Why don't you stay up here with us. It's a huge mattress, after all." Oh no, I couldn't," she said. "The couch will be fine. It's only for one night." No really," I interjected. "You can stay here, there's really plenty of room. Come on." Well..." she said. "Well..." Aw come on," June said. "We always used to. I reach my face up to kiss you, you merely kiss my forehead. ‘When we get to the door, you need to close your eyes.’ I agree as we walk, hand in hand towards the hotel room silently.

Mujhe ghoorta hua andar ghus gaya. Uske baad Saleem aur last mein Raju mujhe dekhta hua bola mast lag rahi ho. Main muskurate hue thank you boli. Fir woh teeno andar chale gaye. Didi ko dekhte hi teeno ki najre didi par gad gayi. Woh didi ko aise ghoorne lage jese abhi kacha chaba jayenge.Fir hum sab bed par baith gaye. Raju ke hath mein daru ki botal thi. Mere room mein entry karte hi woh bola gilaas aur plates bhi le aa. To main muskurate hue rasoi mein gayi aur gilas ke sath kuch plates bhi.
