Riya's POV :
"Now we welcome Riya Madhav to the dias to collect the certificate and the medal" said the girl with the mic.
Today is the day I graduate from my college. Today is the day where I realise all the efforts I put in are definitely worth it. No more running late to college, no more sleepless studying nights, no more waking up early in the morning, no more skipping breakfast. I finally can relax at my home, spend time with my family and sleep till noon.
I collected my certificate and medal and came down to be greeted by my mom Sameera and my dad Anant. They were so delighted to see me on the stage that they took 50 pictures of me. These photos would be out soon on the Whatsapp family group. Typical.
Tara, my best friend since forever, came running towards me and engulfed me in a tight hug. I am damn sure she broke a few bones of mine. "Yaaayyy.....we made it !" she squealed. We broke our hug and I saw Dev coming down from the stage. We both went towards him and we enjoyed a group hug. Me, Dev and Tara were the trio which the whole college was jealous of. We had a lot of fun and we would study only on the day before exam. We get pretty good scores. Me and Dev would fight over who got the highest mark. I get the highest mark every time and he ends up sitting grumpily in the canteen. Those were golden days !
"You are coming to the party tonight, right ?" asked Dev. "Never in a million years I would say no to a party. And of course it's our last college party. How could I say no ?" I said. "Before you make plans Riya, did you get permission from your mom ? Cause you are a momma's little girl !" Tara said and burst out in laughter. "I am 24 Tara ! I vote and I have my driving license and I know to iron my shirt ! This is more than enough to attend a party" I said. "Fine" she said. We all bid farewell and I drove home with my parents.
The party went well. Tara was way too drunk and she ended up puking five times in the restroom. I already warned her but I know she would not listen to me. Me and Dev were the ones to carry her to the restroom everytime she stopped blabbering. We knew something was gonna come so we had to keep an eye on her. I drank a few shots. I was not in a mood to get drunk and I didn't want to wake up tomorrow having a head throbbing pain. Dev didn't drink because he was the one to drop us off at our home today. We didn't want to end the day locked up in the cell for drunk and drive case.
I spent the next two days waking up late, laughing with my parents while watching the TV shows, roaming in the house, and watching movies till late night. But this is not the life I want. I wanted to work. That's the only reason I completed my Master's degree in business administration. I always wanted to have a chilled posting with a big salary. I got a few job proposals in my campus placement but none of them were appealing to me. It was either a 9 to 5 job with 6 digit salary or a job with no importance. I didn't want either. So I thought it is better to wait for a perfect job. Dev already got a placement in Bangalore. Tara, as she wished for, got a job in Singapore.
24th of June, 2021. I didn't know that it was the day when my life took a different turn. I received an email on my laptop. I started shouting in my room. My parents thought I was stabbed on my stomach by a burglar and rushed to my room upstairs. As soon as they opened the door, I jumped on my mother and she stumbled backward. Thank God my dad caught her from behind or else my mom would have got few stitches in her head. "What happened idiot ! Was it another nightmare you had ? I told you not to watch horror movies late at night ! God ! I cannot believe I gave birth to you ! Get down from me now !" she harshly said. I got down but I didn't listen to any of her other words. "Ma ! Pa ! I got a job proposal ! " I exclaimed. "So what ? You get one every week and you end up rejecting them. What's new ?" dad said. But Mr. Anant did not know the company I was talking about. "Pa ! It's from Pleasing !!!!" I shrieked.
