"Happy Birthday Ash!", Anshu shouted!
I started to scold her, "Don't shout so loud Anshu!". We started smiling at each other.
Anvesh was standing infront of me. He was capturing the moments and was teasing me!
"Woooh! Ash! You became old! Veeery old!", he started laughing at me sarcastically.
And then I rememebred Teja. I became angry. Why did he come into my thoughts. Hmm! This T E J A! He is spoiling my birthday! It was so good last year! I stopped playing the last year birthday video on my mobile and called my mom. She didn't take my call. Great! She must be asleep! I spent some time trying to figure out why Teja wasn't calling back and then I fell asleep.
My mobile which was supposed to ring at 12:00AM, didn't ring at all! Even Anshu and Anvesh didn't call me. Busy people! I was reminding them about my birthday a few days back! Hey! I am buying a dress for my birthday! That! This! Still..!
Anyway T E J A is an irresponsible person! So, there was no need to add him to the list of busy people. He doesn't even know how to call back when he looks at the missed calls in his mobile. I got up from the bed and checked the time. It was 6:45AM. How could I sleep when this T E J A guy is making me angry! Veeery angry!

My mobile rang!
"Ash! I will pick you up from your home in 30minutes!".
30 minutes! This should be a joke! I was about to reject it.
"Ok! See You!"
I called back and there was no answer from the other side.
I brushed my teeth! I started pacing my stuff trying to understand the situation.
There she is! Entering my home without permission!
"What is this! I told you to get ready!", Anshu started staring at me.
"I was sure that you were joking!" I sat down and started smiling.
She continued packing my stuff.
She turned to me and asked, "Where is the main thing?".
She turned to me and asked, "Where is the main thing?".
"What?" I asked her.
"The dress!", She widened her eyes and ordered me to bring it.
I placed it in my bag and she was answering the call from Ganesh!
"He should have come upstairs instead of bothering us with his calls!", I laughed at her. She showed me her teeth.
I was teasing her, "Early morning! Romantic drive! Huh! Got a good reason to come out! It's my birthday and it's just an excuse to hang out with Ganesh this way!"
She sat down, "Romantic Drive! Hmm..!". She was speaking to herself and smiling!
Her mobile rang again. She grabbed my hand without taking the call.
We were seated in the car. Ganesh was driving. Anshu was speaking to Ganesh. It was like I didn't exist. It feels the same when Anvesh and Teja are seated on the front.
Anshu asked me, Why are you smiling? Oh! Was I smiling?
I answered her, "Oh! I thought I became invisble! I feel invisible even when I am travelling with Anvesh and Teja!". Ganesh and Anshu started laughing!
I asked her, "Both of you! You didn't wish me yet!". She started showing her teeth again! Her smile is mysteriously wider than usual.
