Vicious Best Friend

20. Inayat

"those girls who have partners can come with them and others can pick the chits . Names of all single boys have been written on them" a guy announces as the couples walk towards the stage .

"Come here " archit speaks and I walk with him outside .

Zara smiles and takes my hand .
"What ?" I'm clueless when she gives my hand in someone's.

Ishani's brother kavish .

"Go, go" she pushes us towards the dance floor while he smiles looking at me. Zara took my phone and God knows what they are planning .

"They'll send that video to your Mr I'll never show you my face again " kavish chuckles and I instanly turn my head towards Zara who is recording a video.
I immediately grab kavish's hand and we walk out of there .

"What are you doing Zara " I take my phone to find that she uploaded a story with the #moving on #I deserved better .

"What did you do !!! " I yell as kavish's phone rings . I look at the screen with Zain's name flashing on it .
He declines the call and then Archit's phone rings.

"Ignore him guys " Zara giggles.

"We're going to play a game, come on " she grabs my hand and takes me towards a room .
Abhimanyu, crystal , kainat and Devansh are already here . I , Zara, archit and kavish join them .

"Where's ishani " I ask and Crystal speaks " She has probably gone to sleep after my brother terrified her . Poor Ishani , I just hate kiaan"

"What are we playing " kainat asks .

"We'll spin the bottle and the one towards whom it points will have to kiss anyone " Crystal claps her hands.

"I'm in " archit sits near the table and Zara slaps a hand on her forhead " too excited aren't you ?"

"This is ridiculous " I sit there as abhimanyu spins the bottle .

Archit and abhimanyu desperately wait for it to stop at them but the bottle picks kavish .

"This is going to be interesting" Crystal speaks but abhimanyu pulls her back.

Kavish turns his head to the girl sitting next to him , kainaat .

"No ---n-not me " she smiles awkwardly while her fiance is busy looking at his phone .
Sometimes daivey is good for nothing.

"Wait I'll make it more interesting " Zara gets up and brings a hair straightener. She straightens kai's styled hair and her hair are just the same length as mine . After that Zara uses a red spray to make her hair look like mine .

"Now do it " she sits in the opposite direction to click a photo .

Kavish holds kai's face and instantly daivey storms out of the room .

"Kiss ,kiss , kiss " they all cheer and this is ridiculous if they are making her look like me from behind just to send the picture to Zain.
Kavish kisses her on the forhead surprising us all while Crystal whines "what a bore "

"But I got what I needed " Zara shows me the pic and it literally seems like I'm in a liplock with kavish . That sounds so uncomfortable.

"He's gonna kill me " kavish chuckles.

"I sent it on the group " archit speaks and Zara takes his phone, then she shows it to me .

"I wanna see " Crystal sits near me and we all look at the phone.

Archit : *sent a photo*
Archit : how's it ? [@Zain_Oberoixcoco]

Kavish : for me it was super fun.

Zain : what the actual fuck !!!! I'm gonna kill you motherfuckers and you asshole dissappear from the planet before I dismantle your features . Nobody would be able to recognize you kavish. DON'T TOUCH HER !!!!

A few butterflies dance in my stomach but the message vanishes from the chat .

Zain : • this message was deleted •

《 Zain left the chat 》

"He's unbelievable " Crystal voices and I return Archit's phone.

"I'll go sleep " I leave the room as tears pool in my eyes.

[After 6 Months]

"I can't believe this is happening " Crystal speaks as I settle the pleats of her baby pink long skirt.

"She didn't even tell us earlier about all this " kainat voices .

"Isn't it fast " I ask and they both go completely silent .

"You'll get to see him " Crystal smiles.

"As if I Care , it's been a whole Year . I won't be affected by his presence . " I speak picking up my bag and stroll out of the room .

"You spent hours on this makeup , don't you dare cry now inayat " I tell myself walking down the stairs.

Archit and Zara are getting engaged . We are at ishani's home and we spent the night here . Now the engagement is at Archit's home where obviously I'll get to see a certain someone after a whole year .

We all wait for ishani downstairs because she's taking too much time to get ready.

"It's shocking that someone is taking more time than you crystal " kai chuckles.

Crystal takes another selfie and speaks "Only Ishani can do that " .

We all turn towards the stairs when we hear tapping of heels .
She's dressed in a black saree with a very pretty diamond necklace . She has left her hair loose and there are a few strands on the front . She's seriously a freaking goddess .

" I thought we were matching " Crystal pouts.

"Sorry bestie next time , I got late because it is kind of difficult to get into this thing" she speaks and we all laugh .

When we reach Archit's home which is a freaking palace my heart begins beating like a drum . I'm hyper aware of my surroundings while my hands are holding the fabric of my peach coloured Indian style long skirt .

"Ohh these pretty faces suggest me you girls must be Zara's friends " a beautiful lady speaks strolling our way .

"And your classy appearance suggests us you must be Archit's mom " ishani chuckles.

"Ishani my baby , you'll always be the same cutiepie" she hugs ishani .

"And oh my god are you really dressed in a saree , your mom will faint when she sees this "

"Trust me aunt , I didn't want to " Ishani giggles .

"Wait ! Ohh my God are you my Zain's Inayat " she looks at me with wide eyes."because of the red hair and baby face , I know "

Zain's Inayat .

His mom called me his !

I hug her and she cups my face "I'm so gonna scold him for making you wait all these months "
She speaks and I shake my head . She's just so sweet and I think she doesn't know he left me forever.

Instanly Someone voices from behind her making my heart freeze .
"Mom , here are the flowers you asked-----f-for "
