Aditi's POV

"Wake up! Wake up! Finally today's the day! Aditi wake up!" I hear Aliya yell as she pushes and tries her best to wake me up.

"10 minutes more please!" I groan as I roll over to my side.

"Fine! But just ten more minutes and if you're not up, I won't mind pushing you off the bed."

Aliya opens the windows before leaving. Fresh air gushes into the room and I roll on back and stare at the ceiling. Taking a deep breath in, I start contemplating about today.

Correction. Over thinking.

"Today's the day." I murmur to myself as I start feeling extremely nervous and anxious. An annoying habit of mine, where I over think situation to such an extent, that it starts giving me a really bad stomach ache.

What if we don't get through? What if I forget the steps? The most negative thought start clouding up my mind.

Suddenly, I feel my bed dip and I jerk up to see Ayaan jump up and down on my bed.

"Urgh! Get off my bed!" I yell in annoyance.

"Nope. Not. Till. You. Wake. Up." Ayaan teases as he bounces on the bed.

"I am up! Can't you see?" I get off the bed.

"Now you are." says Ayaan emphasizing on the word 'now'.

"Get out. I need to freshen up." I say as I make my way towards the bathroom.

"Be quick. Dad's already ready and will leave for work in a few minutes. He wants to see you and wish you luck." Ayaan says as he closes the door and walks out.

After ten minutes, I walk down the stairs of my family villa and go towards the kitchen. My dad, Arun Sharma, is a famous and well known business man. Half of the time, he is out of India traveling around the world, meeting new people and carrying out his business. Dad has also been like a mother to us. His wife, our mother, Angelina, left us, when Ayaan was just two. She had fallen in love with someone else and we never saw her ever again. And every time we try to bring up the subject, Dad always changes the topic immediately. So, we don't know much about her. I have even forgotten what she looks like.

As I enter the kitchen, I go straight to Dad and plant a kiss on his cheek.

"Morning Pops." I greet him with a smile.

"Morning dear! Ready to rock out today?" he says with a smile on his face.

"Nope." I sigh while taking a seat between Ayaan and Aditya. The kitchen is filled with lovely and sweet smell of French toast. Aliya goes around the table and serves the fresh and hot dish. She then takes a seat between Ayaan and her dad, who is sitting next to Aditya.

"I couldn't sleep the whole night. Just couldn't stop thinking about today." Aliya says while taking a bite of her toast, anxiety clear in her voice.

"We'll be amazing. Don't worry." Aditya says with a smile on his face. Out of the four of us, Aditya has always been someone who is always positive, no matter what the situation. He always maintains this cool and calm personality. Honestly, I've never seen him panic or mess up. Whereas on the other hand, Aliya and I are the ones who always panic before the need arises. We'll be stressing over non-existing crisis. Ayaan is neither here nor there. He is cool and calm at times and sometimes you'll find him screaming his head off over a burnt toast.

"It'll be amazing if one of you gets injured while dancing or forgets the steps. Oh! Oh! Just imagine the judges throwing you out because you sucked that bad." Ayaan teases his brother and sisters.

"Have I ever mentioned of how much I hate you?" I glare at Ayaan who just sticks out his tongue.

"Now, now. Don't start again. What time are you supposed to reach there anyways?" asks Dad.

"At 3 O'clock this afternoon. What time is it now? We could have one last practice before the auditions." Aliya says.

"Hmm... fine. I'll message the others. Let's meet up at the studio in one hour. Okay?" says Aditya.

"Okay done." we all agree.

"Okay then, I'll have to leave now. I've got a meeting in two hours. Have to make preparations. All the best and remember to let it all flow." he plants a kiss on my forehead and moves around the table to plant a kiss on Aliya's forehead as well. He gives Aditya and Ayaan's shoulder a squeeze and exits the kitchen to leave for work.
