ARYA KANNA

After wearing a wonder woman costume to save my big brother's friend from a party and a girl, now I really need a party dress to wear.  I can't go to party with just jeans and t-shirt or I now really wants to buy a new dress.  

While dreaming about a new dress reality him me up with Akash's question.  "Will you be my fake girlfriend?" he asked again.

After saying yes to save his day, I've no choice but ask Alexa's help who's dying to go shopping with me.  "So, today's girls day out!" Alexa announced as she dragged me into Starbucks.

"Why are we here again?" I asked.  She was supposed to help me pick a dress.  But here we were standing in a line to pick up our drinks.

"It's going to be a long day, girl.  We need our batteries right?" She winked and turned to take out our orders.

While browsing dresses she started leading me to the children's section.  Ahh... I was totally surprised when she told that wasn't children section and it was a party wear for women.  What the...  "I can't wear those dresses.  It's way too shorter than Adhithya!" I protested.

"You mean, your cousin?  Oh I'm sure this dress is way big to him." she huffed.

"Ok, Alexa I like this but I need a dress not to impress my fake boyfriend but that girl who wants his freedom from.  She wants to believe that he really likes even though we are not.  You got that?"  

"Sure..." she rolled her eyes.

"Here," she placed bunch of dresses in my hands and pushed me into the trial room which don't have any doors or lock, only a screen for god's just screen.  

I changed into one of the sleeveless dress which only shorter than my knee long and the embroidery crystals dazzled as the mirror reflected.  I've never wore this short dress in my life at least not after when I turned fifteen.  If my mom sees me in this dress Alexa would never get a chance to meet me alive because I'll be dead.

"Arya, are you trying the dresses or making one?  Come out girl." Alexa shouted from outside.  

"I'm going to come out please don't say anything if this looks ridiculous on me."  I warned her.  I clenched my hands to control myself from getting nervous as I walked out of that room.

"I think this looks hot on her, she don't need to try any outfits.  I'm going to pay for this.  And we are good to go." I heard a male voice talking and that voice was definitely not Alexa's so I tilted my head up to see the person who was sitting on the couch, leg wide open like he owns this fucking world.  

I gasped when I saw Max sitting over there.  I wasn't expecting that.  "Ahh...  Can you tell me what he is doing here?" I whispered at her ears.

He cleared his throat.  I didn't gave my attention to him.

Alexa let out a nervous chuckle before saying, "I called him.  Men have better taste than we have in our dressing sense.  So I asked him to give him."

"So you called your boyfriend." I gave her a look.

"Aarya I need to tell you something.  He's not my boyfriend."

"What?" I was totally surprised by her answer.  She was the one who said she's into him and she gave him her number and chatted more often and flirting with each other.  But she's saying he wasn't her boyfriend."

"Ahh...." she started to say something until some big dude bumped into her.  And his girlfriend who looks gorgeous turned into an angry bird and started cursing Alexa who did nothing but standing still and looking at her with aww eyes. 

"You better watch your eyes on yours, cause I'd tore you into pieces if you ever walked into him, bitch." that girl warned Alexa who only staring at that girl and grinning.  That girl's man standing behind her and watching the show.  I hate guys like him.

I turned to Max who don't care about the shit going over here and gave him a help look as he averted his gaze like he don't care.  I twitched my mouth for that and shook my head.  I should've know that he wasn't going to help anyone.

"You better watch yourself.  I'm not into nasty boys, more into handsome girls like you, kitten." she smirked.

That girls angry face turned into pink and sorry, as her boyfriend dragged her from there.  Alexa watched her fading away.

Then she turned towards us.  "What were we saying?"

"You like girls." I voice sound surprised.

She nodded.  "Please don't look me in different way.  I'm still the same Alexa who'd always save your back." she averted her gaze from me like I might judge her.

Who am I to judge her?  I won't do that.  "Finally!  I'm so happy for you.  I'm so glad I'm having you as my only girlfriend in New York." I winked at her.

She fixed her gaze at me and smiled as she gave me a tight, long hug.  I saw Max staring at me, I closed my eyes to get away from him.

Then she pulled herself back and said, "As he said this dress looks good on you." 

"Really, but I liked that red_" I was cut offed when Max stood from his couch and put his hands to his pockets and walked towards us.

"We really need to go.  If we are late we'd miss the best part." he protested.

But I wasn't even finish my shopping.  Ahh god, who called man to come here and interrupt my shopping day.  I don't go out very often even sometimes like this when I go out there would some cases like him makes that as an insane day of my life.

I sighed and walked into the trial room, changed back into my regular dress and walked to the bill counter.  When I was about to give my card he called me out from nowhere, "I paid." he shouted showing us the bag we'd purchased.

I walked to him and I snatched the bag from him and saw the bill as my mouth went 'ooo'.  "$150?" I surprised not in a good way though.  It's almost eleven thousand Rupees in Indian currency.  

I took out my purse and checked, but i still only got sixty dollar in total.  I've no other options, I was expecting to buy a wonderful dress for twenty dollars but here I was.  "Thank you.  But no thank you, here take this sixty for now, I'll pay you balance later." 

He looked at me for a minute and gave me that furious look like I did something that he warned me not to.

"Assume it's a gift from me." He smirked.

"No, I can't accept this expensive gift from a stranger."

"Oh, darling we are no stranger for you.  Are we, Alexa?"

"Are we, Arya?" Alexa pouted.

Okay, they all get together and cornering me now.  I've to pay him in a different way then.  
I smiled at them.  They have no idea why I was smiling.
