'So that's how you ended up with him, all arranged. Dull. Shame.' Jassi rolled up her eyes.
Mahima looked at her for few seconds and said, 'Just finish your coke and finish this stupid shopping fast. And mind you! I really like him, Sanjay is a good person.'
'Yeah, even the beggar over there looks like a good person.'
'Shut up'
'Okay! Okay! but then you shall not blame me in the future.' Jassi said in a cool tone, widening her eyes.
'Blame you for what?' Mahima was puzzled.
'For not warning you.' Jassi chuckled.
'Warning about what?' Mahima was surprised now.
'About this wrong guy.'
'Okay, got it, no thanks, will never blame you.' Mahima now passed the stack of shrugs under the 'New arrival' section. 'Do you want these or just the heavy ones for the occasion?'
'Obviously I want these too, how do you expect me to carry the heavy ones all day long?' Jassi sipped coke, 'by the way, this applies for your life too.'
'What?' Mahima asked without paying attention to Jassi, she was now separating the blue ones from the green ones. 'Ahaa, this will go with that damn halter top you liked.'
'I suppose yes, take this yellow piece too.' Jassi handed Mahima another one. 'I was saying, although the heavy dress looks good but isn't supposed to be comfortable if worn all the day.'
Mahima who had already moved two stacks ahead, turned around as gave a very stern look to Jassi, said threateningly 'Okay, I got where are you going with this. Listen, stop badgering me about this decision, we had been engaged for months now, and are getting married in a couple of days. Please stop giving your expert advises or I will hit your head with this hanger.'
'I am just trying to help you.' Jassi said in a short voice.
'If you want to help me, finish your drink fast, free your hand, and hold all these packets.' Mahima was loosing her temper now.
'You both don't fit along.'
'Says a girl who couldn't make more than one friend.'
'Yeah, well that is irrelevant.'
'Hold my purse, hmm, will this fit you?' Mahima pulled out a pair of jeans.
'Yes, but I want in blue.'
'Very well.'
'Mahima, you look like as if you are compromising with him, you don't look comfortable with him. The same with him, he never looks at ease when around you.' Jassi finally blurted out what she had been holding for long.
Mahima stopped picking from the lower shelves and stood up. She looked really uncomfortable. Paused, for several moments, then she told in calm voice, 'Look, I am sorry that I informed you so late that you have rush and fly over here, and in this hurry, you forgot to take you luggage and this had been great, great inconvenience to you. But, the thing is, we had been working on this for over a year now and there is no moving back. See, I will pay for your stuff as I told and you will help me as you told. Please drop this matter here, I have had enough.'
'Okay, even my Coke got finished.' Jassi looked sadly at her can.
'Throw it and hold these bags.' Mahima pointed to the dustbin. After handing her the bags, Mahima said, 'Let's go to the stall over there, they have got pretty wedding accessories collection. I wanna get some for myself.'
'I am tired of holding these, I will just sit there for sometime. I'll join you after I finish...' Jassi gestured towards the La Comida area.
Mahima giggled, pulled Jassi's cheeks. 'Go, have something, you didn't have the breakfast.'
After Jassi went over there, Mahima reached out to the accessory section, after spending five minutes, she could not decide which bangles to buy, moreover, when she reached for her purse, she realised, she forgot to take it back from Jassi. 'Good, I'll bring her here and she may even help me in selecting.'
After she returned to the La Comida only to find Jassi enjoying Chocolate Marble Pastry. Mahima slipped into the chair opposite to Jassi. Jassi with her mouthful said,'Great! it didn't take you long.'
'It will take, they have marvelous collection, besides, I forgot you and my money here.'
Jassi pushed her plate towards Mahima, 'Tasty, try it.'
Mahima gave a weak smile, 'I need to watch my weight.'
Jassi just forced a spoonful into Mahima's mouth, 'Nothing happens with a spoon.'
'Oh, I forgot, you remember that guy Dhruv.'
'Of course, I remember, met him yesterday, he is helping us in decoration arrangements.'
'How do you know him?'
'Did my intern with him, why what happened?' Mahima looked a bit worried.
'Nothing serious, he just called on your phone, asked if it were us here in the shop or he spotted wrong. when I confirmed, he said he would be coming here in ten minutes, needs to ask about flowers or something..I don't remember, sorry.' Jassi informed casually.
'Hmm, let's wait here, I'll order juice meanwhile.' Mahima declared.
'I am finished, don't you want to go and buy the accessories?' Jassi inquired.
'I do, but Dhruv is coming, let's catch a break meanwhile.' Mahima placed her order.
'Weird' Jassi muttered to herself.
