     Everything had begun. The men and kids were outside the woman we're getting their henna done while We sang. Aleena and Haider sat together on the sofa. Rohail, Noor, Ahil, Zoha, and Saad sat on the floor along with me. We were in a circle. I was sitting near Aleena while Saad was sitting across from me near Haider.

We started singing random Bollywood songs which probably don't even classify as mehndi songs. Their were 3 dholkis. Saad Noor and Rohail had them.

     "Tuje dhekha to yeh jana sanam" Noor started singing and we all tagged along
     "pyaar hota he devana sanam" Saad wasn't singing he was humming and playing the dholki.
After we were done  Aleena offered a song.
     "I have one" Aleena said clapping her hand together.
     "Tu mileya by darshan raval" she says.
So we all started singing. Rohail led us.
     "mainu rab mileya Sab mileya Jan tu mileya mainu" we alll sand along.

     "Saad you haven't sang its your turn" Noor insisted.
He looked at me for a hot second then started singing.
     "Hmmm.." he began.

    "Kaise, jiunga kaise?" He closed his eyes and started beating the dholki in slow beat and we followed along.
I was drumming on my legs.
      "Kaise, jiyunga Kaise? Bataa de mujhko tere binaa" everyone went quite, he's voice was a gem, so Hot! I thought.
It was so mesmerizing.
     "Tera mera jahan, Le chalun main wahaan, Koi tujhko na mujhse chura le, Rakh loon aankhon mein main, Kholun palke na main, Koi tujhko na mujhse chura le"

He opened his eyes and looked straight at me while everyone was looking at him. He deepened his voice.
   "Main andheron se ghira hoon, Aa dikha de tu mujhko savera mera. Main bhatakta ik Musafir, Aa dila de tu mujhko basera mera" he repeated the last line and then stopped and we all clapped for him.

Expect me. I was thinking about the lyrics and how he was looking straight at me I felt chills all over and heat rising up my cheeks.

     "Now it's your turn" Aleena says looking at me very mischievously.
     "No no way" I say backing out.
     "Aw come on daniya don't be a party pooper" Rohail says.
     "Ugh fine". Suddenly I don't feel so good.
I honestly don't want to sing infront of them. But without any choice I begin.

     "Dhire dhire hole hole pass dheko koi dill ke araha" I close my eyes then open them and repeat looking straight at Saad.
     "Hone laga he dheko bewajai wo mujpe meherban" I repeat and Saad smirking at me then starts going on beat with his drum.  
     "Meherbani Teriii, hogi muj be bari ankho se yun na kar tu aisi shayari" I sing smirking back at him. Then they all join in.

After I finish the song I go and grab my camera. They continue singing as I take pictures of them. Then Haider starts singing the "tum hi ho" song. He looks at Aleena as to say that he's dedicating it to her.

"Hum tere bin ab reh nahi sakte
Tere bina kya wajood mera?
Hum tere bin ab reh nahi sakte
Tere bina kya wajood mera?
Tujhse juda gar ho jayenge
To khudse hi ho jayenge juda"
he sings so nicely.
Aleena can't stop smiling like a fool. I take a picture of them. I look up and see how Saad's smiling at Aleena, so beautifully. I focus my camera on him and take pics of him.

"Kyunki tum hi ho, ab tum hi ho
Zindagi ab tum hi ho
Chain bhi, mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqi, ab tum hi ho" we all sing this part.
Saad looks at me as he sings literally smirking. Making me blush.

After that we all go and grab our food and sit down. When we are done eating the guys leave since they don't like the smell of henna. I get mine done very fully.
     "Danii come here I want to do something in you mendhi " Aleena says and I obey her and go sit beside her so she can add her detail in it.
Once she's done her henna artist comes and does hers.

     "I want Haiders name in my mendhi" she says making us all laugh.

I look and my hand which now looks like an art work. I hadn't seen what Aleena had done on my hand so I look at the spot she was working at. At to my surprise this idiot has written Saad's name. My heart drops. If someone sees this I'm dead I think. But it's too late because my mendhi is all dry.

I go the washroom and start washing my hands. Behind me saad enters and wants to wash his oily hands. He slides his hands over mine and starts washing them. After his hands are clean he slowly grabs my hands and starts scrubbing the dry mendhi off with water. My back against his chest he's arms around me. And my heart beating in sync with his. His lips close near my ear.
     "I didn't know you believe in stuff like these" he says as he stops still holding my hand and looking at me. I look at him through the mirror.
   "What stuff" I say completely lost. He smirks and looks at my hand where Aleena had written his name.
