Well, there is this tiny detail that I have forgot to mention here is that the characters in this book are still in 2011. Why? Well you will know about that soon ;)

Amber's P. O. V

Still Day one :P

"Hey," someone whispers into my ears as soon as I hear my brother walk away from me, to introduce himself to some girl finds interesting.

Way to be responsible for your little sister.

"Hey, who is this? I can't really recognize the voices just yet," I say and I feel a pair of eyes on me, staring at me. It's not only now, it's been happening all this time. The strange thing is that this stare is making me feel good.

There is something about this stare. It's that stare that makes you feel special. Normally, when people stare at you, it's creepy, judgemental, eye-raping or plain simple weird but there is something about this stare that makes me want to be stared at. It suddenly makes me conscious of how I am looking.

Really Amber? You're feeling like someone is staring at you? And You're now classifying those stares?

You're sixth sense has gone bonkers and you need coffee.

"It's Vihaan," he says and I nod.

"You forgot to book a hotel room Ayana!" a girl, who I think is Krisanne, screams at someone before I hear chuckles.

"Why are you laughing? Someone is getting yelled at..." I say.

"Don't worry about it. It's Krisanne and Ayana. Krisanne may just kill Ayana out of anger and then rush her to the hospital to save her life. They are typical best friends. Besides, you should see Krisanne's face right now, it's red. I can almost imagine the fumes coming out of her ears," he says and I smile.

"Pretty wild imagination you have there. How does she look like, like normally when she is not fuming?" I ask and I hear a new voice talking, telling someone to pick us up.

"Everybody has a wild imagination Amber, it's just that I use it more. As far as Krisanne concerned, I'm not going to tell you. You can create your own image of her, that is much more fun," he says and I giggle at his stupid talk.

Just then Ayana speaks up again and the basic introduction happens. Then she informs us about our staying setting and Vihaan and Krisanne will be staying with us too. Ethan passes a remark and I tune out of their conversation.

"So she is pretty rich," I say and Vihaan responds with a 'yup' before continuing.

"Her parents were. The house we are going to right now was where her parents lived," he says and I ask him a personal question before I can control myself.

"Where are her parents now? Why doesn't she live there?" I ask and there is this eerie silence before he continues.

"They died and why she can't live there is another story altogether which we will save for a depressing day. Today is a happy day so we should stay happy, let's not talk sappy because it's too crappy, please don't tell my daddy," he sings and I laugh out loud.

"That didn't make sense at all and daddy didn't rhyme," I say and he laughs too.

"It was on the spot, cut me some slack," he defends himself.

Just then Ayana announces that I'll be going in the car and she, along with Vihaan will be coming on the bike. Again, before I can stop myself I ask another stupid question.

What's with my self control today? Why would I want Vihaan to come with us?

Maybe because it's after a long time that someone spoke to me as a friend. It's been quite some time since I enjoyed a good friendly chat.

Don't get to attached, that will make situations worse in the future.

"Common Amber, let's go," a voice which I recognise as Krisanne's approaches me and holds my hand. She then guides me to the car and I am made to sit in the center. I can smell the minty perfume of Rey on my right and I guess Krisanne gets in and sits on the left. I feel better in the car and I think it's because of the air conditioner. It is pretty hot outside.

"Sitting in this car is weird," Ethan remarks and I wonder why he said that.

"Yeah, I understand. You guys have your driver's seat on the left. It's okay, you will get used to it," Krisanne says and it becomes silent in the car till my brother decides to speak up.

"So you're on the academic team?" he asks Krisanne.

"Yeah, well I was," she says.

"What do you mean by was?" Ethan asked her. I guess he is sitting ahead beside the driver.

"When we got the news that you guys will be coming, the teams were formed already. So to accommodate you guys, one person had to step down from each team, so from the academic team, I stepped down," she explained and I wonder why she would do something like this.

"Thank you, but why did you step down?" Rey asks the question on my mind.

"Well, because I don't need the competition certificate that much and as far as the performance is concerned, we have ten days, I can teach you all the you need to know and you'll do fine, I guess," she explains and Ethan decides to ask the other important question on my mind.

"Who stepped down from the swimming team?" he asks and, again, there is silence. I guess they would all be looking at each other awkwardly during such a silence, like someone just said the wrong thing.

"Well, that's up to Ayana. She's the one who will be deciding. Mostly, she will be the one stepping down but she's not just going to let you be on the team so easily," she says and Ethan scoffs.

"I know she won't. She already hates my guts," he says and Krisanne sighs audibly.

"No Ethan, not because of that. Firstly, Ayana never drags personal equations in such matters. She wouldn't let you in easily even if you would have been her best friend. She's wants her team to win this because she knows how important it is for the other members. So she will make sure you're capable. Secondly, she's Ayana, when it comes to her, nothing comes easily, so you have to be prepared," she says and that's when I hear someone screaming her name distantly.

"Did you guys-" she asks and I cut her off.

"Yeah, someone is calling you." I say.

I feel her turn in her seat before she gasps.

"What the hell is wrong with her!" Krisanne half yells and I hear my brother chuckling.

"Why, what's wrong? Is it illegal?" my brother asks and I hear Krisanne taking deep breaths.

"She is not supposed to be riding the bike because she doesn't have a licence. She's not wearing a helmet and she has clearly broken the speed limit. In short, she's going to go to jail if she gets caught," Krisanne rambles and I try to control my laughter.

At one time ,Krisanne is telling us how responsible and serious Ayana is, telling us all the deep stuff about her and the next moment she is tensed about Ayana breaking the law. I don't think I have ever met someone who is more crazier.

"Vihaan shouldn't have given her the bike," she mumbles before screaming," What on earth are you trying to say Ayana, I can't freaking hear you."

"Do...guys...tweet," I hear some parts of a distant voice.

"I think she is asking you if you want to tweet about something," I say while I still hear someone yelling from outside.

"I don't use Twitter. Anyway, I signed Vihaan to call me," she says and as soon as she finishes her sentence, her phone starts blaring.

"What the hell is wrong with the both of you!" she yells and I hear someone chuckling and talking on the other end. Rey is just giggling every now and then but Ethan is surprisingly quiet this whole time.

"Do you guys want something to eat?" Krisanne asks and all the three of us said 'coffee' together.

"You heard them, bye," she says and hangs up, before the rest of us fall silent for the rest of the car ride.

I sit back and give a thought to what Vihaan told me, letting my imagination run wild.
