Gulmohar house mein raat ke theek sadhe teen baj rahe the. Chaaron taraf ek gehra sannaata chhaya hua tha, aur bedroom ki dim warm lights jal rahi thi. Sameer gehri neend mein sota hua tha, uska ek haath aadat ke mutabiq Meher ki kamar par tika hua tha.

Achanak Meher ki neend khuli. Uske jism mein ek ajeeb si craving uthi kisi aisi cheez ke liye jiska na to us waqt koi wajood tha aur na hi ghar mein koi dukan khuli thi. Use shehar ki ek purani local dukan ki special rabri aur hot jalebi chahiye thi.
