She furrows her eyebrows in confusion and her eye sight follow the hands up to the biceps, white shirt, a warm smile and finally a pair of baby blue eyes.

She smiles at Eros while holding one edge of Gramophone to her side.

" Please pack this " she says politely looking at unknown person in front of her. Eros stifle a laugh and his fingers tightly wrapped around other edge of Gramophone.

"Do I look like a salesman to you ?" He replies and chuckles at Sienna whose eyes widens and she feels ashamed with her cheeks flushed.

"Um-m I am so s-sorry I-I thought you-u, by the way being salesman is not a bad thing-" she says but is cut of by Eros who coughs and gives her his charming smile.

"Ahem! I didn't come her for lecture but for the gift" he says and tries to pull and leave but stops due to firm grip of Sienna on other side of  Gramophone.

Both starts pulling the Gramophone to their side, one time his side and one time her side, after all both were stubborn and wasn't going to give up. This continues for three four time.

Eros fakes his smile controlling his frustration thinking that the girl in front of him is easy to fool.

" Sorry mam, we started on a wrong foot but I really need this gift for a special person to be gifted on a speak occasion-" he said while giving her please expression and puts more pressure on special word but is cut off by Sienna.

" I was also going to say the same thing to you that this gift is for someone special and I have to gift it on special occasion" Sienna says with her eyes widen and gives him a big smile, she puts pressure on special word.

This make Eros expression sad and his eyes like puppy.

" Huh! I-I saw it first " stammers Eros pulling Gramophone to his side.

" Listen, I saw it first so it's mine " Sienna replies politely pulling the Gramophone to her side.

"Huh! Is it a local bus seat that you put your stuff on it and the seat belongs to you" he argue and pulls the  Gramophone back to his side.

"I don't travel in local bus so how will I know" Sienna says shaking her head and claims the Gramophone completely out of Eros grasp and covers her arms around the small thing so that the man in front of her couldn't snatch it.

Eros looks around in confusion thinking what to do when suddenly he gets an idea, he gives an awkward smile to Sienna and runs.

" Excuse me?" Sienna asks politely and looks at where he is going, puzzled and tensed that what will this man do to snatch her gift.

"Excuse me?!" She calls and runs behind him.

Eros quickly stops in front of billing counter, removing card from his wallet and handling it to the old shopkeeper.

"Uncle, please quickly prepare bill for the Gramophone" he said politely and smiling like lunatic.

" Ok" the shopkeeper says and starts to prepare the receipt.
