Start from the beginning
                                    

She sighs deeply and asks, "How long is the journey going to be for?"

"Hardly 40 minutes." Ariv says from the passenger seat.

"Oh! Hi! I didn't see you." She greets noticing him with a smile.

"Hi!" He greets back and the journey goes on in silence.

At Anshuman's Home 🏡 :
(Backside of the house, in the lawn.)

"So finally your daughter came back home?" Says Karuna's high school best friend making her shock dramatically.

"And finally you got time for your friend!" She taunts as soon as she notices her best friend, Adhiraj who was standing behind her thinking of an excuse. "Say! What's your excuse this time?" She asks him with a fake bright smile. But he shrugs off saying nonchalantly, "What excuse? I was busy!"

She narrows her eyes at him when he stares at her with a blank face and then suddenly says with a crying face, "I'm sorry yaar! Trust me! कल ही मुंबई से आया हूँ यार! मेरी वाइफ तो ऑलरेडि नाराज़ है, अब तुम तो मत हो! तुम तो हाई स्कूल से जानती हो मुझे!" He says pleading like a kid making the youngsters laugh out aloud at his sudden change of expressions.

[ Translation : "I'm sorry yaar! Trust me! I have come from Mumbai only yesterday! My wife is already angry, now you don't! You know me from high school!" ]

The entire family is present in the big lawn with close family friends, all present there for the party and waiting for the special person to come, for whom the party is held specially, out of nowhere.

Every close friend and family is present whoever could make it in the town.

Karuna glares at him earning some giggles from the young group.

"अच्छा वो सब तो ठीक है but वो कहाँ है जिसके लिए ये पार्टी अचानक रखी गयी है?" Asks Mrs. Kavita Sharma, Adhiraj's wife.

[ Translation : "Well that's all right, but where is the one for whom this party has been arranged all of a sudden?" ]

"Yeah, where is Nishu?" Asks 20 years old, college boy, a curious Rahul Sharma, Adhiraj's son. He is so curious, in fact everyone present there in the party is so curious about the youngest child of the Khurrana family because they have been hearing about her from years from her mother or other family adults but never met her. Moreover, they are curious to know her as she has been living in different countries hiding her location for the sake of security reasons.

"लो, आ गई!" Arushi says with excitement loudly for others to hear.

[ Translation : "Oh! She is here!" ]

All heads turn to the big curvy entrance gate which leads to a gallery, leading towards the main door of the house directly.

A teenage girl of 5'5 height enters in the lawn getting everyone's attention.
She is wearing a casual checkered shirt with the combination of dark blue and red color with sleeves folded till her elbows. A black jeans is hugging her skin well showing her curves. She had a casual black watch on her left hand wrist. Her curly hair are open as she liked them. Some curls were playing with the wind without disturbing her vision due to hair few clips here and there. She is wearing white sneakers with black colored outline combination and simple earrings with a light pinkish lip balm. She was looking adorable yet professional.
