Chapter: 9

The next morning everyone got up with a smile and we're very excited for the engagement ceremony that was about to take place. This was the first wedding of their group and they were very happy about it. The day started with the youngsters having their breakfast and dividing their work. The girls took over the responsibility of Zoe's makeup and looking after the guests while the boys decided to look after the preparations and the gifts. The girls and boys decided to get ready in Zoe and Rayan's rooms respectively. The engagement was Princess themed and thus the girls were wearing gowns and the boys were wearing Tuxedos. Their entire day went with boys looking after the preparations while the girls spent their day pampering themselves and talking about everything.

Finally, it was 6 in the evening and all of them decided to get ready because the guests were supposed to arrive at 8:00 - 8:30. The girls got ready in their white gowns and started helping Zoe who was wearing her pink gown for her special evening. The girls helped her with her hair, her makeup and her jewelry. After some time Zoe's mom entered and was in tears looking at her baby who is about to get engaged. After talking with them for a few minutes she moved towards the garden area along with all the girls as they knew the guests were about to come. While in the boy's room Abraham and Zubin got ready in their black tuxedos and Rayan was wearing his pink and black tuxedo. They got ready and were waiting for Imara's call as a signal so that they move down.

The girls received the guests with loads of respect and love. While for the guests they were mesmerized with the palace first and the beautiful princess themed decorations which were pink and white in color which indicated peace and love. There was slow romantic music that was played in the background. After half of the guests arrived Imara called up Abraham asking them to be down with Rayan. While Amber and Aaliyah and Imara moved towards Zoe's room to get her down. They helped her with the gown and they reached the garden. While Zoe was excited and nervous at the same time. She has been waiting for this moment for years and when it's finally taking place she is nervous. Looking at her the three girls understood that their Bestfriend was nervous. They immediately consoled her and moved towards the stage where Rayan got down and asked for her hand and escorted her towards the sitting. While the entire hall was still looking at the pretty to- be -the bride. After sometime Imara got the ring for Zoe and Zubin got the ring for Rayan and finally, they exchanged the rings. The entire hall was filled with cheers and claps. While Rayan kissed Zoe's knuckles after making her wear the ring. The gang jumped on them taking them in a bear hug and after that Zoe's father and Rayan's father raised the toast.

After that the DJ was playing all romantic songs and the couple were called up on the stage for a beautiful dance, while others also joined them after some time. After a beautiful dance everyone moved towards the dinner. They had their food and after congratulating the couple guest started moving out.

After all the guests left, the gang moved towards their respective rooms to get changed into their nightdresses and sleep. They slept early because they were tired and as decided tomorrow was Monday and they were going out to explore Udaipur.

The next morning bought with it a lot of happiness and peace for everyone except Zubin. He was still confused with his feelings, Imara's behavior, Abraham's feelings. He couldn't actually understand what was going with him. But thing that he understood was something was there that they are unknown off in Imara's life. Leaving his thoughts aside he moved towards the washroom to get ready and after having their breakfast the gang decided to move out after informing the elders. They took a big 10 seater SUV and decided to visit a few places:

1) Sukhadia Circle

2) Gulab Bagh and Zoo

3) Doodh Talai Musical garden

4) Fateh Sagar Lake

5) City Palace

6) Light and sound show

The visit was very happening. They fought for food like kids, the saw the place, they saw the musical garden and the girls were totally lost in it. They did boating and then finally the went to see the light and the sound show. In all this, the girls got time for each other and they understood Imara again. While for Imara she was very happy with the days as they were going. She and Abraham enjoyed boating together which they enjoyed a lot. While for Zubin he hated seeing them together. He hated seeing Abraham knowing Imara's each and every choice, he hated seeing them eating in one plate, he hated seeing them boating together. He hated it more because she didn't even talk to him. He felt like he didn't exist only. All of them were tired after roaming around the city and they all fell asleep as they sat In the car with Zubin driving and Rayan sitting beside him. While Imara and Abraham took the last seat along with Amber.

While Imara was sleeping with her head on Abraham's chest and his chin on her head and hands wrapped around her. They were asleep. While for Zubin he was continuously looking at them through the mirror which was clearly seen by Rayan but he decided to talk about it with Zoe and then Zubin. After some time they reached the palace and everyone got up except for Imara who was still lost in her beauty sleep. While looking at her Abraham didn't feel like waking her up because he knew she doesn't sleep peacefully at night due to her nightmares and a lot of times he sleeps with her so that she doesn't get afraid. While the others were waiting for Imara to wake up. Zubin said "Abraham wake Imara up. She looks tired to let her go to her room and sleep peacefully"

While others nodded listening to him. "Guys, let her sleep. I'll pick her up and then drop her to her room because if she wakes up now then she won't be able to sleep again. So let's move I'll pick her up", replied Abraham. Listening to him everyone nodded while Zubin was burning in anger so he immediately left from there saying he was tired. Looking at him everyone felt odd but still they let him be and they also moved towards their respective rooms as they were very tired and tomorrow morning they have Haldi too. So they have to look after the preparations and Haldi and all. They wished each other good night and moved towards their room and Imara was in Abraham's arms he laid her on her bed and removed her shoes, socks so that she can sleep properly and covered her with a blanket and after checking the AC temperature moved towards his room and slept after changing. It was a beautiful day for all except Zubin.
