Shivagya Vyas
I honestly think that life is so unfair, maybe that's the reason why I am standing here , in the middle of the road with my friends trying to get a cab or rickshaw to the main building of Shekhawat group of hotels where the meeting is supposed to take place as our car broke this morning.
"It's all your fault Neel" I say frustrated
"Whoaa girl! How is it my fault?"
" Can't you take care of your fucking car properly?"
"He would have , if he had the time , because more than half of his day was spent in taking care of someone else " said Jiya with a mischievous look in her eyes
Neel's face could have given competition to tomato when he heard her statement
"Shut up! You know what , I will arrange a cab for you three and take this bloody car to a nearby garage, I am not required there anyways " he said
"Yeah nice idea!" Pranali said and that's what we do
.

We arrived at the Mr Shekhawat 's office, and it was magnificent, it just made me more suspicious about sudden intrest in a small restaurant
Jiya wore an annoyed expression throughout our way here
"Oyy tujhe kya ho gaya abh?" (What happened to you now?) I asked her as pranali was leading our way in
"Nothing" I raised an eyebrow at her
She sighed and said "will tell you later"
We reached the reception where a lady greeted us respectfully
"Mam please wait in the office, sir will be here soon "
"You know what , you both wait here and meet me at the parking after completing this meeting. I would be bored here "
Jiya said
"No nope not happening! You can't just go away after coming here , we need you to give your opinions during the meeting "
Pranali said
"But... " She started but I cut her in middle
"No buts, you are not going anywhere and this is final"
I don't know why but she is acting like this since morning....
We were sitting in this office when the doors opened and then walked in a handsome man , may be 2 - 3 years older than us...
He nodded towards us and sat on his chair
"I am Agastya Singh Shekhawat, owner of this place , take a seat so we can start the meeting "
Soon me and Pranali too introduced ourselves
I looked towards Jiya only to find her glaring towards Mr. Shekhawat , they both were having an intense staring session or should I say glaring session for Jiya
Pranali cleared her throat to snap them out of their cute little moment and we started the meeting ....
I can clearly see throughout the meeting that the restaurant is not that important for him , it's almost like some one forced him in this...
After discussing terms and conditions we decided to seal this deal just when Jiya stopped us
"We will sign the deal Mr Shekhawat but first can I know why you are suddenly so interested in a restaurant that you yourselves decided to be present during this small deal ?"
Mr Shekhawat just glanced at her , she has been quiet throughout the meeting, but her question is what I wanted to ask from a long time, she just put forward my queries we really are best friends....
"I don't think it's necessary for you to know that , but to answer you, it's something personal, a very good friend of mine has developed an attachment with your restaurant and it's design , I am just doing this for him. Also this is going to benefit me a lot . I hope you are satisfied....with my answer Ms Sharma" he answered with straight face
Okayy acceptable
Wait a minute, Jiya never introduced herself , THEY KNOW EACH OTHER ALREADY ...
"Of course Mr Shekhawat, let's get over with it " she replied him
We signed the contract and I can still sense some kind of tension between them ...
" Mr Shekhawat I think we should take our leave , We are really looking forward to working with you " he nodded at my words and we
We exited his office and I mumbled in Jiya 's ear "Nice choice my dear Jiyuu , he is hot"
Her head snapped at me with wide eyes as she exclaimed
"WHAT THE FVCK ARE YOU SAYING !"
Some people at the corridor gave us that 'don't irritate us ' kinda look and we apologised
Pranali decided to intervene our conversation
"You knew Mr Shekhawat already?"
"Yeah , he is just a acquaintance of my family"
Jiya grumbled
Pranali nodded her head and started walking out of the building
I gave Jiya that 'I don't believe you ' look and she said
"He is the same Agastya, the 'perfect child' , his uncle was my mum's old neighbour"
"He is the one your mom taunts you about?" I asked
"Yeah "
I smiled mischievously and whispered in her ear
"Spicy! Also this enemies to lovers troupe is quite famous nowadays "
"Shiva I will kill you " she gritted her teeth
I just showed my innocent smile to her and asked
"What did I do ?"
