Please let me know what you think.. :)

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My birthday was going in an awesome way.And I was very happy about it.

Last night after I,Netra,Abha and Mahi settled down to fill each other with the latest happenings,Mahi was the one who did most of the talking.And I could see my suspicion about Mahi and Adi getting confirmed by every additional word that came out of her mouth.

Mahi told us that she was developing a crush on Adi.Now that was a great news!Hearing it, Netra who was sitting beside me,secretly texted Sameer asking him if he and Adi were still together.His reply was yes.So she asked him to ask Adi about his feelings for Mahi.

I grinned at Netra after reading her text.She returned it with a wink.

Thats when we were caught by Abha.And Abha being Abha,insisted on knowing the meaning of our display.

There went our plan in deep blue ocean!

We told her what we had been doing and Mahi hit us both with pillows uttering different classes of profanities.

We ended up in a pillow fight.

At the end, we were so exhausted that no one knew when sleep took over us.

Today morning during breakfast,I got to know that we were going for a dinner and then to a nightclub.

I love dancing on the Dj's beats so when I heard this plan,I kissed my best friends with buttery lips.Just to show them how much happy I was.They voiced their disgusts by their 'eews' but I just laughed.

I was going to lunch with my lovely family after attending my lecture.And even Reva, my all-time busy sister was joining us.Wow! What luck!

Reva is always doing something or the other.If she is not leading her college in academics,she will definitely lead it in sports.Thats how she is.Active.Unlike me, who will prefer sleeping comfortably to practicing the stupid game of hockey in scorching heat.

Anyways,my friends hurriedly left after they had had their breakfasts for it was a Friday and they had work and lectures to attend just like me.

As I was eating my toast,I looked at my dad.Sensing my eyes on him, he raised his head from the newspaper that he was reading and wiggled his eyebrows at me.

'Dad,you and mom haven't given me a gift yet.Where is it?' I asked flashing an expectant smile.

'Ria,we painted your bedroom by your choice the last month dear.' Mom said to me.

'So?I thought you had finally realized that I no longer needed all the Looney toon characters on my wall.And thats the reason you re-painted my room.I didn't know that you people were planning to stick my newly painted room to me as my birthday gift!Moreover,my birthday is today,so you need to gift me today.This is not fair dad.' I pouted.Yeah, I can be immature at times.And I really don't accept excuses,especially from my parents on a special day like my birthday.

'Ria you are not a kid now.Behave.' Mom said sternly.I got up from my seat and began marching towards my room.

'Hey Ria, we are gifting you a new friend.But he will be coming tomorrow.' Dad informed me just I opened my room's door.

'Dad please,I don't like cats and dogs.' I said this and without hearing my dad,went in my bathroom to take bath.

Half of the day has passed now.
