WARNING:- NOT PROOFREAD
"Goa-Goa-Goa" The Bus driver started screaming, being an Alarm clock for the people on the Bus that morning.
Meera was the first one to wake up, not because of the screams. But because of the sun rays falling on her sleeping self, which eventually woke her up.
Yawning and rubbing her eyes, She glanced outside the window only to see the bus is not moving and is stopped at the place which is like a depot.
Confused Meera glanced around to come across people are going out of the bus, and that's when her ears caught the screams, of Goa.
Realizing that they reached their destination, she looked around to see no one of them was wide awake as she was and shrugged her right shoulder in the meanwhile to wake Sahitya up, who's sleeping like a sloth bear on her shoulder which is now paining.
"Ahh..." Sahitya groaned in pain as someone pinched the bridge of her nose. Lifting her eyes to have a look at the intruder, she was about to curse the person but stopped when she witnessed the frown on Meera's face.
"Meera?" Sahitya woke up from her sleep fully now, rubbing her nose to soothe her pain. "What the hell?" She screamed as she realized its Meera who made her wake up from her peaceful sleep.
"Don't yell! We've reached!" She said, gesturing her to look outside the window.
"Ohh!" Sahitya's lips formed a perfect 'o' as she looked at the people climbing off the Bus.
"Let's wake them up! Or else we'll reach Hyderabad, again!" Meera said, shaking her head, prompting Sahitya to give her wat to reach them.
"Riya, Aadya, wake up! We've reached!" Meera shouted at them, shaking them by their arms.
"Yeah! Meera let them sleep. We'll go!" Nanda stood from her seat out of the blue which startled Meera. Stretching out her arms, she pulled her backpack on her shoulders, yawning. By the time Sahitya pulled out their bags, Riya and Aadya woke up from their slumber.
Coming out of the bus, Nanda checked the time which showed 6:12 AM.
"It's just 6 and her I thought its already 7:30. Goa sunrises are a different man." She said while Riya nodded her head, while drowned in her phone.
Rubbing her palms on her arms, Aadya stood, shivering slightly as the winter fig hit their faces.
"What are we waiting for?" Meera asked.
"For the Cab, which will pick us up!" Nanda said, between her yawn.
"Again in one cab?" Sahitya asked while Riya nodded her head in no.
"I've booked two cabs. Cause, no cab driver will agree for all five of us fit in the same cab. Instead, he'll go back, giving back our money!" Riya said chuckling which made all of the giggles.

"How much time's it gonna take?" Nanda asked while Riya showed her two fingers, which means 2 minutes, adjusting her bag on her shoulder.
"He's calling! You talk!" Riya handed her buzzing phone to Nanda, who is the only one in their Gang, knows Hindi.
"Hello! Haa, Bhaiya! Ji Hum Yahi pe Khade hai! Haa Hum hi hai who paanch!" As Nanda has cut the call, a cab came towards them, honking at them.
He nodded her head at Nanda who in return acknowledged it with another Nod.
"Madam, Paanch log aayenge kya?" He asked confused, glancing at five of them.
"Nahi! Yeh teen aapke saath aayenge aur hum aapke peeche dusra cab mein aayenge!" Nanda explained with a smile, after pointing at Meera, Sahitya, and Aadya, while he nodded his head.
Meera and Sahitya are standing far from them, disinterested. Riya is trying to understand what they were talking about. And, Aadya just stood there, typing furiously on her phone.
"He loaded your luggage in the cab. Go! And, Riya had shared the details of the Hotel. Check it once. And, Aadya!" Nanda said it one breath and glanced at Aadya who's still in her mobile land.
"Aadya!" Riya shook her by arm, who snapped her head at them in a blink of an eye.
"Where are you lost? Anyways, you know Hindi right! After telling the details to him, ask him if he has any doubts about it, if he had, explain it! Okay?" Nanda said, with a finality filled tone while Aadya had no other option other than complying with her sister who can not take no as an answer.
Before their Cab leaves, another cab came for Riya and Nanda who hopped inside in a matter of seconds and followed the cab, their friends are in.
"What's that hotel name?" Nanda asked Riya.
"DoubleTree by Hilton! I've booked two rooms as only four people are allowed in one room. So, that we can have no problem." Riya said while Nanda nodded her head in acknowledgment.
"How much for five nights?" Nanda asked Riya, who's so indulged in her Mobile.
"Riya?" Nanda called her not getting any sort of reply from her while Riya Hmm-ed still on the phone.
"What are you doing, yaar?" Nanda whined, patting on Riya's arm.
"I'm messaging my Sister, that we've reached!" Riya said, tapping on the send icon.
"Now tell me!" She said, turning her full attention to Nanda.
"I asked how..." "Hey, we've reached the hotel!" Riya said, glancing outside, cutting Nanda across, who sighed.

