Neiv's POV:

'Guys are we leaving today??? It's already   10:30 am!!! We were supposed to leave by 5 ammmmmmm'

I yelled out for the nth+1 time since this morning!!! 🙄😤😒

I was really not getting the point of wasting my weekend with this 😒 'Stupid unimaginable picnic'

Oh ohhhh waitttt...

Faaaaaamily picnic!!!

Ughhh!!!

I just don't know why was this stupid thing even planned suddenly...

We were supposed to be going for a Wildlife Safari !!!

Yeah!!! To Bandipur Tiger Reserve!!!

There was cuchi puchi everywhere 🙄

My dad with my mom - The epic Devil romance 🙏

Bela Masi with Mahir uncle - Always the 'cute cute cuddly puddly' couple 😒

Archit uncle and Pooja aunty, Rony uncle and Kisha aunty - 'We follow our friends in romance' couple!

To this now there were additions!!!

Yeah ..

Malu-Vansh & yeah ofcourse!!! Aaru-Mihir 🤷🙆🤦

And I have never bloody understood what happens to people once they fall in love 😒

They stick to each other like lizard 🦎 sticks on a wall 🧱 Ewwwww 🤢

The only two people punctual here right now are

Myself

&

Chaahat

And Chaahat was so tired of waiting since morning 5 am that she slept on the living room sofa and was snoring like a lionesses!!!

Cute though ❤️

I so regretted not going to the Pondicherry trip planned by Musky, Disha and Maan.

This was my 4th cup of coffee since morning!!!

While I heard Chaahat get up lazily and ask
..

'Have they finally come????'

To which I was fuming now!!!

I stood up at once!!!

'Thats it!!! That's damn it!!! Get up Chaah!!!

I shook her while she woke up...

'Whattttttt' she yelled...

I knew she was annoyed too!!!

'Guys listen... I don't care you all are couples, you guys have to kiss or smooch each other....I'm done waiting for you all
..
You guys can come in your respective cars!

Thanks to you folks having a 'Great Time sense' our wildlife Safari planning has drained down the gutter!

I definitely don't want to miss the delicious RR biryani in Mysore for lunch nor my plan to watch the Mysore palace and neither the evening fountain show 😠😠😠

You guys have fun with your respective partners!!!

I'm taking Chaahat and leaving from here!!!'

While I was interrupted by a familiar voice...

'Hey Hey Heyyyy where toooo'

And I turned around and was shocked to see Rony uncle and Kisha aunty's daughter Maera Di along with a tall and cheerful man.

While Maera Di came and hugged me and Chaahat as she was eldest of us childhood buddies. Today Maera Di was a popular actress.

Although I wondered who the guy was!!!

Chaahat's POV:

My eyes popped out seeing two of my favorites in front of my eyes...

Maera Di hugged me and I was so overwhelmed meeting her after so long...

But the surprise quotient additionally was Saaru...

Saaru as in Saaransh Malhotra!

My friend, my classmate!

He was equally excited seeing me.

He hugged me tightly and I hugged him back...

'What a pleasant surprise 😁' I hugged him again...

'Wellll Sexy lady... Business it is!!! Again!!! I've started my dream venture of  'Saanjh' my own jewellery brand.

Maera is my model for it... the ad will be produced by your uncle Mr Yuvraj Sehgal' he said and I was very happy for him.

I knew what this business meant for him. Although born to one of Asia's Richest businessman he wanted to make it on his own!!!

'Im proud of you Saru' I smiled hugging him...

'Thank you Sexy lady!' he said..

While Maera Di introduced him to Neiv...

'Neiv...meet Saransh Malhotra, Saransh this is Neiv Kapoor'

To which Neiv shook hands with Saru...

Saru quickly smiled saying 'Who doesn't know you Mr Kapoor... One of India's finest designers and yeah the hottest Casanova, lady's man indeed!' he said...

I don't know why hearing all that I suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable!!!

To which Neiv tied his face tightly and said...
'Yep I know... I'm the hottest!!! But sorry never heard of you... infact never saw you... anyways not everyone is Neiv Kapoor right!!!' he said in a cocky manner!!!

Ufff!!! This man and his self obsession!

For a second his eyes met mine...I rolled my eyes!!!

But I felt his deep gaze on me!

I chose to ignore...

And looked at Saru and Maera Di saying...

'Hey we are planning a picnic...join us!!!'

To which Saru raised his hands saying
'We just came to meet say hi to Maera's parents...we have the ad shoot at the Palace Gardens of Mysore and Balamuri falls...' he said...

And I jumped to hug him again...
'What an awesome co incidence... we are also going to Mysore now...join us...pleeeeeeease...pretty pleeeeeeease with sugar on top and garnished with cherry and chocolate syrup' I said while both Di and Saru burst out laughing 😂

They agreed and we all were laughing except that one Drama-Devil 😏

Who cares!!!

