We left back to the danger area. Janvi, roopa, Vaishali, Prema has finished selecting.

"Which one of the two beauties want to be next? Bride or maid of honour?" Negara asked looking at us all.

"Arora, don't worry about me!" Gupta started.

"Hey! How can I loose the chance to design for daphne magic?" She asked looking at us.

" Arora, I can come some other time and you have already designed for me twice earlier. Bride here is too important and we have two more guest too! Ms.Shruti Sharma And Ms. Sarah!" Gupta said introducing us. Negara looked at what she has in hand now.

"It's really nice to meet you Ms. Sharma! I keep an eye at your column. You have a great body and sense of fashion too." Nega said shaking hands with her.

"I loved your show stoppers dress of your last show too! Not my style, but it was your bestest of your bests." Shruti said pointing the cloth that hung on the doll. It was white wedding gown and you can see the whole back is open and there is deep neck cut.

"Thank you!" She said back smiling a little.

"I am sorry Sharma and Ms. Gupta you asking for too much in short time!" She said looking at two more project she has in hand.

"Arora, don't forgot Sharma here is pretty princess having too many fans. I hope you know there will be more fame, you would be getting by having all the princess in your design?"

"I would love it? But time is really short!"

"I can understand ..." Shruti started.

"One more is no problem for diva like you, I hope? You already finished others design Arora.." Gupta said and Nega looked at Sharma.

"Fine, I really was expecting sometime to design for sharma and I have idea for you sometime now. But, How about her then are you going to brainwash me about her too?" Negara asked Gupta.

Gupta looked little smug as if she is going to be.

"I am sorry Sarah? Can you say who you are to help me brainwash her?" Gupta asked looking at me and I know what she is up to, I can feel Shruti and others getting tense. Though she voiced so genuine, I know that eye hold mischief As she clearly knows me well.

"Ms. Narmadha Gupta, thank you for trying to brainwash her for me. But, no I don't need it. Cause, I really want her be calm and relaxed to make a good dress for the bride, my friend and for you all too.

Ms. Negara Arora, don't worry she will not brainwash you for me. To design a gorgeous bridal wear and beautiful dress for eight beauties itself a tough thing.

My mentor always says enjoy working and you won't be tried. So, I am neither going to make you feel your work as tougher nor planning to tried you out." I said meaning it. She gave me an greatful smile. I can see Gupta trying to hide her anger as she hid her mischief at my mention of advith. Take it babe!

"I really like you Sarah, I so want to make a dress for you, if not for you but for the mentor who thought you rightly to follow something that's worth working with ever.

I can't promise you I will make you a best dress. But, can you try something from what I have or if you want to create customarily, I can ask my best juniors or if some other designer You wish with. I promise you to arrange a meeting with them As earlier as possible." She said and I know now as to why she is leading.

She is down to earth and want to satisfy the customer with her full best and honesty.

"Honestly! I think let me see your collection. And don't worry I have my fashion divas here to help me get one anyway as I really don't like dress shopping. As I say don't feel sorry for being honest!" I said and she smiled at me.

"Was That also your mentor preaching?" She asked smiling a little.

"That was my mentor's grandmother preaching!" I said hugging grandma.

"Mr. Advith Vidal was your mentor?" She asked as if she is surprised at a slight intake of info.

"Yes! She is his intern and you really don't want to design for ..."  I cut grandma before she can complete.

"Grandma! Come on let us give her time to design Shruti some dress!" I said as its not like I don't have dress, vidal ladies always filled my closet and I can always take something from it and says that's something I brought just now. grandma smiled sheepishly at me and I did her back in sarcasm.

"Yes! Can we Ms. Sharma?" She asked looking at her.

"I will look around with my friend too, Ms. Arora. If  We don't like any, let's discuss or find some other way. We don't have time and I see you haven't started with bride still." Shruti said and Negara gave a warm smile.

"Please Call me nega, Ms. Sharma and Ms. Sarah. I am not that older than you girls!" She said smiling at us. Me and Shruti laughed a little.

"Then, leave the formality on me too, nega!" I said

"I prefer Shruti too! I practised hearing people addressing my parents Sharma!" Shruti said smiling a little.

"Thank you girls for understanding!" She said giving us a quick hug. We smiled at her.

"Let me show you around!" She sarted.

"We will look around! Start our bride dress, we already took lot our your valuable times!" Shruti said and she smiled at us.

"Can you give us your opinion too, it's bride dress here!" She said looking at us.
"Also I would be at ease having the fashion divas approval!" Shruti nodded at her and We all sat in the table.

Harshi seem to be really confused as nega rolled the sides of idea she came up before hand.

"Is there any other way you can make us feel the outcome of the sketch. I like the sketches But, I don't know how it look on the harshi or even myself, nega!" I said and nega looked at me for a minute and then she looked at harshi who narrowed her eyes at me.

"Ms. Mehrota! Do you want to look around the shop for a while and try the dresses you like. Maybe you can come up with things of which you are comfortable or like? We can work from there too as you wish.

Sometime my sketch may not be what you like to describe your thoughts? Or even better your dream dress is already made ready for you!" Nega said looking at harshi. She happily nodded at her. Nega took us all. She kept showing Shruti, me and harshi dresses as she explained it.

I pushed Shruti to try with three dresses, One her selection and another mine and her third was given by nega for me as I am really lazy, I asked Shruti to try that too. Harshi is looking around as Gupta and nega showing her some and explains her what cut is this or what is what, I guess.

I am right now roaming around to escape all ladies shoving dress at me to try. I stopped at my favourite colour teal or turquoise finished dress it was simple, but is really classy. I bet harshi would love this.

"Harshi! Harshi!" I called and she came and was about to say something, but gowri ma beat her.

