Hello peeps, Pari here.
Here I come with another update, dedicated to dear mist_and_myth
Have fun 💖

Cameras flashing, music playing, masses dancing, Dj blabbering, crowd cheering, spotlights wandering. That was the scenario at the biggest event of the year.

A shining black limousine stops at the red carpet. Two huge men in black suits open the doors. A little form clad in a pink gown appears behind the door. Her hair neatly done up, a tiara adoring her head. White gloves covering half of her arms and before she can jump down, two pairs of legs come to stand in front of her.

She looks up and beams at her father.

Arnav - Princess Aarushi, don't keep your little beautiful royal feet on the ground. I'm here to carry you.

He extends his arms to lift her up but she's pushed aside by another identical form behind her, fuming, visible clouds of smoke exiting her nose. Her teeth grit, her hands fisting. But she's not wearing the same clothes as princess Aarushi. She’s in simple black shorts and a white top.

Oh, the jealous evil twin sister of beautiful, graceful, ever so helpful princess Aarushi, loved by each and everyone of her dynasty.

Arshi - N me? No kai me? Sho badh.

But ah, luckily they had two people as parents. Apart from Daddy dearest, there was their Mumma too.

Khushi - Oh, of course shona. Mumma is here na, I'll carry my baby.

She jumps out of the limo and is readily carried by her mother while Daddy lifts up princess Aarushi in his arms. The family turns walks on the red carpet. Everyone cheering and shouting princess Aarushi. The bodyguards keeping the media away.

“Princess Aarushi, just one question please.”

“Princess Aarushi, just one interview please.”

And so it happened, the big hearted and generous princess Aarushi had mercy on the poor journalists.

Aarushi - Ok, one in-vu.

Arnav - But princess Aaru, the party is awaiting. All the other princesses are waiting for you.

Khushi - Yes, princess Odette is in her human form and waiting for you. If the party gets late she'll turn into a swan.

Aarushi - Mumma n Daddy...

She began very coolely, with the mannerful attitude of her highness.

Aarushi - Pathy sho much tam. They shtay sho long hea. We give in-vu and then go.

Arshi - They shtay, sho wat? We go in. Pathy waitig. No kea them.

Aarushi - No Alshi, a gud pinshesh o-waysh shee evi-one. N I m a gud pinshesh.

She shakes her head at the evil twin who twists her mouth, not caring about the common people.

Aarushi - U may shtat.

She motions to the girl with a mike in her hand.

Mitu - Hi, princess Aarushi. I'm Mital, and I'm a big fan of yours. I've brought many questions for you and your sister from your fans. So can I take your interview?

Aarushi - Yesh yesh. Come in.

They walk in with the guards escorting them safely inside the hall which is filled with Barbie princesses.

Everyone looks at her. They all bow and princess Aarushi too gives a small bow, still in the arms of her father.

Arshi - All theesh badh Babiesh, I do shum-thin badh and they all go n neva come.

She smirks, with evilness pouring out of her eyes. Princess Aarushi smiling and meeting her friends, oblivious to the plans of her evil twin.

Just her twin!?

No!

The evil mother daughter duo.

Khushi - Don't worry Arshi, we got what we wanted. All these princesses are in one room. Now, you and me, we'll get rid of them. The crown will be ours.

And they both laugh loudly, villainous aura spreads around them.

After greeting her princess friends, princess Aarushi comes back to the table with reporter Mitu awaiting her.

Aarushi - Whea Mumma and Alshi? Mah shishta n Mumma.

Arnav - There they are.

He smiles at his little precious baby pointing to the duo approaching the table. Her mother sits down with Arshi and Aarushi on the table and Mitu starts her questions.

Mitu - So first of all, your fans want to know, what does your highness want to be when you grow up?

Aarushi - I m pinshesh and I o-waysh be pinshesh. When I big, I live in biiiiig palash. Daddy give me.

She looks at him for confirmation. He nods with a smile.

Arnav - Yes. A princess lives in a palace, so I'll build a bigger palace for you.

The princess grins in excitement. But the evil sister is not happy with the plans. She wants the princess’ crown and palace both.

Mitu - So Arshi, what do you want to be when you grow up?

Arshi - A pinshesh.

The princess is shocked, just as her father. A princess? But there can be only one princess, and that is princess Aarushi.

Mitu - A princess? But princess Aarushi is our one true princess.

Arshi - Yesh yesh. I jush joke.

Khushi - Yes, Arshi is not serious. She knows Aarushi is the only true princess. She'll follow in her father's footsteps. Since Aarushi is a princess, someone will have to handle business.

The mother saves Arshi, their plans were about to blow up. Princess Aarushi smiles. She loves her mother and sister immensely.

Mitu - So, the public wants fo know. Saree or shorts? What is better? What do you both think?

Aarushi - Mumma wea Sha-li, she look shooooo butiful.

Arshi - I wea shots. I no look good?

The envious twin sister, it was hard for her to not drop her mask. But princess Aarushi, being the generous and kind princess she is, always tries to keep everyone happy.

Aarushi - Yesh yesh. Both good.

Arshi - Yesh. Mumma wea Sha-li, I wea shots. Both good.

