"Is this what love at first sight feels like?" said Asia dreamily as she hugged her pillow tightly.
"Dude. You are so done. What sort of a person falls in love with somebody by just looking at them? Very superficial of you." Teased Fajar.
"Did I tell you that the first time I saw him I felt like violins were playing in the background and my hair is flowing in the air? Truly a moment out of a Bollywood movie."
"You are getting Out of our hands girl! Calm down."
"I'm telling you he looks so good and not only good. He was also confident in his skin and he sat with so much poise and his voice sounded like warm honey. Warm honey with confidence? How do I explain it? he he sounded sweet yet powerful. And the way he was talking to his parents. The exchange between them made feel that they were pretty close and usually people who are close to their parents have a nice childhood are usually pretty good as a person.I think it looks better than draco malfoy!"
"Wow that's a big claim! But the real question is is he does he look better than Lucius malfoy?"
Asia laughed, "Yes I'm telling you he is absolutely stunning!"
"Nobody falls I love with somebody just because they look good. That's merely attraction girl!"
"Fatal attraction," said Asia dreamily.
There was a knock on the bedroom door. It was Mrs. Chohan.
"Come in." Said Asia
"How are you auntie?" asked Fajar
"I'm good! How are you? How is your mother's backache now? If she's not feeling better than I'll recommend you my physical therapist. She's helped me with my painful knees. Bless her."
"Yeah, auntie. She's been really upset about her backache. I will definitely tell her to call you up and plan something."
Mama looked at Asia who was looking at back at her sheepishly, still holding the pillow in her arms. Mama knew what was going on. She was very happy for Asia. Just like every other mother in this world she was worried about her children's future. She wanted the best for them. She wanted them to have the best spouse ever. Seeing her happy made her content from within. The family that had come to see Asia loved her. Mr. Cohan had looked into the family's background and the boy's too. They were a pretty decent family. They owned more than just a couple of steel mills and were filthy rich. But they were still humble and kind and the money hadn't quite got into their head which was very rare to find.
"Auntie by the way when is Asia getting married now?"
"We will see!" Said Mrs Chohan beaming at Asia's blushing face.
"I think Asia wants to get married as soon as possible. She's already planning her children's names."
"Shut up! I never said anything like that. Why are you lying?" screeched Asia as she hit Fajar with the pillow repeatedly and ferociously.
"We are all pretty excited because the family, and also the guy himself, they are such nice, kind people. I've heard such good things about them. I have heard good things about the company that they own and how they treat their employees so well."
"I'm very excited." Fajar opened her eyes wide and started clappingher hands like a 2 year old.
"Aren't we all?"
"So when is going to be the engagement, auntie?"
"Not as yet. We will be visiting their home for a few times. They will be visiting us. Then we will set up a little meet for Asia and Fahad see if they find each other compatible. Stuff like that. So don't get too ahead of yourself. It is not final yet. I'll be sending food to your room since I know you guys won't be getting of this room till the crack of dawn." Smiled Mrs Chohan.
"Oh my God you guys are going to meet!! What will you wear?"
"I don't know," Asia looked at the ceiling probably creating romantic scenario in her head.
"I am a bit nervous. What if he doesn't like my personality? What if he is a misogynist bear?"
"Stop. Just stop. Good vibes only," Fajar jumped "what are we? We didn't stalk him. Let's stalk him."
"I stalked him. It's pretty obvious. That's the first thing one does."
"Wow. Why didn't you tell me?"
"I made a fake account so I could stalk him. So even if I accidental like anything there won't be any problem. Genius right?"
"You made a fake account? Fake Facebook account?"
"Yeah I made a fake Facebook account also Instagram."
"Girl, you crazy. But I like this kind of crazy. Show me his profile."
"There you go," Asia opened his Instagram profile which was private.
"It's private. What's the point?"
"Yeah but look at his profile picture."
"Seriously? The profile picture on Instagram is so small!"
"I'll screenshot and zoom it for you."
"I can barely see his face it's all blurred up!"
"Let me show you his Facebook profile. Let me just logout of my own. I almost forgot the password for my fake ID so I changed it to 2123456. I won't forget now. That's going to be the password for all of my fake Ids." Said Asia as she logged in to the fake account.
"Stop blabbering and show me the picture."
"There you go."
"Man! He's insanely good looking. He looks like an angel. Hes giving that sweet boy energy. The smile is to die for. And look at that jawline. He seems a pretty private guy tho." As she looked through his profile to find only the profile picture."
"Mysterious you mean?"
"Yeah that's one way to say it!"
"I stalked his dad, his mom, his friend's friend, his friend's fiancé, his friend's brothers. I've stalked everybody and I've found a few pictures of him which I've saved in my Gallery. I'll show you them."
"And I am hearing about this just now?" Fajar stared at her angrily.
