Kyun - Chapter 6
"Awesome yellow dress? Check! Make up? Check! Shoes? Check! Chunky Yellow Bangle? Check! Yellow Hoop Earrings? Check!" Priyanca said to herself, as she got ready to go to a birthday party.
Tonight was a very special night for Priyanca; it was her best friend Isha's birthday! Isha was holding a small party, inviting only her closest and best friends. Held at an up-scale dance club in London, the party would be hip and rocking, like any other 22 year old's party would be.
Priyanca grabbed her last accessory, a yellow clutch purse, and ran off to her new Lime Green Toyota Corolla. As she started the car, Priyanca looked at herself one last time in the mirror. "Perfect!" she thought in her head. While driving on the bustling roads of London, Priyanca put in a CD, her newest find, Love Aaj Kal.
"Mere Dil Ka Hua Aisa, Mehraam Thoda Thoda Pyaar Aagaya. Oh Mere Dil Ka Hua Aisa, Mehram Thoda Thoda Pyaar Aagaya." Priyanca sang to herself, recieving strange stares from the drivers of cars next to her.
"Ab Ajeeb Lage To Lagne De, Aaj Meri Best Friend Ki Birthday Hai! I'm so happy!" Priyanca said happily to the people, who gave her even stranger stares.
"What? What are you saying you cooky lady? Have you gone mad?" One of them asked.
"Tera Sar! Apni Shakal dekhi hai kya? Bilkul ek budhi si aunty ke jaise dikhi ho tum!" Priyanca said laughing her head off.
"What? What do you mean?"
"What I mean is..." Priyanca started.
"Ey Lady, get a move on. We have places to go!" An angry man behind her said.
Priyanca slammed on the pedal and was on her way. Looking at monuments and wowing buildings from her window, Priyanca had to stop and think; "What a beautiful place!" At last, Priyanca stopped at the entrance of the happening club, and parked her car. What a hassle! Priyanca happily skipped up the steps like a 5 year-old returning home from school, and went inside the main door.
"Excuse me maam, your pass?" A security guard asked.
"Umm, yes, it's somewhere in here." Priyanca said with a slight giggle, point to her clutch.
After rummaging around the purse for a couple minutes, Priyanca realized she had left her access pass at home, since she was in such a rush to go.
"Um...I..." Priyanca started.
"She's with me" said a man behind her, as he put his hand on her shoulder.
Nor did he see her face, nor did she see his. Yet, a stranger, a complete stranger, let her in.
"Thank you so much... your such a sweetheart!" Priyanca said as they walked into the club.
"Sure, no problem. I'm Sameer, call me Sammy, and you are?"
"I'm Priyanca, call me Pri"
"Nice to meet you Pri! Do you speak Hindi?" Sameer asked curiously.
"Yeah, I do. Vaise, tum kis khushi mein yahaan aaye ho?" Priyanca asked.
"Meri dost, Isha ki party hai... Tum?"
"Wow, looks like we're going to the same party. What a coinsidence!"
"Hey Isha, Happy Birthday!" said a guest.
"Thank You Malini, do enjoy the party." said a girl with pretty long black hair, glasses, and deep brown eyes. She sported a sleveless blue dress with a blue bracelet and bright blue heels. A girl - with looks and a mouth to kill. Literally! Being very blunt and loud, Isha told any guy off who tried to get a date with her. Isha loved playing hard to get. It was Isha.
"Isha! Hey girl! Happy Birthday! You look rocking." Priyanca said, giving Isha a big hug.
"Thanks darling, you look fabulous." Isha said with a warm smile.
"Come guys, lets dance!" Isha told Sameer and Priyanca.
As the night passed, Sameer and Priyanca had a blast together, and found out a lot about each other. Turns out Sameer was also taking a Journalism Course at the same university as Sakshham, Priyanca, and Isha were. Sameer and Priyanca hit it off well, but would it last?
