ANJALI'S POV:

"Anjali" Mom called from the kitchen as I sat on the sofa with Anu.

"Ji mama" I asked still staring into my phone.

"Beta..aaj humare saath chal le na..thodi maadat kara de na" she said.

"Yea Mom par kaha jaana hai aur kesi maadat" I questioned confused.

"Araay...woh tumari Hafza (Shehry's Mom) Aunty ki maadat karni thi...Shehry ki birthday party jis hall mein rakhi hai..waha hi jaana hai" she said.

Shehry ka birthday..oh god..mujhe pata hi nahin tha..uff.

"Ok Mom mein tayar ho ke aati hun" I said going back upstairs.

I got ready and in a few we were already out the house.

"Beta..dhyaan se gadi chalaya kar" Mom taunted everytime.

"Dont Worry mama..aapko kuch nahin hone dungi" I teased her and she smiled.

We pulled up into a hall and I parked the car. As we entered, I saw pictures of Shehry of everywhere and habby birthday signs.

"Come in ladies" the worker said guiding us in the big hall where we met Aunty. We greeted eachother and then Aunty asked the worker to show us a guide.

"Alright. So this is basically the hall where the cake cutting and the dance and partying will take place" she said to the room we were already in. Then we walked over to an exit. The deck was decorated beautifully with waterfalls everywhere and etc.

"Here is where the before party takes place where appetizers and everything else is served." Then we walked back into the hall.

"The place seems nice" I said engaging conversation helping out Aunty and Mom.

"Mama Aunty kuch aur jaana hai?" I asked.

"Nahin beta..Hall acha dikh raha hai...yeh le list. Tu ek bhar dekh le ke kya kya hona hai aur phir isse samjha dena" she said. I quickly glanced at the list.

"Umm okay so....here on this side I guess is where his name should go in those balloon letters.." I said and she took out her notepad.

"Can I know how you spell the name" she asked and I looked over to Aunty.

"Aunty naam Shehryaar ya phir Shehry karwa na hai" I asked her.

"Shehry likhwa do" she said. I turned around to the lady when my phone started buzzing. Shehry was calling. I ignored it and continued talking to the lady.

"OK so S-H-E-H-R-Y" I said and she noted. "The rest you can just design balloons and decoration everywhere" I told her and she left.

Then my phone started buzzing again.

If I didn't pick up, he would be mad but if I did then Mom and Aunty would find out. I sneakily picked it up hiding the name.

SHEHRY'S POV:

"Hello" her voice came into my ears. I looked to see if Hussain was here. Then I spoke up.

"Hi Darling" I said.

"Hey..whats up" she replied. Mujhse aise kyun baat kar rahi hai. Usually toh har baar Hi Shehry Hi Shehry karti rehti hai.

We talked for 1 minute or two and then she said she had to go.

"Chalo ok. I love you" I said and she was about to reply but hesitated.

"I l--" she said but stopped.

"Bye" she said immedietly and I didnt let her hang up.

"Kya hua..I love you too kaho na" I asked her.
