Post 1. I'll CC it later.
Ramya called up her friend, Java to inform her about the tickets she had received to the shows she adored the most, Qubool Hai and Beintehaa. "Stop yelling girl! I'm sure if you turn back you'll see the poor kitten hitting her head on the wall!"
"That's beside the point Javz. The main thing is I get to attend the shooting of both the shows! CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?"
"You're shouting again, Ramya."
"Why am I even telling you this if all you're interested in is my shouting. Huh!" she cut the phone.
*Thirty seconds later*
"Hey! The date of the shows is the same! Oh, what will I do! It's such a great honour, but the date! Oh, why couldn't the shows be shot on different days?" she groaned.
"At least the Boss doesn't want you in office." consoled Java.
"But to which one am I suppose to go?"
"There's a whole week for you to sit and think."
*A week later*
Though still undecided on which programme to attend, Ramya had put on her best dress, and was tidying her hair when her phone rang. It was her boss. She warily picked up the phone. To her horror, her boss assigned her an important work which required her to be in office on that day. She raked her brains to get an idea to escape while continuing the pleasantries on the phone. Suddenly,
Ramya: *cough* *cough*
Boss: What happened to you?
Ramya: Umm...nothing sir, just this cold, and fever.
Boss: I hope it isn't too bad.
Ramya: No Sir, not at all. The temperature's just about a hundred and four degrees. I feel much drowsy and my head's spinning like I'd fall over any moment. Apart from these trifles, I'm alright. *cough* *cough*
Boss: Ah, umm, I see. I don't think you'll be required in office today. You must get some rest. Understood?
Ramya started a kind of a war dance in her room. She had never imagined that it would so easy to dodge the Boss. Even as she rejoiced, she felt the nagging perplexity crop its way up again. To which show was she to go? Qubool Hai or Beintehaa? AsYa or ZaYa?
Throwing her phone on the couch she sat down to think. After a couple of minutes of tedious contemplation, she decided to stay back at home and switched on the TV to catch the repeat telecast of Beintehaa.
*ding dong*
Ramya opened the door. There stood Asad, Zoya, Aaliya and Zain. "Happy birthday, Ramya!" they chorused. Behind them stood the whole CC team holding up an enormous cake.
Before she could say anything, someone shot foam, and the group barged into her room. Overwhelmed by their enthusiasm she stepped back as she watched Abhi switch on her music system and go grooving back into the crowd. Then she felt Mally pushing her into the crowd over to the table what they'd kept the cake.
After cutting the cake they partied hard with high beats and cool food.
*ding dong*
Ramya made her way through the crowd and opened the door, shaking her head as she hummed yeh party abhi baaki hai.
There stood her boss, fuming with wrath.
We hope you enjoyed the AsYa and ZaYa surprise. Who knows maybe there's more to the end...😉
We hope that all your dreams and wishes come true. And, may your future be as bright as you. 😃
Happy birthday, Ramya!
Here's a special something from our side.
