She felt bad to be separated from Preeti though. The only person who understood her like no one.

" Come let me get you ready." Ishita led her to the vanity table.

" you're such a convincing friend." Paro smiled genuinely this time.

Ishita's eyes sparkled with delight, and she wasted no time in getting Paro ready for the evening. She opened her makeup box with an array of cosmetics and brushes. Picking up a foundation brush, Ishita began expertly applying a light layer of makeup, skillfully accentuating Paro's natural beauty.

As she worked, Ishita chattered away, her voice a soothing melody. 

"Paro, I'll make sure you'll glow like an angel.

Paro couldn't help but smile, the weight of her apprehensions gradually melting away under Ishita's care. She watched as her reflection transformed, her features enhanced, yet still maintaining her unique charm.

Next, Ishita moved to Paro's hair, deftly twirling strands around a curling iron and setting them into place. Lastly, she made her put shiny crystal earrings, adding a touch of shimmer that caught the light with each movement.

Finally, as the last finishing touches were applied, Ishita stepped back and admired her handiwork. Paro gazed at herself in the mirror, her eyes widening in astonishment. 

She looked stunning—a vision of grace and elegance.

"You look absolutely breathtaking, Paro, damn I have to keep all the boys away from you." 

Ishita exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine awe.

Only if she could!

"Thank you, Ishita," 

she whispered, her voice filled with genuine warmth.

 "I can't believe how much you've done for me tonight.

Let's go. I'm ready to face the world."

 She said more to herself than Ishita.

" Where's everyone else? Your uncle and aunt?" Ishita asked.

" Oh, they have already left,"

 Paro said while coming out of the room.

 Linking arms, they made their way to the door, ready to deal with the night together.

As they stepped into the starlit night, Ishita's excitement was palpable, her laughter infectious. Paro, still hesitant, couldn't help getting anxious.

She was afraid of what would emerge again from the depths of uncertainty.

………………

The grand ballroom was transformed into a dazzling haven of celebration for the Malhotra Industries party. The room was bathed in soft, warm lighting, casting a golden glow over the elegant decor. 

Glistening chandeliers hung from the high ceilings, their crystal droplets scattering the light and creating mesmerizing reflections on the walls. The air was filled with a delightful blend of laughter, lively conversations, and the melodic strains of a talented live band.

Adi, dressed impeccably in a tailored suit, couldn't help but cast anxious glances around the room, his eyes searching for a glimpse of a particular person. 

His heart raced with anticipation, and time seemed to slow down as he eagerly waited for her arrival. Each passing moment felt like an eternity, heightening his yearning to see her.

 Conversations buzzed around him, mingling with the rhythmic beats of music.

With a bored face he saw a few figures that  got into the room.

But  amidst the crowd, his eyes were suddenly drawn to that one girl, 

entering the room —Paro.

 Her flowing gown cascaded gracefully around her, accentuating her slender figure, and her auburn hair tresses framed her face in gentle waves.

Adi's gaze locked onto Paro, unable to tear his eyes away from her. The world around him seemed to fade into the background as he drank in the sight of her.

 The way she was looking around in awe with her large brown orbs and the way her every movement emanated grace and elegance, he couldn't get enough of that.

As Paro and Ishita made their way through the crowd the temporary spell that was cast on him was gone. 

Adi's heart suddenly swelled with possessiveness as he saw she was pulling the attention in the room other than his.

 He promised himself once more that Paro was meant to be his, that no other person could capture her heart the way he believed he could. 

The intensity of his feelings heightened, and he silently vowed to make her see his true intentions on their date, to win her over in every way possible despite any obstacles that lay in their path.

The room buzzed with excitement as guests mingled, clinking glasses filled with champagne and indulging in delectable appetizers that were served by waitstaff gliding gracefully through the crowd. The atmosphere was one of success, achievement, and a glorious future.

Adi took a step forward, his eyes never leaving Paro's form as she engaged in conversation with Ishita. 

He navigated through the sea of guests, his determination evident in his stride. It was as if the universe had conspired to bring them together at that moment, and he was ready to seize the opportunity to take a step ahead to make Paro his own.
