"Is that so? If you guys are really stress reliever then why are you guys sitting there silently? Aren't you guys supposed to help me to calm my nerves but here…."
Lucinda was about to say something when Willa cut her in midway and completed her sentence…
"Here we are laughing at you...right?"
"Hell right!! Now come on give me some motivational speech like the other friends do. Come on, hurry up.." Lucinda literally ordered them.
Veronica and Willa shared a glance at each other and then turned their faces towards Lucinda before again bursting out in a pool of laughter.
Looking at the laughing faces of the girls, Lucinda yelled on them, "You guys are gone now. Both of you're dying by my hand today."
As soon as the words left from Lucinda's mouth, she jumped on the bed and started hitting them with a pillow.
Though Willa and Veronica hadn't expected the sudden fiery attack of Lucinda but still they gained their energy back and picking up two others pillows in their hands, they started hitting Lucinda back...
Soon it turned into a pillow fight between the three girls and the room erupted in huge laughter. The three besties kept fighting with each other but in a harmless manner without caring about anything..
At this moment, the door got opened and a yelp came out of the intruder's mouth.
The girls were so much indulged into their sweet yet naughty moment that they didn't hear the sound but they got into a completely silent mode when they heard the anger filled voice of an elderly lady...
"What are you girls doing? Look what have you done to the room. Everything is upside down here...
You girls are already so grown up that two of you have boyfriends and another one is going to get engaged today. But if someone look at you guys, then they will stamp you as some children.." Lucinda's mother, Mrs. Wilson shouted.
"Hehehe Aunt.. don't get angry on us please. We're just trying to make your nervous daughter get relieved. Right now her system is full of tension, anxiety and worries...
That's why we are just having some pillow fight to make her forget all of these stupid thoughts so that she can relax a bit." Veronica pouted sweetly as she described the whole thing.
Mrs. Wilson smiled at Veronica as her cuteness level was on it's peak and said, "Alright.. Do whatever you guys want to. I just came to ask if you guys need some snacks or anything else."
"I want choco-ch.i.p.s pastry." Veronica announced raising her right hand in air like a child, making Mrs. Wilson laugh.
"Me too." Willa said.
"But I want to eat.."
Again before Lucinda could say something, Veronica interrupted..
"You're on a fast today. Girls shouldn't eat on their engagement day. So you're not going to eat anything." Veronica joked, winking at Willa and Mrs. Wilson who just laughed it off.
Lucinda slapped Veronica on her shoulder and said, "You just shut up. If anyone should eat the most today...then it should be me. And Mom I want butterscotch ice-cream."
Chuckling at the cute and childish behavior of those three girls, Mrs. Wilson said, "Fine.. I'm sending these in a few minutes by someone."
The girls excitedly nodded their heads as an approval.
After Mrs. Wilson left the room by shutting the door close, three of them fell on the bed together, lying on the soft mattress on their back as they kept looking at the white ceiling..
"Time passes so fast, nah? It's like just yesterday we born then we become friends without knowing anything about friendship in our toddler age. Then our friendship grew more at school and the bond grew stronger...
For higher studies, we chose different courses but still our friendship hadn't weakened. Then Willa entered in our life and our friend zone got more stronger and powerful...
And now we're already committed with our new life and own lovers who love us more than their own lives.." Veronica said while remembering the memories of her childhood and then a.d.u.l.thood.
Lucinda smiled when she heard this and spoke in a low voice, "Yeah.. Who would've thought before that today the three of us would be in love with those three boys...with whom we fought for every single thing in the past.."
This made Willa broke into a big smile as she thought about Neil and said, "Exactly.. Specially in my case, I've never thought that I'd date a guy like Neil one day. But look where fate has brought us today.."
Silence passed through the room as the three best friends chose to not say anything and savour the peacefulness of the pleasant atmosphere by gazing at the ceiling.
But few minutes later, Veronica broke the silence when she remembered something in her wonderful mind and asked, "Even we've changed so much in these years…but one thing still hadn't changed yet nor will change even in future.. Do you guys have any idea about it?"
Lucinda turned her face at her left side to look at Veronica with puzzled expression whereas Willa turned to her right as Veronica was lying between both of them.
"No.. I don't have idea about what are you talking.. It can't be our friendship because it gets stronger each passing day. Then what is it?" Willa couldn't guess it even after trying for few minutes.
"Ditto.. I also can't think of anything." Lucinda too replied.
Veronica gave them both a mischievous smile and muttered slyly, "The thing which hadn't changed is our torturous skill over the boys. In the past also , we disturbed them like some evil witches and now too...
Even the amount of torment on them had only increased day by day. Our poor boyfriends!! Sometimes I really want to salute them for tolerating our tantrums regularly.."
This made the walls of the room resonated with another fits of laughter...
"Well, I have to agree on that." Willa said while laughing.
"Actually... It's one of a hell like truth.." Lucinda said while trying to inhale some air as she was out of breath because of laughing too hard but stopped when a knock interrupted them...
