6 “Stop moving like a pendulum! ”

"This is bad, this is really bad!"

Vaidehi paced around her room back and forth nibbling her nails.

"Stop moving lika a pendulum! I'm gonna puke."Chided her best friend.

"Kavyyyy! What am i goning to do now? How will I make them understand? Will they let me go there on my own?"

"Take a breath first Vaidhu ! You are making me dizzy"

"But–but how do I make them understand?"

"First, will you please relax and tell me what actually happened? You just called me so suddenly at this time of time of no where! Tell me clearly now!" Kavya , pulled Vaidehi and made her sit in her bed.

Vaidehi pouted looking at her best-friend.

"You know right, that I gave interview few days ago? So, I got their mail today."

Flashback to few hours ago.

.

Vaidehi was sitting on her bed with her laptop, whilst munching a big chocolate bar.

She laughed watching few funny videos that was being played in her laptop screen.

"God! Can you stop being so loud?" Vansh, who was sitting on the floor, playing video game, said.

"Nop. Not happening."

Humming a tune to herself she scrolled through her laptop.

Suddenly, a certain mail caught her attention.

With shaky hand ,she opened the mail.

Slowly reading the first few lines,she smiled. But, reading the mail fully she let out a scream in her mind in happiness.

She got the job! She freaking got her first job! She though happily and did a happy dance in her mind.But soon her smiled changed into frown then nervousness.

Looking at Vansh, who was now munching popcorn and watching cricket match; she let out a huff.

Narrowing her eyes at him, she got up and dragged him out of her room and closed the door on his face, not before snatching his tub of popcorn.

Sighing , she on the edge of her bed and dangling her leg.

'Nop! How could they do this!? Her family won't agree to this. They won't let her go to NYC at all ,and that to by herself!' She thought.

'She was supposed to be happy, getting a job and being independent finally! But no! God, don't want to see her sitting peacefully!' She looked toward the celing as if complaining to God himself.

Throwing a nasty look toward her laptop,she got up and started pacing around whilst munching popcorn.

She can't let this offer go, but how to butter her family and make them agree to this.

LD Fashion, is a big name in fashion world. She was lucky enough to give an interview for their branch here in–India.

But now seeing the mail ,she knew she was damn lucky to get an offer to work for them , and to work in their head branch–New York.

'God! How to make her overprotective family understand that, this is a once is life time opportunity!' She paced around her room.

Finally finding no other way, she call her best-friend.

.

.

End of flashback.

"How to make them understand Kavy!How to make them understand that this is important for me!?" Vaidehi whined and looked toward Kavya.

"Try talking with Dadu(grandfather)first. Make him understand and also bribe him with two sweet laadu(sphere shape sweet). He will say yes within a second." Kavya made herself comfortable on bed and scrolled through her phone whilst munching popcorn.

Vaidehi glared and slowly snatched the tub of popcorn from Kavya's hand and threw it on her head , leaving Kavya off-guarded.

"What is wrong with you!?" Kavya looked at her bestfriend in disbelieve.

"This is what happens–when you don't solve your besties problem! And you really think my super overprotective family and my super, super, super overprotective grandfather will let me go out of the country on my own? Heck, they haven't let me go alone to another city and you think they will melt-just like snowman! And do you think my super,super,super overprotective grandfather will melt, just by bribing him some laadu?(sphere shape sweet)" Vaidehi fell on her bed with a thud and bought a pillow near her face and screamed in frustration.

"Vaidhu, try to talking with grandpa. It will help. Just let it out, and make him understand. If he says yes, then no one will be able to stop you."

Kavya said with a smile and patted Vaidehi arm.

"It's goin' to be all right. Don't think much just ,let him what you what it and why you want it. I know it will be hard for them , to just let you go out of the country, but try making them understand. Okay?" Kavya threw two chocolates on her face and smiled.

Vaidehi still pouted but caught the chocolates. Opening one slowly, she munched on it and stared to brew a plan– Mission NYC. But before starting the plan she need her two devil by her side.

Smirking evilly like a chipmuck she took a big bite of chocolate.

And her first prey will her very own dear brother–Vansh.

Slowly tiptoeing toward Vansh's room, Vaidehi looked around to check if anyone was watching her. Opening the door quietly , she rolled in like a ninja.

