Next day morning, I woke up late and slowly made my way to the kitchen. Looks like mom and dad already left for work. Abhi was sitting at the dining table and having her breakfast.

"What's for breakfast sis?" I asked taking up a seat at the table.

"Upma" she said smiling at me.

"What ! Are you kidding me. I hate upma."

"Tell that to Yudhi." She said mischievously.

"Why should I? " I didn’t like where this was going.

"Because he made it. Your share is waiting for you by the oven. You just have to heat it and then enjoy it. I need to go now else will miss the school bus." She dropped her plate in the sink and grabbed her school bag.

"Wait! What are you taking for lunch? " I went behind her.

"I am eating out today. But you better make something yummy for dinner as I will be home hungry in the evening. Bye now!" then she vanished.

After Abhi left, my thoughts came back to Yudhi. Why did he make upma? Did he do it on purpose? Does he know that I hate upma? He could have made something that I like, then I could have changed my opinion about him. Looks like he is doing these things on purpose to make me hate him more.

Anyway I didn't want to think about it too much as I was expecting Kim to come soon.

I heard a car come into driveway, must be her.

"Hey Aru, how u doing baby? What's the plan for today? "

"Nothing so far, just sitting here and cursing Yudhi."

"What did he do now?"

"Well he decided to prepare breakfast this morning and made something that I hate. So I am sitting here and whining. Let's go out and get something to eat and then go shopping. " I was already feeling good.

"Ok madam, get ready then, what are you waiting for!"

I went upstairs to get dressed.

As I was coming down after getting dressed, I saw Kim munching something.

"Hey, what are you eating?"

"Don't know found this in the kitchen, is really yummy!"

"Damn you! that's Yudhi's dish - upma. I hate it." I couldn't believe she liked upma.

"Did you even taste it? I don't see the point in hating something without even tasting it"

"I know about upma, its a common south Indian dish. My mom's too makes it." I said putting out my tongue showing how much I hate it.

"Ok, just taste a little bit and then tell me what you don't like about it." she was good at making me do things I hate.

"Ok, I scooped a spoonful of upma into mouth - are you happy now?" but then my expression changed as it melted into my mouth. Usually my when my mom makes, it hardens, but Yudhi's upma was smooth and was bursting with taste.

"Oh My God Kimmie!! this is awesome - lets heat it up and then eat" I screamed.

"Told ya, never judge food by names, only by taste."

We heated it up in the oven and both attacked it with spoons as if it was ice cream. We didn't even leave the smallest crumbs and pretty much cleaned up the bowl.

"Aru, if he can cook breakfast like this daily for me, I am gonna marry him today itself, of course if you let me."

"Hey, till I officially drop him, he is untouchable, don't even think about it."
