 Shot One 

Omkara was driving through heavy Mumbai traffic. He was going to attend a party thrown by his childhood buddy Jay to celebrate the startup of his new business. Jay had invited all his college friends but still the crowd was mostly because of his own family members and relatives including both the close ones and far ones.

Omkara reached and found the hall filled with plentiful of guests. The most popular band of the city was hired to perform.

Jay spotted Omkara and moved to greet him. Omkara congratulated him.

"Thanks omkara. Bahut der laga di, I was waiting for you" Jay said starting the conversation.

Omkara explained about the traffic jams and asked an excuse. He met with his old group of friends of college time. They all had met after so long so they became engrossed in their conversation.

Meanwhile Jay was called by his father to get introduced to some renowned business personalities. He moved from there. Omkara got a drink for himself and was moving towards his friends when his eyes caught a glimpse of a pleasant face in a corner of the hall.

Omkara just stopped on his place as such. In a corner a girl was silently sitting on a sofa eating ice cream. She was so much engrossed in the ice cream like she doesn't has anything to do with the party and the guests. Just beside her a group of girls were chatting merrily but she had no interest to join them. She seemed lonely in the hall filled with guests, but she was happy.

Omkara was staring at her totally lost. Suddenly the girl finished her ice cream and she got up from her place. When she looked towards the guest her eyes met with omkara who was staring at her dreamily. The girl threw a glance at him and moved from there.

Now omkara came out of his trance and started thinking whether she just looked at him. He moved ahead to find her among the guests but she was nowhere to be seen.

He was searching her when Jay came to him.

"Kya baat hai omkara? Kuch dhundh rahe ho tum?"

"Han actually wo ek... Omkara abruptly stopped as he spotted her standing alone near the curtains and slowly tapping her foot on the floor enjoying the music.

"Jay wo ladki kaun hai?" Omkara asked pointing towards that girl.

Jay looked at the girl. "Wo...are wo Dad ke kisi dost ki beti hai."

"To wo is terah se akeli kyun khadi hai? I mean main kab se dekh raha hu na kisi se baate kar rahi hai na kisi se mil rahi hai, apni hi duniya me hai wo to" omkara said staring at her.

"Actually wo bechari chah kar bhi yaha kisi se baate nahi kar sakti." Jay said sadly.

"Kyun? Gungi hai?" Omkara asked surprisingly.

"Are nahi nahi, gungi nahi hai. Darasal language problem hai. Use humari language nahi aati?" Jay told.

Omkara was confused, "language nahi aati kyun kahi bahar se aayi hai?"

"Han, wo India ki nahi hai? Use Hindi nahi aati" jay told.

"To English to aati hogi?" Omkara asked.

"Nahi wo bhi nahi aati."

"To kya language hai uski? Kaha se aayi hai wo?" Omkara asked curiously.

"Wo na Torocco se aayi hai aur use bas waha ki native language hi aati hai." Jay said.

Omkara stressed on his brain, "Torocco? Ye kaun si jegah hai. Maine Morocco suna hai. Africa me koi nayi country bani kya? Meri GK thodi weak hai."
