"Stop it," she ordered me. "Come again?" "I said stop it. Stop..." she snatched my phone and closed all the tabs; she loved doing that all time. "Hey, no fair! I never stop you from ogling over Durjoy's pictures! Besides, she's cute, and you know that." I wish I hadn't said that. She got up on her feet, threw my phone back at me and shot her best defense, "At least he looks good! Look at your Savi! That swollen nose, that round face and those bewitching eyes!" I wasn't backing off now. "Yeah, right. Just be glad his writing has improved, else--" "Else, what!" Her fierceness made me retreat. "Else...nothing. What could I possibly do?" "That's right!!" And she exited the café. The waiter arrived with our sandwiches and Mountain Dews just then. "Don't worry, sir. Even I think Savi's cute, even if her books aren't that good," he said, winking. I nodded with relief, "Thank you!" ...and I got back to surfing through her pictures after he left. "Don't mind Richa, she's just jealous," I said to her images, like an online creep.
