As I sat alone in the waiting area, I realised Anika was the only person I couldn't imagine living without. She shattered all the damn walls I had built around my heart. I was so deeply in love with her.

The next couple of days were a whirlwind of activities, I had to manage everything from the flowers to the guest count for the upcoming anniversary party.
Despite the chaos, I was having a blast – I absolutely loved organizing this kind of event. Tonight was the night of the party. Usually, I avoid attending the parties I arrange, but this family insisted, and they were just so adorable.
I started getting ready. Since it was a party and not a formal event, I had to dress appropriately, not overdoing it.
I decided on a simple black Patiala suit. The colour looked amazing on me, and I liked how it turned out.

I put on a hint of makeup, applied eyeliner that turned out perfect, and added lipstick. Silver jhumke completed the look. Every girl loves those.
I realized I need someone around to snap a picture of me. Others are so boring, so I usually end up taking my own photos.
I didn't really know many people at the party, so my plan was to greet them quickly and make a swift exit. By 7 pm, it was time to head out. The party was scheduled to start at 8 pm, so I would be there on time.
I slipped into my heels, which were a minimum of 4 inches – what can I say, I'm short. At 5'3", people practically use me as an armrest.
Booking a cab, I left my place and arrived at the venue in about 40 minutes. I was eager to see the elderly couple's reaction to the setup. When they walked in, their expressions were absolutely priceless.
The atmosphere was festive, everyone seemed joyful, and that's when I knew I'd chosen the right career path.
After exchanging pleasantries and spending a bit of time there, I sensed someone's gaze on me.
When I turned to see who it was, it was him – the only person who seemed to be at all the same events I attended. It's uncanny, really.
He was dressed in a navy blue suit that he managed to make even better looking. He had this way of owning suits and enhancing them.
