Mini: Tumne dinner kar liya?

Neil: (Avoiding the question) Tumne kar liya?

Mini: Sort of... matlab... khana itna pasand nahi aaya to kam hi khaya hai maine... ek min... main tumse puch rahi hu... to pehle tumhe batana chahiye na...

Neil: (tried dodging the question) Accha pehle yeh to batao... friends ke saath meeting kaisi rahi?

Mini now had a doubt.

Mini: Tumne abhi tak dinner nahi kiya na?

Neil now had no choice but accept it so he nodded.

Mini: Kitna late ho gaya hai but dinner nahi kiya tumne abhi tak... itne thake hue bhi lag rahe ho.... chalo mere saath...

She took him downstairs and fed him dinner herself.

Mini was continuously scolding him and he was lost in her while eating.

Mini: Sun bhi rahe ho?

Neil gave no reply. She understood that he is again lost in her.

She shook him.

Mini: Neil?

Neil: H?

Mini: Meri itni daant ka ek word bhi dimaag me nahi ghusa na?

Neil: Nahi... mera matlab.. suna na maine...

Mini: Kya suna?

Neil: (excuse) Yahi ki time pe kha lena chahiye...

Mini facepalmed.

Neil: Kya hua?

Mini: Main tumhe tab se yeh bol rahi hu ki overall apna dhyan rakhna chahiye... jaise abhi tum day dream kar rahe ho na... yahi chalta raha to tumhe bhi mujhe hi sambhaalna padega.... Such a kid you are, Neil Oberoi!.

He smiled at her and took the plate from her hands and fed a morsel to her.

Neil: Tumne bhi to theek se nahi khaaya na... Tumhe bhi to mujhe hi sambhaalna padta hai... Such a kid you are too, Mini Madam...

She smiled.

Mini (while eating) Ha toh.... itna nahi kar sakte tum mere liye?

Neil: Mana kab kar raha hu?.... I am happy in taking care of you.... 

Mini smiled.

Neil: Now go to sleep.... You are looking much tired.... travelling ke baad rest nahi mila na.

Mini: Tum bhi so jao... aaj itni safai ki hai... thak gaye ho... rest to tumne bhi nahi liya.

Neil: Hmm... but relax to ho gaya main... tumhe aaj uss room me dekhke alag hi sukoon mila aaj... ab soch raha hu... vo room lock nahi karunga.... jab tak hum hai yaha saath me.... 

Mini: Taaki tum ab phir apne ghar ko apna feel kar sako?

Neil: Hmm... 

They kept the plates in the kitchen and went to their rooms to sleep.

Next day, at noon,

Mini was still sleeping in her room while Neil was in the kitchen.

Mini woke up and realised she has slept till much late.

She came out of the room rubbing her eyes and saw Neil preparing lunch in the kitchen, facing otherside.
