“Where had you been all night, Kim?”, asked Rhea.
“I was with Eric”, replied Kim.
Isha and Rhea gave a dubious look. The murmurs disturbed Kim, but she did not care to clarify.

“Kim… Come join us..This memory game is fun..”, said Vallerie.
There was no response.
“Let her be, we’ll begin”, said Isha.
“Let’s take names, this time”, said Rhea, “Anisha we’ll start with you”.
“Umm…Anisha”
“Anisha, Mihir”, said Isha. Anisha smiled.
“Anisha, Mihir, Rhea”
“Anisha, Mihir, Rhea, Isabella”
“Anisha, Mihir, Rhea, Isabella, Isha”
“Anisha, Mihir, Rhea, Isabella, Isha, Jai” said Isha.
“Anisha, Mihir, Rhea, Jai, Jai, Jai…..”, went on Vallerie.
“You’ve lost the game,” said Isha, “Val is out”.
