10.

Arsalan was deeply engrossed in typing away the pending emails that needed his approvals and he needed to finish replying to them before he gets busy again with the wedding preparation that his mother made sure to involve him in. He didn't notice when Asmara entered his study "bhai!" she called him out startling him with her loud voice.

"Asmara!" he glared at her and she just laughed at him.

Ignoring her Arsalan went back to his work while Asmara sobered from her laughter as she walked to his table and stood next to him peeking at his laptop just to irritate him.

"Kya hai Asmara? Kya chaiye jaldi bolo aur jao," Arsalan said without sparing her a glance.

"Hume kuch nahi chaiye agar pata hota toh kuch soch k aate lekin koi baat nahi filhal aapki madat chaiye thi."

"Busy hu mai abhi Asmara bad me."

"Haa workaholic bhoot pata hai koi nayi baat toh hai nahi" she rolled her eyes at her brother but then a glare from him made her mumble a quick sorry.

"Dekhiye bhai agar aap chate hai k hum yahan se rafa daafa ho toh jaldi se humeri madat kar dijiye."

Ignoring his sister he continued with his typing he knows she will say anyway even if he said he doesn't want to help her.

Meeting with silence, Asmara decided to ask him anyway so she took her phone out of her jeans back pocket unlocking the phone she immediately went to the gallery and opened the album of the photo that she'd saved. "Humne yeh do pasand aaya hai aur hum sab yani mai, Abeer aapi, Zoha, chachiyan aur Ammi plus Zaid bhai choose kar hi nahi pa rahe hain yeh dono me se koi ek, toh last option aap hi bachete toh aap hi choose kardein in dono me se koi ek."

Arsalan again ignored her thinking that she is wasting his time. It was her way of asking people to choose her outfits and then, at last, she will go with the one that she liked for herself.

"Bhai aap sun bhi rahe ho?" Asmara shook his shoulder to get his attention.

"Kiya hai Asmara?!"

"Choose kariye in dono me se koi ek. Jaldi"

Sighing he decided to give in and looked at the photos she was showing him. He frowned. Why is she showing him the bridal dress? What does she have to do with it? Arsalan looked up at her and raised his left eyebrow asking what it is? In return, he gets a pointed look towards her phone telling him to look at the phone, not at her face. Rolling his eyes at her he looked back at her phone and decided to choose one.

"Yeh wali" after seconds of thinking he made his decision and chose the dress.

"Yay! Best choice bhai!" Asmara jumped at his good choice and Arsalan was surprised to get such a reaction from her. Was he this good at such things? He never knew that. Faking a smile he nodded at her sister.

"Hogaya na ab? Chalo jao kaam karne do mujhe" Arsalan asked her to shoo away and she instantly obeyed him but not before kissing his brother's cheek.

"Asmara!" Arsalan shouted her name in an irritated tone but she was already out of the door laughing at him.

Shaking his head at his sister's antics he went back to continue his work.

"So?" Asmara's cousin sister Zoha asked her who was waiting outside the door the whole time trying to eavesdrop but could only hear Arsalan's irritated voice while calling Asmara's name.

"What did I say?" Asmara asked with a smirk on her face.

"That you will get him to choose it?"

"And I did that even though he had been a grumpy lion the entire morning. He is my brother after all I know how to get things done by him" she smirked once again at winning this. Proudly she marched downstairs with Zoha to let her mother know about Arsalan's choice.
