Rays of sunlight forced him to open his eyes. He saw Catherine staring right at him, with a bewitching look on her face. She was already awake, and her eyes demanded lust. Akash lay bare-chested, comfortable in a fluffy blanket. It was 1 A.M when he mutely climbed up the tree and jumped inside her window, which like always, was open.

    'Well, that would make you a good friend, but it would make me an even better detective if I got it out of you.' And they both chuckled.

    'And how exactly are you going to do that?' she asked, taunting.

    'By warning you to brace yourself for round two.' He announced, and jumped on her, she laughed and surrendered herself to him.
