Sadaf: Oh, let's think.

Khalid: Sadaf?

Sadaf: Oh, yes yes please. I'll have a medium Sadaf.

Khalid: What about you, Sajid?

Sajid: Whisky, please Dad. With water.

Sadaf: Well. Here we all are.

Nadia: I can't believe that we're really all together again.

Nadia: Now then, it's a secret!

Khalid: Here you are.

Sajid: A drink!

Nadia: Oh, and we managed to get hold of some of that wine you liked so much.

Sajid: Not that lovely rose you brought back from Province?

Nadia: Yes. You both said you 'd never tasted anything so delicious. Do you remember?

Sadaf: Oh yes, it was lovely. Oh, it is good to be here. Peace and quiet at last.

Sajid: It's certainly nice to get out of that poky old Lahore flat for a change.

Nadia: By the way, the space from right at the top of the house. It's got a lovely view over the country side and gets lots of sun in the morning.

Khalid: Well, here's to you.

Sadaf Sajid: Yes, and to you. Cheers.

Khalid: Now then, how are you both? How are you settling down in Lahore?

Nadia: Will you want a hot water bottle?

Sadaf: Not for me, thanks Mum.

Sajid: We never have one since the last one burst. No, it did really?

Khalid: Well, you can tell that Nadia's glad to see you. She's determined to spoil you. Hot water bottles and all!

Khalid: What's that?

Sadaf: Each, something's burning.

Nadia: Oh no! The dinner!

Sadaf: Oh dear!
