(Lily POV)
Well my innocent bestie don’t know where we are going but I have that huge smile plastered on my face in entire journey she became a little bit suspicious that I am up to something but she did not know it yet. I tried very best to suppress my smile but failed. My smile grew bigger every time when I saw expressions on her face because she didn’t even think about it even in her wildest dream.
Well! Here we are, at our final destination.
“What the Hell! Lily you know I love my hairs and there is no way in hell that I will get a haircut” She complained in loud voice.
But I somehow convinced her that her hair cut will help to change her entire look and will be the last touch to her entire transformation.
She is still a little bit reluctant but I dragged her in. I know my Ronnie very well that’s why I already ordered and instructed them about the hair treatment and haircut which I know will make her more attractive and dazzling.
“Ronnie if you still feel hesitation then close your eyes and let them work” I know my innocent friend will accepted my advice. Baby it’s for your good, you will thanks me later.
(Veronica POV)
I hesitantly close my eyes and start praying to God that it will make my look better or I will kill lily for sure today.
“Mam, you can open your eyes now” One stylist said to me. I don’t know how much time have passed because I just know they washed my hairs and applied god knows how many creams then again washed, Blow dried and these took lots of time and now I inhaled and exhaled and with the name of god I start opening my eyes.
“O My God! It’s just amazing” I gasped and commented truthfully.
My hairs was nearly reached to my knees and now they are just shoulder length and natural brown color of my hairs changed into ash black with my favorite chestnut strikes and all the curls are gone and now they are straight but goddess it looks like I am staring in to another girl who is bold, confident and more attractive than me.
I can’t even think about this transformation a day ago and here I am now totally changed from yesterday. I can bet that my parents and brothers will not recognize me if they saw me now. I am totally different from the timid, broken and shy girl of yesterday.
“Lily! I love you and thank you” I hugged her and before I start crying she pat on my shoulder.
“Girl! Crying is not allowed with this beautiful makeover” She teased my and we both start laughing.
We paid them and Start our journey back to home Hence, We both are too tired now so, we picked our meals from McDonalds and came back home.
“I am too tired now and I think sleeping is the best idea for now. What’s say?” I asked lily after finished my burger.
“I agree with you, let’s go and sleep”.
Today is my first day and I woke up half an hour early than usual because I don’t want to be late and first I make some pan cakes for both of us and then I have to wake her up. Surprisingly she is already up, I think she remembered her lesson from yesterday’s event. I open my wardrobe to select a dress for today but it seems these all are unfit for today. Now, what will I wear? There is not enough time to buy a new dress for college. I close the wardrobe and headed toward kitchen to make some coffee for me and lily both.
“Hey girl! Good Morning and I selected a dress for you to wear today” Lily said while sitting on a chair.
“Thanks lil! I was wondering what I did that good to deserve a best friend like you” I said while kissing on her cheek and serve her breakfast.
“I am willing to help in anything as long as you give such divine and tasty meals to me” She said while taking another bite of the pancake and we both start laughing.
I entered in my new college and silently prayed to goddess that this decision will prove best for me. I collected my schedule and we have only two same lectures but thank god my first lecture will be English literature and Lily is also in it. We headed towards our class.
After the bell rang. Professor entered in the class and Start with introducing himself. His name is Mr. Brown and he will teach us English literature in this semester. He told us about the History portion and how we covered syllabus and few more basic things.
“I feel English literature is a boring lecture. What about you?” Lily asked me.
“Well, I like English literature that’s why I enjoyed my whole first lecture”. I told her honestly at which she just rolled her eyes.
“You have such a boring soul stuck in you Ronnie” She commented and I just laughed at her comment.
“Well we have 6th lecture same so, Where we will meet?” I asked her.
“Well, we have a break before 6th lecture so, see ya in cafeteria” She said and headed towards her second lecture. I have to find my class which is also my favorite ‘Sketching’. I like sketching from childhood and I also used to sketch when I am frustrated so, it helps me to channel my energy.
I find an empty seat in the second row and I put my books and bag there. I start sketching because there is still some time left in second class. I indulged so much in my sketching that I didn’t realize when the bell rang. When Professor of our drawing class knocked on the door then I realized that our second lecture started. I hurriedly put my sketch book in my bag and start taking notes of the lecture.
Finally bell rang for the break and headed towards cafeteria and find Lily chatting with her friend or fellows probably. When she saw me she said bye to them and start walking towards me.
We buy our lunch and I tell her about my day till now and then we headed towards or next class while chatting.
“Please spare me! Please don’t do this!” I heard someone is pleading and crying. My head snapped towards the voice but I can’t see anything as there was a huge crowd already. But it seems no one is helping the person because he or she is still crying and begging for help.
“Lily! What is this? What is happening here?” I asked her in a concerned voice but she become silent.
“Lily! Cat caught your tongue? Please tell me I am asking something” I again said while shaking her arm.
