They all were happily munching the dishes when Rhehan suddenly looked up at Kareem again. "Kareem! I heard, Cheryl is your new female lead in the movie! How did it happen?"
Kareem had almost choked the food in his throat listening to Rhehan"s unexpected question. "I don"t know myself. Just yesterday night I recieved a call from the director, telling me about the change."
"The director? The news said, she was somebody close to the crew in the film. Do you know who it is?" Rhehan looked at the boy carefully.
"No! I do not know! We had a media apperance today evening, that is where I met Cheryl for the first time. So, no idea! Kareem spoke up, not looking at the man.
"Hmm! Be careful of the girl!" Stefen spoke up suddenly.
"Yeah! Don"t worry! I l know how she used you! Don"t worry!" Kareem smiled looking at Stefen.
Stefen smiled back, looking at Kareem.
"Oh! Wait! I just remembered something!" Elizabeth stood up immediately and rushed out of the dinning room.
"What"s with this spontaneous lady! Always running around!" Xio Lee frowned, taking a sip of the wine.
"Get used to it dad!" Kareem chuckled, raising his gla.s.s of wine.
Elizabeth returned back, giving a small flat box to Rhehan. "This is for you! Open it once you go home!"
Rhehan smiled looking at Elizabeth. "Thank you Miss Lodge!" He knew the gift might be something related to his past, so Elizabeth signalled him to open it later. Kareem frowned again, looking at the two.
Soon the family dinner was over and everybody was about to leave. "I will go and drop you in my car." Xio Lee looked at Kareem and then at Rhehan.
"Ahh! It"s ok master! I can go alone. Please don"t bother." Rhehan who was talking to Rose, looked at Xio Lee.
Xio Lee gave a stern look to Rhehan and Rhehan sighed. "Ok!" He bid farewell to everybody, thanking them all. Stefen and Vicky also left the house, while Elizabeth too wore her overcoat, ready to leave.
"Come Kareem! Let"s go!" Kareem who was busy over his phone, looked up from the screen at his mother. "Ahh! Mother, I have a night shoot. I will have to go film city, right now!"
Elizabeth and Lillian looked at Kareem, with suspicious eyes. "Ohk then! I"ll see you at home." Elizabeth stepped out of the house, and was bidding farewell to everybody. Kareem too left in his car, while Xio Lee and Rhehan sat together in the other car.
"Look at your gift now!" Elizabeth knocked on the car window. Rhehan pulled down the mirror, looking at the box. "Can"t wait!" He rapidly opened the box, revealing a small photo alb.u.m. "It"s a photo..."
Rhehan gaped in surprise at the scan report of somebody. He looked carefully and realised it was his picture, when Elizabeth was expecting him. "Oh! Wow!!!"
"That was seven months of pregnancy!" Elizabeth looked happily at the black and white scan picture.
