The morning air was cool and fresh as I stepped onto my balcony, taking a deep breath. Today was the day I had been waiting for-the start of our big trip. I woke up early, too excited to stay in bed, and even a little nervous about what was to come. After quickly freshening up, I spent some time picking out the perfect outfit.

I finally chose a light, pastel-colored dress that flowed softly with every step

I finally chose a light, pastel-colored dress that flowed softly with every step. It made me feel confident yet comfortable, and I hoped it would suit the day's exciting adventure.

Soon, I heard the sound of a car pulling up outside. It was my brother, Rahul Bhaiya, arriving to drop me off at the port. As always, he greeted me with a warm, protective smile. His sharp eyes quickly scanned me, making sure I looked fine. "You look beautiful today, Naina," he said, gently patting my head, as he always did when he was in a caring mood.

"Are you sure about this trip?" he added, his tone serious now. "If you feel even the slightest bit uncomfortable, just call me, and I'll be there to pick you up."

I gave him a reassuring smile, trying to ease his worries. "Don't worry, Bhaiya. I'll be okay. Preeti will be with me the whole time, so you don't have to stress."

On the way to the port, Bhaiya talked about his college trips, sharing funny memories to make me feel less nervous. His stories helped distract me, and soon, I found myself laughing and feeling more excited about the day ahead. But as we got closer to the Mumbai port, my heart began to beat faster.
