TRANSLATION OF THE CHAPTER NAME (- which is in French):
The Evening Begins!

(I don't know, I just thought a Grand evening deserved a Grand name. But, yeah, anyway you take it!)

- niha -

We got all ready for the party. Due to some reason, April planned for us to be the escorts in the most Arabic way as it would be easier to hide our faces! Literally wore a Golden Patialla and then a translucent golden face cover with our eyes over flowing with Kajal and Mascara on our thick fake eyelashes as per April's idea. Cherry on top? Green Eyes! We looked like Arabic Belly Dancers, except for our blouses which was longer than theirs'.

Not even our people recognized us!

"Holy Shit! Who are you? Avi, did you order some girls from Arabia?" Jake started. April frowned at him.

"My my! I might have. I was expecting some pretty stuff, not old cheap ones. Hashtag Disappointment!" He joined.

"Yeah. We are too much for you. You deserve Mannequins dressed as Arabian girls, so that you can go all Mushy and also show them the Man that you are!" April threw a fake smile and patted Jake.

"Guys. People started coming. Where are the Partyyy.... Who the eff is this?" He stared for 5 seconds at me and her and then started laughing. Thanks Nick, you were very helpful.

"You guys look perfect! I mean, I didn't recognize you. So, no one else would too! Now go on. You need to do the job of 6 of us here. Niha, I arranged the table with the fruit basket on it as you had asked for. You just sit there, don't move, okay?" I nodded. We bid Adieu and walked towards the entrance. They all wished us luck and Nick dropped me till there. The door was opened by Rami. He was the Male Party Planner who spoke over the phone with some of them.

This hall was completely decorated in Arabian way! So, it wasn't just us. There were tables at the corners with Magic Genie Lamps. There were Beautiful Golden with blue, pink and yellow glass shade light hanging from the ceiling in various layers that gave a dim yet aesthetic flavor to the beauty of the room! The Soft Drinks were supposed to be served in Golden carved Drinking Glasses. The entrance had curtains and the walls had the covering of the Flying Carpet, not kidding! All this was April's idea, straight out of Disney's Movie Aladdin! 

I sat down on a table which had a Golden fruit basket and April stood in the other side with a lamp in her Hand!

A Father, Mother and a Daughter entered first. They handed a piece of paper to us. We had to check if they actually had proof of their existence, unless Meera Aunty, nodded and confirmed she knew them. She was all Blooming today. In Red and Yellow Saree, she was the most excited one. It seems, she never hosted a party. So, this was double happiness along with a step towards T.

April kept the count of whoever came in, while, I took in their proof ID's. We did a lot of research regarding the evolution of surnames of our two Men and it seems, they have gone a long way. So, we took some major blood descendants and these family's whoever are related to them directly in blood, not Wife's Mother's Cousins's Son's Girlfriend. April did get a call like that yesterday and we had to laugh for half an hour!

"I'm sorry, but 3 of my family members couldn't be here." A girl in blue said. She looked perfect with the 4 inch heels and that long black hair! She must be 25 or something. "I love your eyes and your blouse!" She said to April and me, respectively. "Thank you!" We replied. 

Gosh, I totally forgot how beautiful were April's eyes. If I was a guy, I would definitely have proposed her by now because of those! One could look in it the whole day and still find new stories every minute in them and never get bored of how amazing it would make one feel. I'm so glad I ever met her. Gay much? Well, that's how I would explain my Best Friend. Oops.

I handed her a blindfold. "Wow, this is for the surprise?" she asked. Both of us nodded. She seemed excited.

There were people who couldn't get the number of people they had told over the phone, due to the late Party. So, all in all, we just got 28 up till 5: 50. We needed one more. Shit.

It was 6:15 and the party started. Everyone who had called came, but the number they said didn't. Probably kids and Grandparents couldn't make it. Also, it was Wednesday evening. So, double loss!

"Jake. We need One more person. We have 31, including Aunty, Uncle and Ihith. Doesn't look like any more people are going to come. What do we do?" I went inside and told Jake. He, along with all the boys, seemed more worried than we were, when we waited for that one person to show up in 45 minutes!

"No one from Aunty's side? What about Uncle's?" asked Nick. April joined me after she gave a little boy the balloon he wanted from the window.

"Nope! I don't think any more are going to join us. Whoever called, are all here. No new numbers and obviously the family members who chose not to come will not come anyways! I even asked Meera Aunty. She said no!" she added more frowns and Shits.

