Chapter Three: Meet your Mr. Perfect
He stared at her dumbstruck face and he couldn't help but scowl. After having been through his fair share of accidental run down, he had grown immune to the annoying flies around. It wasn't the first and surely won't be the last. He could see through the tricks and had his ways to deal. Right now, however, he didn't have the patience to go through this. Without much thought, he barked, "Out."
Her shamelessly eyes trailed onto the length of his body but as soon as his voice reached her ears, it was as though it had knocked onto her numb brain and she stared back at the pair of fierce eyes. She would have appreciated the beauty in front of her eyes when she realized where she stood. Looking around, she saw the room that she was familiar with. Scattered across were the things that she recognized. Surely Sameer's, she thought pointedly. This was her best friend's room and not his.
Narrowing her eyes at his reflection, she frowned, 'Who did he think he was to order her around?' Unaware of the danger that could eat her alive, she stood her ground while he was growing annoyed. He was loosing the last bits of his patience and just then, the adjacent door creaked open.
With a towel wrapped around his hips, Sameer appeared straight out of the shower. He had another towel in his hand as he rubbed it on his head, towel drying his head. Seeing his best friend, Mishti frown, his nose scrunched up and he looked at his would be cousin-in-law, Abir who looked no better. 'Eh, what's wrong?'
"Hey, Mish!" his lips curved into a charming grin as he tried averting her attention. Her eyes snapped to Sameer and before she could gather her thoughts to reply to him, he stated, "How's my wedding preparation going on?"
"You idiot," she scowled at him due to the reminder of the events that she had just had. That was a narrow escape but how long was she going to escape those notorious aunties and their haughty comments. She had no clue. In spite of witnessing Sameer shrink back, she glared at him, "Why the hell do you have to marry? Could you for once think what would this do to me? You are being so mean and cruel, Sameer."
Abir, who stood silently at the corner watching the drama unfold, raised his eyebrows. 'Is he cheating on Nisha?' The mere thought made his veins pop out. 'Or maybe she is just one of those clinging girls,' with that thought he decided to lean back and observe.
Sameer, on the other hand, couldn't help but sigh, "You know, you don't mean it." He threw the towel he was drying his hair with onto the nearby chair as he helplessly pointed out. He knew her better. "No matter what anyone says, you know it's not your fault that you haven't met your perfect one yet. There's one for everyone. Believe me, when that happens, no one can dare but swallow their words. Okay?" He cautiously explained. She let put a deep breath, knowing it wasn't his fault but it always felt good to know that she had someone to rely on.
Briefly nodding at him, she thoughtfully asked, "Since when did you become a wise man? Seems like Nisha has good influence on you!" the glint in her eyes returned as she teased.
"Of course, she is," he wore a proud smile and dreamy eyes. "And who know's you will meet your Mr. Perfect at my wedding itself," he said as an after thought to which she couldn't help but roll her eyes. 'Sure, I will,' she thought, unaware how true his words were.
After having gotten a brief idea, Abir cleared his throat interrupting the two friends, "I believe you should put some clothes on." He pointed at Sameer's semi-nude status. It was only then that duo was reminded of another person's existence in the room. Not wanting to leave the two in another awkward situation, he introduced the two before collecting his clothes and walking straight to the adjacent room.

This chapter is more of a filler, so I haven't placed much hope on this one. Because for me this could have been much better. It still lacks something. Not sure of what that is. By the way, next chapter onwards we start with the wedding functions.
