The scene: a gynaecologist's waiting room in a hospital pouplar with Indian expats.
A young couple waiting for the doctor along with another girl who appeared to be the husband's sister .
Some pensiveness, nervous smiles and intermittent chatter amongst the three.
At one point the faces of the trio lit up with pure joy and all traces of their earlier restlessness vanish for the next couple of minutes.The wall mounted TV was on 'mute' but there it was the story of the Double Hundred.
Such has been your effect on Indians no matter time and place.
We are fortunate to have you on our side and we ask for nothing more.
