25 year old Indian born girl sitting at a Coffee lounge, sipping her Cappuccino looks out of the shop and what she finds? what made her smile? she had no idea what day was that her curiosity increases due the loud voices raised in the lounge. She looks at them and sees group of women's sitting there at the office hours and surprisingly almost all are in pink and she thinks again what day it is and she makes an attempt to know whats special about the day. Best way to understand whats going on in the world is just log in to your Facebook and she did the same swiping her Apple phone switches her Facebook aap. By looking at the posts she is tagged and few of her friends status she says OHH !! hooo!! its International women's day..!!
Switching to reality she locked her phone and looks at the her limited addition watch that her dad had gifted her on her 18th birthday. she says 11 am and where is my gang ... glancing at the door of the lounge with coffee in hand, they are always late huh!! her phone vibration brings her back to her coffee table.

She said one word "Oky". and she keeps the phone on table and start off with coffee and she calls the waiter and orders some sandwich.
She again looks at the women's table and by there talk she figures out they all are college friends and now working in different companies in Bangalore and all are married with kids etc.,

But she connected the dots and she found Vidyut is the guy her mother was speaking and on other side Vidyut also guessed may be divya is the same interior designer his mother had mentioned.
