He was awakened only when Jankee put her hand on his shoulder and looked into his eyes. He said, "Oh yes, it's very late night, we have to wakeup early morning tomorrow." She was about to turn, Abhiram said, wait, and combed the garlend of Jasmine (Mogra) and Cestrum Nocturnum (Rat Rani) in her long, black, brownish hairs.</FONT></EM></SPAN></P><P align=justify><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">To be continued...</SPAN></P><P align=justify><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA"></SPAN> </P><A href="http://tracker.icerocket.com/project.info.php?pid=14977&amp;rid=pbl"><IMG src="http://tracker.icerocket.com/s/14977.png" width=0 border=0 heigth="0"></A><SCRIPT type=text/javascript>var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
