It was picnic day, and excitement filled the air as Samaira prepared to head out. She stood in front of the mirror, adjusting her hair when her father, Rohit, walked into her room with a curious smile.
"Where are you going, Sammy?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Just out with friends," she replied, glancing at him as she tied her hair into a loose ponytail.
Rohit nodded, his expression shifting to one of concern. "Be safe and take care," he said, a protective tone in his voice.
"Of course, Dad," Samaira reassured him, wrapping her arms around him in a warm hug.
Rohit chuckled softly, looking down at her with a hint of amusement. "What happened, Sammy? You're being extra sweet today."
She shook her head, a playful smile spreading across her face. "Nothing, Dada. I just missed you."
"Well, my busy fashion designer, you were too busy to miss me," he teased lightly.
"Okay, okay, I promise to visit more often," she replied, stepping back and giving him a wink.
After saying her goodbyes, Samaira hopped into her car, her heart racing with excitement. She arrived at the picnic spot, where the vibrant colors of blankets and food spread across the lush green grass greeted her. The laughter of her friends filled the air, and she felt an instant wave of joy as she spotted Ahaan among them.
"Hey, look who's finally here!" Aadhya shouted, waving enthusiastically as she ran over to embrace her.
"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Samaira grinned, joining the group.
"Let's get this picnic started!" Akaay declared, and soon they were all setting up the blankets, unpacking delicious food, and sharing stories.
As the day progressed, the sun shone brightly, and they played games, took pictures, and enjoyed each other's company. Samaira felt a sense of belonging, laughter echoing around her as they all engaged in playful banter.
At one point, Ahaan caught her eye from across the blanket, a mischievous smile on his face. He leaned over to Agastya and whispered something, causing them both to chuckle. Curious, Samaira walked over, her heart racing a little.
"What are you two plotting?" she asked, trying to sound serious but failing to hide her amusement.
"Just planning how to make the day more fun," Ahaan replied, his eyes sparkling with mischief.
"More fun? I think it's pretty perfect already," Samaira said, her heart fluttering as their eyes locked.
"Well, we were thinking of a little friendly competition. How about a race?" Agastya suggested, clapping his hands together in excitement.
"A race? You're on!" Samaira replied, feeling a rush of adrenaline.
With cheers and laughter, they gathered at a designated spot, ready to compete. As they lined up, Samaira found herself standing next to Ahaan, their shoulders brushing against each other. She couldn't help but smile at him, feeling grateful for the fun they were having together.
