A Menace

I can't believe I said yes to this girl.

She skips along next to me, jumping on the red carpet rolled down, while I march furiously, my footsteps exerting on the carpet with thumps, an outlet for my rage.

Rage for what? For the messy hole I am stuck in and Amara is blissfully unaware of it.

It started well once I got such a big sudden clue that Kabir is Vihaan's uncle and then it sky dipped once I met my father and Mr.Leela here on the same ship.

This ruins everything-my father is going to kill me once he realizes I am working for Mr.Leela, and it's not hard to find out since Mr.Leela is also on this ship.

And now that Mr.Leela is on this ship, he is going to be breathing down on my neck to hurry the hell up and find something about Vihaan.

And this Vihaan...ugh can't he just cut the crap and give me the information I need to know?

That is why I need to find something dirty fast, before my father finds out and before Mr.Leela loses his patience and exposes my secret and before my time with Vihaan is up.

We walk through a narrow corridor, in the hearth of the golden walls there are thousands of silver doors built in that lead to the rooms.

It stretches downward leading into a red wall that puts a full stop to the length.

I checked the plates on the doors until I finally found my room number.

Sinking my key into the lock and twisting the stubborn lock, I talk to Amara "I actually called you here so you could answer a few questions for me."

She stands beside me overseeing me trying open the lock.

"I came here to tell you stuff"

"Like what?" I ask, exerting force on the key and the door finally clicks open

"To not go through with Mr.Leela's deal alone. I can help you Payal. At least let me do that"

"Oh my God" I say twisting the knob "I told you I like Vihaan and that is why I am dating him. Not because Mr.Leela told me to date him "

"Right" she drags as I glide the door open.

"Can you just tell me one thing Amara? What is this event for? Why are so many Rich, wealthy and fancy people here? I mean my father is here" I say walking in.

But she stays by the door, hands folded "Why? Your boyfriend won't tell you?"

I knit my brows flipping to her

"He is busy" I say.

"So busy that he left you behind ?" She cocks a brow.

I hold back my mouth because I don't know what to say.

"Amara" I step closer to her ,"Please tell me"

She rolls her eyes and drops her arms "It's basically a little gathering of the most successful people in the country."

"For what?"

Amara shrugs "I don't know. Just a lot of rich people were invited.Including my dad."

I process whatever she just told me.

"W-who organsided it"

"I don't know Payal. Just tell me what-"

I cut her off by swiveling around and walking back inside.She follows ,her footsteps echoing behind.

"Payal I can help, since we are on the same ship-"

I don't bother to admire the room and it's vast expanse and golden walls and king size bed.
