But he was stunned like he was hypnotized by jer kholed eyes....her one hand was supporting her chin while by her right hand she was holding that fork spoon losely.. She was playing with it unknowingly.... Her eyes were not concentrated on the plate instead it was somewhere else.... He followed her gaze and found a squirrel which was trying to take that half piece cake from that place.... It was near the tree and when ever the squirrel comes near that cake piece someone pass by making that squirrel again climbs the tree... It was happening again and again... He find that funny... But she was looking at that squirrel with that much concentration like she was at that squirrel's place..... His eyes slowly observed her.... First that intoxicating eyes which adored with khol adding more intensity to her already beautiful eyes...... There was some khol smudged  below her lower eyelids... He doesn't know she didn't it intentionally or happened unknowingly...... But he know one this he is goner there itself... That call was long forgotten.... Without his permission his legs Voluntarily went near her and sat before her... Now she was looking at that squirrel but this man is looking at the siren who is in front of him.....he was in awe in seeing how expressive her eyes..... Without looking at what that squirrel he can say what's is happening there by her eye movement and expression.... His PA was talking but who is listening it..... She finally smiled and her eyes shined that means that Squirrel finally took that piece and here she took his breath away without even trying..... He saw that place for conformation... Yes that squirrel was now eating that peice of cake.... He to smiled himself..... At least that squirrel was tried hard again and again to get that cake peice but here this girl already took his heart away just by existing how.... While he was wondering.... He heard.. Uyir :Excuse me....... Hello.. Its her voice he came out of his daze and looked at her... Jayadev : Yes... What happened... Uyir : Your phone.... Jayadev: oh...