The mother smirked. She had both wrapped around her fingers. They both loved her too much. But princess Aarushi was not aware of her treacherous mother's real intentions.

Mitu - What chocolate do you both like?

Aarushi - I luv all chocate and Jebi. Mumma too luv Jebi.

Poor princess Aarushi had no idea, the same mother she could not talk enough of had enough of her.

Arshi - Me too. All chocate. Tashty chocate.

Aarushi - Mah shishtah jush like me. We both shame shame.

Princess Aarushi smiles genuinely at her sister who had evil intentions for her. She moves her head, the music in the background turns soft. A harmonious sound of flute is to be heard.

Princess Aarushi sings in her sweet melodious voice.

I'm jush like you...
you jush like me...
We take lesh-ponshi
We kally thoo..

Applause echoes into the hall. The evil twin flares her nose. The mother hushes her.

After praising her talent, the journalist continues with her questions.

Mitu - So, some people outside say that Arshi is quite bossy. Is it true?

Aarushi - Wat bosshy?

Poor innocent princess Aarushi was not aware of the term. But she was intelligent and asked the reporter.

Mitu - This is someone who is always ordering around and always wants everything to happen as they want. So miss Arshi, are you bossy?

And in the next second the reporter Ms Mitu had two tiny hands around her neck. In the heat of her anger, miss Arshi attacks her.

Arshi - I no bosshy! U bosshy. Aalu bosshy. I no bosshy. No call me bosshy. Unda-shtan?

The reporter nods, fearing for her life. Princess Aarushi already asking her sister to have mercy on the poor reporter.

Khushi - Well, like father like daughter.

The mother, after a moment of enjoyment takes Arshi back in her lap.

Khushi - Calm down Arshu, relax.

She hushes her and whispers something in her ears.

Khushi - It's time. Everyone will be poisoned and lose their voices now.

The exchange glares and laugh. Princess Aarushi apologises to the reporter on her evil sister's behalf.

Aarushi - M sho shoy. No moa quesh-an. Peesh, eat. No go elsh. Ok?

Mitu - Thanks princess Aarushi, you are the best princess ever.

The reporter walks away to eat. Princess Aarushi looks around. Everyone is eating, dancing and smiling. Just the party she wished to have.

But, oh no.

Why has everyone started coughing? Why are they feeling sick suddenly?

Princess Aarushi, along with her father get up and go look around, ask around but none of the princess can speak anything.

Only two loud voices can be heard. Their laughter. Bad oozing out of them.

Khushi - Now our plan is successful.

Arshi - Yesh. I m pinshesh now.

Princess Aarushi looks around. Her father too coughing now. She feels something in her neck, she can't withstand the urge to cough.

Khushi - See, now everyone of your Barbie princesses will lose their voices, including you! Princess Aarushi!

The poor princess, betrayed by her own mother and sister.

Arshi - I o-wysh jelash of Babiesh. Now no moa.

The mother daughter duo walk over and remove her crown.

Arshi - Shee, now I pinshesh.

The mother keeps the crown on Arshi's head, who's not even wearing a gown. This is unacceptable. The dynasty won't accept it.

Princess Aarushi struggles with her voice.

Aarushi - Sho bad. I m pinshesh Aalu, Alshi badh.

Arnav enters the room and approaches his wife who twists her mouth at him.

Arnav - What?

Khushi - Heard what she's saying?

He looks over to his sleeping little angel, hugging her new pink gown and tiara.

Aarushi - I m pinshesh. Babie no badh. Alshi badh. Mumma badh.

Arnav - Well, in her defence Arshi was making fun of her Barbies and her new outfit.

He chuckles admiring her sleeping form. He got the Barbie princess costume for her as she wished for it. But Arshi being Arshi, had irritated her and said Barbie is not beautiful and she is no princess. This had not been liked by her.

Khushi - And she got a punishment. She had to help me bath and change Aaru's Barbies. She's with her Buaji now.

Arnav - And what about you? You were against me getting her the costume and tiara.

Khushi shakes her head at him and turns to stand eye to eye with him.

Khushi - Yes, because you're spoiling her. She wants every new Barbie, ever new Barbie’s game and costume. You get her everything. She wants to be a princess like Barbie, so you got her this tiara, a real tiara! This is too much Arnavji.

Arnav - Khushi, see it this way. She'll have her fun playing with it and for us, it's a good investment.

Khushi - Hawwww. So now you see business benefit even in the innocent games of my children? You're so bad.

She shakes her head in disbelief at him and walks out to the poolside, expecting him to come behind and convince her of why he has not done anything wrong.

Song featuring: A girl like you from Barbie and the pauper.

P.S. I hope it was clear that Khushi and Arshi aren't really villains in Aarushi's life but rather she's dreaming so for reasons given.

Dull ending. I know but I typed it fast in two hours since I got this idea abruptly. The plan was to originally interview them but then this came in my mind and I drafted it quickly.

Now it's midnight, so am sorry for the typos and the rest of the questions asked will be featuring in another update.
So everyone whose questions aren't here, don't be sad, your questions will be answered soon by twins 😁

Love you all,
Pari💖
