*It's nighttime and Nidhi demands to be told a story from her roommate, Shreya. She frowns.*
Shreya: Are you mad? You're not a kid anymore. 🥱
Nidhi: Flip you. Tell me a story! 😡
Shreya: Fine. I'll tell you the story of the Princess and Reality. And Reality is a beast's name. At least for you. 🤔
Nidhi: Just speak. 😡

*The story begins.*
Many centuries back, a King and Queen were going to have a baby and they invited the Fairy Princess as they were afraid of Reality, a beast that would devour their child. The Fairy Princess arrived.
Fairy Princess: Hello.
King: Please save our child from Reality.
Fairy Princess: The only way to save your daughter is by gifting her with gifts that she will use when the time comes.

*Back in the room.*
Nidhi: Stop boring me. I'm going to talk to Preetz. 😵
*As if on cue, Preetz came into the room. Shreya and Nidhi looked at her.*
Preetz: What? 😕
Shreya: She wants to hear a story. 😆
Preetz: Which one are you telling her? 😕
Shreya: The Princess and Reality. 😛
Preetz: Oh I like that one. Continue. 😉

*Story continues.*
Fairy Princess: On your princess's birth invite all the fairies of this kingdom to bless your daughter and she'll be fine.
Queen: Will you also come?
Fairy Princess: Of course. I'm the princess of all the fairies.

*Back in the room.*
Nidhi: Okay now you guys are really boring me. 😵
Shreya: Well it's your birth story. After all it's your birthday. 😛
Nidhi: Shut up. This is such a boring birthday. 🥱
Preetz (chuckling): She doesn't know yet what we have planned for her. 😉
Shreya (high-fiving Preetz): The moment she finds out she's going to die of surprise. 😆
Nidhi: Yeah and then the 2 of you will turn my birthday into my death day. 🥱
Shreya: Oh we're still going to celebrate your birthday because you'll only die in our thread. Now Preetz call Debasree to continue the story. 😉
Preetz: Actually call Yagya, Tahniat, and Megha as well. After all they'll continue the story. 😛
*The 4 come into the room.*
Nidhi: What are you guys doing here? 😲
Yagya: Celebrating your birthday. 🥳
Tahniat: And here we continue the story. 😉

*Story continues.*
