I knocked on my brother's door eagerly. I waited for him to open the door but I didn't know how long more I could wait.

Rohan and I came up with a perfect plan. We stayed up all night trying to figure out every single detail of our plan.

We decided to execute it tonight since it was my birthday tomorrow. It was the perfect excuse to get him out of the house.

It was mu birthday but I wanted to give him a surprise. What will be a better surprise than getting him together with the girl he has feelings for.

I told my brother to take me out for my birthday dinner a day before so we can cut the cake at midnight.

What he didn't know was the cake was really Ruhi. Rohan and I planned for him to bring his sister to the restaurant I was taking my brother.

We would pretend that they casually dropped by for dinner. My brother's door opened and he stepped out, ready for my birthday dinner.

"Look at you all handsome" I boosted his ego, forgetting his ego is already sky rocketing. "When am I not?" He asked with a smirk.

He walked towards the front door. "Which restaurant are we going to again?" He asked as we stepped out.

"It better be a good one" He warned. We sat inside the cab that I had called beforehand. "It's a good one bhaiyya" I told him.

"You know my relationship with food" He said. I snorted. "Yes bhaiyya I know, food over anything" He smiled proudly and looked out the window.

"There better not be other people" He said. We were about to reach the restaurant. "I hate having to meet people"

I knew that but I also knew he was going to love meeting the people that were coming. My phone buzzed and I rushed to view my notifications.

I made sure to hide it from bhaiyya as discreetly as I could. I had texted Rohan when we had left the house so he could plan on leaving his place with his sister on time.

We needed to make sure they reached after we did so our plan doesn't flop. "Who you texting?" My brother caught me off guard.

"Oh uh n-no one" I mentally slapped myself for that response. My brother definitely knew something was wrong.

Before he could ask any questions, the cab came to a halt. "Here you are" We stepped out of the cab that had stopped right in front of the restaurant.

"Oof this is a good one" My brother looked at the restaurant, satisfied with my choice. "And you're paying for it" I said with a smug.

He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and led me to the entrance. "Table under Suhana Khan?" The man looked through his sheet and traced for my name with his finger.

"There you are, right this way" He gestured to the glass doors. The cool breeze of the air conditioning blew onto us and brushed our hair away from our faces.

"This way" We were led to our table and sat down. My brother looked around, impressed with my arrangements.

"Alright sis this is pretty dope" He told me. "Learnt from the best" I said. Bhaiyya was the best at picking restaurants.

It made me really happy to know I was going to make this day special for him. "Shall we order?" He asked. I nodded with a smile.

I watched him signal to a waiter. I quickly looked over to my phone but there were no messages from Rohan.

A waiter came up to us and handed us the menus. While my brother looked through, I took the opportunity to drop Rohan a text.

He didn't reply me and I started to wonder if he was going to make it to the restaurant. "Come on Sue it's your birthday" My brother said when he noticed me texting.

I quickly put my phone into my bag and hung it onto my chair. "Sorry sorry" I apologised. "Did you find anything you like?" I asked him as I opened my menu.

"Yeah a couple of items" He told me. "Everything looks great" I nodded as I looked through. "Sue?" I turned when I heard Rohan's voice.

He was standing behind me with his sister. "Rohan" I smiled. "What're you guys doing here?" I asked.

"Oh just out for some dinner" Ruhi answered. "Oh well us too" I said as I looked back at bhaiyya. His eyes were fixed onto Ruhi and I smirked at how smitten he was.

"It's my birthday tomorrow so bhaiyya's taking me out for dinner" I told the siblings. "Oh that's so sweet Aryan and happy birthday Suhana" Ruhi said.

"Thanks" My brother mumbled without looking away from her. "Uh happy birthday Sue" Rohan said making my brother snap out.

He cleared his throat. It got a little awkward so I decided to break the silence. "You know it'd be really nice if you'd join us" I offered and bhaiyya immediately agreed.

My brother informed the waiter to put two extra seats to our table. I patted the seat next to me. "Come Rohan" He gladly took the offer.

My brother got up and pulled out a chair for Ruhi. "Thank you" Ruhi sat down and my brother sat back into his seat next to her.

Rohan and I made sure to include our siblings in every conversation to make sure they talk to each other.

It was working quite well since they were laughing and bonding together. "It's so cool how our siblings happened to be friends just like us" Ruhi pointed out to my brother.

He took a sip of his drink and nodded. "And what's even cooler is you guys showing up to dinner at the exact same restaurant" He said.

"It's almost as if all this was planned" He simply said. "Yeah it does seem like that" Ruhi added. They both looked at us at the same time.

Rohan and I were taken aback by how easy it was for them to figure this out. "You two wanna tell us something?" My brother asked.
