Sitara turned towards her friends with eyes full of amusement. "Just wondering something!"
"We're eagerly waiting, tell us." Kush turned into the journalist resulting the others to laugh out loudly. They just ignored the media and public and stayed busy with each other.
"Rose, common now, say it." Charlie urged the girl to speak, she clasped her hands and made a pleading expression.
Rose just scanned her surroundings from the corner of her eyes before talking, "Just around one & a half week ago I left these country, from these airport, and the situation was somehow similar with the current situation.
The airport was filled with these people, these reporters were going crazy to click pictures.
But the center of attention was not the common, normal looking, basically ugly heiress of Singhania family, Sitara Singhania. But her sister, and her boyfriends.
And today they're again here to click pictures with much more enthusiasm and excitement, but today's centre of attention is Sitara. Not the ugly one, but the bold & beautiful, talented, the infamous doctor, Dr. Sitara Jindal. Isn't it amusing?" A series of sigh escaped from their lips as they listened her amusement filled voice.
"Are you regretting for your decision?" Kush asked in a comical manner, but there was a hint of seriousness in his voice.
Rose just mused, she returned the question raising her brows, "Am I?!"
"Something delicious is cooking in your mind, we can see that!!" Charlie said in a matter of fact tone.
"Well, we have enough time to reserch. For now we're feeling very tired, let's go home now." Raghav stopped the discussion as they reached towards the car.
"Yeah, let's go."
.....
Inside some room of the Singhania Mansion three ladies were sitting together with stressed expression on their faces.
Yes, they were none other than the three ladies in command of the three prime elite families of the country. Mrs. Naina Singhania, Mrs. Srija Roy & Mrs. Nita Maheshwari.
They were gathered to discuss about how to break the relationship between Sitara & Kartick, his mother was continuously badmouthing & cursing the girl.
And the reason of this sudden hatred was her only son Kartick's sudden change of heart towards Sitara, today he fought with his mother for the girl. For sometimes ago he started to behave differently, turned a little protective over Sitara.
And as usual, Mrs. Roy is not happy with this change of his son, "Listen Naina, do anything you want to, but crush all these budding feelings of my son. I'm not gonna accept that girl as my daughter-in-law, I'm telling you."
Mrs. Roy fisted her palm to control her anger, two of the woman just looked at her before sighing, Mrs. Maheshwari spoke out while clasping her hands in form of prayer. "It's god's grace that I successfully pulled my son out of her grasp, I'm just waiting for the engagement ceremony to finish. Then only I'll be able to sigh in relief."
Mrs. Roy serectly clenched her teeth, she was frustrated. "I don't understand one thing, what is so special about her. First Suhas and now Kartick, that girl doesn't have anything, not beauty, not charm, nor talent, then why these boys are so mesmerized with her. How's she exactly seducing them?"
Naina was sitting quietly and listening to them without talking much, she just stared at her best friend Srija, the middle aged lady was looking disheartened by her son's behavior.
Mrs. Roy continued her blabbering, "I never thought that my Kartick will take her side and fight with me one day. I'm telling you, that girl must've done some black magic on my son for him to behave like this. I cannot wait anymore, do anything but bring him back."
Naina held out the glass of juice to her before finally talking, "Cool down Shrija, don't worry, after tomorrow none of her magic will work onto anyone. After tomorrow she'll even fear to step out of her room."
The two snapped their heads up to look at her, "What are you gonna do with her?"
Naina just smiled, the smile which was very familiar to them. A malicious and vicious smile, "Something, which she had never thought about in her ugliest dream. The name she feels so proud of, will turn into the most disgusting name in the world.
I'll snatch the only and the most important thing from her, her self respect, her reputation. I'm going to tarnish her reputation and turn it into fine dust."
The two just stared at her suspiciously, in between them she's the most dangerous one, her brain is not just brain but the house of malice. Naina assured her friend with a smile. "Not only your son but nobody will look at her after tomorrow, just wait and see."
"I don't understand why are you still enduring her." Mrs. Maheshwari grumbled feeling annoyed and irritated with the situation.
Only to bring his son back she had to conspire against him, she even fed him drug.
A strong murderous glint flashed in her eyes as she suddenly remembered the incident years ago.
Her jaw hardened, she clenched her teeth renumbering the decision of her father-in-law of transferring all the property to that girl. She inhaled sharply, to calm herself down. "Do you think I love it? If I would've any way, then I would've finished her long ago.
But not to worry, the days of my endurance will end very soon. Once let her turn twenty-one, and let me take her sign on the property papers...." They cheered with some meaningful glances and laughs.
.....
Shanaya was sitting on her bed with her outfit and jewelries. But she had no interest in those things, she was busy calling someone on her phone.
It's been an hour or so she's trying to talk with her younger sister, but her phone was not reachable as usual. She threw her phone feeling frustrated after trying so many times.
Naina was passing by while she noticed the lights of her daughter's room are still turned on. She peeked inside to see the girl sitting with a black face.
A frown appeared on her forehead, "Munmun, what happened sweetie?" She asked after sitting beside the girl.
Shanaya turned towards her mother and hugged her, "Mom, I'm missing her. Tomorrow is a big day in my life, and I want her to be with me."
Naina breathed deeply to control her emotions, and stroked her daughter's hair. "Don't feel sad, you know how much she loves you, she'll surely attend tomorrow's function. Maybe she's still in flight, after all it's a long distance."
Huuh, she have to return. After all I've prepared a very big surprise for her. Naina smirked evilly which her daughter failed to notice, she closed her eyes slowly as sleep took over her.
Naina stayed for some more time before pulling the comforter over the girl and leaving the room.
