Kavitha Khan kept a polite smile plastered on her face as she listened to Aditya Thakur regale her parents in formal and flowery Hindi about his storied career and education.

"You needn't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Khan, I have some insider information that Sirius Software will soon have troubles. I myself have already secured a position in the Department of Energy, and I'm friends with the dean at Harvard Medical, I can get Kavitha out of that fortress as you call it, and we'll be able to have a happy life away from all that controversy," said Thakur, flashing his most winning smile.
In his ethnic formal suit, he looked less 2nd generation Indian American as he claimed to be, and more like some sleazy Indian politician, who was seeking asylum from India after absconding with ungodly amounts of money.
