So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames.

I spot Aarna and Veer with our bags talking to someone. As soon as they spot me they come to us. Gushing over the lion all the way to the clothing store.

He goes through the different kinds of clothes hung in the hangers.

" I Don't wear these types of clothes. " I say when he takes out a flowy dress that has daisies on it.

" I know you have a style. " He says winking at Me.

" It's not about style jeans and t-shirts are comfortable. " I say. It's been years since I bought a dress. I don't have any specific dislike towards other styles but I like mine more. My wardrobe is full of different jeans mostly baggy and a size bigger and a loose T-shirt that hides my thin frame perfectly.

" You can try something different for a day. " He says handing me out the dress.

" I will not," I say putting up a fight but he pushes me all the way to the changing room.

Now that I am locked inside with mirror on all four walls I finally wear the the dress. The dress is pretty with puffed sleeves. Heam reaching just below my knees. Why will it not be perfect the amount on it speaks volumes.

In the last seventeen years, I spent on this earth never in the world, have  I imagined myself in a changing room with a dress a boy chose for me. A Boy !!! Who is my boyfriend and is currently waiting outside.

" How is it? " I say to Madhav who is sitting in the waiting area. And Aarna is nowhere to be seen. I was expecting her instead of him

" It's.... beautiful. " He says after a long pause scanning me from head to toe. His gaze burns my skin with every lingering pause. I never felt this way. The way I can't describe but it's the way he looks at Me. Only him.

" But I am not wearing it. At least not today. " I say trying to distract him from myself. To stop him from stop looking at me. So that the goosebumps on my skin stop. Even my heart isn't listening, beating like a drum in a historic setting at the homecoming of warriors.

" You Look like...... full moon peaking from the clouds after a rainy day and endless nights. " I hear him say when I turn around. My steps flatter at his words making my heart skip a beat.

"Nice try. But the moon has a lot of craters. Even has a volcano on it. Let's not get me started about how rough and dim the moon is without its light. " I say turning around and leaning against the door. It's taking all my strength and courage to keep a natural expression.
