106 I like you

"Hello.I am Henry Davison." He said with a smile.

"Hello." Dolly replied and sat on a chair and waited for the game to be started. Henry took a chair and sat near her. He wanted to know more about her. He had to get her green signal before proceeding. Because John said strictly that , he would never listen to anyone else,other than his sister.Bcause it is her life.So,she should get the chance to choose her life partner herself.

When John and Henry reached near Mrs Smith and Mr. Davidson,Mrs Smith informed them the decision of Mr. Davidson about Dolly and Henry. He chose Dolly as the future granddaughter -in -law.

As they informed John about the relationship between Henry and Dolly,John said stood there silent.He did not utter a single word.

"John .Say something.Are you not happy that your childhood friend is going to marry your sister?"

"Grandma,it's not what you are thinking.I would be the happiest man in the world,if Henry marries Dolly.But ,I do not want to impose our choice on Dolly.She has the right to select her future life partner.We should not force her to marry anyone.If she is happy with the decision,then I am also ready"

"Yes grandpa.I am also thinking same way.First we should know each other.Without knowing me,how she could she accept?We should give her time ."

"One week.Henry I am giving you just one week.If you can not persue her within the week ,you have to marry the girl,which I chose for you in city D.Each time you escaped from marriage, by making some silly excuses.This time I am not going anywhere.I will stay with you here to monitor you as well as help you to persue her. "Mr.Davidson said with a smile.

"Ok grandpa.I will not leave this time. I will stay in this city for whole week."Henry replied.

"Mr. Davidson,you are going to stay in our manor for one week.Then only they both could keep in touch with each other."Mrs.Smith said.

"Grandma.We should stay here in the hotel .It will not good,to live in your house now.May be Dolly would not like it."Henry told this time.

" Yes ,he is correct.We should stay in a hotel.We can meet Dolly anytime if we want."Mr.DavIdson replied.

"Ok as you wish.Now go see where is she.You should try to be her friend first." Mrs Smith adviced.Henry nodded and look for Dolly.

When the game of the party started,Mrs Smith saw Dolly standing in a line for the game,she got a chance to introduce both.She knew Dolly would reject Henry's proposal,if he tell her directly.So,she whispered 'all the best' in Henry's ear and pushed him to stand in line of the game.

"You are Dolly?Correct?"

"Yes.But how do you know me?I think that I have never met you."

"Yes.You are correct.We never meet before .But now we will meet fraquently."

"What do you mean?"

Before Henry could answer,there was an announcement of starting the phase II of the game.

"Ladies and gentlemen,you already have your partner.Now you have to go to the adjacent room and collect some flowers from different baskets kept there.Remember ,you have to collect the flowers of same colour and same type.You have to collect the folwers with the help of your partner.This is actually a introductory round as many of you do not know your partner.So,during this time you would be able to know each other." announced the anchor."You have to keep all the flowers in a basket and bring to this room.The first ten couples who can fill the basket with flowers will go to the next level.Your time starts now.'

"What a silly game!" Dolly said and forwarded to the next room. Henry followed her.On reaching the next room ,Dolly's eyes widen in shock.

"Oh crap.Grandma ,you are really somethingm.You surely know how to make someone confused."

The room was filled with verities of flowers.There are some big baskets where all the flowers are kept together.The colour of the flowers are almost same.It was not easy to separate one flower from another.Dolly looked at the other couples. They are already started to sort out the flowers.She looked at Henry.He was staring her without blinking.

"Are you here to staring me or play the game?" Dolly asked angrily.

"Both." Henry replied with wicked smile .Dolly stomped her feet in anger and went near the flowers.She started to sort out the flowers .Henry too came near and helped her. Within five minutes their basket filled with the flowers.

They hurriedly reached the hall.There were nine copules reached there already.So ,they were tenth and last pair.

"Congratulations .Now you are in next level.In this level you have to sing a song.The song be sung together.You will not get any time to practice the song.Just come here and sing a song.The best five pairs,who can complete the song without stopping will be selected for next level.Now pair number one please come here and sing a song."

All the pairs tried to sing well,but for audiance, it was a comedy show.They had to decide quickly what to sing.The song should be familiar to both members of a pair.Because they can not stop in middle.But most of the pairs could not complete the song.

Henry selected the song "I like you" ,which Dolly was also familiar.When it was their turn,they both started,

I like you,like you

You know.

The clouds are floating

The birds are flying

Everything looked like new

I like you,like you

You know

Yesterday I saw you

In my garden

Like you were telling me

To embrace you

Is that a dream

Is that something

That I can not tell you

I like you ,like you

You know....
