Abhi comes and sits in the car. Karthik observes her dress, anklets , bangles, fossil watch , necklace , ear rings and finally gets to see her pony tail.

Karthik: Abhi, turn to your right. Look at that statue!

Abhi turns right and looks out for the statue.

Karthik pulls her hair band and throws it in the back seat. She turns around.

Abhi: What now? (Frowning)

Karthik: I asked you to keep your hair loose, didn't I? ..

Abhi: Come on Karthik, you can't tell me what to do and what not to! You are not my husband!

Karthik: wow, so you'll at least listen to your husband. Good to know....

Abhi: why? Ofcourse,. He'll be the only one I will surrender to!

Karthik: surrender? You will surrender to him? Seriously?

Abhi: Ofcourse, I'll be going to the place he chooses, wearing the dress he likes, putting on the jewels he buys, plating my hair as he says!

Karthik: Like you did now? Which means.....

Abhi: Oh hello Mr. Karthik, don't get any ideas. I am a princess who is still in search of her prince charming!

Karthik: By the way Abhi, my friends call me Prince! Even Arvind does ..... A few girls too!

"Blind and tasteless they are!" Abhi says folding her hands against her body , looking at the other side.

Karthik: By any chance , are you being jealous ?

Abhi: Jealous and me? No chance!

She thinks: Come on Abhi, you should not show all your feelings on your face. See how he is making fun of you . You can't be jealous of him . Why don't you try to make him feel jealous if he likes you!!!

Abhi (patting her shoulders): wow Abhi....

Karthik puts his hand on her cheeks, sets her hair back on ears and asks.  " Are you alright? Why are you speaking to yourself?"

Abhi : Nothing. Did we reach?

Karthik: yeah. Almost there.

They reach 12th floor in which Karthik booked a special table for them. It was the only table in the entire floor. Karthik goes to the table ,drags the chair back and sighs her to sit. She comforts herself and says:
Karthik ,order something .I am damn hungry.

Karthik: Why are you always hungry?Your partner is gonna die feeding you!

Abhi frowns at him.

He calls out for the waiter.
Waiter comes with a bouquet in his hands. He gives it to Abhi and asks " what would you like to have madam?"

Karthik: Pasta arrabbiata with white sauce. Can you please bring it fast?

Waiter: Sure sir.

He bows to them and goes away.

Karthik thinks: Why are they over reacting? I didn't ask them to greet with a bouquet!
