Tall, slim, dark brown eyes and thick black mane- that was Janvi. The kind of girl that guys look for. But at the moment she was looking into Vishal’s deep black eyes and he was looking into hers. ‘Hosh walon ko kya khabar bekhudi kya cheez hai’, played in the background. The coffee in both the cups on the table had turned ice cold from piping hot. It was like a dream.