"Ughh Nothing! You did nothing! Let's go"
She replied and we went out of the building
Third Person POV
The three girls were waiting for Neel to pick them up , another car entered the Shekhawat building.
Abhimanyu just ended a call with his assistant when he noticed three girls standing on the roadside, seemingly waiting for someone
He was about to glance at their faces when his best mate's call intervened,
"Hello"
"Shut up , hello ke bache , I told you to be present here in the meeting, where the hell are you?"
"Don't shout at me Agastya, Maa sa stopped me , again that same lecture about getting married and settling in life etc etc"
"Looks like you already got your punishment, let it be then "
"I am at your company's entrance "
"Then return back , meeting already ended"
He grumbled , but obviously, Abhi ignored that and ended the call
He entered Agastya's office and saw him gazing outside the window at something or someone...
He cleared his throat to inform Agastya about his presence
Agastya came out of his trance and passed the signed contract papers of restaurant to Abhimanyu
Abhimanyu checked the papers which were signed by restaurant's owner , Pranali Aggarwal
"How was the meeting?"
"Better that your blind date with one of the daughters of your mother's friend "
He replied grinning cockily
"Stop taking joy in my misery, you asshole " I said
"I am your best friend, what else am I supposed to do?"
"Shut your mouth up Agastya" he groans and both the friends started enjoying their time together, the rare moments without any stress or pressure of keeping their loved ones safe , unaware of the storm that is going to enter in their life in upcoming few years...

Shivagya was packing her clothes as they are leaving for Udaipur today.
Jiya was also there, helping her
They both were screaming their favourite songs while packing when Shivagya's phone rang , it was her mom , she answered it , and soon her hands started shivering
"I coming there right now, don't worry mamma , everything will be alright" saying this she ended the call, and started dialing Neel's number
Jiya was worried about her friend, seeing her like this
She took the phone from her hand and made her sit on a nearby couch
She called Neel and pranali who were in their respective rooms , packing their stuffs and started calming Shivagya before she have a panic attack
Neel and Pranali barged into the room and then finally Shivagya started talking
"It was my mother , my Papa had an accident, he is in hospital, in critical condition.I have to go there as soon as possible, Bhai is also not there , mamma and bhabhi are alone , handling everything. Also I want to be with my Papa . Neel please arrange a train ticket for me "
"You are not going alone Shiva , we all will come with you " he replied
Shivagya frowned and shook her head
"No one is going to come with me , especially you Neel , Jyoti aunty is so excited to spend time with you after 5 years , also she invited all of us to enjoy our vacations in Udaipur, you all will go to Udaipur and spend your vacations with Rajawat family. I will try to join you all as soon as the situation gets better"
She said in a very serious tone , and when Shivagya is serious, you all better stay away from her .
There is no point in arguing with a serious Shivagya
They all decided to go with her plan and dropped her off at the railway station before starting their journey to Udaipur
Shivagya was sitting at her seat gazing outside , waiting for the train to start when she felt someone sitting infront of her.
She was shocked to see Jiya sitting infront of her with a mischievous grin
"The fvck Jiya ! What are you doing here?"
"Accompanying my best friend to our home town"
"No nonsense Jiya, I told you to go to Udaipur"
"And you think I will listen to you?"
"Whyy Jiyaa?"
"We pranked everyone together, laughed together, enjoyed every small moment of our school and college life together, now it is only fair if we cry and fight in this difficult situation together" jiya replied and Shivagya had tears in her eyes
"Also I am not third wheeling those idiots alone , I would have died out of boredom " she joked to lighten up the situation
Shivagya just launched herself on her and said
"We will always be with each other in every situation Jiya , we will always fight together, that's what friends are for"
None of them knew how their strong bond is going to defeat their many monsters in future...
Meanwhile at unknown location
.
.
.
A man was on a phone call sitting in a room half filled with many computers and beautiful pictures of random things
"It's time for the princess to claim her birth right and that's the start of these people getting their karma, I will make sure they face the consequences of their actions...
Few days more , then we are getting our plan in action, got it?"
"Yes boss"
He ended the call and looked at the ceiling with his blood shot eyes and started muttering ...
"I will make sure they see all their dreams crumbling infront of their eyes"....
