ADHIRA'S POV

TRINGGG!!!!TRINNNGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

I shut the alarm and wake up.

Well you can tell I'm an early riser

I do my morning chores and then get ready for the hospital.

I wear a simple Blue Kurti with blue denim jeans, earrings a little bit of lip balm.I usually don't wear makeup, I just like my natural skin and left my hair open.

I head downstairs and then into the dining to see my uncle, aunt, Anaya, and shruti.

"hello di, good morning"shruti wishes me

"good morning" I wish her back

Well, I and shruti get along really well, she's like my own sister. While Anaya I don't even know why she despises me.

"This is not a hotel where you can wakeup when ever you want?" my aunt says to me

lo hogaya daily dose, it's like she can't live even a day without making remarks at me

"beta chal jaldi khale" my uncle says to me

(child, now eat soon)

"Nahi, chachu Mujhe already late hogaya hai main chalti hu,"i say back

(no,no, uncle it's already late I'll leave)

"at least I paratha, it's ur favorite paneer paratha," he says to me

"ok" I answer and take one paratha and wish bye to others and leave for hospital

well I can never tell no to paneer. I love them so much

As I make my way out I see Ritika waiting with her scooter.

"yar, how many times have I told you to eat and come, you know even if I a chance to kill that aunty of your's, I'll kill her with my bare hands," she says twisting her other fisted hand.

"first ,shall we leave for the hospital now," I say as she scowls and starts the scooter.

Ritika isn't a person who loses her cool soon, but it's no less than facing Mahakali when she does. sometimes she picks me up as my house is on her way to the hospital.

As we reach the hospital we go to Shreya's cabin

"Happy Birthday Shreyaaaa, "me and Ritika say in unison

"aawwww, I thought u people will not come only today," she says pauses and continues

"Thankyou," she says and hugs

"After work hum log hamare cafe  jaare hain,thumhare birthday celebrate karne"ritika says

(After work we'll go our cafe and celebrate  your birthday)

Well, Hamara cafe Nahi hai, Hamara college ka dost ka hai

Shreya is an orphan, so we usually celebrate her birthday.

"bye, now we'll meet in the evening, "I say and drag Ritika along with me

•○●○•

LATER IN THE EVENING

After I reach home I read a few reports and then get ready to leave for the cafe

"di where are you going?" shruti asks me

"cafe, today's Shreya's birthday na"I answer her

"then wait, even I have to wish, give me two minutes, I'll get ready and come," she says and runs almost tripping on the stairs.

I just chuckle at her childishness.

Shruti likes Shreya a lot as they share very similar interests like pranking and stuff.

"let's go," Shruti says I nod, and then we take our car and reach the cafe

IN THE CAFE

"Shruti also came?"Ritika asks 

"why di, you don't want me here?" shruti asks

"shut up you both"I silence them

Ritika and shruti like each other but always try to get on each other's nerve

"Now how long will it take for Shreya to come?"I ask

"she messaged me that she'll be here in a few" she answers back

"what are you both gifting her?" shruti asks wiggling her eyebrows

"Wait, there's something called patience," Ritika says

"Mujhe kehti hai ki don't act childish and you yourself are behaving silly," a voice says

(you tell me not to act childish and you yourself act silly)

"Shreya di iii" shruti squeals and goes and hugs her

"Happy Birthday" she wishes

"Thankyou Shru" she thanks her

"now cut the cake, "Ritika says placing the cake on the table

We all sing happy birthday as she cuts the cake and then feeds us

"Now where are my presents, come on"Shreya asks

Before I could answer,we hear 2 voices coming from the reception

"what do you mean by take this table,I booked that table, how could you even do that huh?" a voice of a man's voice says

"Sir, please try to understand sir, I'll give you another table"a voice of whose we recognized as our college friend Ryan's.

We all look at each other, actually asking each other if they know what happened.
