Chapter 1 - Not A Normal Girl

"Piya piya o piya piya, Piya piya o piya

Piya piya o piya piya, Piya piya o piya." A girl started singing her favourite song as usual.

She started dancing in the loud song, forgetting the world. It was her regular activity to dance after waking up from her beauty sleep!

"Subah shaam kare mera jiya, Jiya jiya jiya jiya, Piya piya o piya piya, Piya piya o piya, Piya piya o piya piya, Piya piya o piya." She kept singing, her ugly voice reached downstairs.

Her mom who was arranging the table for breakfast had Enough of her bad singing. No one sings that awful but she does. She knows how to ruin a good song.

"Piya, get your ass in the bathroom and stop singing for god's sake. Hurry up, it’s your first day in your dream college but looks like you want to be late!" Her mom shouted so that she can hear through the loud music.

"Yes, Mumma!" Piya shouted back, biting her tongue.

She turned off the speaker and quickly rushed to the bathroom.

~~~~~

"Here, comes your Princess!" Smitha said looking at Piya who descended the stairs tying her long hairs into a ponytail.

"Good morning, papa!" She said kissing her father's cheeks and touched her mom's feet to take blessing.

You guys saw na what I did there? Oh yeah, my papa is modern but my mom is old fashioned, She thought looking at her small but happy family.

"Good morning, Mumma!" She greeted her mom too and started drinking her chocolate milk.

"Good morning, beta!" Darshan said smiling at her Princess.

"Listen, girl, you are eighteen now. So stop acting childish everywhere. And I am telling you this because I have found a good alliance for you!" Her mom said dropping a bomb and ruined her good day.

She choked on the milk hearing her.

"You what?" She literally screamed.

"You want me to get married at eighteen. What the freak!" She said, feeling unbelievable about her mom.

"I am not telling you to get married now. I just got a good alliance so meet the guy and I will fix the marriage then you will get married after finishing your studies." Her mom said in a calm chilling tone.

By her tone, Piya understood that she can't deny it.

Mein bhi itni asani se shaadi fix karne nahi dungi. Mujhe milne toh doh us ladke se, aisa path padayungi ki mera naam suntehi kaanp uthega, Piya thought evilly. ( I will also not let this marriage get fixed so easily. Let me meet that boy, I will teach him such a lesson that he will shiver by hearing my name )

~~~~~

"The first impression is the last impression. You are late on your first day of College. Weren’t you excited?" Neha asked narrowing her eyes at Piya who just reached College by taxi.

"I am sorry. Arey woh atey wakt gali mein jo ramesh hain na woh mujhe ankh mar raha tha! So ek pathar uthaya aur ankh mein marke ayi! Abh toh woh apni biwi ko bhi ankh nahi mar payega!" Piya said laughing hysterically. ( When I was coming by the alley, Ramesh was winking at me. So I picked up a stone and aimed it at his eye! Now he can't even wink at his wife! )

"Oh, God!" Neha exclaimed in shock hearing her.

"BTW, do you know, mom is trying to fix my marriage? Today I have to go to meet that man in a cafe! I want to do love marriage, yaar! But mom doesn’t understand!" Piya whined in annoyance.

"Uh oh! But I know you! You will do something that the guy will think thousand times before fixing the marriage!" Neha said shaking her head as she knows what her best friend is!

"Tell me, what is going on in your mind?" Neha asked raising her eyebrows and Piya smirked lost in her thoughts!

~~~~~

"Look at him na yaar, he is so cute!" Piya said shaking Neha's shoulder for the tenth time.

"My ears are working properly! I heard it when you said it the first time." Neha said rolling her eyes.

Piya was drooling over a nerdy glasses boy in the class who looked too cute to her.

"I think he is my soulmate!" Piya said looking at him with twinkling eyes.

"Don’t jump to a conclusion! You are just having a crush on him!" Neha said in a bored tone.

"Nah, I want him. Dirty thoughts are appearing on my mind!" Piya said giggling, eyeing that boy who was deeply engrossed in books.

Neha facepalmed herself listening to her.

"I am going to him to say hi!" Piya said and got up from her seat, determining that she will make him her boyfriend which she was craving for so long.

"Don’t say anything stupid!" Piya heard Neha's voice as she got close to that boy's table.

Piya knocked on the table to get the boy's attention and he looked up at her. But instantly the boy's expression changed into a scared one.

"I.... I.... don’t talk to girls! I am a fucking big introverttttttttt." That boy screamed looking at Piya like he saw a ghost.

He ran away with his books like his ass was on fire! Piya was rooted in her place trying to think about what just happened!

She slowly walked towards Neha and sat down on her seat.

"What was that?" Piya asked with her horrified expression.

"Haha! Everyone knows that boy in the college! That guy is freaking scared of girls." Neha said laughing.

"Maybe he is gay!" Neha added.

"I don’t think so!" Piya said.

"BTW, you are coming with me to the cafe to meet that man!" Piya said and she doesn’t take no as an answer.

~~~~~

"You sure, you wanna go dress up like that?" Neha asked looking at Piya from top to bottom.

"Without any doubt! That man is also traditional like my mom! He will have a heart attack looking at me in this skimpy dress." Piya said giggling.

"Aunt will kill you if she knows about this!" Neha said.

"Don’t worry! I will handle her!" Piya said, letting her long hair open.

She was looking like a seductress in that dress. Neha mentally prayed to God, hoping that everything will happen as they have planned.