Thankfully everyone finally got ready and came down...

While everyone decided who would go with whom...

I held Saru and Maera Di's hand's saying...

'Im coming with them... There's so much to talk'

To which Dev uncle said...

'Yeah I guess friends should make gangs'

Chaah, Neiv, Maera and our new Buddy Saaransh can take a car.

Aaru, Mihir, Malu, Vansh can come in one.

Rony, Kisha, Archit, Pooja can come in one.

Myself, Ishu, Behir would come in other.

I was excited as I would get to talk to my old buddies...

However I felt two eyes continuously shooting at me...

I ignored it 😏

Soon we boarded the car while all three of us sat on the backseat and began laughing...

'Im not moving...aaaahhhh' I started whining like a baby...

'Neither me..'

'Nor meeee'

While we three were fighting like kids... The only man sitting like a grumpy uncle was him!

Mr Neiv 'Drama-Devil' Kapoor!!!

He had worn goggles and sat on the drivers seat like a sadist!

I wonder why was he on a serious mode on today...

While Maera Di said...
'Neiv...you don't want to fight for backseat??? Remember in childhood you and Chaahat would pull each other's hair to just get into the backseat all alone everytime Dev or Mahir uncle would choose to go for a drive'

To which I looked at Maera Di and laughed out loud...
'Diiii you still call him Dev??? Not uncle???'

'Uncle my foot...he's my Dev...Trust me if I was born in his generation and was in my 60's... I would have definitely married him instead of Ishu aunty...'

I started laughing loudly, while Saru joined in...

But seems like Devil's offspring didn't like the Devil joke...

Drama Devil 😏

'Neiiiiv...why are you so grumpy? Don't want the backseat?' Maera Di asked...

'Neiv Kapoor is all grown up now Di... I don't prefer backseat!  I prefer to be in front! I drive! I choose my destination!
I don't fight these silly things!!!' he said and started moving his car slowly...

'Hey Heyyyy Neiv...wait...you are not our driver... Looks like Saru and Chaah need their 'We-Time' ..let me shift front with you'  Maera Di said and she shifted to the passenger seat.

While I looked at him via rear mirror and although I felt he was looking at me...I couldn't really say...as he was wearing black goggles.

Soon our journey began...

Our first destination was RR Biryani the most famous in Mysore.

We reached first and made sure to settle in the AC section...this place is usually crowded due to its crowd but as Mysore is his mom's (Ishu aunty's) hometown, we managed to get seats reserved.

Soon our family members joined in and we ordered the delicious biryani.

I sat next to Saru and I'm a hypocrite when it comes to eating biryani...I eat chicken biryani without chicken. I mean I'm a fake vegetarian 😂

I love the khuska rice and I needed someone to remove the chicken pieces from it and I would happily devour the biryani.

Usually MyPie or SonaPie would do that for me...but as they sat two tables away from us...

Saru offered to help me. He not just seperated chicken from my biryani... He offered to feed me too
..
I started laughing loudly while suddenly our loud laughter was interrupted by the man sitting opposite to me...

'Can a person eat his meal peacefully or shall I shift on another table???' he asked angrily...

Although it was for me...he looked at his banana leaf that still had 3/4th of the biryani in it.

The way he screamed at me ...All our family and friends looked at him.

I almost had tears in my eyes.

But I was more angry now!

The hell Chaah Garewal doesn't cry!!!🥺😠😤

Huhhh!!!

But to hide tears in my eyes I ate a few chillies...

While Saru shouted at me...
'Chaah...stop...you have zero tolerance to spice...you idiot... ' held the crook of my neck and mouthed the cold mineral water bottle to my lips...

I gulped a few ounces while my eyes were shooting at the pair of Russet Brown Devil Orbs...who kind of melted a bit seeing my tears maybe...

But next second began stuffing more Biryani into his mouth like a...

Like a ..

Devil!!!

No wonder 😡🤬👿

Soon we finished our meal and we decided to go to our next destination.

Looks like most of them here had seen the Palace so we decided to go to Palace Gardens to see the shooting where Maera Di would be modeling.

Everyone agreed to it except one man who was stubborn that he wants to see the palace!

Yeah! The reason I call him Drama Devil!

For god's sake...he must have seen the Palace N + 1 times... Mysore was the place where his mom was from...

Every summer vacation and every Dasara vacation Neiv Drama Devil Kapoor would visit Mysore. He can probably turn a tourist guide here but no! Hell no!
This stubborn man was hell-bent...

When Dev uncle also told him the shooting is a better plan...

He got up and started walking alone saying...

'He will visit the palace alone!!! And is not interested in shooting!'

I couldn't understand his problem in life.

He assured Maera Di that he will join in for the musical fountain show and that they can finish the shooting here as well as at Balamuri.

Even though everyone tried to convince him like a spoilt sport he went to visit the palace alone!

I rolled my eyes thinking such a party pooper he is!!! 😏
