The Last Goodbye

Chapter 22

The bags were filled, two bags to be exact one that looked so huge and the other a sack, as large as that of Divya herself. She couldn't understand how she was going to handle herself with so much luggage? She had told her mom that she won't be needing so many clothes, but who was going to listen to her. Akshi let out a huge huff as she called Nandini asking her whereabouts.

"We are at the sea link, will be there soon. What about you?" Nandini asked.

"I have reached the station, I am standing right where we had met last year. I can see a few of the juniors, rest I don't know." Divya replied glaring at Parth who was smiling goofily at her, the straw of some milkshake that he had been drinking since the last 10 min still in his mouth.

"Okay we will be there soon."

"yeah please do come soon, I can't tolerate these idiots any more." The moment she said that, Divya saw her brother walking towards her with a can of coke and chips. She wondered if her brother and Parth were here for a picnic themselves.

"So where are the others?" Dhruv asked.

"They are coming, and I guess you two can leave now I can go from here myself." Divya said as she looked around in a hope that she might somehow meet or see someone from her group.

"You sure? We can wait if you want." Parth finally let go off that straw and spoke. "No I am completely fine, moreover if you guys stay here longer I might actually start feeling home sick and would want to go back with you..." she gave him once over and commented, "and moreover I don't know what all new things you might get fascinated over here."

The two gave each other a sarcastic smile and decided to leave as Divya walked inside the terminal, deciding it would be better to wait for the other in the waiting area.

After about a long while finally the girls arrived and began squealing, for all the while that she had her brother and Parth by her side, she couldn't find herself getting excited, but seeing how the time was coming closer she felt herself getting excited almost on the verge of jumping around.

The girls began clicking pictures as then Simran introduced them to her friends, it was during that while Dev walked up to them along with Aman and handed Nandini a few bags, Aman himself went closer to Nandini and whispered something, then he saw her standing there almost confused. Waving at her he came to her and said,

"These bags have all the liquor, and other things that ma'am shouldn't get acquainted to...so please take care of them."

"I will, but yes , tell Dev that we didn't get his red bull, it's not there in any of the counters as well where are the rest of them?"

"They all will be coming directly at the platform. You guys wait here, I will be back in a few." The two along with Dhaval walked off to somewhere only God knew, leaving the rest to mingle around with Simran's friend. However Divya didn't like the way the boys had gone off just like that, it gave her a negative feeling, she feared the lot wouldn't come there on time. Thankfully, after about 20 mins she saw Aman and Dev making their way towards them, Nandini handed over the bags to them as they all began walking towards the platform. Since the train was to come on the platform no 2 and both Rohit and Parth had gone home, it was difficult for Divya to handle her bags, she was still struggling with the bags, when one of Simran's friend walked up to her and asked,

"Shall I give you a hand with this?" Divya looked up at him quite reluctantly; she wasn't sure if she could really take help from him, her eyes wandered off to simran who nodded her head slightly as if understanding her predicament. Divya smiled at the guy whose name she couldn't really collect and handed the suitcase to him.