"Sleep for an hour! We'll have breakfast and will step out for the sightseeing. And, I'm gonna rent A Bike, and two Activa's for us." Nanda informed as all of them reached their rooms.
"You ride a Bike?" Meera widened her eyes at Nanda who stood smiling, reminiscing her days when she's learning how to ride a bike.
"Yeah, I do! And, Riya knows Activa, so do you, right!" Nanda asked, pointing towards Sahitya who nodded her head, tucking her hair strands behind her ear.
"Perfect! Let's go!" Nanda and Riya left for their room and Aadya, Meera and Sahitya went to another room. They all decided beforehand that the 'Aunties' would be staying in one room and the singles in another, which they followed right away.

"I told you, people, to get ready fast!" Nanda shouted at Aadya and Meera who are fighting to get ready first standing in front of the large mirror in their hotel room. While these two are eating scolding from this strict teacher, Sahitya is still in the bathroom, taking her own time to apply the shower gel.
Riya couldn't help but laugh at the poor souls who slept more than an hour as Nanda told and slept till both of them come and wake them up.
Now, Nanda is Hungry and they were late which is the reason for this scolding session.
"Nandu, relax!" Riya said, patting her arm while Nanda let out a breath.
"They'll take more than the time we slept, bathed, and got ready, just to get ready!" She taunted while Meera and Aadya looked at each other.
"We both cant go and take our vehicles as we need three! Won't she come out today?" She yelled, looking at the bathroom and that's when the door made a creaking sound, indicating to them that the person in the bathroom is finally made time to let the outside people have a look at their divine face.
"Hi!" Sahitya grinned sheepishly at Nanda who's fuming. She's clad in a white shirt and blue denim with her hair rolled in a bun.
"You're looking exactly like that... who's that?" Riya spoke in the silence and her words made them confused and look at her intensely.
Trying to find the right word she's thinking of, Riya scratched her temple.
"Narad muni!" Nanda completed with a Tsk while all of them burst into a peal of laughter.
Having breakfast at the hotel, they left to fetch the Bikes for their sightseeing, in a cab.
"Y'all had your backpacks with you, right?" Nanda asked while all of them nodded while looking at one another.
"Yeah! But, why?" Aadya asked.
"Take it!" Nanda handed each of them a small box which has Goggles in each of them.
"When did you..." Nanda cut Meera across.
"It doesn't matter. It's for you only. You liked it?" She asked looking at Sahitya and Meera who nodded their heads vigorously smiling at her.
"It matches everyone's outfit, Nandu!" Riya said wearing it and looking at herself in the rearview Mirror of the Activa they've rented for.
"Yeah, I know!" Nanda replied raising her imaginary collars, who is clad in denim jeans, a white floral t-shirt, and a pair of white Sneakers.
"Show off!" Aadya scoffed, correcting her collar of the checkered shirt, tucked in the black ripped denim.
"Of course, yes!" Nanda replied, giggling, resulting in Meera and Sahitya laugh. Riya who wore a tank top underneath a checkered shirt tied the dips of her shirt, before hopping on the scooter.
"Let's go!" Meera said, adjusting her t-shirt, hopping behind Sahitya, who's wearing her helmet.
"Follow me, as y'all don't know the route!" Nanda said, raising the accelerator of her Royal Enfield.
"As if you've come to Goa for the 100th time!" Aadya scoffed, shaking her head, while Nanda made a pot, at which Riya laughed.
"At least I knew the route cause of the Google maps. Ive already checked it in videos. Let's go!" She said, placing her backpack tightly around her waist.
