"This must be Kam then," she said walking towards me with outstretched arms. She betrayed no recognition at all. She came over and hugged me whispered, "close your mouth."
"How was your trip honey," Ramesh said as he hauled her heavy bag and headed towards the steps.
"Trip was okay but I feel like I didn't get any sleep at all. Feel like I was up having sex all night," she murmered doing a throaty impression of a seductress. I winced. Ramesh called out, "Don't be offended yaar she always talks like this."
I started to say something when I thought he was out of earshot but Nita warned me off, with a dark look, which once it had done its job turned into pure innocence. Just as well because Ramesh was already heading back down.
"We have your party to go to tonight, don't we?" Ramesh exclaimed as if he had just remembered it. I noticed that Ramesh's mannerisms were affected and exaggerated to please Nita.
"You don't mind do you darling. And Kam, you must come too," she said, with suggestive emphasis on 'come.'
"You'll come, na?" she continued. "These parties are usually hajaar fun! You'll meet my boss, a senior partner in the firm, and an incorrigible womanizer."
