After the passionate train journey, Arjun told Priya to meet him in Goa. He said it was a business trip and he wanted her there for three days. Priya lied to her family that she was going with her cousin for a short beach holiday. She flew to Goa and reached the small private beach resort Arjun had booked.

The resort was quiet and far from the main tourist area. Their cottage was right on the beach with direct access to the sea. At night, the beach was dark and empty.
