No Lies Last Forever

Chapter 4: Fresher's Party

"Stop admiring yourself in the mirror Aditi. You are standing before it since forty minutes. We are getting late, and my driver is already waiting outside" says Vinnie irritated as she has come to my place to pick me up for the party.

She is coming with me tonight because she said that almost all her friends including some seniors, are in DIT and they are going for the party. Anyway it was mentioned in the invitation card that two people are allowed in one card so I agreed to take her with me. I was wondering before about what she would probably demand but simply she asked to join me for the party and I was like "Yes, why not!" I got a company.

"Yes Vinnie. I am done" I reply. I always take so long to get ready for such occasions. I am nervous also. So many questions are running in my mind. What other girls would be wearing? How will I initiate a conversation with them? I hope everything goes well and I dont mess up with anything.

And we finally get out of my house and sit in Vinnie's car. I bid goodbye to my family and the driver starts the car as we proceed. I am wearing a backless red evening gown and Vinnie is wearing a royal blue halter flared dress. She is looking gorgeous I must say and I am really in love with her dress. Mine is also very pretty but I am a bit uncomfortable in backless because I have never worn such type of revealing clothes before. Vinnie has straightened her hair and she has curled mine.

"Driver, you can drop us here only and then you can park the car" tells Vinnie to the driver as we halt before the clubhouse. We get out of the car and I hear the loud music coming out from the club. I see girls and boys entering inside and they are all finely dressed up. Boys are in formals and girls, in their best outfit possible. Everyone is looking amazing. I observe the clubhouse. It is so huge. It reads "Etlantis Clubhouse". Wow! What a prestigious name.

"Daksh owns such a huge clubhouse. No doubt he is son of one of top businessman in Dehradun" says a girl while entering inside. She was standing just beside me so I heard her.

We quickly get inside the clubhouse and I see bunch of people dancing on the floor in music beats that I have never heard. I am totally lost right now. I usually don't listen to music, nor do I watch movies. I know I am a boring personality! Vinnie see her friends dancing and goes there to join them.

"Aditiii! You look pretty" shouts Vaibhav from my right corner and all the people from his dancing group begin to stare me, Aarya and Simran too. Aarya gives me a mocking look and turns around and Simran doesn't bother reacting anything. I don't understand what these girls try to show?

"Thank you Vaibhav" I say loudly so that my voice reaches his ears.

I see Shikha dancing with some other people, maybe they would be her Designing batchmates.
"Hey Aditi. You are looking stunning" compliments Shikha as she see me looking at her and the group. "Thank you Shikha. You are looking no less" I too compliment her.

"Thank you. Why don't you join us? Lets dance" asks Shikha.

"I'll join you guys in a moment" I reply. Basically I don't want to join only. I don't even know her folks. I will feel awkward with them. So I just manage to take a seat in the corner of the dance floor with a glass of cold drink.

"Aditi you came to the party just to sit in the corner or what?" mocks Vinnie as she finds me sitting alone and all her friends start to laugh.

"Nope. I will join everyone after some time" I reply by rolling my eyes. She doesn't say anything but moves out from there.
