Naina's POV

"Why you got three cookies while I got only two?", I asked my brother with a pout.

"Because mom gave me three", he smirked.

"Why you gave him extra than me, mom?", I whined.

"Because you are not my biological sister, we found you in a garbage bin", he teased me.

"No, mom got you from orphanage", I retrieved with a smirk and we continued arguing.

"I gave birth to you experiencing so much pain and here you are making my stomach a garbage bin and an orphanage", mom scoffed, putting another cookie on my plate.

"Dad, you tell me who is your actual child and who is adopted", I asked him after giving a sheepish smile to my mom.

"Yeah, tell her the truth dad", my brother said.

"If I had a chance, then I would have picked better", he said making us dumbfounded.

"So, you said we are worst", I pouted.

"No, my princess is the best", he replied immediately.
"Ok you are best too", my dad said when my brother glared at him and we busted out laughing.

Oh my god I didn't introduced myself yet, ok let introduce myself.

My name is Naina, most clumsy and crazy girl... That's what they call me.
I have graduated a month ago in English literature. I want to write a book, become a good author. Doing a part time job at a radio station as RJ from 5 years and let me tell you, my voice has so many fans. Apart from this I also works as a translator as I know few foreign languages.

About my family. We are a happy family of four. My dad, Eshwar is a government employee, my mom, Suchitra, is a primary school teacher and my elder brother, Avinash is working as a manager in a software company.

I used to have a boyfriend whose name is Nithin but we broke up five months ago. He said he can't deal with my messy self anymore. So, I said its ok and moved on because I don't want a man who can't understand me.

So, this is all about me.

No, I forgot two important people in my life. One is none other than my best friend Pooja, and she started her own event organizing company. We are best friends from grade school, her mom trusts me more than her and my mom trust her more than me. My mom thinks Pooja is a good girl and her mom thinks that I am an innocent one which are literally opposite to us but we managed to act like that in front of our families.

Well, we both have another best friend, she is Payal. Payal works as an airhostess. I don't know when we became best friends cause in primary school Pooja and me used to hate Payal as she was that kind of girl who gets high marks in every subject and a favorite student to every teacher and what we hate the most was she always used to remind teachers about the tests and home works which they forgot to ask about.
Pooja and me were average students not that topper. But in middle school we three magically became best friends and we stayed like that since then.

We both help Pooja in managing her events when we were free.

...

"Bye mom, bye dad", I kissed their cheeks.

"Bye, take care", my dad kissed my forehead lovingly.

"Eat on time or else I will break your legs", mom warned me.

"Ok mom", I whined. Typical Indian Mother's love, you know.

I am going back to my place which Pooja, Payal and I rented near our workplace. My brother also lives near us as his workplace also located there. Let me tell you a secret, he has crush on Payal and Payal also has feelings for him but they both pretend that they don't have.