"Do you know any of T's cousin who might help us, or anyone for that matter who is related to T in any way and is kind of far when it comes to their families?" Nick asked Avi. "Did he ever mention about anyone, like, who wouldn't voluntarily call for this, but would be willing to come if we called?"

"No, not that I know of. Everyone I know through him are here!" He said. "What do we do now?"

"Well. What happens if we don't have 32 people?" Asked Jake. Everyone just stared at him with one eyebrow completely raised!

"You can't play a game of chess with only 31 coins, Jake! All our plan will go to hell. That's all that will happen." said April with the sweetest voice and the widest smile.

He gulped hard. He started sweating. He was hiding something! No wonder with the nonsense questions!

"You know someone who can make our 31, 32. Don't you? Now open up!" Ave did read Minds!

"No, I don't.. I mean, how can I, when you don't!" Jake was clearly doing Drama there.

"I swear to Niha's bullet shot knee right now, if you don't tell me what that stammering is about, I'll show what a Man, who hasn't been to the gym for 4 weeks can do! You open up, or I'll tear you down!" Nick looked damn serious as he walked towards Jake, who was taking steps back.

"Nick! Last time you told that, you broke your classmate's bones. Calm down. And Jake, you better speak." Avi took Nick away from Jake.

"Jake. We aren't your enemies or something. Why are you doing this?" I said. "Whatever or whoever it is, tell us. You know how hard it was for all of us to make this happen. Please, Jake!"

"You aren't my enemy, but that person is!" he said sitting heavily on the chair. "I've been hiding something about someone since almost 5 weeks!"

"What do you mean?"

"Iri. Iri is the person who can fit in and I really didn't want her to be a part of this! She is related to T from Uncle's side, I just now remembered. Remember Avi? T had told about her being a Relative? And, and.. well, she did offer to come, I cut her down!" Jake said. IRI?

"What the f*ck Jake? What the f*ck is she doing here? Wait.. Why the F*ck did she call you? What the f*ck does she want now? T is gone! She should be happy! And since 5 wee.. 5 weeks you are in contact with her?" Avi went crazy. So many f-words in one stretch? That's wasn't the Avi who was here a minute back. Who is she even?

"Avi. Listen to me. Right now, she's our only choice. We can talk about everything else later. Should I call her? You don't have to meet her, no one has to. She can just come to KRI, play and go. I promise you she doesn't know anything she shouldn't know." Jake said.

"Fine. Do it!" Nick joined in. "But, I swear Jake, if she happen to know anything that Rami or Doc told us and about Infinity, you are going to hell in my hands. I swear!"

"No ways! It's not happening. Anyone but her!" Avi suddenly had 2 minute back's Nick in his body right now. "So, she called you yesterday didn't she, around afternoon, when you went out of the place to talk to her signalling you can't hear because of April's voice? Wow, you are good at acting like nothing's happening, you Lying F*ck! T trusted you and when he's gone, you have been doing this!" Jake just put his head down. 

"Wait. Explain. Who's this IRI? What is so serious about her?" April stole mine and Aug's mind.

"Well. We are talking about Ms. Nirvana Varma, T's ex, the reason T became Shit-T from The Cool-T I knew!" Avi said, sitting down and breathing heavily. "Why the f*ck did she even come back? She knows we know all sides of her, yet she wants to mess with us? Me? She got once from me, she wants it again? That Bitch!"

"I'll explain everything to you guys, but I'll call her now. Okay? We need her now and this is one of the ways to cover like 0.01% of her sins towards T. Right?" Avi nodded, still eyeing Jake like today is his death day!

Jake went off relieved he is still alive. I just realized I'm in a room full of WWE Men ready to rip you off!

"Are you okay?" I said. I knew this Nirvana, (Wow, the name!), is a bitch, a huge one looking at the condition she had done of T. But, still the main thing was, Why was Jake in contact with her?

"Guys. She is on her way. Avi, be cool. We are just gonna need her for this and then bye bye! I am totally done with her too.Okay?" said Jake.

Avi didn't even see Jake. He was still angry. I thought T's ex was in Pune, doing her studies and also with her brand new boyfriend! Why is she here, that too, at this time? Did she come after T's missing, because she was worried? But, that's impossible! She didn't worry about him when he was with her, why would she now? Gosh! Why does this word Complicated come in loops? Once it starts, a new complication adds every night! Why??

When I just thought we'll have a peaceful evening..
