After four days...

Neil (sleepy): WHYYYY MINIII?

Mini (pulling him out of the bed): BECAUSE IT IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH, YOU LAZY MAN!!

Her nails scratched his arm ..

Neil: Ohhh Goddd!! Leave me you wild cat!!

Mini: Stop calling me that!!

Neil: Stop scratching me like that!!

Mini: Shut up!! And get up!!

Neil: Don't scold me!!

Mini: Don't irritate me!!

Neil: Listen!!

Mini: No you listen!!

His phone rang, interrupting their fight. He picked it up...

Farouq: NEIL!!! Kahan ho yaar tum!! I've been calling you since the day you left.. na tum baat kar rahe ho, na kuch indication de rahe ho? Mini se bhi baat nahi ho rahi. Sab theek toh hai naa wahan pe?

Neil (sighs): Yeah... abhi tak toh sab theek hi hai..

Farouq: Abhi tak matlab?

Neil: Till now!!

Farouq: I know the translation Neil!! Aisa kya hai wahan jo tum dono itna urgently chale gaye, uske baad tumne call bhi nhi kiya.. koi message bhi nhi hai tumhari taraf se ..

Neil: Mere Bhai!! Relax karo!! Don't worry we are totally fine! Aur tum, take a deep breath, drink water.. not at once, aaram se, slowly...

Mini: 😒 look who's saying!!

Neil: 😒... Haan, phone rakho, aur so jao!! Good night..

Farouq: Arrey lekin!! (Disconnected) Ughhhhhh!!! Kya karu main!! 🤯

While MiNeil's side....

Neil (yawning): Itni subah koi uthata hai kisi ko?

Mini: Ji haan, mai uthati hoon, any problem?

Neil: Problems hi problems hain!! IT IS 4:00 AM MINI!!!

Mini: Pehle toh naa, tum dheere bolo..  aur morning walk isi time ki jaati hai.. sunrise dekha hai kabhi, how beautiful it is... But actually, tumhara routine dekhte huye toh pata chal hi raha hai, ki tumne bas moonrise hi dekha hai aaj tak!!

Neil: 😐

Mini: What? Don't give me those looks, Mr. Oberoi! It's because of your obsession with late night old songs session... Mera bhi routine kharab kar diya iss chakkar mein.. Idiot!!

The way she addressed him as "Mr. Oberoi" got his attention...

Neil: Well, I thought you enjoy that "late night old songs session", Mrs. Mini Neil Oberoi 😏

Mini: Who doesn't enjoy that?

Neil: You!!

Mini: Hahaha!! That was indeed a good way to divert my mind but... I'm pleased to say that you failed 😏

Neil: 🙄

Mini: Now, how about an "early morning old songs session", Mr. Oberoi?

Neil: WHAT? No!! Please no!! I need to sleep.. please Mini..

Mini: I'm going downstairs... 10 minute mein ready hoke neeche aao, then we'll go...

She went outside...

Neil: Ab baitha kyun hai Neil Oberoi? Jaldi uth aur neeche chal.. otherwise this wild cat will make you run for your life like a mouse!!

After a few minutes, they left the house for their morning walk. Neil was still least interested but the only reason he came all along, was her.. her presence which he always wanted to be in. And she knew that he was not interested in this morning walk scenario, not even a bit, so she played one of the old songs on her phone...
