As they got ready to leave the house Surya's phone rang and he was a little surprised to see Tharun's name on it.

Why is he calling me on a Sunday morning he thought to himself.

"Who is it?" Seetha inquired as she walked outside the house to the car garage.

"ahh... it's Tharun.."

Seetha's eyes broadened without her knowledge...

"well.. are you going to pick up" she asked as Surya stared at the phone not knowing what to do.

"don't know why he is calling me at this time. We have a meeting tomorrow morning I hope he is not asking me to do something to prepare for that meeting today"

"hmmm.. just say we are going to the temple... he will understand...."

the phone stopped ringing... and Seetha gave him a look...

"that's not nice Surya..."

"let's see if he leaves a voicemail..."

They got on the car and started driving out the driveway as the phone chimed to show there is a voicemail...

Seetha's heart fluttered for some reason...

Without waiting for her husband she swiped the visual voicemail from Tharun and it started playing on the car speaker...

"hey... Surya, this is Tharun.. sorry to bug you on a Sunday morning. I am new to London and I'm wondering if you don't have any plans we can hang out? call me back if you break free, if you are busy totally understand... so nothing urgent. I am just going to hang out in my hotel room."

Surya and Seetha looked at each other...

"you should call him back and tell him we are going to the temple.... and ask him to join, it will be a good change for him"

Surya knows Seetha gets little irritated when Surya gets possessive.. .he knows how Tharun looks and he didn't want to say no to Seetha.

"ahhh ok, don't know if he will be interested to go... but you are right.. let me offer him"

Surya called him back, Tharun picked up in a second... he was hoping his plan would work to see Seetha again.

"Hey Tharun, great timing we are just on our way to the temple and we can come pick you up on the way home."

"We?" Tharun acted innocent.

"oh yeah, Seetha and I are going together and we can take you with us.... it's a great temple in the heart of London, you will enjoy it.."

"oh thanks man! I was bored out of my mind..."

In few mins.. Surya's car was in front of the hotel Tharun stayed.

Tharun was already outside...

Seetha and Tharun exchanged little bit of a cunning smile as if they planned this.. but things are kind of happening on their own...

Tharun hopped on the back seat...

"wow, your car smells great..."

"I think that's Seetha" Surya laughed...

Tharun knew it was Seetha's mild perfume and he smiled.... he cannot see her face but he can sense she is smiling as well...
