Chapter 3: Party

"How long Swara?" Kavita yells as she places her hand on the washroom door.

"Give me a minute." Swara replies from inside.

Kavita sighs, taking her steps backwards and impatiently stared at the door. Waiting for Swara to walk out in the dress chosen by her. The door unbolts and swings open and Swara walks out in discomfort while pulling the dress down each time she took a step forward.

"Wow Swara! You're looking very pretty!" Kavita exclaims a compliment while Swara gazes at her.

"This is too much Kavita. I probably look like a joker and you're just saying I look pretty just to keep my heart. How do you girls even manage to roam around in this?"

Kavita walks forward, grabbing Swara's hand and pulling her towards the mirror, eventually turning her. "See how stunning you look. Trust me Swara, the girls are gunna burn and the boys are gunna be flat! On ground." Kavita truthfully chirps, excited to take Swara with her.

But Swara being Swara didn't believe a thing Kavita spilled out from her mouth, she believes Kavita is just saying this to make her feel less awkward.

________________
I know you all are dying to see her, fine, here's her party look:

________________

"No Kavita. . . I can't wear this. Please. It's too uncomfortable."

"Swara. . ." Kavita trials off, turning Swara towards her. "You look amazing! Now come, lets go." She continues, hurrying before Swara could change her mind.

"But. . "

"Swara, you worry too much. Where's that cool, bold and fearless Swara?" Kavita asks and Swara curves a frown, not knowing how to respond to that.

"Kavita. I want to change." Kavita sighs. "No time for that. We're already late. Come." Kavita hurries Swara and grabs her hand. Swara lets a sigh out from her mouth as Kavita began to drag her outside the room.

***

"You're looking dashing Sanskaar." Sahil compliments and Sanskaar smiles proudly.

"I'm sure Kavita would die seeing his looks." Sheesh, as a joke taunts which slowly compels Sanskaar's smile to fade.

"Whatever! I'm just excited to see that looser Swara. I can't wait to laugh at her and see people making fun of her. She'd probably walk in looking like a tramp." Sanskaar utters, releasing a small sigh of chuckle before completing his last sentence.

Sheesh and Sahil join his chuckle, Sahil's eyes fall at the entrance and he sees Kavita walk inside. "Oye look, there's Kavita." Sanskaar and Sheesh's gazes instantly move towards the entrance but their gazes were impatiently searching for one person, Swara.

"Where's Swara." Sanskaar mummers to himself.

Sheesh's jaws drop while Sahil's eyes widen. Sanskaar, who finally sees Swara walking out from behind Kavita freezes, slowly blinking in shock. He did not expect Swara to turn up like that, in-fact no one did. Swara could feel everyone's gazes on her and felt awkward.

'Did I make a mistake by coming here?' She thought to herself after meeting the eyes of everyone which were merely on her.

"She had a glow up." Sanskaar utters silently, which Sheesh and Sahil hear.

"A major one." Sheesh replies, blinking thrice to confirm he isn't hallucinating.

Sahil pinches Sanskaar and Sanskaar jumps out of the slowness caused by the shock. "Ahh! You idiot!" He remarks and Sahil blinks, turning his head towards Sanskaar.

"That means it's not a dream. She's. . . There for real." Sahil slowly responds after taking a gap, giving their eyes the opportunity to gaze at Swara again.

"Swara, is this you?" Few girls question and Swara curves a fake smile. "No no, I'm the prime minister aren't I?" Swara sarcastically responds and then forms serious expressions "Of course I'm Swara, by changing my dress I haven't become a Queen." She adds and Kavita gazes at the girls, who roll their eyes at Swara's words.

The girls walked away, feeling agitated with Swara's response. "Swara, take a chill." Kavita utters and before Swara could talk, Sanskaar approaches there.

"Only normal people could chill, jungly. . . Sorry, I mean wild people only know how to attack." He lowkey insults as he looks at Swara, Swara put for the 'haha not funny' expressions and merely stared at him.

Sanskaar then turns his head and gazes towards Kavita with a fake chuckle. "I'm joking." He lies, trying to act friendly and jokey with Kavita. Kavita curves a confused smile and was feeling slightly awkward to share a chuckle with him.

"Hi." Kavita responds and he could sense the discomfort in her voice. "Excuse us please." Kavita adds with a fake smile and walks away while holding Swara's hand.

"This Swara! She ruined the start to my love story." Sanskaar sighs in dismay as he stares at Swara leaving with Kavita.

He knew why Kavita was awkward around him, he knew this feeling rose within her due to Swara as Swara disclosed how he was flirting with more than one girl.

Swara and Kavita stop at the inbuilt bar, taking a seat on the swirly chairs. "One cocktail and one soft drink please." Kavita orders and the bartender nods, preparing himself to deliver the order.

