10. The Mall Escapade

On Saturday evening I spent two hours rummaging in my closet looking for an outfit to wear to Reyansh's party. But I couldn't find anything! I decided to dash over to the mall and buy one. Just when I was leaving home, my mom asked me to take Krish with me as he wanted to go to that stupid dashing car area in the mall. In addition she wanted me to watch over him as well! Just great!

I don't know why on earth my mom wants me to watch over Krish. I mean, he's not a three year old toddler who plays in the ball pool and accidently swallows those balls, is he? He's a ten year old and is perfectly capable of looking after himself. But, my mom insisted that I should not let Krish out of my sight.

So I went to the mall with my brother tagging along. After a long outfit hunt, I finally brought a floral white dress and stilettos to match. And then I was forced to sit on a bench in front of the dashing car area and watch as Krish ran inside and got into a car

He gave me a 'ready to go' thumbs up sign like he was a hero in those action movies or something. He went round and round in his car whooping excitedly. I was terribly bored of sitting there like his nanny. Did I just say nanny?! I am not a nanny. I am a Fine Arts Secretary goddammit!

Krish deliberately dashed at the other kids in the area and yelled, "Sorry but it's a dashing car". I turned around and smacked my head. GOD! My brother went round and round the area, a hundred times like a maniac. I was starting to get a migraine headache, just looking at him.

Finally I got up and was about to go and fetch him when I ran into my dad's assistant Asha.

She beamed at me and said, "Riya, let me introduce you and Krish to my niece Shreya. She goes to your school too", and that's when I noticed a little girl about the same age as Krish was covering behind Asha. She looked very cute.

"Shreya this is Riya dheedhi", the girl smiled at me shyly, "And that is Krish" she pointed as Krish finally walked out of the dashing car area. Shreya's eyes widened, "I know him. He's in my class!" she squealed.

Krish smiled at her widely "Yes, were friends" he said.

"Wow! That's great!" Asha said, "Why don't you two go and play? Riya can you watch over Shreya for a few minutes? I have to get some medicines from the first floor".

"Sure" I said and before I had turned around, Krish and Shreya had gone back into the dashing car area. Not again!

They went round and round and kept hitting each other and squealed and waved every time they came closer, like they were long lost lovers or something. I was irresistibly reminded of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol's car scene in Dilwale.

Soon Asha came back and she and Shreya said goodbye to us. Once they left, I gave Krish an evil grin, "Krish and Shreya sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

Krish scowled, "Stop it".

"I know you have a crush on her. Just accept it."

"Well, you half fall in love with half the guys you meet. At least I am a one woman man", Krish snapped. What the heck?! Krish was supposed to be my little brother who played with cars. Where did he learn to speak like that?!

We finally came home, famished but excited. I tried on my outfit and made Krish take a picture of me from every angle I could imagine. Hah! This was my revenge for giving me a migraine! I then sent the pictures to my BFF'S and they immediately replied with gushing comments. I begged them to send pictures of their outfits but they refused and said it was going to be a surprise.

The next day afternoon, Mishti and Zoya came into my flat looking like supermodels. My mom had agreed to drop us at the party. Zoya was gorgeous in a mustard yellow gown and Mishti looked stunning in a purple satin dress.

"Come on let's go" Mishti said excitedly. It was her boyfriend's party after all.

"Yeah. Let's not be tardy for the party of the year!" Zoya squealed and we all hurried out.
