx…tum yahan….jaoo main bas 2 min me aayi..
Alex (trying to remove her blouse buttons): please Purvi…make love to me…I need you…
He removes a button and moves his hand on her breast. Purvi feels pleasing sensations in her body. She shuts her eyes and runs her hand on his hairs…
Alex opens her blouse, Purvi realizes things may go far. She tries to push him away. She hurriedly puts her blouse back..
Purvi (scared): no Alexxx…no….yeh wrong hai..Alexxxx..
Alex (drunk, irritated): har baar ki tarah shuru mat ho jaana…kitni baar kahoon main….main tumhe dhokaa nahi doonga…main…I need you badly today Purvi….please mujhe akela mat chodoo…I will die…he kisses her lips soothingly.
Purvi: Alexx…magar…hamara rishta…shaadi….she asks this in a scared voice.
Alex stops kissing and looks at her. His eyes are blazing, his chest is heaving up and down..Purvi gets scared and wonders what will he do next.
Alex takes the kitchen knife and strikes his thumb with it. Blood spurts out..
Purvi (holding his hand): alexxxx…yeh kya kiya tumne..
Alex (putting blood on her forehead): yeh loooo…shaadi bhi ho gayi..ab toh khush ho tum…
Purvi is stunned and touches her forehead.
Purvi (whisper, tears): alexxx…
Alex (hugging her): I love you Purvi..I love you…
Purvi (overwhelmed): I love you too..
Alex wastes no time and deeply kisses her. He pulls Purvi out of his kitchen to his bedroom. He places her on the bed and starts removing her clothes.
Purvi (scared, trying to stop him): Alexxx..tumhare papa ko kya batayenge..
Alex (kissing her stomach): yehi…ki hamari shaadi ho gayi…you are my wife…he moves upwards and looks into her eyes.
Purvi (breathing fast, tears): I… Love you Alexx..
Alex doesn't reply, he just smiles and proceeds to capture her lips and her body….
