Ajay: I don't want to go to this day care. The kids are mean
Geet: Nothing will happen. Now here...(she gives him a watch) take this watch and when its 4:30 I will pick you up
Ajay: But..kids are mean here...I don't want to
Geet: Ajay please...I will pick you up as soon as its 4:30..an alarm will go off...okay (She holds his hand and brings him inside...they saw kids playing with each other..one of the kid turned his attention to Ajay..)
Kid: "He can't come in here...
Geet; Why not?
Kid: because he is a cry baby..look at his face...
Geet: Oh yeah who is going to stop him from coming? (She roles her eyes and takes him inside...there she saw Pari sitting in front of a puppet theater...while someone did the voices in the back...
Puppet: when you see this small hand goes to uhh there (he said pointing to the clock in the front) and the big hand goes to uh there...then its time for you to go home.
Pari: But I don't want to stay here...its no fun here..
Puppet: No fun? No fun? How can you say that? When you uhh got a dancing moo cow here...(A cow puppet pulls out)
Cow: won't you dance with me...(The puppet starts dancing..Geet and Ajay laughs...Maan comes out from behind the theater and looks at Pari...Geet smile vanishes seeing him...)

Geet: Desperate times..
Maan: Yeah same here...
Geet (looks at Ajay) look honey now you can play with Pari
Maan: Yeah Pari..come..you got yourself a friend here (Both kids look at their parents and sighs)
Geet: okay now i will be back at 4:30 I promise...
Ajay: Am hungry

Maan (runs after her) Hey thanks for that
Geet: hmm okay...ohh and here is your phone back
Maan: Thanks
Geet; Fine...(she kept walking while Maan walked behind her)
Maan; you know I don't understand women like you
Geet (stops and looks at him) what do you mean?
Maan: Always angry and bitter at every guy that they can find.
Geet; Excuse me...I am the way I am because of guys like you. Always, saying the right thing at the right time and then bam when the fun is over...you guys call it an end.
Maan: Excuse me not every guy is the same. and in fact its because of women like you made me who I am
