Precap:
"I love you, Kaira and I'm really really happy that you feel so too" he said.

"I love you too Mr. Khadoos Singh Oberoi" I confessed and we both laughed.

Kaira's POV:

Okay. Now I regret saying I love you. No! Not because of Karan, because of these idiot girls who are busy converting me into a barbie, which I hate since childhood. Today, it's Saturday which means I have my date tonight. The whole week passed as wind. I usually didn't see Dev much, but whenever I did, I tried to ignore him. But that's a story for another day, as Karan says.

"Guys yaar! It's just a date. Let me just wear jeans and camisole. I still remember his words and I quote him, 'Even if you wear a potato sack you will always look beautiful to me'. So, why this chaos?" I whined.

"Oh shut up, Koko! He's not just your boyfriend now, he's the love of your life for God sake!" Rishi scolded.

"What else? Now, our academic session is over, internship will begin, Final year is at the end, you have the love of your life, atleast dress up for him!" ChiChi added.

"Maybe, if you dress up and he gets too much impressed with it, you might get lucky and get laid" Rishi added with a smirk.

I immediately gasped dramatically and scolded "You guys are so pathetic! Horrible! I've never seen him that way! You guys! Ugh!"

"Okay. Shut up. Stop whining like a child. Get ready, we are going shopping!" ChiChi ordered.

I changed from my nightdress PJs to blue camisole and white palazzo pants. We moved to Oberoi Mansion, where we picked up Nikki as she had to do some shopping too. She said she was getting all bored so she asked and later she agreed to join us.

We reached High Street Phoenix, where Rishi led us to Hypercity.

"Hello. I'm Rishika and we are finding a dress for my friend, she has a date today" Rishi said non chalantly to the receptionist.

"Sure Mam. Please follow me. A fresh batch of cocktail dresses and party wear has arrived yesterday evening. But before that please let me know if you have any budget or any limit" she notified politely.

"No, we don't have any budget. You can show us the best dresses. Money doesn't matter" ChiChi replied.

"And Mam, do you have any customisation for the dress? I mean, colour or style?" she asked.

"Umm.... since it's a date, why don't you show us some LBDs?" Nikki suggested.

She hummed in response. Then she made us sit on the sofa, which was set against the changing room. We all were seated there, when she came back with a rack full of black dresses. Immediately, all the girls except me sprung from their seats and started searching for the perfect dress.

After five to seven minutes, they all came back with few dresses each.

"Okay, so try mine first" Rishi said. She had brought some explicit dresses.

Rishi handed me two dresses.





I tried both of them and got nothing but a shake of head from all the three.

"Okay, now it's my chance" ChiChi said and handed me a dress.
