The Last Goodbye

Chapter 12

It was Wednesday and as well the day of orientation and Divya was very anxious. This was her first time organizing the whole thing and she only hoped that things went well. Though till yesterday everything was completely fine, with the fact that she and Madhav had successfully taken up the meeting instructed people all the hows and whats of the plan, had made all the last minute changes, and then when things were almost done and only the last minute things were left she had left all of it in the hands of Aman Rishi , Yuvraj and Madhav and had went back home quite late for her mother's liking.

As Divya walked up the stairs bunching up her long Anarkali kurta, hair that reached just below her shoulders open for the first time in a while, her face adored with just a bit of khol and a stroke of eyeliner, she smiled at the creatives members who worked on the touch ups. She first went off to the auditorium and was quite relieved to find all the chairs and the setup ready with Dev and Atharva working on the mic system, and Madhav nowhere to be found along with the curation team.

She walked up to Aman and patted his back, her attention on the few members of creatives who were sticking out articles on the ceiling while a few were covering the tube lights with red gelatin paper to give the room a spooky look.

"whooo, Divya you look fabulous... So what do you think, all set and done happy now?" Divya once again looked around and smiled at Aman, she knew he could look right into her and tell that she was nervous.

"Divya chill things will go completely all right." Rishi said as he walked out of nowhere scaring her bit, however She bit back the little scream that was about to come out of her mouth and said, "you guys sure nothing will happen?'

"Listen Divya we are the event admins here and you are the member, I am telling you that things will go right then they will. Now listen you go and look at the curation team they are training the hosts for today, Dev is as well there, till then I will go and get a puff once that is done I will be completely set to rock the floor."

"Aman Noo'' Divya yelled, as she took hold of his hand and hit his left shoulder. "how dare you say that you are going to smoke, we are about to start with our event dare you go and smoke... Rishi even you."

"Divya what did I said right now...we are the event admins things will happen our way not the way you say." Aman gave her a teasing smile while Divya glared at him as well as Rishi who was busy guffawing.

"Stop laughing, trust me Aman if you go and take even a single puff I won't go up there on the stage and it is you two who are going to do all the talking there...I won't even come for the event." With that said Divya walked out of the room mumbling to herself how stupid these two were and how unfair it was to her that she was landed up with 3 idiots 2 who couldn't see anything other than smoking and the other one...it would be her luck if he would show her his face.

An hour later they were surely late for the event to begin with, although things were done on their end but the volunteers for whom the whole event was organized weren't there yet, and then later on the principal was yet to arrive.

However, Madhav had very well begun the show,and which was later on taken over by Dev and one of their juniors. The moment Divya saw her speaking once again on the mic she did quick calculations and realized that it would be her who would be doing their introduction, and no matter what she couldn't have it.

She quickly took hold of Aman and Rishi and Yuvraj who stood beside her and said, "you guys are event Admins right, now do one thing, make sure that Dev does our introduction and Not that stupid Nidhi...I will not come up on the stage Aman, Rishi, if this girl introduces us."

The three of them looked at her incredulously while Aman weaved his fingers through his hair all the while muttering a few curses. "woman are you mad?" he snapped at her to which she smiled at him and went back and sat on the chair beside Atharva who was busy watching the show.
