Saanvi's POV:

Do you guys know what I hate the most in this entire world? Only two people could acquired this place, my family and my boss.

So currently the one which is sucking the life out of me is my family. I am sitting in my living room, on a video call with my family.

They are back from their 10 days trip from Rajasthan, and are currently blabbering about their "wonderful" visit.

It's been two weeks of me working with THE VERMA'S. Another six weeks to go. Urgh.

It's not that bad, the project is good, the team and manager is good. Just the boss is the worst anyone could ask for. Actually he is good with everyone but me.

Why god why? Why did I meet him at the park that day? Why did I have to be so witty? Not that I regret!

"Saanvi you should have come, you missed your favorite food" Arjun bhai said and I just smiled.

"Next time for sure bhai"

"You said the same the last time Saanvi" Amika said,

Before I could reply the door of my room opened with a thud making me scream. No one is at home, so it was an obvious reaction. "Sanuuuuuuuuuuu"

I gave a bored look at an over energetic Tara, "Hawwwwww how can you ignore your bestie baby girl" she hugged me with a force blocking any oxygen left.

On the camera my family looked at us with a weird look, and I smiled sheepishly "I will call you guys later, you get off meee" I cut the call.

"What are you doing here"

"Girl it's Saturday night. So we are going clubbing" I cried internally.

"Babe the lat time we went there remember what happened right? My boss decided make my life hell"

She stifled a laugh "Not my problem, you didn't look around before speaking"

"Oh please. Mujhe kya sapna ane wala tha ki vo waha honge"

"Arey yrr please, let's go na. See Mayank and Yash are also having fun, only we are sulking here"

"You had fun for the whole two week at the function. Aren't you tired"

"Urgh you are such a bore Saanu" she slumped on the bed, I followed.

"How was the function?"

"It was good and tiring. We cousins used to stay up late and sneak takeaway food" she laughed "It was so fun. Later on our parents also joined. It was a great time. It ended very quickly"

Will I ever have such a time with my family? I don't envy her, but just this mind and heart are a bitch.

"Leave that, tell me how's the hottie bossie"

"Urgh don't ask. Half the time he makes me want to murder him. The other day I was relaxing at the terrace, but he had to ruin that as well" i grimaced at the memory.

"Aww my poor baby" she laughed and I also joined.

"Seriously I can't believe Nikhil and Saurabh sir are real brothers. They are poles apart" I sighed "I wish Saurabh sir was my boss"

"Technically he is your boss. You just don't work under his supervision" she stated matter of fact.

"Hmm leave it. What would you like to have?"

"Let's go out na please Saanuuuuuu" she pouted "We will go to The Cult this time. I'm sure that rich brat won't be there"

I made a crying face and then laughed "Okay fine. But if anything goes wrong this time, you will take the credit"

"I will make sure nothing goes wrong"

I nodded and we both got ready into my dresses. We both wore spaghetti strap mini dress. I wore a blue one and Tara wore a light pink one.

We both did little makeup and left for the club.

We showed our ID's and got our bands and entered. The club reeked of alcohol, sweat and heat.

Everyone is drinking and dancing like it's the last day of their life.

We went to the bar and ordered our drinks. The last time I couldn't drink  but this time I am going to. Moreover I got many reasons to drink my ass off.

It's what I guess my 5-6 drink of the night? But do I care? Nahhhh.

"You know I think we should have gone with the two idiots" Tara said, her voice intoxicated.

"Right. Those monkeys are having so much fu-fu-fun" why does this word sound so difficult?

"One more tequila pleadeee" she said to the waiter and he shook his head before sliding the glasses

I put my head on the table and pouted. My mind a whirlwind of situations.

"I wish people loved me" I don't know why I said it

"Oh sweetie, I love you so much" Tara ruffled my hair

"Not everyone does. He didn't love me enough to stick around" for the first time in years, I wanted to cry but I knew better.

"He was a dickhead. You deserve soooooooooooi much better" she said in a tone making me laugh

"Urgh my head hurts" her phone went off.

"Hmm I will come" she turned to me "I need to go, bhai is outside to pick me up. I will drop you"

"No I will stick around then leave"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. I will be safe"

She nodded and left, her steps tipsy.  Suddenly I wanted to use the washroom.

On my way I saw some people enjoying their life, some celebrating and some making out.

A sudden wave of longing filled me. I don't know why but I feel lonely,  abandoned and left out.

I used the washroom but then later I left the club after clearing the payment.

I didn't feel like going home already so I sat near a bench.

I looked nothing at particular. I don't know what I am doing here. I don't even know if it's safe to be here.

I looked at the time and it's 1 at midnight. How long have I been sitting here.

I tried to book a cab but none of the driver accepted my booking.

I hear some footsteps, I looked sideways to see 2 3 boys coming in my direction with smug faces.

I gulped. I guess it really wasn't a good idea to be here. I got up as casually as I could and walked in the other direction.

I looked around for someone but no one is here. No trace of any car. If I go further maybe I will find police.

The footsteps grew louder and I ran. My steps are as fast as it could, but one can't ignore the fact that I am drunk.

I ran a little further but then I a beam of strong headlight hit my eyes. Maybe I lost my eyesight.
