✨ Innaya's City Adventure – Boutique Shopping ✨

The cab glided through the bustling streets, the golden afternoon sun casting a warm glow on the cityscape. Shops buzzed with activity, people hurried past, and street vendors called out in cheerful chaos. Innaya pressed her forehead lightly against the car window, taking it all in—so many colors, sounds, and smells unlike anything she'd experienced before.

Innaya's POV:
"Everything is so... alive! I can't believe I'm actually out here, in a new city, on my own. And I get to shop for my reception outfit? This is unreal."

The cab stopped in front of a boutique adorned with sparkling lights and a neatly arranged display of evening gowns. She stepped out, adjusting her black outfit, and took a deep breath.

Inside, the boutique was a paradise of fabrics, glittering sequins, and designer shoes. A friendly attendant approached her with a warm smile.
Attendant: "Good afternoon! Looking for something special?"
Innaya (smiling nervously): "Yes... for a reception. I want something elegant... but not too over-the-top."

The attendant's eyes sparkled. "We have just the pieces. Follow me."

👗 Trying on Dresses

Innaya tried on several dresses—flowy pastels, sequined silvers, royal blues—but none felt quite right. Some were too stiff, others too flashy. Finally, she slipped into a deep emerald-green gown, the color perfectly complementing her eyes. The dress hugged her figure elegantly, with delicate embroidery along the neckline and subtle shimmer along the hem.

Innaya (to herself in the mirror): "This... this feels right. Comfortable, elegant... like me."

She twirled, watching the fabric flow around her. Her lips curled into a delighted smile.

Attendant: "It suits you beautifully. Very sophisticated and graceful. You'll turn heads in this, for sure."

Innaya couldn't help laughing softly. "I hope so... I have to survive the Rathoure family's eyes first."

😂 A Funny Encounter

As she stepped out to look at some accessories, a small commotion at the entrance caught her attention—a little girl had accidentally knocked over a display of scarves. Innaya rushed over to help, steadying the scarves and smiling at the embarrassed child.

Innaya: "It's okay, don't worry! Accidents happen."
The little girl looked up at her with wide eyes, and a soft voice said, "Thank you, ma'am."

Innaya chuckled to herself. "Even in the city, I have to be careful... I guess being polite never goes out of style."

👜 Final Selection and Heading Back

With her gown chosen and a few accessories tucked neatly into a shopping bag, Innaya called Myra to update her.
Innaya: "Mama, I found the perfect dress! It's elegant and simple... I hope you'll like it."
Myra: "I'm sure it's beautiful, beta. I trust your choice. Come back safely, and we'll start preparing for the reception."

Innaya smiled, feeling a warm glow of independence and excitement. She hailed a cab, ready to return to the mansion, clutching her bag of treasures and her heart full of anticipation for the reception—and the new chapter of her life with the Rathoures. 🌸

✨ Reception Evening – Gifts, Reactions, and Jealousy ✨

The Rathoure mansion glimmered in the soft evening lights. Innaya, dressed in her emerald-green gown, carried her carefully wrapped gifts, her heart fluttering with nervous excitement.

She first handed Abhimanyu the sleek black-faced Rolex.

Innaya (smiling nervously): "Papa... I wanted to give you something special."

Abhimanyu's eyes softened, a rare, warm smile spreading across his face.
Abhimanyu: "Innaya... this is thoughtful. Thank you, beta."
He fastened the watch on his wrist, looking genuinely pleased.

Next, Innaya handed Myra the delicate silver pendant.
Innaya: "Mama... for you. A little something to remind you how amazing you are."

Myra's lips curved into a gentle smile as she took the pendant.
Myra: "Thank you, beta. It's beautiful... just like your heart."

Then came Kabir, bouncing forward eagerly.
Kabir (grinning): "You got something for me?"
Innaya (playful smile): "Yes... just a small thing. You've been nice to me, so I thought you deserved it."

He opened the box and found the blue-faced Rolex. His eyes widened in shock and delight.
Kabir (excitedly): "Wow! A Rolex? For me? Thank you, Innaya!"

😂 Boys' Reactions – Shock and Jealousy

As the gifts were handed out, the Rathoure sons watched silently from a corner. Their expressions shifted from curiosity to disbelief, and finally, a hint of jealousy bubbled beneath the surface.

Eshan (gritting his teeth slightly): "Wait... she bought Rolexes? For Kabir and Dad? And... for Mama too?"
He exchanged a sharp glance with Rudra, his jaw tightening.

Rudra (coldly, voice low): "How... how can she afford this? Myra's salary isn't nearly enough for such luxury."

Aayan (raising an eyebrow, calculating): "That's... extravagant. Even for a wealthy family, these are serious gifts."

Zayan (muttering): "She just bought all this... effortlessly?"

The boys felt a mix of shock, disbelief, and a strange jealousy—how could someone so new to the family suddenly command attention and give such luxurious gifts? The cool, distant looks they exchanged with Innaya reflected both suspicion and curiosity.

Innaya's POV:
"Oh... they're watching me closely. I hope they don't misunderstand. I just wanted to be thoughtful..."

Despite the tension, the atmosphere softened slightly as Abhimanyu and Myra expressed genuine happiness and pride. Even Kabir beamed, proudly showing off his Rolex, completely oblivious to the silent envy simmering nearby.

Myra (softly, to Innaya): "Don't worry, beta. The boys are just surprised. Give them time—they'll understand your heart."

Innaya (nodding, whispering to herself): "I hope so... I really want to belong here, even if it takes time."

The evening continued with polite conversations, laughter, and subtle exchanges, but in the back of Innaya's mind, she could feel the watchful eyes of the Rathoure sons—curious, impressed, and quietly jealous, slowly realizing that this new girl had just shifted the balance in their grand household. 🌸
