When Adam woke back up, it was to the sound of Preethi's frustrated groan. He rubbed his eyes awake and asked confused, "What happened??"
Preethi had her head buried in her bag with a very exasperated expression. She kept fiddling around searching for something in each and every compartment in her bag. In the commotion, she did not even realize that Adam had woken up and had actually asked her a question. In her state, she seemed like she was just about ready to tear the whole bag apart.
That's when Adam intervened and pulled on her hands and asked once again, "What happened?? What are you searching for??"
"My keys… I think I did not bring them!!" Preethi at last relented and answered.
"So, ring the bell then…" Adam answered confused.
"Well, nobody is at home. Charan took the kids over to Shreya's and my mum and dad won't be home until morning!!" Preethi answered gloomily.
