"What are you doing here?" I questioned.

"Vanya ma'am asked me to stay here" Aarav grinned saying this.

Ab aa gaya hai toh kabab main haddi toh zaroor banega'

(Now that he has arrived, he will definitely do third wheeling)  

(A/N: don't know how to translate it😅)

'Why did he even meet her at the first place'

"Bhai, chale?" Mihir called out. He greeted Aarav, both making their way out afterwards.

(Brother, shall we?)

"Ab chalega ya yaha hi khade rehne ka iraada hai" Abhiraj mocked.

(Now will you come or do you intend to stay here only)

"Kyu apni wali ko dekh ke bina raha nahi jaa raha kya?" I taunted him back, moving out.

(Why? Can't stay without seeing her)

"You won't actually believe-" Viransh's voice faded as I saw my sunflower making her way through the crowd, wearing an off shoulder white sparkle dress that reached above her knees, with a slit on the right side. The dress clinging to her figure, shimmering under the lights. Her long hair swept in a low messy bun, loose strands framing her face, giving an elegant look. The hairstylist indeed did her job right. Her hair flowing as she walked forward.

'Am I imagining or everything's in slow motion right now?'

She looked perfect.

An angel.

A goddess.

All the adjectives in the dictionary were less to describe her beauty as everything failed in front of her.

As she walked forward, all heads and eyes were drawn to her stunning presence. The way she laughed on something made me want to stop the time and memorize the beauty in front of me all day, all night, every hour, every minute, infact every fucking second I want her to be in front of me, and just keep smiling. I didn't even realise when I started to smile like a fucking teenager.

I was so mesmerized by her that everything was blurry and only she could be visible in the whole crowd. The moment slowed down just like in films, when she suddenly looked towards me and smiled.

Hayyeee. I am dead ......fuckkk.....I am so done now.

"Arey muh toh band karo uncle," making me come out of my lala land when Abhiraj grinned looking in my direction, mostly mocking me to which I gave him a bombastic side eye.

(Hey, shut your mouth, uncle)

As soon as I moved my gaze towards my sunflower's direction she was gone. Where did she go? In just a matter of five seconds she disappeared. I moved my gaze on the entire lawn but I couldn't find her.

"Hello gentlemen" I knew who that voice belonged to, the one and only Marco Russo.

Marco Russo, an Italian mafia leader in a partnership with Abhiraj. The one who is obsessed with someone who Abhiraj would never approve of.

"This is my fiancé, Kaira" he said.

"Who's the beautiful lady next to her?" I looked in the direction where sunflower stood, who passed a small smile.
