'Wow.' All my friend's mouths dropped open. We had entered my house. I didn't get it. What was so special about my house. It was just a normal house. 'Priya, I had forgotten how your house looked! Have you got it renovated?' Alia asked. 'Yeah. But its still the same old design with old furniture and stuff! Your house is better!' I said. Alia looked at me slyly. I blushed.

'Aloo!!!(nickname for alia')' she said. Alia grinned at her before saying 'mummy!' And running and hugging her. They both seemed immersed in their convo , and the rest of us is ours.

And he should, he was in the army after all! He was a retired army officer! I ran to him and hugged him.
