But decided to use little,and a black liner to add dramatic emphasis to her eyes.A dust of gold eye shadow on her lids,a touch of dark red lipstick that matched her dress,and she was ready.
The Kapoors lived in one of the big houses thar Eric pointed out to her on her first day.It was ablaze with lights:little bowls of oil with rags for wicks,lined the sides of the drive.They flickered and flared all round the house,for Divali,as well as being the Hindu New Year,is the festival of light.
Their hostess,together with Doctor Kapoor welcomed them,wearing a dark blue chiffon sari embroided in dimante,palms together in Indian greeting,saying "Namastey,I'm so glad that you could come Doctor Davies.Happy Divali to you both."
When it was time to eat,the ladies were called first,"Western Influence I feel sure,but I'm all for it." Tolu whispered to Isabella,who being very hungry by this time was only too willing to join the queue that was forming into the dinning room.She was handed a plate and cutlery by the maid.

Interesting story. But it would be nicer if you make the updates a bit lengthier.

"I've never seen anything like it.It all looks so gorgeous I don't know where to start," Isabella said to Tolu who was right behind her.
"Just follow the other ladies round and help yourself as you go dear."
Tolu pointed out some of the differebt dishes.It was a colourful spread with three different kind of curry:a green curry with lots of green peppers in it,a red curry with tomatoes and red peppers and a white curry with yoghourt.
"The white one is y favourite" said Tolu,taking a liberal helping,"and I love her youghourt salad to take the heat of the curry away.It is always so beautifully seasoned,as well as having the usual tomatoes and cucumber in it."
Guided by Tolu's more knowledgeable hands,Isabella's plate was soon piled up with some familiar and unfamiliar dishes,despite her having taken a modest amount of each.
"I'll never get through all this," Isabella said,as they helped themselves to a glass of wine before making their way carefully back into the living room.
