"So, u are coming right?", Jagvi spoke abruptly.
Saira stopped looking outside the window of the car and turned to Jagvi.
"Where?", Saira looked confused.
"To Sid's party this friday night, U don't know about it?", Jagvi was shocked.
"No",
"Everyone knows about it and everyone's gonna be there",
Saira was no way going to that party! Atleast not of Sid's!
"Uhm, No I am not a party person. The alcohol creeps and the making out couples suck me!",
Jagvi chuckled. "Oh come on Saira! I am coming with u. We will have fun!",
Saira knew that Jagvi could convince her now. So, she is thought of denying at the last moment.
"Fine! We have four days to think! We'll talk about it later",
"As ur wish",
"Yeah",
They finally reached the palace. The girls got to Saira's room and changed into comfy.
"I'm starving with hunger!", Jagvi said.
"Okay, So I'll tell the chef to make a Ramen for you", Saira started going out of the room.
"Wait! I don't want anything foreign! I m in india and I wanna have some Indian Snacks",
"Indian! What should I bring! Gol gappes ka thela!", Saira chuckled at her own joke.
"Hmm, Sounds good!",
"What sounds good? U haven't tried it or what!",
"No",
"You hadn't heard of it?',
"Uhm, Yeah I had but as I lived in Britain I never got the chance to taste it",
"Woha! Then I know what are we gonna have now!",
😋😋😋
Jagvi crunched on the ovoid puri filled with spicy potato corriander and pea's stuffing along with tangy water sitting on Saira's bed. Saira had asked the royal chef to make them Pani Puri's. The best thing about it was that it was homemade and hygiene!
"How's it?", Saira asked chewing.
"I swear I never had such a piquant snack ever in my life!", Jagvi exclaimed.
"I'm glad u liked it", Saira smiled.
Suddenly, Jagvi's phone rang. She dragged a tissue paper and wiped her hands. She swiped to the green button and held the phone straight to her face. It was a video call.
"Hey", Jagvi's cheeks turned crimson red.
"Hey, How are u doing?", A soft male voice occurred from the other side.
Saira assumed him to be Aaron. And gave her a dirty smirk.
Jagvi rolled her eyes and went talking with Aaron about her first day in college.
"Okay, Enough of me! Here is Saira", Jagvi turned the phone towards Saira.
"Hey!", Aaron waved from the screen.
"Hey! My soon-to-be brother in law!", Saira chirped.
Aaron chuckled. "So, Is royalty treating u well?", He asked.
"Yeah, Obviously! Just getting used to the etiquette. By the way, How do u know about me?",
"Everyone Just in the Indian royal community knows about u now. So, you should be ready to get this official anytime soon", He informed.
"Oh no!", Saira huffed.
Aaron and Jagvi laughed.
"Jagvi, Tell Saira that a lot of people have eyes on her now", Aaron said.
"U are in New york! And from there u will tell who stares at Saira here", Jagvi chuckled.
"Sid called me today and he was talking a lot about Saira", Aaron said.
Saira gulped. "He is upto Something. He isn't getting what he wants! Never!", She thought.
"Oh so even Sid knows about her being a royal?", Jagvi asked.
"I just said everyone in the Indian royal community knows now including Sid!",
"Okay, Tell me what was he saying about Saira?", Jagvi looked curious.
"Sorry, That's a boyish thing!", Aaron winked.
Jagvi sighed. They switched the topic and talked about random stuffs. They finally cut.
"So, how did u got to know Sid?", Saira asked Jagvi.
"Us? We all are royals! During our childhood we used to attend Royal functions and parties and eventually I got him as a buddy and a brother! Wish u could be there with us! It would have been much fun", Jagvi smiled.
"Ohk, So, U and Aaron were friends since childhood?",
"No, Not exactly. I had met him when I was 12 years old and I didn't know much about him then. It was just a formal meeting and then after years we again met for the date. So, that's where we became friends and now lovers!",
"How cute!",
"But frankly speaking, If Sid wouldn't have been there then I don't think we could have ever got together",
"What do u mean?",
"Neither me nor Aaron wanted this arranged marriage. So, when we were asked to go on a date with the stranger us we were not at all least interested! I had even planned to run away to get rid of the date but then Sid came to the matter. He was a mutual friend of mine and Aaron. He told me that I should at least take one date and give a chance. Sid also gave me a brief idea of how Aaron was. He also described about me to Aaron. So, things didn't go awkward instead it was the best date I had ever had and now see, We are marrying! All thanks to Sid", Jagvi smiled.
"Sid? and a problem solver?", Saira thought "Yeah, After all They are childhood friends and Jagvi is like a Sister to him so why won't he but in the matters of a boyfriend he is a zero! He and having a genuine feeling for a girl is like unicorns raining from the sky! Love doesn't exists in his dictionary!", Saira mentally made a humorless chuckle.
Saira was lost in deep thought. She felt a certain kind of churn in her stomach.
"But how do I get rid of him! And why do I feel something big's coming!", She bit her lip.
{So, yep! Am back again. Sid's throwing a party! Will Saira go? And what do u think about Sid? Why does Saira have such gut feeling that something's gonna happen? And what do u think Aaron and Siddharth talked about? For all the answers! Stay tuned:)}
