Pihu was working on her laptop, preparing a presentation she needed to submit within a week.

Ritu walked in slowly, fidgeting with her fingers, clearly nervous because she had never lied to her family before.

Noticing her hesitation, Pihu put down her glasses and smiled.

"Do you want to say something, Ritu?" she asked.

Ritu, still hesitant, explained, "Yes, Bhabhi, it's Anisha's cousin brother's birthday today, and she invited me to the party. Can I go?"

Pihu, noticing Ritu's nervousness, reassured her, "Of course, go ahead! But why are you so nervous? By the way, what time does the party end? I'll send the car to pick you up."

Ritu quickly replied, "No need for the car, Bhabhi. Anisha will drop me off. The party will start around 7:30 PM, and I'll be home by 9."

Concerned, Pihu asked,"That late, Ritu? And you'll come back alone? You know your brother will be very angry if he hears this, right? 9 PM is too late... I think I'll ask my bhaiya to pick you up."

Ritu tried to calm her, "Don't worry, Bhabhi, Anisha will be with me, and we'll come in her car. There's no need for Shreyansh Bhai to come, and I'll keep updating you."

Still worried, Pihu responded,

"Even so, Ritu, you two aren't old enough to be out that late. I can't take the risk dear."

Ritu, using her best pout and puppy eyes, pleaded,

"Please, Bhabhi, it's just for one night. Bhaiyaa never lets me go anywhere. Please don't say no."

Pihu, unable to resist her puppy eyes, gave in.

"Okay, but you have to be home by 9 PM sharp, alright?"

Ritu, excited, hugged Pihu tightly, exclaiming, "Thank you, Bhabhi! Love you so much!"

Pihu smiled at her excitement, gently caressing her back.

Ritu stood in front of the mirror, dressed in a black mini skirt that barely reached above her knees, paired with a sleeveless crop top and a jacket.

Her hair cascaded freely over her shoulders, and she wore just a touch of makeup.

But despite the boldness of her outfit, her discomfort was evident. She kept tugging at the skirt, trying to pull it lower, as if wishing it would cover more.

Her unease was obvious to anyone who might have seen her in that moment.

She murmurs looking at the mirror, 'Agar bhaiya mujhe aise kapre mein dekh liya na ..meri toh poha bana denge woh..

As she prepared to leave for the party, Pihu noticed her outfit and couldn't hide her surprise. It was the first time she had ever seen Ritu wear something so daring.

Seeing her surprise gaze she asked her,' how am I looking bhabhi??'

Pihu couldn't help but ask her, 'Who told you to wear this dress, Ritu?'

Ritu licked her lips in nervousness.

'What happened bhabhi?? Am I not looking good in this dress?'

'It's not that. I've just never seen you in a dress like this, that's why. Are you comfortable in it?' Pihu shook her head but her gaze was still lingering of her outfit.

'Yes, bhabhi, I'm totally comfortable. I just felt like wearing it today, that's all. Hehehe..' she chuckles..

Pihu nodded her head reluctantly.

'Okay, bhabhi, I'm going now' she says wearing her heels.

'Where are you going?? Let Anisha come first', Pihu says.

Ritu becomes tongue-tied.

Ritu quickly said,
'Oh no, bhabhi, she said she'll wait for me at the crossing. She won't come to the house. She's waiting for me there because we'll be late otherwise.

'Oh, she's not coming? Alright then, but be careful. And call me when you reach, okay? I'll be waiting'. She says to her .

'Yes ofcourse bhabhi' Ritu say while giving a thumbs up.

Ritu stood anxiously at the ABC crossing, glancing at her watch every few minutes, her heart racing with a mix of excitement and apprehension. It was the first time she had lied to her family, all for a night out at a club she had never imagined in her dream.

After 5 minutes, Ishaan arrives on his bike. He’s wearing ripped jeans and a T-shirt, looking very handsome. He gives a wink at her before stopping his bike.

'He Ritu!!' he calls out..

'I have been waiting for you for such a long time ...and i have return back home too' she asked in nervous and tensed tone...

'God, Ritu... we haven't even reached there yet and you're already thinking about going home. By the way, you look very hot in this dress' he compliment her..

She blushes looking down,'thanks'.

'No one could recognise you in the part with your dressing...ekdum chikni chameli lag rahi hain'.. he says staring at her from up to down.

Ritu just smiles because she doesn't like these kinds of comments but doesn’t say anything.

