Pragya shrieked seeing what he was doing now.

P: What are you doing?

"This is his right? I saw it in the wardrobe so I thought of throwing it away."

P: Stop it! You give it to me now.

"Why? It's just a handkerchief and it looks old too."

P: Please give it to me.

"Teek hai....." he said in a confused tone and passed it to her.

She sighed in relief and said: If you see any of his belongings or anything else please don't take the decision yourself to throw them away.

"I was only helping to keep the place I stay out of mess and rubbish."

Pragya angrily replied: Your thought on old things being rubbish is rubbish.

"Excuse me?"

P: You heard it right. Things getting old is a natural process. Even we humans get old, does that mean you will throw yourself out?

"No but....."

P: I don't want to talk to you further.

She says and was about to leave when he said "I am sorry!"

She left and he was left in some thoughts.

Lalitha who had been noticing all this managed to catch her alone when she was holding the handkerchief close to herself.

She looked away while Lalitha said "It's lovely...."

P: I need to tidy up your room.

Lalitha "Don't change the topic. This handkerchief looks like you passed it to Abhi. Am I right?"

Pragya in response shook her head as no.

Lalitha "Don't lie. It's clearly written on your face from the way you spoke to him."

P: Haan ji but.....

Lalitha "I would love to listen how and when you gave Abhi this."

Pragya smiles and says: I never gave him. He took it from me and have been using it until now.

Lalitha "He took it? But tell me how he took it."

Pragya then tells how he took it from her.

A: You're nowadays weird.

P: Weird?

A: Ya. Why are you using a lot of tissues to wipe your mouth?

P: When did I use a lot of tissues to wipe? I have my own handkerchief and I only use that. Didn't you see?

A: Nope. I only saw you using tissues.
