Shahana was a person who loved fashion to the core. She's the kind of person who is always updated with the new trends and has a good taste in clothing and style. Naturally, she chose fashion as her career. Though the firm she works in is not the most famous, it is still a good firm with great profits. So, if you're going to shop, take Shahana with you.

''Look at this, this is so cool.'' Asmita exclaimed fawning over a skirt.

''You already have that one.'' Prachi deadpanned.

''But it is a different shade of blue. This one is cobalt.'' Asmita protested.

''Makes little difference. ''Prachi said.

Before both of them could continue arguing about that skirt, Shahana interrupted them.

''Hey Prachi, is that Aryan?''

Prachi followed Shahana's gaze and found the mentioned boy roaming confused in the women's section.

''Yeah. He told me he's here with Mishti.'' Prachi said.

''Who's Mishti?'' Shahana asked.

''Wait! First of all, who is Aryan? Fill me in.'' Asmita said.

''The guy over there in a black tee.'' Prachi pointed out.

''Who is Mishti?'' Shahana asked again.

''Ranbir's sister.'' Prachi answered and waved at Aryan when they made eye contact.

Shahana immediately pulled her hand down. ''What do you think you are doing? I can't stand Ranbir and I wonder how is sister is going to behave if she is Pallavi Kohli's daughter.'' Shahana said.

''It is rude to judge people based on their parents.'' Asmita chimed in.

''To me she sounded decent.'' Prachi said and smiled briefly when Aryan came closer.

''Hey!'' Aryan greeted awkwardly.

''Where's Mishti?'' Prachi asked.

''Huh. Oh, yeah. She is in the trial room.'' Aryan covered up.

Prachi nodded and introduced him to Asmita. ''So this is Aryan. My cousin brother and Aryan, this is Asmita. My sister.''

''Sister?''Aryan repeated.

''Yeah, I am Shahana's sister. So we are all sisters. ''Asmita said as if that explained everything.

Aryan turned his attention to the mentioned girl. ''I did not know you had a sister.'' He said.

''Uh- it never came up before.'' Shahana said looking over his shoulders, as if trying to find someone.

''Didn't you want to see Bindu Nayar's new editions?'' Prachi asked Asmita who was clearly confused.

''Who is Bin-'' Before she could complete Prachi interrupted her.

'' Shahana can you give company to Aryan until his friend returns. It'll be rude to leave my cousin bored. But Asmita really wants to check them out. So I'll go with her.'' Prachi said and dragged Asmita away.
