"You look beautiful", said Mishi standing beside me in front of the mirror.
"Thank you", I replied with a smile, running a comb through my hair. After a few strokes, I decided to leave it opened and applied a strawberry lip balm on my lips.
Stepping back from the mirror, I struck a few poses and felt satisfied with my appearance. Turning to mishi, who was smirking, I arched an eyebrow in question.
"Why are you staring at me like that?", I asked, making my way to the bed to put on my black heels.
"What does even that mean?", I questioned, slipping on my heels.
"Shahmeer will be head over heels for you", she said with a cheeky wink.
My face turned red as a tomato at her words, as I found myself blushing uncontrollably. I face palmed myself hoping to hide my embarrassment.
"Stop it, Mishi". I mumble, standing up from the bed.
"Gori sharma gayi", she teased, onto the hem of my dupatta like the typical heroes do in Hindi movies with their heroines.
"Aisa kuch nahi hai", I protested, pulling my dupatta back from her grasp.
"Yeah, yeah", she rolled her eyes, not buying my denial.
We were getting ready for Maani's 4th birthday party, and my in-laws would also be attending. That meant that Shahmeer would be there too, and I couldn't help the fluttering feeling in my stomach at the thought.
I haven't spoke to him since our engagement, and seeing him face to face after all this time made me nervous. At least Mishi was there to lighten the mood with her teasing and banter. I couldn't help but laugh at her antics, and it helped me to ease my nerves. With a final glance in the mirror, I took a deep breath and braced myself for the party.
Mishi and I made our way downstairs, discussing the latest gossip in our neighbourhood. As we entered the living room, we were met with the heartwarming sight of my grandparents sitting on the couch, ready to head our for the party.
"Meri ammu boht pyaari lag rahi hai", said nani ammi with a beaming smile, giving me a sweet peck on my forehead.
"Thank you", I replied, and turned to nana, noticing how he couldn't take his eyes off nani ammi. "Well, you also look beautiful. See, nana abba can't take his eyes off you", I teased, making nani blush and playfully hit me on the back.
"You are becoming a brat", she said with a chuckle. Ammi's voice interrupted our banter, reminding us about the time.
"Shall we go now? It's already 10", she said, bringing us back to the reality. I let out a sigh and turn around, ready to head out for the birthday party.
"Let's go have some fun!", I exclaimed, grabbing mishi's arm and leading the way, the excitement in my tone of voice.
