"There are people who take the heart out of you, then there are people who put it back.........................."

On reaching the destination, Shaurya arduously managed to park his car at a suitable place along the sidewalk.

Manjiri roamed her eyes all around, the banquet hall's parking lot was congested. She could see numerous cars lazily positioned everywhere, that was both sides of the road.

"I suppose we are late."

Manjiri mentioned as she saw plenty of people entering and exiting the entrance of the hall. Shaurya just followed her gaze and then unfastening his seat belt, he casually stated

"Nah, this much of crowd is pretty normal."

"Oh ok!"
