Scene 4

Ranjani: recovered ?
Srikanth: I think yes
Ranjani: Well, when are you going back?
Srikanth: I will be in Cuttack two weeks and will be visiting Chennai again for IITLecture and and will be leaving by the end of this month.
Ranjani: All scheduled..?
Srikanth: Yes and I amm sorry for what...
Ranjani:- Oh it's fine. It is better it is out. I din expect to meet you here. But I was happy to see you as well - infact after a long time. I have always respected you and it was just pleasure to be in your class and to able to listen to you. May be...perhaps if you had told me what you felt then, instead of telling me when we had to work together, I would have definetly felt very bad about you. But when you revealed that you were not able to overcome that feeling after five years, I was surprised, because I did not expect it and was also happy that I was able to explain and make you understand in a very compatible way.

(TTR checks Ranjani's ticket)

Srikanth: may be yes!. But I never had that feeling when I met you n the school, possibly because of the responsibilites of a visiting professor, though I always wished I could talk to you. And also because my intellectual relationship with my wife was not so good as I told you then. But when we met again....I knew what it was  and was forced to tell u, swallowing my pride ..
Ranjani: That which I always wanted you to face..... (faces him), but never in this circumstance.

(both of the m remain silent for a while)

Srikanth: Ughhh! Well, If you feel Cuttack is near to Kolkata... I extend an invitation to come to my sis's house and moreover - Gita-Govind was written By Jayadev in Orissa, If I am not wrong
Ranjani: I will try... but again you    remain so elusive.....  din know you were interested in Gita Govind.....
Srikanth: Nor did I expect from you  an article on Cern and Cyclotron in The Times
Ranjani: Oh - did you read it?
Srikanth: Yes! I did
(both of them - sleep) - The Train next evening will reach Orissa


You can attempt  to write Scene 5 ( I have given a hint - with that you can develop-  - I will give two  different ends to the play (two scene (5)) - one mine and one yours. and also suggest a title. I will choose the best one.

So happy writing.