She smirked evilly , seeing Vansh busy talking with his girlfriend, unaware of the trouble he was about to face.Taking out her phone, she stood behind him with out making noise.

Almost after five minutes , she poked Vansh on his shoulder.

A very annoyed looking Vansh turned around but , cut the call abruptly seeing Vaidehi smiling at him– showing her thirty-two teeth.

Danger alert, he thought.

"What do you want?" Vansh raised his eyebrow and asked Vaidehi.

"Can't a sister just come and talk with her brother?" Vaidehi pouted.

"If it was Sanvi, I would have understood. But , it's you– The devil herself!" He narrowed his eyes and looked at Vaidehi in suspicion.

"Ok, if that what you think of me." Vaidehi looked down and played with her phone, pausing dramatically she look up with a smirk.

"I will just show this to everyone." She showed her phone and Vansh's face went white seeing it.

["Baby, what are you doing?" Vansh toyed with his collar and said on phone.

"What? Ok, fine. Ya , ya don't worry, I will buy you that red gown. Yup, I will come and bake a cake for your dog as well. "

"What! But, bab–"]

Vaidehi smirked and off the video.

"You want to see more?" Vansh tried to snatch the phone from Vaidehi's hands but, she quickly ran away.

"Delete this video ,Vaidhu!" Vansh ran after her to get the phone.

"I will if you help me with something."

"And what is that?"

"Meet me on our secret place in an hour."

"But promise me you will delete this video. Deal?"

"Deal!" Vaidehi said and shook hand with Vansh before humming her favourite tume and walking away.

Next target–Sanvi. And she smirked planning a perfect way to get help from her.

.

.

.

Entering Sanvi's room she closed it with a loud bang. Sanvi, who was applying face pack whilst listening to music, let out a shriek.

"What is wrong with you Vaidhu di*(elder sister)!? " Sanvi kept a hand near her heart and looked at Vaidehi in disbelieve.

"You don't want anyone to see you with rainbow hair, now? Do you? If not then come and meet me at our secret place. " Saying this, Vaidehi walked out not even bothering about Sanvi's reply.

.

.

.

A very confused and cluless looking Vansh and Sanvi sat inside the tree house–the secret spot.

Vaidehi looked at them and sighed.

"Guys, I–" She paused dramatically.

"I got selected for LD Fashions!" She squealed and threw her arm in air in excitement.

"Oh My God! Di, (elder sister) congratulation! "

"Yes , Vaidhu! Congratulation! You finally got a job! "

Sanvi and Vansh both got up and hugged Vaidehi.

"But guys the new is not over yet." Vaidehi broke the group hug and said nervously.

Looking at both of them nervously she said in a single breath,"TheySelectedMeToWorkForThereHeadBranch!"

Sanvi and Vansh both looked at each other in confusion.

"Stop your alien language and try to add space between your words." Vansh said sarcastically.

Vaidehi glared at Vansh.

"They offered me to work for there head brand." Taking a deep breath she slowly whispered the last part. "In New York."

"No!"

"Fucking way!"

"Stop cursing Vansh bhai*(elder brother) we have a kid with us." Vaidehi quickly closed Sanvi's ears and glared at Vansh.

"I am not a KID!" Sanvi whined.

"Stop, diverting the topic! Vaidhu, is it true?" Vansh question with a serious look.

Vaidehi looked down and nodded as answer.

"No one is going to allow you, you know that right?" Vansh ran a hand throw his hair. Over protective brother in him was out.

"That's why I need help from both of you. Pleasee, please, pleaseeee help me?" She looked at them with her special puppy dog face.

"But what we both can do?" Sanvi , who was quite until now , questioned.

" You both have to do nothing. Just support me when I break this new. Please. You both know who big opportunity this is. So, please help me. " Vaidehi looked at both of them , she eyes shining in unshed tears.

"Are you really sure you want to do this, Vaidhu?" Vansh asked one last time.

"Yes, Bhai.* (brother) " She whispered.

"Fine then. We both will support you." Vansh came forward and hugged Vaidehi, taking her surprised.

She squealed and hugged them both more tightly.

"Stop squeezing us to death!" Sanvi choked between the brother sister duo.

Breaking the hug Sanvi asked, "So, what your plan?"

"We are up for a mission–Mission NYC!" Vaidehi looked at both of them in determination.