"This is so boring." Swara complains, placing her hand on the black clean marble table.

"There would be Music in a second which will make this place go lit. Have patience."  Kavita explains, the drinks were ready and kept on the table.

"Hi Kavita." Before Kavita could take the drinks, she turns around and so does Swara, to find a boy standing there.

"Why are you sitting her, come join us." He utters and she sighs, shaking her head. "You enjoy. I don't want a headache from your girlfriend." Kavita replies and he chuckles.

"Come on Kavita, she won't say a word. I'll lip-lock her. Anyways, who's this?" He utters in response and looks at Swara.

His gazes lift as a boy drops white powder into the orange soft drink sneakily behind Swara and tiptoes away. "This is Swara, Swara this is Arun." Kavita introduces and Arun, the boy pretends to be shocked.

"Swara?" Swara rolls her eyes, facing the bartender while Kavita nods.

"Which ones the soft drink?" Swara asks and the bartender, who finishes serving the other costumers. He points at the orange drink and Swara takes it.

Arun curves a small hidden smirk which Kavita notices.

"Okay Kavita, I'll hopefully catch you later." Kavita nods while eyeing him suspiciously.

Arun walks towards his friends and shares a high five with the boy who dropped the powder in the drink. "Now Swara would have fun." He utters, pressing the word 'fun' to indicate something is going to happen.

"How?" They hear a voice and look to the side, seeing Sanskaar, Sheesh and Sahil.

***

The meeting room was packed as the men had filled the chairs, two businessmen, who were sat opposite each other conveyed their hatred for the latter from the glare they gave each other.

"The presentation from Maheshwari Empire and Gadodia Empire was magnificently outstanding but I'm afraid the contract was discussed and decided to be given to one of the empire." A man, after clearing his throat utters in a silent room.

Durga Prasad Maheshwari and Shekhar Gadodia, two family and business rivals, glance at the man, who was ready to signify the winner of the contract.

"We had taken this decision on the basis of financial control and we think Mr Maheshwari had the best one, so we would like to declare Mr Maheshwari as the winner of this contract."

Shekhar clenches his fist while Durga Prasad proudly raises his head, feeling the happiness of defeating his rival was indeed the best one for him. It was empowering but he needed to control it. Slow claps of the renaming men had Durga Prasad realising the file was being given to him. He grabbed it and nodded at the man.

"Well done Mr Maheshwari." The man congratulates and Durga Prasad inhales a sigh of relief, nodding his head instead of uttering the word 'thank you'.

"Bade Papa, there's a mistake with the finances." Sanskaar says as he looks at the presentation on Durga Prasad's laptop screen.

"As if you know anything better. How can you be so sure? I rechecked this file and everything was normal."

"Adarsh. . ." Durga Prasad trialled off hushing his elder son Adarsh. "Let him speak." He adds, willing to listen to Sanskaar.

"Bade Papa, your opponent wouldn't defeat you by the display, project or design, he would defeat you through finances. See how much you're willing to spend on oil, try lowering the price. If you can pay the labours 2 Lakh for 1000l of tank, then you could get 10 tanks for less than what you will be wasting. Think about it, it'll save you 2 crores." Sanskaar explains and then receives a call.

"Excuse me." He excuses himself and walks out.

Durga Prasad looks at the file and then at the presentation. He glances at Adarsh. "Do the research now." Adarsh nods at the order and starts to research.

Durga Prasad was brought out from his thoughts by the sound of a phone call. His eyes fall on the seat Shekhar was sat on and sees it empty.

"Thank you Sanskaar." Durga Prasad finally mummers to himself and then shakes hands with the people walking towards him to congratulate him.

***

"You'll know soon. . ." Arun trails off and Sanskaar creases his forehead.

Swara, who finishes the glass of soda feels different, her head starts to throb and her vision slightly and slowly goes a little blurry. Swara touches her head immediately and sees everything spinning. She formed an irritated expressions and stands up, stumbling back. Kavita hears a sound and turns, looking at Swara stumbling with her hand on her head.

Sanskaar turns along with the rest and see Swara running out from the place.

"Shoot! Where is she going?! She can't leave like that." Arun shockingly utters and confuses Sanskaar even more.

"Why? What happened?"

"Dude. . . We drugged her. I swear if anything happens to her. . ." Arun trailed off and then swallowed his spit.

Sanskaar releases a long sigh, shaking his head in disbelief and unwillingly, after battling with his mind, rushes out. Kavita was confused and walks towards Arun.

"What did I not see?" She asks, not being able to understand but seeing Sanskaar rushing out, she assumed Swara running out was linked.

To Be Continued . . .

Up Next - Dil Diyan Gallan. . . Swara was sat with few drunkards. They insisted to hear her sing as she told them her small story. Sanskaar reaches there. . .
