Sweetness of Love- Part 2

He was surprised. He had read the name (Dhriti Ranjan) on the CV several times. He thought he was dreaming. Why did their destiny bring them together when they had parted ways long back? God and his work! He was the one who separated them and now he was bringing back again.

She had made sure that she looked very professional in her dark cotton sari with 3/4th sleeve blouse. Her hair was tied back into a bun. She wore black bindi and kajal. She didn't apply any make up.