Within 30 minutes, they reach the nightclub.

It's Ritu's first time ever entering a nightclub, and that too by lying to her family.

Somewhere in her heart, she's feeling guilty and afraid, though she doesn’t know why...Ritu gets off the bike as Ishaan parks it.

'Who are invited in these part ??' Ritu asked.

'Are you know everyone... I introduced you to them in college, remember? It’s the same group...' he says .

[Brief introduction of these characters:

Today is Divya's birthday, and this party is in her honor.Veer is Divya's boyfriend.

Rakesh and Tina are a couple, but Rakesh still flirts with every girl.

And last is Abhi, who loves one-night stands. He drools over every girl, and smoking and drinking are common for him.]

They both enters inside the club...

A loud song was playing in the background, people dancing wildly, while others were drinking in the bar area. A disco ball light twirled above, casting colorful lights around.

Ritu had only seen these kinds of things in movies. Never in her dreams did she imagine that one day she would be here. Her heart was racing, and her hands were sweating profusely.

Suddenly, Ishaan grabbed her waist, making Ritu jump.

He pulls her slightly close whispering, 'hey what happened??'

She shook her head giving a smile,  'Nothing'.

She looked at the hand holding her waist. She didn't know why she didn’t like his touch though it just a friendly touch.

Suddenly, someone called out, "Heyyy Ishuuu!!!"

Both of them looked towards the voice.

Ishaan removed his hand from her waist.

'Hey sweetheart's he calls her

He hugged Divya and kissed his cheek in return.

Ritu's eyes widened at the sight.

When she noticed her,she greeted Ritu.

"Thanks, Ritu, for coming to this party... I’m so happy you made it!" She grins excitedly to which Ritu smiles.

Ishaan smirks,' Waise where is your jaaneman??'

At the same time, Veer, Abhi, Rakesh, and Tina joined them.

Heyyyyyyy !!! They shout..

Ishaan gasps,' Woahhhh'...

'Why are you so late man?' Rakesh hugging him.

"Oh, there was traffic, that’s why... And look who I brought along... Ritu!"Ishaan says ..

Everyone greeted her, but Abhi hugged her by the waist, making Ritu freeze in place.

"Hey darling... I’ve heard a lot about you from Ishu..." Abhi says.

"You’re so beautiful, Ritu, and your dress is giving off major hot vibes 🔥🔥." Tina says hugging her.

"And sexy too..."Abhi says after her.

After some chit-chat, Divya cut the cake, and everyone sang the birthday song. All the while, Ritu stood beside Ishaan.

'Comeon first feed this cake to your lovely boyfriend ' Rakesh said while laughing.

'Ofcourse I'll feed my Veer first. You don't have to ask' She says.

Divya fed a piece of cake to Veer, and in return, he kissed her on the lips while holding her waist.

"Eww, a lip kiss in front of everyone?" Ritu murmurs shockingly.

Ishaan heard her.

"God, Ritu, they’re a couple. Lip kisses are just a common thing. Why are you reacting like this?" Ishan ask her casually.

"Ishaan, these kinds of kisses are intimate... doing this in public... I mean..."Ritu tries to explain.

"So? What’s the problem? It’s just a kiss..you're talking like 80's people' Ishaan rolled his eyes.

Suddenly, Tina came over and started opening a wine bottle.

"This... this is alcohol... what are you going to do with it?" Ritu ask shockingly.

'kya mast joke mari tu yaar' Rakesh laughs loudly..

Ishaan gives a tight smile facing her,

'What do we do with alcohol, Ritu? Of course, we’re going to drink it'

"Don’t you guys know that drinking this stuff isn’t good for your health?"Ritu ask ..

"Oh Ritu, it’s for celebration. It’s not like we drink every day... It’s fine during a celebration" Divya shrugged her shoulders.

"Sweetheart, you’re an adult now. Why are you talking like a kid, huh?"Abhi ask in unbelievable tone.

"If you guys want to drink, go ahead, but I won’t. I don’t like these things..." Ritu says shaking her head.

"Okay, okay, relax... don’t drink. We’ll get you a Coke instead, drink that." Ishaan says calming her.

Ritu nodded. She didn’t like this environment or the surroundings.

She just wanted to go home, nothing else. But what she didn’t know was that they were all the same. They were planning to prank her by making her drink alcohol.

Ishaan, Abhi, Rakesh, and Tina inwardly smirked at each other. No one knew what they were planning. Only time would tell what they were up to...
