FOUR PATHS, ONE GOAL
Four girls from four different cities and all different from each other - an enthusiastic photographer,a budding artist,an aspiring cook and one who dreams to be a fashion icon,the girls are on their way to a camp.
What will ha...
"Get up girls. it's already afternoon," called ma "Had a good sleep, you three?"
"Oh thank you, Ms Gupta, for waking us or else we would be sleeping till evening"
"My pleasure girls. now get ready fast your food is on the table" ma answered while keeping her office bag on the table with a smile.
"Ma, didn't you get to the office today?"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you today is Saturday so there was a half-day. So, I returned home early." Ma started her new job at a startup company and I am still getting accustomed to it.
"Okay, mom. By the way, where are you going?"
"I have to go to our new neighbours' house. they need some help with settling down in their house. So that's why."
"Okay then, bye mom"
"Bye Ish I will be back by evening," she said and planted a kiss on my cheek.
"So girls what's the plan," I said after my mother left.
"Oh we will meet Oliver at the cafe Central caffeine, remember today is his birthday. We will be spending the whole day with Oliver," said Ally in one breath
"Ok first take a deep breath, Ally. back to the subject how much time do we have until we meet Oliver as we have not decided on any gift for him"
"We have just 15 minutes and don't panic about the gift I and Ally have decided about the gift," said Lily, calmly and content.
So we got dressed into our favourite summer dress still we were 5 minutes ahead, so we had the last-minute touch-ups to ourselves with guidance from the fashion Queen, yours truly.
We were on our way to the park. "So what you to have planned for his gift," I asked curiously.
"Oh yes we talked to your boss and she agreed on a party. So we will engage him for the whole day and then give him a surprise for his birthday at Cafe when Ms Silvers gives us the green signal about it," said Lily.
"So is it clear to you because you are not good at keeping surprises, last time when we have given a surprise to Lily for her birthday you told her all about the surprise," said Ally sternly. We reached our destination and paid the fare.
"Hey guys what trio is planning without me?" said Oliver from the back.
"Um, nothing just talking. By the way, Happy Birthday, Oliver" we said in unison.
"Thanks for that girls." Said Oliver with a smile on his face. "So I think we should go to Central Park first and then decide only what we should do, how does it sound?" "Yeah whatever but first let's take coffee like you came here and did not take a coffee. That's a sin!" said Ally and we laughed at her stupidity, let me tell you Ally is a grand coffee addict, all opted for coffee except me, I chose a blueberry muffin.
"Great!!" Said lily. "Let's go."
"What happened to her she is behaving weird today anything happened between you girls?" Oliver interrogated me and Ally. We shook our heads in confusion.
"I think she didn't like her school," said Oliver thoughtfully.
"No that's not ...."
"Are you lot coming or not?" came Lily's voice from the street.
"Yeah, we are coming. You are walking very fast even a tall guy like me can't catch up with you. Please do not trouble the birthday boy" said Oliver. "Trouble your two besties"
Thud. Well not a fan of violence but good job, Ally. " Ow that was rude I am a birthday boy please be kind to me today. Please" said Oliver with his puppy face which looked anything but cute.
We broke in to laugh. Ally gave a pat on Oliver's shoulder and frolicking we reached the park. We spent some time and then went to more places like-Bronx zoo and many more. We also went to our favourite ice cream parlour "creamy cream".
"Do you still believe that Ms Silvers gave me a holiday?"
"Yeah, Oliver she is very good, but sometimes she is pathetic" I echoed Oliver's thoughts.
"I loved that you said given the fact that you are her favourite amongst all of us," said Oliver to me. We four burst into a roaring laugh attracting the attention of passersby who were mumbling "stupid kids" and "teenagers nowadays". Slowly the evening took over, we were sitting on the footpath reminiscing the old memories of our primary school. There was a chime on Lily's phone making her screen brighten up with a 1D lock screen.
"Um guys, let's go to Ms Silvers's cafe. I want some vanilla bean doughnuts for mom. You know how much she loves it" said Lily. She gave me and Ally a look and we received the message.
"Yeah why not," said Oliver. We watched a cab with Oliver sandwiched between me and Ally.
"Oh Ally, you should cut down some carbs."
Ally just rolled her eyes and pushed Oliver resulting in me hitting my head on the window. "Oomph" I glared at them both. Stupidiots- you get that stupid+idiots. Well, ignore that!
We reached jumping beans' café- Ms Silvers café. It was all dark as a pocket, we couldn't see anything.
"Is there a power cut? Hello, Ms Silvers?" said Oliver.
"Oh, Mr Anderson. finally, You got time to meet us" said a cold voice behind Oliver. Ollie stiffened and he turned around and the lights switched on. We saw Ms Silvers carrying his birthday cake. she smiled affectionately. "Happy birthday Oliver" And the party started, Oliver, the girls and I were laughing at a picture clicked by Max-our colleague in which Ms. silvers was standing with a cake behind a wide-eyed Oliver.
"So, how was the party, Mr-" I tugged at Ms Silvers's sleeve. "I mean Oliver, how is it?"
"Thanks for this Ms Silvers. I loved it. Thank you all of you for coming to this party."
The night was spent well there was karaoke, disco and most remarkable of them all was a piano performance by Ms silvers.
