Hema was silently watching our conversation and enjoying it.
Sneha: So, what kind of dressing you like.
Me: I prefer more to be traditional.. And this is the first time wearing western.
Sneha: Yes I can sense that because you wore payal(anklets) on a western dress and started laughing.So, you are like Hema then. She always prefers sarees to office ..so boring like an aunty..
Anyways we three can have more fun in western by going to shopping and chowpati(beach) together.
Me: what ..no ways..I will not come out like this.
Hema: No Megha relax...She is just pulling your leg..
Sneha: No I am damn serious. We three of us should enjoy our weekends like this together.
Hema: Ok that's fine...Let him feel comfortable first with us.
Sneha: Who is that he over here..We are all ladies only...
Hema: Sorry baba..my mistake...let Megha feel comfortable..
Finally after lot of chit chat we had a very late dinner at 11:30 pm and I am totally tired of the discussion with Sneha..I said good night and went to my apartment and slept without changing into my t-shirt and shorts.

Next day morning I woke up and seeing myself in the mirror like a beautiful lady I felt very happy and started blushing. I checked time and it is 11 am. So, it's already late and I removed makeup and taken a bath and wore my shorts and t-shirt.
Somebody knocking my door then I realised calling bell is not ringing due to powercut. I opened the door and it is Sneha..
Sneha: she entered into my apartment by pushing me aside..where is Meghana..what have you done to her...where is she.. Tell me the truth..
Me: No I haven't done anything to her..she is my sister right..she went to beauty partlor...by saying we both laughed.
Sneha: Yesterday you promised that you will cook lunch for us.Come to our flat and cook something for lunch. We are starving
Me: I prepared some typical south indian meal with appalam(papad).
Both Sneha and Hema enjoyed food like anything. Sneha said if not everyday Boss you should cook food atleast for us on weekends..and we all laughed.

Next day I started little early to catch the bus to my office. I was busy with my documents and went to join the induction program in the office. To my surprise it was Hema over there who took the induction session. In the two days of discussion out of surprise neither of us asked about our workplace to each other.
In the evening post dinner Sneha and Hema came to my condo and Hema said she was surprised seeing me in the office this morning and I said, "Yes, I felt the same".
Hema: We both can go to office on our Scooty from tomorrow till Sneha's college reopens.
Me:Ok ,but on one condition.
Hema: What is it?
Me: I will pay for the petrol.
Hema: Hmm.. Ok...it's not required. But, your wish.
Sneha went to her home town for semester holidays .Days passed by and it's been a month and our friendship became very strong. Hema and myself were going to office on her scooty daily .

We both used to cook alternatively either at my place or at Hema's apartment. Usually she used to cook lunch for both of us and I used to prepare dinner. Due to work and all I used to go to office on weekends also and didn't got time for dressing up. I was little frustrated with my work but I never shown my anger on my friend Hema. Hema is observing this trend for a while and asked me to take a break on a day. I said I will try to be at home this weekend but can't take leave during weekdays as I have to complete lot of work.

Finally that weekend has come and I woke up very late in the morning.
Hema: Krish, I want to meet your sister today..It's been a month I haven't seen her.
Me: What..what sister?
Hema: Meghana...With this work I observed that you are looking so frustrated. Today take a break and invite your sister.
Me: Yes Hema...that works like a panacea to all my issues.
Hema: If you are ok.. I can book an appointment with one of my Urban clap beautician friend...I know her very well and she won't say anything to anybody.
Me: Ok then..let's do it.
Finally beautician reached Hema's place and started waxing my body and asked Hema whether to do eyebrows. Hema said don't make it too thin. Just give an arch shape. She did my eyebrows well. Then she did facial waxing and that has given me a more smooth look. We have paid that beautician and she left by saying thanks.
Me: I asked Hema, "what do you want me to wear"
Hema: Your favorite "half saree"
Me: I will wear it..if you wear it as well.
Hema: But I don't have one.
Me: I will give mine and hope it will fit you well.
Hema: Ok give me the one in which I saw you for the first time. You bring your stuff and get ready in Sneha's room.
Me: I went into my apartment and brought the stuff and handed over my favorite half saree to Hema. Hema took it and went into her room. I started getting ready in Sneha's room by closing the door. We both forgot to lock the main door.
We both got ready and entered into the hall then suddenly main door opened..Sneha is there standing at the door with her luggage..
Sneha: Hey Girls...I am back..
Hema went and hugged her and I said welcome Sneha..
Sneha: Wow...you look so beautiful..something change happened to you...
Hema: Today beautician did the magic..
Sneha: You should have try this much before and you are looking so damn cute..by saying that she kissed on my cheek.
Me: I noticed that Hema was little uncomfortable and she went into the kitchen to bring some water for Sneha.

Sneha: She unpacked her luggage and distributed us some sweets from home and with full of energy she started explaining about her vacation, journey and so on..
Then after some time Sneha said why you both wore same type of dress...what is the matter?
We said nothing ..just tried the same type co-incidentally.
Sneha said, caught you both...
Me & Hema: What?
Sneha: Hema you don't have a half saree in the first place and the one you are wearing belongs to Megha..so why is it so. Explain?
Me: I said the whole story of work in office, frustration and all and took a break. So, we decided to dress up that's it nothing else.
Sneha: She changed the topic and started saying about a guy whom she met in the journey while coming to Mumbai.
After some time Sneha said she badly wants to take shower and while going inside the bathroom she asked me lend one of my half-sarees to her and she wants to try that.
Hema: I know Sneha is little tomboyish and never likes to try traditional wear. But to my surprise she wants to try one today.
I placed a beautiful halfsaree on her bed and closed the door. Sneha finished her bath and within no time she was ready and came out of the room and she is perfectly dolled up.
We took so many selfies and Hema said why don't we go to the community temple in the evening.
Sneha: That's a good idea.
Me: No I am not going to come.
Sneha: No don't worry we are there for your support. Let's go.
So, in the evening we three of us went to Lord Venkateswara Temple and Hema while going to the temple bought jasmine for swami. As a prasadam we three of us got the jasmine and these flowers were decorated by each of us. The smell of the jasmine made the evening very pleasant.
