In A Temple

A girl is praying closing her eyes.

"shankar ji, thank you..!! you have listened to my prayer. He has passed the exam with good marks. I can't tell you that how much happy I am for him. So according to my promise I have brought laddoo (sweet) for you. no no...these laddoos are not for you. I have made them for your son..!!

"Gauri bitiya, you have come mandir early today. you seem to be happy also, huh..!"

"eyy gauri..!" a girl calls gauri from behind. her hand is on hips. she looks angry.

Gauri(in mind): shankar ji, please save me otherwise my hitlar didi will eat me today..!!

Pandit shakes his head smilingly and goes from there.

Anika puts her hands on her chest.

Anika: gauri, I am listening..

Anika glares at gauri. she looks down.

Anika: do you know how much worried I was?? I get up and search you everywhere but you..you were in mandir na then how could I find you in the house?

Gauri: anika didi, sorry..I..

Anika: I know you are becoming very..very selfish now-a-days..!!

Gauri smiles seeing anika's antics.

Anika: now why are you smiling?

Gauri: if there wasn't you, don't know what would happen to me?

Gauri hugs anika surprising her.
