Nothing suspicious.

I was about to leave when I heard another commotion.

I walked towards the voice and then slowly went behind the huge pile of laundry ready to be washed and found Ravi in a crouching position.

Though his back was to me but the stink of his handmade oil and the white coat, his side parted hairstyle.

I knew it was him.

"I know you are not alone" I barked.

He stood scared almost slipping me me.. "oh Sandy sir" he took a sigh of relief, his eyes suggested otherwise.

"What are you doing here?' I asked in an authoritative boss-like tone.

No matter I had not been coming to hospital very often earlier but still I was the son of the owner of the hospital so the staff was actually scared of me.

Guiltily he lifted his mobile "sorry Sandy sir, had late night shift and then Dilip from morning duty also did not turn up. Serving whole night and day I was tired so I thought to take a break, I was watching a Tamil film, it very nice action, romance and lot of drama." His mobile screen that displayed the hero displaying his supernormous power of killing ten gangsters in one blow and then flying in the air as if he was a freaking superman He lifted his phone to show it to me

"You are watching a Tamil dubbed film. Really?" I asked shocked.

"Well they can be easily downloaded." He defended himself.

I let him alone and left for the airport.

"Dr Sandeep" purred kitkat, one of the nurses "where had you been.? I missed you."

Oh did she miss the part where I was engaged?

"Really I am now a phone call that you can miss?' I mocked.

"Really that was one hell of a lame pj" this was infamous Sia who couldn't wait for me till I reach the airport.

Yes she was that excited.

To run away from her family. Her words not mine.

Well I wouldn't lie and say that this trip did not bother me at all.

I was taken aback when Pari suggested for me and Sia to travel alone to China.

And if I was reading well Sia too stiffened besides me and when her eyes angled towards Pari she put her trademark mask on "wow! You are the best Pari" she sent a flying kiss in her direction.

Had I looked in her direction I am sure her lower lid would have been shrinking and retracting which isn't visible for a normal man, but somehow I happen to notice.

Probably it is because we share chemistry, an incongruous bond. Bond formed to due to unanimity of having an irrcorrigible past that we both like to keep buried in our hearts till we die.

Sia was happily dancing jumping up and down in her own place "it would be so much fun. We'll pick an apartment. I have heard they are better than hotel rooms. We can have our projector room, not to forget sight seeing. I have even heard of this wonderful night club and..." her continuous rambling was broken by none other than the mighty Raj "hold on hold on" he shouted "what are you implying Pari?" he shouted "Sia and Sandeep on a tour alone?"

"It is a business trip Raj" Pari stated, her eyes not leaving the two of us trying to gauge how much excited we two were, Sia however doing an excellent job with the regards.

"Don't you get it, they'll be traveling alone and they are engaged for heaven's sake?" he almost scratched his own hair at the idiocy.

Well he looked more like one!
