CHAPTER 1
AUTHOR'S POV
The roads shimmered in the heat of the sun. The sunlit skyscrapers pierced the hot, blue sky.
Swathi, fluttered opened her eyes and looked around her room.
Pushing the blue curtains ,Swathi got down the bed.
She walked to the windows, and stood in front of the bright sun.
Her lips stretched a little.
Rubbing her hands together, she walked into the washroom to do her morning chores.
Getting ready in a pink top with white patiyala ,she matched her look with pink jumkas leaving her hairs free to dance in the air

She walked out from her room, and went inside Dhruva's room
"Dhruva! hey get up ,it's already 8"swathi told But Dhruva was too lost in his dream world to even feel her constant shakes
"if you sleep like this here, then who will drop PRIYA in her college? "Swathi asked and Dhruva sat up scratching his head
"I hope! I am not too late "Dhruva asked her blinking his sleepy eyes
"Nope you are not, but if you keep talking then you will be late "Swathi told and Dhrva got down the bed and walked towards the washroom.
Dhrva is like a brotherly figure to Swathi, and Swathi is like a sisterly figure to Dhrva.
Dhrva is trying hard to win priya's heart
Priya is actually his junior in college and now sir is trying to win her heart by doing anything possible!
Smiling, Swathi next went to Rahul who was sleeping in the couch
"sir, wake up soon "Swathi told
"two minutes Swathi "Rahul told changeing his position
"you and your two minutes fantasy
Get up soon "Swathi told
Rahul is the youngest among the all, he is kind of Swathi's favorite
She then went to the girls room
"darlings get up "Swathi told but then there was no response
"KEERTHIKA! Siddharth is waiting for you "Swathi lied and keerthika changed her position.
"ask him to go away "she told in a sleepy voice
The way his name was kept on hearing by her even when she is asleep made her irritated.
"God damn it, for God sake
He is your fiance girl "Karunya who just came out from the washroom told
"I don't even want a husband who will wake me up this early
Marriage cancel, ask him to go away or to come back at 10 "keerthika told covering herself with the blanket.
Sighing, Swathi came out the room and Karunya went into the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee
Life would be so tough and rough if, these people were not Swathi's life
There are like pillars for her.
No matter what, how tire her day went, the following morning it will be she who wakes them up.
She felt happiness starting her day like this! She felt happy when she realized that they are people who would worry when she does not wake up! That was something Swathi 's motivation to wake up early
Preparing some hot coffee she took the tray out to the hall with the help of karunya and sat in the sofa waiting for the others to join .
Swathi, Dhrva, keerthika, Karunya and Rahul
Did there software engineering in Mysore and worked there for 2 years.
Now has situation demands ,they shifted to Banglore 6 months ago
Currently none of them are working, they are spending they life with the money they earned in Mysore.
It was kind of a break to them from there routine life.
They use to take break every 2 months
But last year the work was too much so they just thought to extend the break period.
Swathi, Dhruva, keerthika, Karunya are all Orphans .
But Rahul was not! He left his parents or moreover escaped from his parents and is finally in his place where he belongs to!
So for them family means there friends.
Siddharth is a business man who keerthika met a year ago and fell in love.
Keerthika and Siddharth are dating for a year now and in 2 weeks they are getting engaged.
Atlest that's what the world is believing
Karunya is different girl, she is bold, strong and talkative
She is single and not ready to mingle .
She just wanted to lead her life happily and peacefully
Soon everyone joined, which actually even includes keerthika.
Having the hot coffee the hand, taking a sip even now and then everyone looked at each other.
"are we just gone stare like this "Rahul asked
"Nope ,we are gone make decisions in life "Swathi told
"why don't we just skip this and order a pizza "Rahul suggested
"we can add a coke too "keerthika told
"fries too please "Karunya pleaded
"we are not gone skip this part today, no matter what now just concentrate "Dhrva told stareing at Rahul
"sometimes I feel like you both are the main villains in my life "Rahul told
To which Dhrva glared at him
"leave him Dhrva , now everyone listen it's been 6 months we are resting "Swathi told
"and now we need to start working"dhruva completed her sentence
"what the hell ,I thought we will spend this year in resting "Rahul told
"listen to her kiddo "Dhrva told leaning back to the leather sofa
"I am not kiddo, old man "Rahul told
"stop ,stop it right there
See guys, keerthika is gone get married ,even though it's a love marriage we need to save some money for her wedding right ?"Swathi told
And everyone looked at her saying her to continue
"in less than 2 weeks, it's her engagement and within a month or 2 she will be married
We need money ,we just can't let Siddharth take everything himself "Swathi told
"your are actually right "Karunya told
"And it's like i will actually forget all my skills if i just spend my time in home" karunya added
"we agree but now what should we do "Rahul asked
"guys, Siddharth is a business man and he can take care of all these..you guys don't worry "keerthika told ! A pinch of guilt over took her and the major part in her yelled in angry !
How do badly she wanted to kick Siddharth right now!
"it's not like that keerthu, we as a friends or family
Should have a part in your wedding "Dhruva told and keerthika nodded understandingly yet in confusion
"I will apply for interview in companies "Dhrva to and everyone nodded.
"okay, then as its the last day of the break
I will go out and do some shopping "Karunya told
"I will join you "keerthika told
"Fine then I will start sending mails to the companies today itself "dhrva told
"I will help you "Rahul told
Swathi smiled and walked into her room again, and closed the door.
Sitting near the window, the fresh air from the window brought back all the memories which she is trying hard to forget.
"I MISS YOU.....Bu..but I don't want you "she whispered looking at her ring
"and I know, you don't want me too"she added closing her eyes
Tears escaped her eyes, which she hurriedly wiped.
