Ting...............Ting..............Ting...............

the alarm of the phone rang when it struck it was 6 in the evening.

"Will you get up or not?" Came a middle aged women's voice.

"Ha na mummy baas 5 minutes aur" (Yes mom give me 5 minutes more please) replied a girl who seemed around the age of 22-23.

"Ha 5 minutes bol-bol ka 4:30 sa 6 baj gaya Paar tumhara uthna ka naam nahi hai. Shaadi mein jaana hai ki nahi tumko?" (your 5 minutes have been continuing from 4:30 and it's already 6 now. Do you want to go to the wedding or not ?) said the middle aged woman.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAA???? MUMMY YAAAR PHEHLE UTHANA THA NA" (WHATTTTTT? MOM YOU SHOULD HAVE WOKEN ME UP BEFORE) saying this the girl got out of the bed hurriedly and ran to the washroom.

Here, meet our Protagonist Sonakshi Sharma and the middle aged woman is her Mother Ragini Singhania

Sonakshi's Pov

"Bola tha mummy ko jaldi uthana. Lekin nahi unha toh uthana late hi hai" (Told Mom to wake me up early but no she always wakes me up late)

I mumbled to myself washing my face.

Today we are suppose to go to my cousin's wedding.

I wanted to be there for here but yea I am again late because my mom did not wake me up on time.

'Yea nice way to shift the guilt Sonkashi' mocked my consciousness.

"Are you done or not?" My mom questioned.

"Arey ha ha ruko nikal rahi hoon. Shanti sa bathroom tak mat jana do" (Ya ya coming. Don't let be in peace even when I am in the washroom)

I shouted back being irritated.

Note : I am always grumpy and irritated when I wake up from my sleep. So you cannot judge me for that. Aasa toh mein ek aachi insaan hoon. (Apart from that I am a good person)

After 5 minutes I came out of the washroom.

Then I quickly went to my room and started dressing up

I quickly wore a yellow coloured lehenga with had glass patterns printed on it and topped it with steel bangles , earings and black bindi.

(Lehenga)
(Earings)
(Bangles)

I then started doing my makeup.

I did a light base, applied some blush, Kajal, linear and some red lipstick.

"Kitna make up karti hai" (How much make up do you do?) Said my mom.

"Kyu aachi nahi lag rahi hoon kya?" ( why am I not looking good?)

"You're looking like a joker" she said again.

"Koi na mein khudko aachi lag rahi hoon" ( It's okay I feel like I am looking good)

I replied to her and then went to grab my earings.

"Ha ha Ma baap ki toh suno hi mat" ( yea yea don't listen to your parents)

She kept mumbling while I did the rest of my work.

To be honest it doesn't bother me anymore.

Whether it's my mom , dad, or step dad no one compliments me ever.

Toh basically mujha aadat hai (So basically I am habituated to it now)

Oh btw, my parents are divorced just so you know and my mom got married again.

As per for me sometimes I stay with my mom and sometimes with my dad so yea and this wedding is from my step dad's ( uncle - that's what call him ) side.

"Also don't call me Mom there" My mom shouted from the other room.

"Okay then Grandma" I shouted back while laughing.

"I'm serious also call up your sister and tell her to come to the wedding directly with uncle (step dad) only" she again said.

"Me too even I am serious and I'll call her up on our way don't worry" I said back.

"Are you coming with us?" Asked Kamini Ahuja.

"No I have work" Came a reply in a very cold tone.

"What do you mean by that I told you already that we were going to attend a wedding. Even after informing you from before hand you don't have time for your family" said kaimi Ahuja with an irritated and angry tone.

"I have a lot of work in the company and I will get going now" said the man and left the house.

"But Vanshaj sun toh..... koi baat nahi sunta hai yeh ladka" ( But Vanshaj listen to me.......This boy never listens to me) she mumbled being frustrated.

So guys, now finally meet our second and the most important Protagonist Vanshaj Ahuja and his Mother Kamini Ahuja.

Vanshaj's Pov

(Ladies and Gentlemen - him)

"Good morning sir" said everyone as soon as I entered the office.

"Morning Guys. Let's get back to work and we have a very important meeting today so yea be prepared" I said to everyone and started walking towards my cabin.

I entered my cabin and started working on my laptop.

This is how my life is. For me work is my life.

"Sir" called one of my employees.

"Yes come in" I replied back.

"Sir the investors have come and the meeting is about to begin" he said.

"Go I am coming" I said and stood up to go to meet the investors.

I walked down through the hallway and saw 4 people sitting on a sofa and snacks were being served to them.

"Hi Mr Mehta. Nice to meet you" I said while forwarding my hand.

"Nice to meet you too Mr Ahuja" said Mr. Mehta and went in for a handshake.

"Shall we start the meeting now?" I asked.

"Yes yes of course" said Mr Mehta.

After that, we all proceeded to go to

the meeting room.

"So Mr Mehta the product which we are launching is of hair care named 'Twist N Curls' Nowadays women with curly hair are facing a lot of issues and our product will help them smoothen their hair and will solve problems such as Hair fall, dandruff, scalp irritation and all other various problems.Our product will also.............."

Time skips

"We liked your idea a lot Mr Ahuja and we want to finalize it" said Mr Mehra.

"Thank you so much and I am glad that you liked our product" I said while giving him a small smile.

After that we all had some snacks and then Mr Mehta proceeded to go back.

"Congratulations guys we have successfully cracked another huge deal. Proud of yall" I said to them while appreciating the hardwork each of them put in.

"So Sir can we go home early today" asked one of my employees.

I smiled at them and while nodding my head said "yes but only for today"

They all smiled at me showing off their white and yellow teeth.

I would have not allowed if it was any other day but all of them are working very hard from a long time and they deserve this early leave.

"Sir won't you go?" Asked one of the employees bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Nahi huma kaam hai aap jaeya" (No I have work you go) I replied and continued my work.

'Waha jaake akele hi toh rehna hai Isse yaha hi hum akele reh le kaam sa kaam sukoon toh milega huma' (What's the point of even going there when I have to be alone at the end of the day. Better that I stay here ans stay alone at least it's peaceful here)

I thought to myself and continued my work.
