27 A New Love Story 9

Rahul wanted to book a private theatre all to themselves, but Preeti insisited on going to a normal one because she wanted to enjoy the atmosphere. So Abhi thought it is ok if they go to a very busy theatre where there is a lot of crowd.

After nearly half and an hour of their arrival the movie has started and after five minutes Abhi entered the theatre and sat in an empty spot between Shriya and Preeti. They reserved corridor seatsof VIP section and Shriya sat on the end of the row and Rahul next to Preeti. The latter two enjoyed themselves playing, chatting and commenting ignoring the distrabance they are causing to the love birds beside them. Rahul liked Preeti very much and spent each and every minute with her. It is an animatedchildren's movie with a young high school girl with superpowers as the lead character.

Shriyaconncentrated and enjoyed the movie to her full extent while Abhi kept his hand on hers and kept stealing glances at her while she is laughing at the funny jokes on the screen. She didnotfeel any unease with his touch and is calm about it.

Inside a doctors roomin a hospital.

Gouthami is staring at her phone and is a bit irritated. Rahul had completely ignored her calls eversince he went to India. Once in awhile he would update his facebook status enjoying himself with a little girl playing, dancing and other things. she thought "what is he doing there and who is that girl with him?" and she is also irritated to hear that Abhi fell for some ordinary girl and Rahul is actually supporting his brother with his relationship. She always thought that class and status should be equal for two people tobe together. But why this Rahul never thinks so. Most of his friends are of low back ground and he treats them for dinners and parties. She rarely met with his friends because she thought that they are low lifes. She felt irritatedand put away her phone and went back on rounds in the VIP ward.
