The Trip

I had the last few days to live like a crazy teenager before my MBA starts and I had to leave my home, Pune, and stay in Mumbai for my further postgraduate studies and become an adult forever. We already graduated a few days ago so me and my college friends decided to go on one last short trip. Our university was in Pune so we all decided to go clubbing, remembering old memories, and breathing in the cold breeze of marine drive, in Mumbai because it was the only short trip that was feasible for all of us. 

We left on Friday evening around 6 pm, reached Mumbai by around 9 pm, and checked in at the hotel. We were around 12 and we got our rooms. We got freshened up by 10 pm and decided to go out for dinner because we all were hungry. We all got into comfy clothes and left. We had dinner, did a lot of gossip, and had so much heart-to-heart, we laughed so much that we seemed drunk without actually being drunk because, in the back of our minds, we all knew we were gonna our separate ways once we went back home. 

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight and we realized we should go back to our hotel so we did that and everyone slept like we hadn't slept in weeks.

We all woke up late around 1 pm so decided to spend some quality time together in the hotel only. We played games, made reels, and made hilarious videos I couldn't remember much but I captured everything in my camera. Later, in the evening we decided to go clubbing. As it was our last trip, we decided to spend some money by going to one of the best clubs in Mumbai.

I was cleaning the mess my friends made in my room and realized it was 9 pm. I decided to start getting ready so that I could annoy others and take some ugly videos of them to tease them. I went to my closet and picked a simple black ribbed body-fitted dress. I looked myself in the mirror and I was looking sexy. 

"This is not my style guys what should I do?", I asked my girl gang who were also getting ready in my room. They dared me not to wear something else cause they thought I was looking beautiful and sexy. We left the hotel around 10.30 pm and reached there in 20 minutes as the club was close by

The minute I stepped into the club I told myself to live every moment and to dance until I couldn't feel my feet anymore

The minute I stepped into the club I told myself to live every moment and to dance until I couldn't feel my feet anymore. We went inside and took a huge area so that we all could fit in. My friends ordered drinks but I don't drink alcohol so I ordered mocktails. Now of course you would think why am I not drinking? Isn't that why people go to clubs to get drunk? No guys! I went to the club to dance with my drunk friends cause my not-so-drunk friends to get tired very easily while dancing. Well not all of them but most of them and today I was not going to give them a chance to leave the dance floor at all! 

We threw all of our belongings next to where Sam was sitting. He injured his foot yesterday and he couldn't dance so decided to guard our belongings and our to-be-drunk friends. I unlocked my phone, clicked a picture of the club, and sent it to my family chat to let them know that I was safe and in the club. Until then, everyone had already gone to the dance floor. I looked at Sam with pity and asked, "Are you sure you'll be fine here?", he nodded with a smile. I waved him goodbye and started walking towards the dance floor.

As I was walking, my eyes met a handsome guy. He wore a linen shirt, and beige pants, had dark curly black hair, and was wearing a flashy diamond watch that screamed his wealth. He had a muscular body and he was so almost 6 feet I guess. Oh my god! he was like an angel.

"I wish I could marry someone like him but wait why would someone so handsome and rich like him ever fall in love with me? Shut up and GO dance you stupid girl", I murmured and looked away quickly because I didn't want him to think I was staring at him or I was interested even though I was. I ran into a girl as I was busy staring at that guy, her purse fell on the ground so I picked it up quickly and said sorry. 

What can I do I am a hopeless romantic! But I am also a girl who always tries not to get into trouble or grab any attention because I am just 5 feet and can't even throw a punch hard enough to hurt someone to protect myself if something happens. 

So, I kept my eyes down and walked away. The dancefloor was huge and was surrounded by the railing as it was a little heightened. All my guy friends had made an outer circle as a boundary and all my girl-friends were dancing in the middle so that they felt protected and safe. What can I say, My guy friends were gentlemen and I loved them! I went to the middle of the circle and started dancing.

I forgot everything after that and danced myself until I almost passed out but then we went back to our hotel around 4 am. I realized I lost my favorite rose gold ring with an evil eye when I was undressing and my heart skipped a beat. I knew my parents would kill me because I was the one who emotionally blackmailed them to get me one and it was EXPENSIVE and it was close to my heart." I am so dead", I exclaimed. 

It was Sunday today and we were supposed to leave for home today. I remembered that when I ran into that girl at the club, that's when it must have slipped out from my finger because it was slightly loose but there was nothing I could do so I cried for a while and then started packing as we were supposed to check out from hotel at 5 pm so that we all were home before dinner.
