__________

Tia's attire for university was totally opposite to the kind of attire she sports at home.

At home, she was the perfect daughter-in-law of a royal family who wears gorgeous designer sarees with exquisite jewelries.

But for university, she would wear kurtis with long kotis or maxi gowns just like any common university-going girl. She would only wear her engagement ring and simple earrings in the name of jeweleries for university.

Dressed up for going to the university, Tia was combing her hair. Arjun was searching for something in the bedside table drawer.

"Tia, I can't find my watch," Arjun slams the cupboard door closed.

Tia keeps her comb down and takes out the watch from the bedside table drawer and hands him.

"Handkerchief?" he says buckling the watch around his wrist.

She takes out the handkerchief from the cupboard and forwards it to Arjun. When Arjun was about to take it, she pulls the handkerchief back.

"At the time of the deal I was told that we won't be husband-wife in true sense. Then why do I have to take care of your watch, handkerchied and etc like your wife?" she says with narrowed eyes. "Mr. Prince, I hope you are not changing your mind ," she put the handkerchief on his hand.

Arjun ignored her and continued to buckle the watch. Tia rolled her eyes and went back to combing her hair.

"When's the Fresher's Party?" Arjun asked casually.

"Uff, Gayatri... ", she sighed. "I had forbidden her to tell you anything!" she was annoyed.

"What did Gayatri do?" he was confused.

"Gayatri did not say anything to you?" she continued because he nodded negatively, "Then how did you know?"

"Why would I not know? I have also done my graduation, every university organizes Freshers' Party for the new batch."

"Oo. But why do you want to know?"

"Because... Uss hisaab se hume time manage karna parega na.", he said as if it was very obvious.

She stopped hearing him and turned back.

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean by what? "

"Tum fresher's party mein jaoge?", she said with crossed arms.

"Why? Don't you want to go? "

"I wasn't going to go.... ", she said in embarrassment.

"Oh. Okay, good for me. Fine, don't go," he said putting his coat on.

"No, no, no! I will go, I will go! "

"Fine," he shrugged his shoulders and left the room.

As soon as he left, "YES!!" she jumped in the air in excitement.

Arjun, who was still outside the door, smiled hearing her squeal.

Night of the Fresher's Party

Tia comes out of the washroom, rubbing her hair with the towel. She rummages her wardrobe to find a dress to wear for the party when her phone rang.
