Kajal was packing her luggage in a hurry when her phone ringed. She picked it.

"Kajal where are you now..... Have you packed everything properly...... Did you have breakfast"...... Mrs. Meera asked on phone.

" Mummy .....mummy... Chill... Yes I've eaten and my luggage is also ready... Why you're so tensed there's still time left in my flight ".... Kajal said

" What to do beta.. Bachhi ho na... Islie darr lagta hai"... Mrs. Meera said worriedly.

(You're kid.. That's why we are tensed)

"Uggghh Mummy for God sake I'm not a kid I'm gonna turned 19 after two days"..... Kajal said with a scowl.

" Hmm.... I know everything but you'll always remain a kid for all of us...now stop talking and come fast".... Mrs. Meera said.

"Yeah.... Mummy I'm so excited to meet my new jiju..... I've heard that he's very hot".... Kajal said grinning.

" Chupp.... Ese bolte hai bado ke bare me...... Tu ghar aa tujhe batati hu".... Mrs. Meera warned her and disconnected the call.

(Shut up don't say like this about elders... You come home.. I'll teach you a lesson)

Kajal kept the phone in her purse smilingly and made her way to the airport.

Kajal was the younger daughter of Mr. &Mrs.Srivastava.... The Apple of the eye of the entire family. She was studing in Darjeeling Boarding School. Now she's coming back to her home for her elder sister's engagement. She is having her birthday on the same day

******

The moment Kajal's plane landed and she saw her family.... Her elder sister Panchhi hugged her tightly.

"Chhoti.....i missed you so much....How are you dear??.. Panchhi asked hugging her.

" I missed you too...Now I'm ok di".... Kajal said and pulled out of the hug to embrace her mother.

Mrs. Meera hugged her daughter tightly and kissed her forehead and said, "sorry beta... Your papa can't make it today because.....

" Because he is in a meeting... Right Mummy ".... Kajal completed her line.

Kajal sniggered and said, " Why will he come Mummy... Obviously.... Coming here will never gave him anything.

"Kajal.... Mind your tongue before I slap you hard... Is this the way to talk about your father"..... Mrs. Meera scolded her furiously.

When Panchhi observe that the matter is getting serious she said, " Mummy let's go home.... Chhoti must be tired and hungry.. ... Chhoti I've made your favorite brownies today "

Kajal's face immediately glowed by the name of brownies..... She is a big foodie but still lean.

*******

After having a stomach full of lunch and brownies Kajal was laying on her sister's bed and panchhi was moving her fingers in her hairs when Kajal asked, "Achha di..... What about your California fashion hunt contest..... They didn't replied yet???

Panchhi's finger stopped and she became stiff. Kajal shaked her with closed eyes asking her to continue her caressing in her hairs.

" Woh.... Actually... They... They didn't replied yet"... Panchhi said stammering.

Kajal sat up in front of her and asked, "six months and they didn't replied yet hmmm..... Anyways..what is this hurry hurry concept of engagement and marriage...... You're getting engaged day after tomorrow and after another week only you'll get married..... Why so??

Panchhi was looking nowhere with a serious expression. Kajal shaked her shoulder and her trance broke.

" Huh... Yeah... It was happening like this because apart from these dates...

There no auspicious date next three years"..... Panchhi said with a dull face.

******

Everyone got ready and went to venue for engagement. Kajal didn't saw her brother in law still now. Earlier she was excited to know that he's handsome... But the moment she knew that he is also a business man like her father and it's an arrange marriage setup by her father.... She started hating him already.

After they reached there Kajal saw Mr. Raj Saxena for the first time........

She just formally said him a hi...

"Hi.... Kajal...Happy birthday.....I've heard a lot about you from your sister.... So hows Darjeeling??..... Raj asked politely

" Good".. Kajal said with a bored expression.

"Your di said you'll do your graduation from here...... That's really great" Raj said to increase the conversation.

"Hmmm".. Kajal only hummed by looks down. She's not at all interested to talk with him.

" Another official robot.... Trying to become frank.... I'm sure my sister is also gonna wait for nights for him to come home"...... Kajal thought.

"Maybe she's very tired so don't wanna talk..... Raj thought and brushed her reaction.

After the engagement ceremony a big Superman cake arrived in the Hall.

Kajal gasped on seeing the cake.

She's a huge fan of Superman and have a big crush on Henry Cavill(the actor who played Superman)

" Oh.... My God!.... Di it's a lovely cake. "... Kajal exclaimed like a kid and Panchhi forward her the knife... Just then only her father Mr. Srivastava arrived.

Kajal saw him and said sarcastically, " Oh... Wow.... The sun must risen from the West today........ CEO Sahab is present on my birthday "

Kajal... Mrs. Meera moved towards her but Mr. Srivastava hold her back.

Kajal smacked her head and said, "oops.... I'm such a fool... How can I forget it's my sisters engagement also to your proposes alliance... Haa.... That means CEO Sahab is here for his Good will not for me"...

Raj looked at her with a frown and thought, " What is wrong with her... Why she's talking to her father like this"

Panchhi went to her and whispered strictly, "Chhoti... That's enough now... Come on cut the cake"

Kajal cut the cake and feed everyone even her father also... Due to the continuous glares of her mother.

Just then Kajal got a call.... It was her friend Karan. He is their neighbour when they use to stay in Delhi.

Karan was two years elder to her.... But they both are best friends.

"Hey munchkin.... Happy birthday"..

Karan said

" Don't talk to me.... Now you've got time for me".... Kajal said with a pout.

"Sorry Munchkin I was busy in my entrance exam... But listen to me care fully..... I've arranged your admition in my sister's college.... You'll both study together.... Happy".... Karan said.

" What..... Really... Yeahhhh... I love you Karan.... You're the best"... Kajal said happily.

"Luv you too.... Munchkin... Now bye and happy birthday once again".... Karan said and disconnected the phone.

Just when Kajal kept the phone Panchhi asked her, " Karan???

Kajal nodded smilingly.

Raj again got confused on her acts and thought, "she's insulting her father who came to her birthday on time and now thanking someone on phone who wished her atlast... Strange??
