S –of course she did. She was the girl.
A –well I think kashish looked very nice too. Just like her mom.
K –thanks dad.
Sid –really… I seemed to have missed u.. what did u wear?
K was hurrying up with her food coz she wanted to get away from sujal. sujal in morning with his wet hair and good morning grin was a lethal sight. She wasn't even listening closely to take offense.
K –umm black. Black lehenga
Sid –u sure? Only black I saw was sujal..
K blushed a little. He matching outfits had been a total accident. No doubt people had looked at them as if they wee a couple last night.
Sam –that's coz u were too busy looking at kaveri. U shud have seen 'em dance.
A –yes thank you. both of u for the dance.
S –it's all right uncle. It was nothing.
K –yah. U don't have o thank us. It's the least we cud do.
A –well all I am saying is that u two make a great team. Whatever u take up always comes off beautifully in the end. Be it a murder case or a dance.
