Chapter 2

Ananya looked outside the window. It was sunny. The last sunny day in Pune. She freshened and had breakfast. Her mind was never to leave but now! No one is here for her. Everyone is gone. She closed her eyes.

A month before.

Ananya's first concert. Everyone was happy and the show went super cool. After the show, the guys where partying. Suddenly Ananya's phone chimmed.

Ananya gasped : OMG! It's so late.. I need to leave. Bye guys.

Everyone waves bye. Suddenly again her phone chimmed. It was a call.

Avni : Anu.. it's me Ananya.. Can you hear me?

Ananya : Yes..

Avni : Come home quickly!

Ananya rushed home. But when she reached there.. a crowd was gathered around. In between an Ambulance. Avni was crying. Ananya had the true taught but she gulped it down. All she could see was her parents dead body!

It was 10am. Train arrived on time. Ananya looked behind before stepping in. All her childhood.. memories.. friends.. Time to pass on. She gulped her tears and entered the train. She walked to her seat and opened the window. She kept her luggage aside and waited the train to move. Soon the train started the journey. Halfway.. she took out her mom's bag, which the officers handed her. She opened it and found a note in there. She straightened the note. It was from her mom's dairy entry.

"Dear Diary,

Today is my Anu's Birthday. I just can't believe she is 18 now. She is a big girl now. But there is something that I hid from her. She has to be there before it's too late. I don't know how to tell her. What about a Brownie? She loved it. But all I want is my honey to realise it soon and be with her love, who is waiting for her. Our job is done till her 18.. now all is blessing for them.."

The note ended. It made no sense. She wiped her tears and lifted it up to take a closer look. Suddenly a envelope slipped down from the note. It was an interview application from D Enterprises. It says : you are selected for the interview.

Probably her parents filled and sent her application before she could know. Even though she wasn't ready physically, her mind wanted the job. It was her parents dream. They are gone..with a word for her, and she is going to fulfill the word. She signed. A lot of bad things are happening at the same time. She closed her eyes and remembered what her Dad used to say : Bad things happen for a good reason. She smiled.

After hours, she reached Goa. She looked around to find someone familiar. But she couldn't find one. So she found an empty seat and decided to sit there. Suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder. It was Avni.

Avni : Welcome to Goa...

Ananya : Thank you very much..

They hugged.

Avni : Girl, where is your luggage.

Ananya : Don't worry it's a few..

Avni : Thank goodness. Finally Destiny brought you here..

Ananya : What..?

Avni : Nothing.. my car is waiting outside, mom is waiting you home.

Ananya : I am starving.

Avni : Food is starving to have you home.. let's go..

They laughed. Ananya followed Avni. This new atmosphere is calming her. The beach breeze and scent of the sand..it was pleasing her mind. On the way, Ananya spilled about the letter. She asked : I am recruited in Dev Enterprises.

Avni : So soon..

Ananya : You know the company?

Avni : Um..ya I have heard about it.

Avni smiled.
