Mahni's day began with the ringing of her alarm clock. She stretched and got out of bed, starting her morning routine with prayers. After a refreshing bath, she headed to her closet to choose her outfit for the day. She selected a beautiful black sharara, a white choli, and a vibrant turquoise dupatta.

As she applied a layer of lip gloss, her mind suddenly shifted to the presentation she had to give at university today. She felt a wave of anxiety wash over her, but there was no time to dwell on it.

Downstairs, her family gathered for breakfast. Her brother Omar was in a hurry, urging her to finish eating quickly or risk being left behind since the driver had gone to drop Zara at school. Mahni looked at her mom with puppy eyes, prompting her to intervene, telling Omar to buy her some vegetables on his way back.

"But Mom, the driver can do this. I'm going to the hospital, and you know that," Omar said.

"Yes, I know. I don't need it until evening. I want to make vegetable biryani and kofta curry because your dadi is coming to visit," Mrs. Hamida said.

"Mom, are you for real? Dadi is coming to visit us?" Omar said, smiling.

"Of course, she's coming for your wedding," Mrs. Hamida said.

"I will have a lot of fun with Dadi," Mahni said excitedly while eating her breakfast.

"Nooru, over-excitement is not for you. I'm serious, I'm leaving you," Omar said in a serious tone.

She finished her breakfast without uttering another word. She grabbed her backpack, said goodbye to her parents, and headed outside with her brother.

Mahni arrived at campus on time and as she stepped out of the car onto the bustling campus of Karachi University, Omar gave her a peculiar look.

"Nooru, why did you close the door like that?" he asked.

"Bhai, please stop. I've grown up now; my name is Mahnoor! Also, bhai, don't forget Saif bhai can't do everything alone!" she said with a smirk. "So get going; he's waiting. Also, don't forget the veggies!" She made a playful pout and headed into the school, leaving Omar looking at her.

As she entered the lecture hall, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and freshly printed handouts filled the air. Her friends, Iman, Aliya, and Sana, were busy preparing for the presentation with other members, Jamal and Kabir. Mahni took her seat and began doodling, drawing a cartoon of her brother and writing his name with a grin.

"Wow, bhai, you look good!" she thought to herself, lost in her own little world.

A few minutes later, the professor came in, and soon it was time for the presentation. Mahni's heart began to race as she stood up with her group. She felt a surge of fear, but then she looked at her friends, and they smiled at her, making her feel at ease. They all stood up from their seats and headed to the stage.

The presentation began, and Mahni's initial nervousness melted away. She spoke confidently, her words flowing smoothly as they discussed their topic and showed some slides. The audience complimented her, and her group members also spoke one after the other. Soon, the professor announced that they had scored second place, saying he was impressed and encouraging them to keep it up.

Mahni beamed with pride, feeling an overwhelming sense of accomplishment. Her friends hugged her, grinning from ear to ear.

"That was amazing! We won!" they exclaimed.

"Hey, why don't we go and celebrate our victory?" Aliya suggested.

"Yeah, you're right! Bills on me!" Iman said.

"Iman, I want ice cream," Mahni said.

"Hey Jamal, Kabir, join us! You're now part of the group. Don't worry, we are cool girls," Iman said, crossing her arms.

"Thank you, we are grateful to join your group," Jamal said, smiling.

"Shhh, the professor is looking at us. He might reduce our score. Let's wait until after this lecture," Sana said.

"Okay, bookworm," Mahni said, teasing her.
