As the morning sun cast its golden hues through the parted curtains welcoming a new and beautiful day, Karishma's eyes fluttered open, only to be met with a pounding headache. Gently pressing her temples, she tried to sit. "Amaa! itna sar kaahe phat raha hai hamara" 

Amidst the haze of her weak awakening, fragments of the previous night began to filter into her consciousness. Her eyes fell upon her palm, something was written over it. The memories of last night- her visit to Misha's, her anger, tears, breakdown, conversation with Aman and his wife, and then... the newfound revelation danced before her mind. 

"FUCKKKKK!!! NOOOOOOO!!!" She screamed unable to comprehend her feelings. Navigating through the fog of confusion, she was staring at her palm without blinking. *I LOVE HASEENA* 
"Yeh kaise..." Her head was still hurting. "Kya hum... sach mein...?"

 But then images of smiling Haseena, their conversations with unspoken images, stealing glances at each other, her own jealousy, her protectiveness, their cute moments intertwined with her thoughts and the puzzled pieces of heart began to align in a new direction and everything started making sense. 

A smile, hesitant yet undeniable, curved her lips. With each passing moment, the blush of awakening love painted her cheeks. Feelings started swirling within her like a beautiful dance of butterflies fluttering their wings. 

"Ho hi gaya pyaar" She mumbled. 

As she lay there, her smile grew more, lightening up the room as if universe itself was whispering her love. "Unse hi hona tha... thik hai ab jaisi bhi dikhti hain, bardasht karna hi padega" 

She dug her face into the pillow, blushing profusely. "Arree yaarrr... I love her!!" She laughed like a maniac. 

"Nahi humko abhi rejection ke baare mein sochke mood kharab nahi karna hai... wo tab ka tab dekhenge" She said to herself as soon as the thoughts of rejection crashed her mind. 

But the next moment she realized about the witnesses of last night. Throwing the duvet away she rushed out to Aman's room and started banging the door. "Bhai! Bhabhi!" She called restlessly. 

Shaba pushed Aman away from her who had been cuddling with her whole night. She yawned hard as she get up and made her way to the door. "Karishmaa!!" She spoke raising her eyebrows as she opened the door. 

Karishma was staring at her with furrowed brows and grumpy face. Shaba analyzed her face and asked, "Kya tumhe sab yaad hai?" 

Karishma nodded once carrying same expressions. 

"Aman! Aman! isko sab yaad hai!" She screamed excitedly. 
"Kya kahaa!! Yaad hai??" Aman asked excitedly. 

"Shhh! Shhh!" Karishma said urgently, "Shor nahi kijiye aap log!" 

"Thik hai baith kar baat karte hain" Shaba pulled her inside and made her sit. 

"Bhai, bhabhi..." 

"Arreee Karishma..." Shaba cuts her, "Thankyou kehne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai, tum to apni hi ho"

"Haan Karishma it's Okay. Shaba ke liye yeh baayein haath ka khel tha" Aman seconded her.

Karishma glared at both of them. "Humari baat suniye aap log, please Maddam sir ya kisi ko bhi is baare mein kuch nahi boliyega"

"Kyu?" Both of them asked simultaneously.

"Abhi ke liye yeh baat hum teeno ke beech rehne dete hain naa..."

"Kya tum Haseena ko khud yeh batana chaahti ho?" Aman asked.

"Hum? Hum kaahe batayenge? Unko khud samajh mein aa jaayega na... aur woh khud bhi to bol sakti hain humko" Karishma said.
