It was a busy afternoon at the office cafeteria, and the group of friends-Prince, Aryan, and Gaurav-were sitting together, chatting over lunch. The soft hum of conversations and clinking plates filled the air, but Prince was distracted, his eyes lingering on Bharati, who was sitting across from him, focused on her phone.
Prince had been thinking about this for a while, wondering if it would be too forward to invite her. He had an extra ticket to a party happening that weekend, and somehow, the idea of going alone didn't appeal to him as much anymore. He felt drawn to Bharati, not just because she was fun and kind, but because there was something familiar about her-something he couldn't quite place.
Clearing his throat, Prince leaned forward, his voice casual but purposeful. "Hey, Bharati, there's this party happening this weekend-kind of a garden party up on the mountain. I have an extra ticket. Would you... want to join me?"
Bharati looked up, a little surprised by the invitation. She wasn't really the party type, and the idea of going somewhere she didn't know anyone but Prince made her hesitate.
"I don't know," she said, biting her lip. "I'm not really good with parties..."
Before she could say more, Aryan, always quick with a joke, jumped in. "Oh, come on! It'll be fun! What's life without a little adventure, right? Plus, you already have the best company with us," he added, winking at Bharati.
Bharati chuckled at Aryan's playful attitude, but she still seemed uncertain.
Sensing her hesitation, Prince smiled warmly. "Look, no pressure. But if you change your mind, just let me know. It's going to be a chilled-out thing-dancing, games, nothing too crazy. You might even enjoy it."
Bharati thought about it for a moment. Despite her reservations, there was something comforting about the way Prince spoke, like he genuinely wanted her to be there. And with Aryan and Gaurav also going, it felt less intimidating. After a pause, she nodded. "Okay, why not? I'll come."
