WITH YOU!

28. BLUNDER?

AISHA

I woke up with my phone buzzing out. I whimpered, & hid myself in the pillows, wanting to get lost in the heavenly & carefree world of sleep, but the phone rang again, & I decided to shoot the person who's disturbing my sweet morning sleep.

"Where are you?" I heard Sid on the call.

'Hey give it to me!' spoke someone in the background.

"Aisha, what the hell, you left us in the party last night, without informing, & now you're nowhere to be seen." spoke Ash.

"Listen Aisha, if you don't come here soon, there's going to be a huge blunder! Ishu, who was to manage the Haldi (turmeric) ceremony, is still sleeping, & not out of yesterday's hangover, & so is the case with Anny, & Vidhi! All are wasted! Both the wedding planners are busy with the breakfast, & the evening's Sangeet (Music) ceremony's preparations, as haldi ceremony was added at the last moment, so it's our responsibility to organize it. So you've to handle it all, your Auntie is hell nervous, & I've assured you that you'll look after it, & I don't know a thing about this function, so come here in half-an-hour, as ceremony starts in two-&-a-half, & let me inform, nothing, literally nothing has been done by now!" lectured Sara.

"What? Shit!" I spoke, & disconnecting the call, got up from my bed hurriedly.

But as soon as I got up, a severe headache wished me a

'Bad morning', reminding me of the drinks I took last night, which already had become a 'worried morning' after the call.

I went to the counter, had some water, & prepared a strong black tea for me, which seemed to relieve me a bit. But then the memories of last night flashed in my brain. Shit! I was being touched by Sam, then Vivaan saved me, than I tried to k.. kiss him, teased him, then biryani, then drinks, then I praised him, being so touchy, & then gf thing...

Shit! I really messed up this time! But that means he likes me too, I thought & smiled, while hurrying to take a warm shower to calm my nerves.

'He was drunk too when he said so!' reminded my subconscious, & I pouted. How I wish he wasn't drunk then, & really meant it!

'& how I wish you were not drunk enough to behave like a Despo with him!' scolded my subconscious, & I sighed.

But how will I face him now, knowing the scandals I've done, & the blunders I've made last night? What might he be thinking about me? God Aisha, why you always have to be this clumsy! I decided to stay away from him, to avoid any more awkwardness & embarrassment, then it already was! I don't know why I always do something stupid around him?

Cursing myself, I took a quick warm shower, which relaxed me. I wore a white one side off-shoulder top with a black sleeveless inner underneath, & black shorts, with my simple sandals, of course I need to run now, & can't do it in my traditional attires. I applied my kohl, some lip gloss, & leaving my wet hairs open, rushed downstairs, where the ceremony will be held.

"Thank God you came Aisha, please look after it!" spoke Aunty hugging me.

"Aisha, make sure everything goes well!" spoke Nisha, looking worried.

"Don't worry Nisha, you just take care of yourself, we'd look after the rest, right guys?" I spoke smilingly looking at my team, aka friends, & they shouted YES with enthusiasm.

Then we begun with the decorations firstly. The idiots brought white lilies, when everything here will just be yellow, even after I told them. I huffed. While Sara & Vidhi prepared the haldi together, to be applied on the bride & groom's body, plus to get the bride ready; Sid, & Ash were looking after stage arrangements, & I, after decorations, plus supervision work.
