"That's why you should come to the control centre first. Raghav is a stubborn douchebag who doesn't have any idea of what is right. Draupadi won't let him disturb us for a week.", said Aditya as he turned towards Sankarshana.
Aditya, Sankarshana, Kalki and Janu sat on the dining table, sipping coffee. Coffee is tastier on a winter evening with family.
Kalki said, "So, Anu is our trump card. She pursues Biophotonics in my University.", leaning forward towards the table.
Janu, who's sitting to the right of her son, was fast to understand the nuance. She looked up and said, "So it'd be very easy to make her obsessed with Aditya's magic skills."
Aditya said, "That's the whole point, Janu. Once she's inside our plan, we can execute `that'".
Sankarshana asked, "How are we going to use SARaNG on her?"
Janu replied, "Kalki will bring her to me. I'd finish the rest."
Sankarshana looked puzzled. He asked, "How... how can he bring her here??"
Aditya chuckled," Do you think Raghav's son needs a lesson on befriending or convincing?", as he placed his hand on Sankarshana's shoulder. "She'd be here tomorrow".

Kalki brought Anu to his house on his bike. As she walked with him into his house, she noticed the strange bindi that Kalki had on his forehead. She asked, "Bro, what's on your forehead?" Kalki cleared his throat and replied, "My mom says it'll bring good luck. She has many of these. I'll get you one."
Janu welcomed Anu and made her sit on the sofa. The table in front of them had a strip of many such bindis. Anu didn't know that Kalki didn't wear SARaNG but she herself is going to. Anu took one and stuck it on her forehead.
Janu's earbud whispered," Device connected."
Kalki said as he turned towards Anu, "Dude, that looks great on you. It'd be slightly itchy on the first day only. Wear it for one or two hours daily."
Anu looked up from the strip and asked, "That's enough?"
Kalki replied,"Yeah, that's more than enough."
Kalki, Anu and Janu had lunch together while chatting about neutral topics. As she was getting ready to leave, Janu said, "Take that strip with you, Anu. Try it for a week before judging its luck." Anu was fascinated and obeyed happily.
Kalki said, "Lemme introduce you to another member of my family."
