The guest started registering at the registration desk. Ansh was waiting for the one who become famous in his office & it was dicey of her presence. Ansh was confident that she will come. As he bet with the person handling her PR.
Finally, Ansh saw a lady who was accompanied on the big day by her Mom & Dad.
I told to myself "Yehi hai wo." I was laughing out loud inside.
Her eyes met mine. I saw a dusky-skinned woman no less intimidating Glowing bioluminescent whorls decorated the sides of her head. She bowed slightly. Her skin alternated in midnight black and pale white bands that wound up her body and down her arms and legs, with ridges along the line where light met dark.
She is gifted with Sharp & Defined facial features, especially the eyes, lips, brow & nose
An amazing figure like the hourglass.
She has a roman nose, thin lips, a good jawline, and not too much makeup. Most important a nice personality too.
She had a Perfect curve. Dusky skin & hazel Eyes it seems as if she used lens because her iris seems to be larger than average which was looking good on her face. Long and dark eyelashes. Long hair.
I was measuring her height which looked good. It was just my imagination because the exact height was hidden because of her high heel.
She was holding her mom's hand on one side & on the left hand, she was carrying her white clutch.
"Mam, can you show me your covid vaccination certificate? Ansh asked
I don't have the certificate but I have my RTPCR report. She replied
I asked to show it. The report was more than 72 hrs old. She was continuously looking into my eyes as if she wanted to say something without speaking. I received that message telepathically that she was praying to god may he look at my face & not the report.
The event flow started & there was a welcome speech by Bipasha Basu. 'I looked at her and didn't ask for her Mom's report & ask to proceed.
She thanked me and proceed towards the sitting arrangement.
