“That’s it for the night. All the guests in the wedding party are all checked in.”

Aarohi placed her headset on the table in the large room that Akshara and her team took over as the control center for the event. Akshara and her team arrived a few days prior at the resort to get everything set up for the weekend wedding with the major events lined up back to back.

“Good. Please ensure we have extra security covering all employee entrances as well. We cannot have any paparazzi enter the building.”

“That’s taken care of.”

“Go get some sleep.” Akshara patted her best friend’s shoulder.

“You’re the one who needs to sleep most.”

Akshara winked. “I’ll start sleeping on Sunday evening.”

“Don’t start your zombie phase yet.” Aarohi laughed.

“Why wouldn’t I be? I can’t wait.” She shrugged.

“I thought you were busy supporting the events for the newly formed political party.”

“We are still at the inception phase with the political events, and we would be providing basic services like catering and taking care of logistics. My core team and I get to catch a break.”

“Okay, good. Hope you enjoy the tour.”

“Sounds good.” She smiled and leaned closer and whispered, “Are you ready for your dance tomorrow?”

He leaned closer, filling the space around her with his woody and masculine cologne and whispered back, “I don’t know.”
