"Naina....Preeti....have your breakfast!!!" shouted Bela in annoyance as they both were getting late for their college that day.
"Mummy we are getting late please pack it in lunchbox, please" A girl came out wearing a pink floral kurta pairing it with a black colour ankle length jeans, her hair tied in a high pony, light pink lipstick applied on her lips, kohl in her eyes with thin line of eyeliner in her eyes, still struggling with her ears to wear the while coloured tops she walked outside. "Preeti, you both do same thing everyday, today I'm not doing anything do it yourself, and where is Naina?? Is she getting ready for miss universe today??" aksed bela agitating though.
"Mumma today is her speech in college so she needs to look good okay, and please mummy pack it I have to pack my bag and hers too, mumma please...." She requested her mother still continuing to run here and there.
"Okay, fine..."
"Naina....are you ready...open the door please" Preeti knocked the door many times.
Finally the door was unlocked. Preeti stepped inside it and her eyes got struck on her. "Naina....." mesmerized Preeti uttered.
"What am I looking a cartoon??" She asked making innocent faces.
"Naina, you could never look a cartoon got it? You are an angel there's nobody who would be not happy being with you, you are amazing...." she stammered and added.
"I think that's too much for today so let's go witch" she giggled and ran out.
"Preeti....." Naina chased her.
"Naina beta.." Bela was looking at her in the same way as preeti did.
She saw a girl wearing red coloured anaarkali with golden border yet a modest cloth, she wore golden coloured small earrings and locket, a golden bracelet, her lips rosy, just applying a lip balm on it she looked gorgeous, her eyes glittering with kohl , hairs loose not willing to set behind her ears and came touching her cheeks, the lady looked eyesome.
"Am I looking good?" aksed Naina hesitating.
"You are looking princess" Bela replied while her eyes brimmed with tears.
"Chachi ji, don't cry and don't you dare to say it once again that one day I'll get married and will look somewhat same that day....blah blahh blah" Naina hugged her and realised they were getting late. She folded hands infront of god, touched Bela's feet and ran straight away taking her blue couloured scooty.
"Take care" shouted Bela from Balcony.
***************
"Girls, girls are our proud, our need, our respect but nowadays some creeps infact many creeps not treat them as girls they just use them and then throw for dieing" Naina's voice became more serious and loud. Everybody in the assembly listened to her with all their attention. "Don't forget if girls are lord Saraswati who is godess of knowledge and music then she's also Durga who sits on lion and herself has quality of lioness and if girls are lord Laxmi who brings prosperity then also she is lord Kali who could destroy the whole world when she took the form and then who knows lord Shiva would also not be enough to calm her anger!" An unstoppable sound of claps echoed into the auditorium. "So here I warn those creeps to just stay away and respect women or else you all will be destroyed....and girls, I request you to not to look for anyone when you're in critical condition, learn self defence techniques and set those creeps ablaze who even tries to touch you!! Thank you" Naina completed piercing a flame of bravery into them and forcing all boys to bow infront of her while she passed them. Teachers gave a grand salute to her for such an influencing speech.
"Naina" shouted Swati from back.
"Oh Swati, how was my speech? Was it ok?" she asked
"Naina it was mind-blowing! You know many of our girls are ready to join self defence classes today itself" she said and they both smiled out of statisfaction that her speech at least made some change in their minds.
"Or else pepper spray is always in my bag dearies" came Preeti, sauntering and winked.
"Our Preeti don't need anything her 2.5 kg hand is enough for boys I guess" giggled Swati.
"Yes of course I would kill them with my punches and slaps" she gestured due to which a slap headed towards Kartik's face who was coming towards Naina to congratulate her.
"Oouuch!" He stared at Preeti whereas Swati and Naina chukled to see Kartik's red cheek.
"What?" Preeti asked and rolled her eyes.
"Anyways, congratulations Naina, your speech was awesome" he smiled and forwarded his hand towards her.
"Thanks Kartik" she folded her hand and replied with a blank face after which she left without even taking a glimpse of his.
Swati and Preeti chukled at his face and followed her not before saying him a 'good bye'.
All three friends had their lunch in canteen and headed towards their respective homes as classes was suspended after lunch due to some fuctions going on. Naina and Preeti waved a 'bye' to Swati and left.
"Chachaji!!" Naina saw him and hugged hiim tightly.
"Sorry beta, I didn't meet you in the morning I had to go earlier by the way my princess is looking beautiful" he said settling himself on sofa.
"It's ok chachaji" Naina too accompanied him and sat on sofa.
"How was your speech today?" He asked giving them a glass of water.
"Papa it was awesome, everybody clapped for Naina and teachers too were impressed, she gave that speech with all the required expressions and confidently which was icing on the cake and also..." Preeti was interrupted by Bela.
"Take a breath Preeti, don't you get tired you speaking so much, Anand ji I'm pretty sure that she might be speaking much more than Naina today though not on stage" they all chukled and Preeti stared her mother for everytime making fun of her.
"Naina listen!" Chachaji's voice turned serious.
"Yes Chachaji what happened?" Naina asked perplexed along with Preeti.
"Your last year is about to complete, and you are 24 now soo...soo I wanted to say that!" He stammered. Bela held her hand to console him.
"To get marry?" Naina asked.
"Umm...ya...yes beta how did you know this?" He asked again confused.
"Chachaji I saw my photograph here on the table, which was shot without any reason one month ago because you told me to...and when you started I understood the whole matter" she described everything.
"My princess is always so smart ha" Chachaji said facepalming her.
"And me papa? I am a queen right?" Preeti joked.
"No..you are maleficent" added Bela.
"Leave it, Naina beta today a perfect family approached me for marrying you with his grandson. They are so much rich and nice people. My Naina will remain happy throughout her life."
"Bela wait" interrupted Anand. "Naina I don't want to force you into this relationship, I want you to get ready taking your time for this marriage, if you want, we will fix a meeting with the boy and you talk to him ok?" He asked concerned for Naina.
"Chachaji!" Naina kept her hand into his and continued "you always took care of everything in my life and I bet it everything went totally correct, I have faith in you and chachiji you might've selected the perfect guy for me, so pleaae don't make me feel low asking such questions." Naina relieved him from all his tensions by saying that, the couple smiled on looking the mature Naina that always impressed them by her words.
"Naina, but still I want you to at least checkout his photograph it's on the dining table okay?" He said.
"And change your clothes, snacks are in the kitchen if you want, we are going to grocery shop ok!?" Bela and Anand stood up, Anand caressed Naina's head while Bela pulled Preeti's cheek and headed outside the house.
Naina ran towards the room and locked it for changing her clothes.
"Naina open the door please...."
"Wait until I am finished" she giggled and changed her clothes taking enough time. Finally she opened the door and saw Preeti already smiling looking at her.
"What?" Naina asked confused.
"Oho...." She looked at her and walked inside the room locking it.
"Preeti wait, what happened??" Naina knocked the door still not able to figure out anything.
"Dining table.....photo"
By listening to those keywords Naina went to see what was on dining table and saw a photograph holder. She picked it up and understood what she saw. Naina slowly opened it imagining how his face might be, would he be like Salman Khan her crush of life or...he would end up just being a supportive character, she took a long breathe and opened her eyes to see Salman Khan, no not exactly but almost a SK personality. Starting with his hairs styled like SK, sliky, his eyes gleaming that attracted her to look more on it. His smile that took her heart away, she held his picture more close to her face not able to stop looking at it a smile automatically made its way towards her lips. At bottom of that picture, she saw his name written in small letters "Sa...Sam....Sameer" she whispered and smiled!
