Sidhaanth said keeping his bowl when Saana glanced over the clock and noticed it was 8'o clock. She quickly kept the bowl, Finishing the ice cream and stood up.

"Umm...Woh Ab mujhe Nikal na Chahiye!"

She said when Sidhaanth's father frowned and asked her to sit.

"Nahi! Nahi! Uncle woh mujhe Likhna bhi hain Jaake! Toh Isiliye! I need to leave early!"

She said making everyone smile on hee sincerity towards her passion. Finally after a lot of consoling, they all agreed on her leaving. Hearing that Sidhaanth quickly grabbed his motorcycle's keys.

"Thik hain! Mumma Toh main Ise Chodke Aata hoon!"

He said when Saana stopped him.

"Arrey! Nahi...Nahi Sidhaanth uski koi Zaroorat nahi hain! Woh Main yaha se Metro karke chali jaungi! Waise bhi tum abhi Aaye ho Office se"

She said when Sidhaanth huffed, keeping both of his hand on his waist and asked him with narrowed eyes.

"Umar kitni hain teri!"

He asked her while she scrunched her face and asked him.

" Huh?"

"Umaar! Umar kitni hain teri!"

He asked her while She sighed and said him.

"Thirty two!"

"Haan toh Meri Thirty-four hain! Do saal Bada hoon! Abhi Chal"

He said dragged her outside, making everyone laugh on their real life tome and jerry. Dragging nher outside, He handed her the helmet and asked her to settled down. After riding few distance. Sidharth saw a panipuri wala and he immediately remembered their old childhood days. He bit his lips and called her.

"Saanu! Sunna!"

"Haan bol!"

She said with a smile, while Sidharth parked his bike near the Panipuri stall confusing her.

"Chal, Pani Puri Khate hain!"

He said excitingly like a five year old baby. She smiled at him, it was the same excitement which she used to behold a decade back with the name of Pani puri, Chaat and all street foods.

"Sidhaanntthhh! Chal na Paani Puri Khaa ke Aate hain!"

A twelve years old Saana whined to a fourteen years old Sidhaanth. He smiled at his Bestfriend's childlishness.

"Tu Badi nahi Hogi na?"

Sidhaanth asked Saana who was pouting, trying her best to convince Sidhaanth.

"Chal! Thik hain! Aaj Chalte hain 6'o clock! Aur Haan! Mumma ne Aaj Tere liye Special Aloo wale Parathe Aur Raita Banayi hain! Bhulio Mat! Thik hain Phir Chal Khelne Chalte hain"

He said while she chuckled knowing her puppy face always manages to melt him down. She nodded and and then both went to play.

"Oyee! Kya! Soch rahi hain!"

Sidhaanth nudged her when She nodded her head, While Sidhaanth rolled his eyes and asked asked her to stand near the stall.

"Bhaiyaa! Duto Pata Lagaben Ekta Tok tok Jhal Kom!...

(Brother! Serve us two bowls, One will be Less Spicy but a lot sour..)"

"Arekta Akdum Chatpata! jhal jhal!

(Another one will be a lot spicy!"

She said completing his sentence, when Sidhaanth looked at her befooled and laughed.

"Oh My God! You remember?"

"Just like you did!"

She said laughing with him when the Pani puri vendor served them the bowls made up of dried Shaal Leaf. She looked at it, feeling nostalgic the moment she got the bowl of Shal Leaf. This was one such speciality of the City Calcutta, The Pani Puris served in a Shaal Leaf bowl. While the Vendor was preparing the stuffing, Sidhaanth's pair of eyes fell upon Shehnaaz who was seeing the bowl keenly.

"Kya Huwa? Kya Dekh rahi hain?"

He asked her, while She looked at him with a smile on her face.

"No! I mean! It's so nostalgic for me! Like being a girl who got settled in Chandigarh first and then returning to Calcutta after all most a decade and then trying the things which you used to do daily. Like Dekhna! Abhi Yeh Patte (Shaalpata's Bowl) mein Panipuri Khana, then this Kolkata Streets.."

She was interrupted by the Vendor, when he served them the first puri. While she ate the whole Panipuri, closing her eyes. The moment the aroma and the Tanginess of the Lemon water along with the Spices hit her tastebud, a soft moan left her mouth.

"Uumm and this moreish taste of the Pani puri! Dude! I missed Kolkata's Phuchka So much!"

She said while Sidhaanth chuckled the way she described the Paani puri just like how an author Should describe. After few minutes, Sidhaanth noticed the some stuffing was sticking on her lips. He looked at with a small smile and wiped the corner of her lips.