"What is it sarah?"

"This is gorgeous right?" I asked showing the dress to all asking harshi, She looked at the dress and she nodded her head confusedly at me.

"Don't you think Dev would love this on you?"

"It's very simple Ms. Sarah!" Gupta said, making me sigh at her.

"Gowri ma?"I kept the dress before harshi. She smiled as she took the dress to read the pattern.

"Harshi is not you Sarah! Being a Golden princess, she is looking for a princess cut golden dress." Roopa said and I saw she is being polite with me unlike her usual. Is she trying to say me something or it's because of the curt nod deal we have.

"But why don't you try this? This will look really good on you, harshi. Isn't grandma?" I asked grandma.

"It's really beautiful and I am surprised you are shopping here."

"How can't I? Dev's engagement na?" I said and we heard Shruti calling us.

"Sarah! I really love this dress for a change!" Shruti said as she came out in the light grey dress letting the front end at knee and curves down to the heel in back with half hand net sleeves and full dress designed with floral pattern lace.

"Ranvir is going to kill me!" I said and she smiled, nodding a little.

"Sarah!" Geetha MA reprimand is, making Viji MA And Latha MA too laugh.

"Truth though! Isn't it?" I gave them innocent look. Only made everyone smile and say Shruti looks good.

"You look pretty gorgeous, Shruti! I never thought dress will get this pretty when I designed it." Nega said smiling napping as if she mean it.

"Thank you. But, need some adjustments can you do that for me nega?" She asked and nega smiled at her.

"I can see your shoulder blade is not good and waist has to be fitted ..." she said and they both started talking and nega called her assistant to note things she say.

"Want to try this harshi? You may love it too!" I said.

"First! It's Sir and madam For you, sl*t. Stay away from us all, also Don't you dare call him Dev or try to seduce him, poor orphan girl stay in your limits."Harshi said and I just looked at her in surprise. What did she just said now?

"Sarah?" I felt raazi MA hand on me. Did she heard?

"What did she say Sarah? Why are you looking like you saw death?" She asked confusedly.

"Nothing MA! She just said she likes this dress but she dream to wear golden dress. I think I may have gotten my periods. I need to check." I said.

"But, wasn't it too early for you?"

"I am not sure, just having a feeling. Let me use restroom!" I said and raaiza MA nodded taking the dress from my hand and I went to restroom asking the way from saleswomen.

Me? seducing Dev? Is she crazy? What have you fed everyone Roopa? But the way you talked earlier felt you were concerned about me. Was it Sushil? He said me to stay away......  my thoughts were stopped, hearing a knock. The person that came in was Roopa while I was expecting Shruti or someone else not her.

"Gowri aunty asked me to give you this, for you to use if you really are in periods." She said giving me a sanitary pad.

"Why could you say things to them like that about me?" I asked controlling my anger as I gripped the washbasin slab as to not hit her or anything for making me hear that word. She looked at my fist and gave me a Sorry look.

"Can I speak honestly as you appreciate it a lot?" She asked at me.

"I would have at the roopa I known. But, Can I expect honesty from you after what you made me hear?" I asked.

"It's up to you! Yes, I did said you are an poor orphan. Isn't that what you said us all too,  Wasn't it a truth?" She asked me back.

"In all honesty you know that I didn't meant that one!"

"In all honesty that's all I said. You think Ms. Harshi mehrota, daughter of business tycoon and princess of fortune world would appreciate you, a nobody beside her boyfriend or to be Her fiancé.

She is my cousin and I am not a nobody, but Mr. devdoot could never let me call him Dev as if I own him And you expect harshi would let you call him as if you own him? When She didn't like you address her by her first name basis.

Have you lost your mind Sarah? I did tried to explain you politely to shut it up as I thought you would have really learned a bit in internship. You wouldn't keep your mouth shut and yeah that got you to hear that.

Mr. Advith Vidal may have a great heart and could treat you friendly. How could you kiss him Sarah? I don't know what you are going to name it. Learn it, none would like to see some nobody kiss her date. That too when they are beside.

Mr. Devdoot May feel pity at you and let you call him dev as you have lost your family like him. All these people may have pity on you as you didn't have anyone. Whatever it is I don't care too.

It's up to you to take it or not. Don't get fooled even more by their friendliness and end up falling in love or scandal.
Your relationship can be good until you maintain your distance and know your standards, Sarah. Remember, You don't have money nor a family name to stand against."

She was cut by a knock and Shruti calling my name.

"I am just saying because I really know your friends care for you and they really don't deserve you. But, their friendship with you is what made them as gem in our eyes. Don't spoil something precious you have for expecting more!" With that said she unlocked the door and left the place smiling at Shruti as she gave her a glare and looked at me concernedly.

"Did she hurt you?" Shruti asked looking at me.

"No! No! She was actually helping by giving me a pad. I was just saying I didn't get my periods. She rolled eyeballs for making her run errands for waste and she left as you came by." I said as kept washing my face as I don't want to let her know I am crying.

I went out with SHruti giving me are you really saying truth. I just nodded at her faking a smile. I started to distract her asking about the dress.

"I like the dress for you and its your favourite colour too, Why don't you try this Sarah?" Gowri MA showed the dress I picked for harshi or Ms. Mehrota.

"I don't think, I .." I started. I heard people snicker and saw, roopa really said me the truth.

"You appreciated the dress a lot? What? afraid it is not good as you say and you will end up as joker?" Harshi whisper asked me as she took from Gowri MA And kept before me as if she is calculating.

"I don't think I am good for trail now. But, I really liked this from heart gowri ma, if the bride here is not interested as I don't want to let her leave an opportunity she had for it. I don't think there is any problem in me picking this now?" I asked showing my hand forwards as if to give it if you really don't want.
