Arranged for you... story ahead!

Part - 8

"Preeti" Naina and Swati rushed towards Preeti who was busy arranging her wardrobe.

"Hey people! Back from honeymooooon!" Preeti teased Naina and Swati while making her way through pile of salwar suit, denim shirt, every colour trousers, a couple of sarees, many traditional wears and everything she had in her outfits collection.

The trinity embaraced each other in a hug all having some or the other grudges towards the man they loved.

Preeti was wearing a smile but her dull face expressed it all about her pain and disappointment. She was a girl who shoved off every challenge that destroyed her mental peace. She did that with all of her heart and never thought about that again she would become happy again for her family, her friends and foremost her inner self.

But that day she was different that day she was just pretending and had never freed herself from the agony. Naina could figure that out easily by seeing her dark eyes. It was swollen and bulged out that happens when you cry for hours.

Nobody asked about what happened in past as they all knew the story there's no point in reviving old wounds. Although they had to discuss about future steps. First of all, Naina asked about Bela and Anand, Preeti informed that they were out cancelling the bookings and went there for requesting a refund of advance.

"Ok Preeti, now, what have you thought to do next" Naina asked knowing that she would've already landed into a decision.

"I'll just fold all these clothes and keep it in the wardrobe like one side for traditionals and the ones I do not wear much and daily use clothes in this closet" she replied explaining them everything pointing out with hand gestures.

Naina and Swati payed heed expecting a serious answer from her. Then realised she was talking about something else.

"No Preeti-" Naina rolled her eyes and got interrupted by her.

"No?" She said profoundly disappointed "okay on second thoughts I'll bulk my cupboard again and seal it so that none of the clothes fall out"

Got a back slap from Swati "oh stupidi, we're not talking about this!" Swati exclaimed.

"We're taking about future" Naina said "and before you say anything let me clarify, YOUR FUTURE" pointing a finger at Preeti.

"Oh that, will continue in the salon where I got the new job and start over from next week. Already had a word with the manager over there" Preeti deadpan.

"But again, that workplace would not be suitable for you dear" Swati said concerned about her friend.

"Look! I have got an opportunity which not everyone gets plus I'll be getting a lot to learn and exposure that I was waiting for and I don't care who the hell is that salon's owner's boyfriend" Preeti said while resuming her folding clothes session. Naina and Swati joined her to clear up the mess.

Naina looked at Preeti proudly. She was happy that how her baby sister has become wiser in her decisions. She never realised how mature Preeti already was until then.

"That's correct" Naina supported Preeti thinking of her home, she realised that leaving the house is not a solution her duty is to keep going despite of Sameer being around, ultimately she belongs to that house.

"Why are you having an irk towards Mitali?" Munna asked as he has met her rarely that too for negligible amount of time.

Sameer passed a devilish grin "you don't know bro come inside" Sameer kept his hand on Munna's shoulder and dragged him inside "She is a complete show off! Like you saw she insisted Ramdhari to let her take the bag but she knew she couldn't and was waiting for someone to take it but she will not say it"

They reached the hall comforted themselves on the couch and Sameer continued.

"Now! You'll see a trail of overacting as well, she'll take credit for everything she has not done, boast about her achievements that she couldn't think of achieving, poke her nose in all the matters her nose could fix in, all in all she's totally a Fake Person!" Sameer exclaimed while Munna paid attention only to hear more.

"She is not what she shows or thinks herslef to be, conversely, she is a jealous, competitive and self obsessed fellow, Naina hates-" he stopped thinking of Naina, the one who left his house few minutes ago.

"Oh god! I couldn't even call her back till she's here!!" Sameer panicked.

"Why?" Munna asked curiously.

"She always plays gooseberries between us! Not only this she wants to grab all my attention trying to make me forget about Naina and she hated her if anyone comes between us"

"I mean I also hate it but Naina gets her blood pressure increased whenever Mitali is around"

"Are you sure you're talking about your cousin? Not your ex?"

Sameer side-eyes Munna and said "I never had an ex"

"Well she'll not let you feel this void" Munna joked, Sameer laughed along.

Mitali swoops in out of nowhere holding a ceramic plate with homemade sweets served in it.

"Try it Sameer! I've prepared them for you"

Lie again, she doesn't even know difference between salt and sugar in the kitchen. Sameer chortled with that thought but soon controlled his laugh and extended his hand to pick one laddoo.

It was delicious which made Sameer 100% sure that she has not even touched them.

"Ma'am it looks delicious, could you please tell me it's recipe" Ramdhari loved to troll her as much as he could.

Mitali was found concious, struggling through her thoughts. She might be brain storming about the ingredients and the process to prepare the dessert.

"Take wheat flour and knead a dough..."

Wheat flour in besan(gram flour) laddoo? The three of them listened to her confused.

"... then make balls out of them and garnish them with dry fruits simple!" Mitali completed a recipe that alien might eat. Everybody else tried hard not to laugh.

"And don't we add sugar in this?" Ramdhari continued the trolling session. She thought for a while and then came to a conclusion that.

"Yes sprinkle a few granules of sugar that's it"

"Come to my office next week" Kangana commaded Pandit.

"But why?" He asked curiously.

"Just listen me babe I have some plans for us" she almost whipsered in the phone call.

"Alright!" Pandit sighed and hanged up.
