Yuanfen : Destined To Be Together

Chapter 8

11:47 am
Hauz Khas, South Delhi, India.

Months have passed after that incident. Nandini and her parents are slowly moving on.
Nandini just finished giving her interview through online meeting.

She was pretty nervous as always. Her hands were trembling, palms were sweating. But she somehow managed to attend the interview.

This interview meant a lot.

Even that she got called for an interview meant a lot itself. Google usually select only those candidates who have high qualification.

For Nandini, her achievements were medial but the list of her achievements was long. Probably because of that, she got selected and was called for an Interview.

She sighed when the interview finished. Drinking water from the glass on her bedside table, she texted her parents who were at her grandparent's place.

The interview is done.

Her dad called after getting the text. She talked with them for awhile before going on with her daily routine.

8:24 pm

Nandini was working on a project in her laptop when she received an email. Her heart rate quickened when she saw the id, it was from Google.

She entered the email, hoping for the best and preparing for the worst.

As her eyes darted between the passages, she finally saw the line,

It was a pleasure getting to know you and we think that you'd be a great fit for this role.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Nandini smiled as she reached the end of the  email.

She was selected for the position. And she was now a successful Software Engineer who is going to work for Google.

Her eyes glistened with tears of gratitude to her Kanha.

Thank you, Kanha. Thank you for everything.

She quickly replied to the email and called her parents and her friends. Everyone was happy, even more than happy for her.

And there she was, sitting silently at the oratory of her house, looking at her Kanha. Tears of joy and gratitude were running down her cheeks.

She felt cherished, she felt loved back by her Lord.

After a few days, almost everyone in their neighbourhood knew about Nandini's achievement. And yet, Iry and Maria were on cloud nine, hearing the news.

They took Nandini on shopping, at the amusement park and at a cafe.

But of course, the money was on her.

Nandini finally decided to do something for herself. She wanted to go on a vacation, but not in her own country.

She wanted to visit another country during her vacation.

- "You are not going alone anywhere, Nandini."
Her mom ended the discussion while she sulked to her dad. Her dad patted her head while chuckling,
- "okay okay. I will talk to your mom. But she's right. How about you take any of your friends with you?"

-"Pleeeeeaaaassssseee Iryyyyyyyyy. I'm begging you!"

Nandini whined to her best friend through the phone. Maria had already rejected her because she's busy with her office.
Iry sighed.

- "Fine. I will go with you. But if I get fired, you're going to get me another job."

Nandini jumped in excitement, grinning ear to ear.

- "Promise, Promise! Thank youuu. I love you!"

She practically kissed the phone due to excitement making Iry chuckle.

- "I hate you too. We'll discuss about it later then? Bye for now."

The next week went by a blink as Nandini and Iry became busy with the preparations for their tour.

To South Korea.

Being an ARMY, Nandini couldn’t suppress the urge to visit S.K just for once anymore.

Nandini packed her luggage two days before their departure. She kept checking it again and again thinking she might miss something.

When that grand day of their departure to South Korea came, Iry found herself travelling with a 5-year-old.

Nandini was chirping like a bird all the way to the airport and even inside when they waited by the gate.

The journey to Seoul was exciting and thrilling for both of them.
Nandini had already started taking small clips of the journey, hoping to make a blog by them.

When the plane landed on the runway, both of them looked outside.

Finally, they were in Seoul.
