Gosh' my life is always adventurous in a negative way'why..??? no shoes' what would I do now'.???how would I go to the party' I cannot wear any old pair. What would people think'??? The fashionista siya shekhawat' is wearing an old pair of shoes' no this can't happen. I can't even drop the plan of going there. Afterall it's my party' what would I do now'??? siya shekhawat, a 16 year old teenager was going through the biggest turmoil a girl of her age and stature can go through. She could not get her desired pair of shoes matching with her party dress, Party of her 16th b'day. Now there is only one person she can turn to' her big bro, swayam shekhawat, for whom her wish comes before anything. He is 10 years elder to her. She is apple of his eye and treats her as his kid and not sister. Shekhawat's own the country's biggest conglomerate and lead a very lavish lifestyle. Siya being the youngest is the most pampered person in the family and need not say twice for her wishes to be fulfilled but she is closest to her brother, who has just came back from USA after completing his MBA and has joined his dad. Siya has grown into an obnoxious, self-centred, rude teenager whereas swayam is just opposite. He is all a girl can dream of' good looking, intelligent, well mannered; a true gentleman.
He came out of his trance with the ring on his cellphone. The caller ID flashed princess and instantly a smile crept on his until gloomy face. "Hello princess'"
Siya: bhai, in a tensed voice'
Swayam: what happened baby.. itni tensed kyun ho..??? with a worried tone
Siya: bhai.. vo mere pass dress ke matching shoes nhi hai' ab main party me kaise jaungi'
Swayam: while smiling, bas itni si baat' don't worry darling' just wait for 15 min.
Siya: pakka na bhai'??? Still worried
Swayam: ofcourse sweetheart.. aisa kabhi hhua hai ki aapne kuch maanga nd vo main aapko naa dun' just relax' nd get ready till I get u shoes'
Call ends and he immediately called on somebody and asked the person to get all his shoe collection to his palatial home.
Siya, in her room, pacing to and fro, all dressed up is looking angelic in her baby pink frock dress and loose hair with soft curls falling on her shoulder and a pink hairband. She was indeed looking a princess. Suddenly, she heard a knock on her door. A smile crept on her worried face as she knew it's her bhai. She opened the door and swayam entered with a couple of salesman holding boxes of shoes. The room was no less than a palace for them. The room was all painted in white and purple with a bed in its middle filed with different kind of stuff toys. On her dressing table was makeup kit of almost all labels. Her wardrobe boasted of more than 100's of dresses. In all, it was a dream fairy palace.
Swayam looked at the somewhat relieved face of his kid sister and forgot all his worries for a while. Siya tried different shoes and finally got what she wanted. Her face glowed like that of a kid on seeing those shoes and she hugged swayam almost running into his arms. Salesmen were amused at her this behaviour and swayam himself chuckled.
Party was very lavish affair with all the who's who of the town in attendance. Everybody is enjoying the party but one person. Soon, announcement was made for the cake cutting. Everybody gathered around a table having three tier Barbie cake but the most important person for the b'day girl was missing. He was lost in his own thoughts. Another announcement was made for him after which he came rushing towards the cake. He made some random excuse and then the cake was cut and everybody went on to enjoy the party.
Bhai' bhai' kya hua..??? kahan lost ho'??? R u not enjoying the party'??? He was suddenly brought back to the reality by the sound of his darling sis.
Swayam: no siya, nothing like that' was just thinking about something'
Siya: bhai.. r u ok'??? I'm noticing u r lost since u came back from US' is everything fine..???
Swayam: why r u asking so..??? I'm perfectly fine, just missing my frnds' he made an excuse'
Siya: bhai, u don't call me by my name unless u r very disturbed and u just did dat'
There was absolute silence for few minutes with Sharon being worried for her brother and swayam realising the gravity of the matter that he until thought will be resolved by itself in few days and at the same time thinking of some excuse to make for his odd behaviour. Sharon realised it'
Siya: it's ok bhai' I do understand. But if there's anything your princess is always there to listen' flashing her gorgeous smile.
Swayam: I know sweetheart' vaise what are you doing here'??? U r supposed to enjoy your party.
Siya made a sorry expression remembering the reason she's here. She continued'
Siya: bhai, I have a surprise for you. Just close your eyes and I'll be back
She left leaving behind a confused swayam. But he followed like an obedient brother and closed his eyes. Just then siya entered with a girl in her tow. The girl was almost swayam's age and was looking breathtaking beautiful in her purple flowing gown. Both girls giggled seeing swayam like that. Then the girl went behind him and closed his eyes. He went perplexed for a moment and then flashed a huge smile calling on the name Kriya. Both girls again giggled and swayam joined them this time. Kriya Ghai, swayam's best friend and daughter of his dad's best friend. They grew up together and Kriya was another person who had spoiled siya with her pampering but again she's the only one who can smack her on her faults. Swayam and kriya are engaged. They always thought that are meant to be as they were always busy among themselves that they never had time for anybody else. Though swayam was happy seeing his best buddy there, he was confused at the same time. The two years that he has spent without her as changed his notion of love. He is confused as to talk to kriya about it or not as he was not sure of anything at this point of time. At the same time, kriya is also going through the same confusion as him. These two years sure have some long bearing on the lives of these two and the little arrogant siya, apple of their eye.
After the party, swayam drives to his favourite spot in Mumbai, haaji ali' he loves the calmness there at this point of time. He was lost in his thoughts, thoughts of "HER". She has changed his notions of love, of friendship and of world. She has changed the swayam shekhawat.
*flashback*
"He entered the auditorium to see a beautiful girl performing indian classical dance. The girl caught his attention in a moment not only because of her dance, but there was something enigmatic about her. It was his first day in NYU. In next moment what he saw, made his heart flutter, the girl started swaying to the tunes of a contemporary songs while taking off her saree( she was wearing a salsa dress beneath). In next 10 min. the girl performed almost every dance form imagined. After the dance, she bowed down and the audience and panellists gave her a standing ovation. Yes, she was Sharon rai prakash, daughter of one of the world's famous choreographer and was auditioning for a Broadway play. She was a student of NYU and junior of swayam as he was doing a masters course there and she was in the final year of her graduation."
Sharon Rai Prakash, the name made him smile in his thoughts.
<Sharon Rai Prakash, the diva of the college, the egoistic, rude and self-obsessed girl, who was her dad's princess, his darling, who has been habituated to have things her way. Her best friend, reyaansh singhaniya, son of one of the richest person in USA was swayam's classmate and soon his best friend too. Sharon and reyaansh were engaged. Sharon had a liking towards her but rey, as he is fondly called was looking for her dream girl, somebody who is his love and not friend. But he never said these things to Sharon as he was himself not sure if he'll ever meet such a girl or not until one day when he was visiting his grandparents in India. He met the girl of his dreams who was just opposite to Sharon, a selfless, pure soul who loved everybody. The girl was kriya, kriya ghai.>
