"So, tell me, how was London?" Jeevika said as she drove the car through narrow roads.
"Di, it was amazing! Everything was beautiful! I made new friends and they were fab! Oh and the shops were soo cool! There was a lot of designer stuff like DKNY, D&G...I've got some for you. Gosh, i wanna go back!" Maanvi replied.
"Awwwh. So who are your friends and what are their names?" Maanvi's older sister asked.
"Well, there's Nandini, Priya, Anushka, Kajol, Suhana..." the youngest sister listed as Jeevika laughed. "What?"
"Don't worry. Woh choro, ab bata, plane mein kya hua?" Jeevika questioned. She had been wanting to know what had happened to her Maanvi..
"Kya poocho nahi hua..." Maanvi said as she shook her head.
After hearing the whole story, Jeevika was in fits of laughter. Maanvi gave her the evils as Jeevika stopped the car in front of their house. After 6 months, Maanvi would be stepping into her own house. She would see her parents even though they saw each other on Skype once a week.
Jeevika opened the doors as Maanvi's mouth went wide open. The house had been decorated. In large bright letters, a banner had been hung on the wall saying 'Welcome Back Maanvi!'. Immediately, she hugged Jeevika. She knew that her sister would have thought of all this.
"Di...You've done so much for me. First you sacrificed your studies just for me. You were going to come with me to London to study Medicine but didn't come because there would be no one to look after Baba and Maa, Then I didn't want to go but you said that I should. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have been a fashion designer. You are the best sister in the world!" Maanvi said as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Maanu..it was nothing. I can do much more for you..much more. And you are the best sister in the world too! Love you!" Jeevika replied as the two sisters hugged once again.
People had started arriving to the Chaudhry House. Maanvi and Jeevika were chatting away to all their guests. Just as Maanvi was walking towards Jeevika, she noticed her most "favourite" guests, the Patel sisters. The Patel sisters were Maanvi and Jeevika's worst enemies. They had all been to the same college but hated each other's guts. But, they had to play along that they were friends as Maanvi and Jeevika's mum was best friends with theirs.

Nupur (Nupz) Patel- Viren's girlfriend
Maya Patel -Virat's girlfriend
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeevika and Maanvi looked at each other and sighed deeply. They walked up to them and greeted the Patels.
"H iNupur." Jeevika said in a sweet tone.
"It's Nupz okay? Some people..." Maya grumbled as Jeevika gave her evils.
"Maya...How are you? Jealous that I went to London?" Maanvi said as she smiled.
Jeevika nudged her which meant she had to keep quiet.
"Of course not Maanvi Chaudhry. Why would I be jealous of someone like you? You should be jealous of us Patel sisters." Maya replied as she smirked.
"Jealous of you two? Never." Maanvi and Jeevika said together.
"You see, we have boyfriends unlike some people who don't have the look to get one!" said Nupur as she made a hand gesture.
Entering the Chaudhry house were two hot desi boys. All the girls looked at them and giggled between themselves. As the Chaudhry sisters turned around to see who it was, they got the biggest shock of their life! It was Viren and Virat!
"Hey babes!" chorused Viren and Virat as they stood beside their so-called girlfriends.
The boys looked at Maanvi and Jeevika. Viren smiled at Jeevika while Virat and Maanvi shared evils.
"HeyDedh Futiya. Welcome back-NOT!" Virat greeted as Maanvi trod on his foot. "Owww!"
"How dare you!?!" shouted Maya as she gave a Don't You Dare Do That Again face to Maanvi.
As if Maanvi cared. She wandered off with Jeevika, leaving Virat still holding his foot.
Like always, Maanvi was up for some fun so she decided to play her favourite game called Dumb Charades! Everyone was split into 2 teams. The first team was Virat, Maanvi, Maya and the other team was Viren, Jeevika and Nupur. They sat opposite each other as Jeevika brought a small bowl full of chits to the center of the room.
"Okay, you all might know how to play this but let me just explain. Basically there's 2 teams and a person from team 1 has to come up and take out a chit. In the chit there is a name of a Bollywood film and the person has to tell the people in her group without using any words. You only get 2 minutes to guess." Jeevika explained as everyone nodded their heads.
First up was Maanvi. She took out the chit and smiled.
She did a sign which meant that it was in English. Suddenly, Maanvi went up to Virat's face and started making scary faces. He was freaked out. Jeevika was laughing soo much. She knew what her older sister was trying to do.
"Erm...Bhootni, Vampire, Zombie?" muttered Virat, who was still freaked out.
Maanvi kept putting her index finger up.
"What?!?!" said a confused Virat. "Bhootni/Bhoot!"
Maanvi nodded again but did the english sign.
"What the...! What's a bhoot in english?? ermm...GHOST!" Virat shouted as Maanvi jumped in the air.
Next it was Jeevika's go. She chose a purple chit as it was her fave colour and opened it. Jeevika dreaded it. "Why did I have to have this one?" she thought.
She did the hindi sign and put up 4 of her fingers.
"4 words in hindi, 3rd one is english." said Viren.
She pointed to Viren.
"Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya?" Viren asked.
Jeevika and everyone else was shocked. She didn't even give any clues.
Jeevika nodded and sat down as they looked at each other. Viren winked as she blushed. Nupur gave a warning to Viren and turned away.
The game lasted for an hour. People were praising Maanvi-Virat and Jeevika-Viren as a great couple because the boys' real girlfriends were rubbish at it.
Maanvi went to the bathroom. As soon as she came out, Maya was standing by the door.
"I must say how well you did in the game Miss Maanvi Chaudhry. Very well indeed. And what were people saying, Oh..Maanvi and Virat suit sooo much! They have a great understanding. What rubbish! Why do you want to steal him away from me? You chor!" Maya said as Maanvi stood there, shocked.
"Eww, Maya how can you think I'd steal YOUR boyfriend when I absolutely hate him. Not my fault I'm an ace at this game!
"Like I'm going to believe you! I'll go and ask him myself!" Maya exclaimed as she raced down the stairs with Maanvi following her.
"VIRAT!!!" shouted Maya at the top of her voice. Everyone looked at her.
Virat came running. "What happened sweety?"
"She wants to steal you away from me!" cried Maya.
"OMD! You big fat liar. She said that I'm stealing you away when I said I hated you so how can I! I can't believe you're going out with a drama queen!" Maanvi said as anger appeared on her face.
"How dare you talk to her like that Maanvi? Maybe Maya is right. You probably want me coz i'm too hot!" Virat said as he laughed. He was trying to solve the fight by making it into a joke.
"Virat, shut up! That's not true. You're the most ugliest and most annoying man I have met in my whole life!" Maanvi screamed! She couldn't stand it when someone argued with her!
"Excuse me, talk about yourself! I haven't met a girl like you and never would want to meet. You are a mindless girl just like you're mindless family." Maya exclaimed.
Maanvi was about to slap her when Virat held her hand.
"How dare you talk about my family like that! Look at your own! You...you...!"
"Atleast she and her sister have a decent job and earn for the family unlike your sister who wanted to be a doctor but ended being a non-working woman!" Virat shouted!
Maanvi was shocked. How did he know?
"How dare you talk about my sister like that? You have no right too. You *beeep*" Maanvi said as tears rolled down her face.
She stormed out of her house and into the dark, stormy night.
