I couldn't tell how I wanted to celebrate this unexpected accomplishment of mine. I know, tonight i'm going to my favourite place "Blue Tiger Bar." I know I went yesterday, but what can I do? At least this time I'm going to go on a positive note, not as a way to numb myself from all my emotions.

"MAAAAA GUESS WHAT?!" I ran towards Neela Maa the moment she walked through the front in the evening. "I HAVE A JOB!"

"Sach mein?! Avni I'm so proud of you baccha!!" She replied whilst hugging me tight, admiring the genuine smile on my face. I know she's happy seeing my smile.
Maa broke the hug and immediately rushed to the kitchen without saying anything. I heard her rustling things around then chopping things. I know exactly what she's making... POHA!

Each bite of Maa's poha is like magic- it's as though i'm eating one of those types of foods from cartoons that everyone has always wanted to try. After i finished, I went up to my room and got changed into a pair of white jeans, a black long sleeved top and heels and left the house to head to the club. What better way to celebrate?

The workers there knew me really well so I didn't need to say anything apart from "hi! my usual please."
"You look rather happy today Miss Ayesha, any occasion?" Deeya replied. Deeya was a good friend of mine, the only friend of mine actually. I end up having long conversations with her when I'm drunk and we got close over that.

"Yes actually... Dee I got accepted into AZ INDUSTRIES today." I replied as she placed my first drink next to me. I don't even know why I'm this happy about it if i'm honest, maybe it's because i have something i can say to someone that makes my life sound somewhat normal.
"Well done Avni! For that you deserve another one with an extra shot of alcohol on me." She said winking at me.

After a few drinks my body felt loose. I like it like this; not blackout drunk but not completely in your senses. Feeling as though i'm kind of detached from my conscious self and aren't in control is the feeling i love. I know Choti Avni would not be proud of this but what can I do?

I felt someone slump on the stool next to mine at the front of the bar. "Just a mocktail please!" He politely ordered. I turned to face him because i swore that i've heard his voice before... oh my god. HIM?! I started choking on my drink out of the initial shock. The whole point was to not draw his attention but of course I did the opposite.

"Ay are you good-" He started asking me but completely cut off his question. I felt a pair of curious eyes stare at me intently for a few seconds, scanning me like he's registering me or something.
"...Tum??" He said slightly confused.

So firstly this guy pushes me over and then I faint on him as a first impression, and now he's just acknowledged that i'm that same girl and i'm currently in a club, great.
