Daniel arranged for the drug and was eager for Alric as he had set up a price way far higher than usual and to make use of his opportunity to earn more money. As planned, the head detective informed to local and international police about the whereabouts and discussion that was about to take place and the location. They secretly discussed few more things with Interpol head so that they had back up plans if he tried to escape and that if their primary plan fails. The police were disguised as street dancers, few were as couples and they were snogging their girl friends.. A perfect set up as in normal days. They all had their short hand guns. The head detective, disguised as bar tender sat near the music player.. to execute their plan successfully. In the meantime, Alric disguised himself to show off as is he is the young CEO of the multi-billionaire company. He made sure he had girls flocking around him, to create a hot, bad, rich guy image. So, he hired for 4 girls. He made sure all these 5 girls wore dresses very sexily, revealing their body a little too much.

Hirdh was leaving her office, wearing a blue denim and a white tight top with tiny pink flowers on it and a pink sandal. She left her hair wavy, reaching the mid of her back and her hands clutching a blue file. When she was about to cross an empty road, a black sleek limousine turned around a sharp corner gracefully at around 80 miles/hr. She stopped midway and her heart started racing. But the car didn't stop. Not even for apologizing. She just stared at it or few seconds and muttered an 'idiot' before resuming her walking. She was heading towards her home. She looked at her watch. It was already 11:30pm. She sighed as she was late to her home and she gotta wake up early tomo as she had morning duty the next day. When she was about to enter her portion of the home, where 5 girls lived, her phone began ringing make her jump instantly. She groaned and answered the call.

"Hi Hirdh!!!" she heard her friends shouting her name. A small smile formed on her lips, though she was damn tired.

" Hey Dharshi! Hey Sriya! How the hell are you two?"

" we are fine idiot. Ok. Say me where you arw right now?" Sriya asked.

" huh! I just now entered my room. Today was a long day. Whats up?" she could visualize the glint and excitement in their voices. She heard Dharshi humming softly throughout the call. She found that they were up to something for sure.

"um! Ok... we want you to come down to the 'Fun Spot' right now.", Dharshi hushed.

"Yeah yeah! right now." , Sriya piped in.

"But I have morning duty tomorrow. Gotta wake up early tomorrow. Sorry dears. I cannot come." Hirdh sighed.

"Please!" Sriya asked .

"um!! Sorry. Will meet on this weekend for sure ok?" , Hirdh asked politely.

"huh its ok. See you later. Love you dear :* ", both shouted. Hirdh smiled and blew kisses through phone.

She disconnected the call and reached her bed, drawing curtains sliding on her windows. When she was about to lie down, she heard someone knocking on her door. She groaned again.  

The knocks started becoming more vigorous and she yelled, " coming!" "who wants me at this time?" Hirdh cursed under her breath.

She opened the door but couldn't see anyone. She was about to turn around, when she heard a "Boo.... Boo..." completely startling her.

She let out a cry and turned around. She saw her 2 idiots Dharshi and Sriya laughing at her, clutching onto their stomachs. She was getting mad at them, "what are you two doing here? And when did u arrive?", Hirdh quesioned them.

"hahaha!! Ah hahaha!! Hir ... haha hirdh... haha" Dharshi was laughing while Sriya was grinning at her.

"stop laughing! Now move out. I should get some sleep." Hirdh was damn tired and started to loose her patience.

"No way! You are coming with us! Right now!" both said at the same time, with a stern voice.

"wwhat?!" Hirdh, "but..." her eyes bulged.

"No buts. Now come on! Change your dress. Move move. Only 10 minutes." Sriya ordered.

"Come on Hirdh. Don't just stand there like an idiot. I will pick you a nice outfit, so that you can wear it tonight. Have a short shower." Dharshi said, practically dragging Hirdh into the bedroom and pushing her into the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Sriya and Dharshi had a phone call with Jose. And Sriya picked a clean black jean and a flat red sandal while Dharshi picked a red top with black designs on it. They started knocking the bathroom door, before Hirdh came out.

"Alright alright. Im here." Hirdh said trying to look annoyed. But her lips betrayed her, bearing a small smile.

They jumped up and down, hugging each other, "missed you idiots!", Hirdh shouted. They kissed their cheeks.

"omg! 11:50pm!" Sriya exclaimed.

"okay! Let us get you ready doll!" Dharshi said facing Hirdh.

"ok! So what am I going to wear tonight?", Hirdh asked interested.

"nothing big! But we thought you would wear these!", Sriya replied.

Hirdh saw the outfit and screamed, "you girls are really awesome!"

"Yeah yeah we know. Now let those dresses hug you. We will wait outside."

"okay." Hirdh jumped. She changed into her red and black outfit soon. She opened her bedroom door, revealing herself to them. They exclaimed, "u look gorgeous babe!" Making Hirdh blush.

"aww! That's so sweet. You should do that often. " Sriya giggled making other two giggle eventually.

"let's make up your hair style. " Sriya told grabbing her comb.

5 min later, Hirdh was all ready, leaving few strands of her hair in the front, brushing her cheeks lightly and her brown hair wavy with a white stoned clip at the centre. They did her make up and they all left to the fun spot around 00:10am.

Jose waved them when they neared the fun spot, greeted each other by hugs and pecks on their cheeks. Hirdh was hugged my other girl friends and Nick was standing near the entrance, waving at her madly. When they neared, Nick came running towards her, hugging her and kissed her forehead, " hey lil sis! How are you? Long time no see." Nick exclaimed making Hirdh giggle, " Hi big bro! im fine. Sorry. Lately my job kept me busy."

"Need not apologize sissy!" Nick said. Once Nick saw Dharshi, he blushed a little. Dharshi greeted him with a peck on his lips. Nick gasped with her sudden movement. All of a sudden, he pulled her towards him, his hands on her small back and crushed his full lips on her soft pluffy lips, making her groan. While Sriya and Hirdh stood there smiling at them. Jose cleared his throat making them move apart. Dharshi turned pink while Nick stuttered to reason it out.

"hey common guys! How long will you stay here at the entrance? The whole party is inside!" Stephen cried through the loud music, coming from inside. He was the only person in contact with Nick, after their college days. And he became real close with him. He was the first to know about Nick's feelings for Dharshi besides Hirdh.

All waved back at him and entered the fun spot, where girls and boys of their age where moving around and dancing to the music played. Once they entered, Sriya left them to get them drinks, accompanied by Stephen. While Dharshi left with Nick to dance floor, leaving Jose and Hirdh alone. Hirdh was lightly dancing while Jose was staring at her with brotherly love. She smiled at him and they started dancing together, still sitting in their chairs facing each other. Sriya soon returned to their table. Hirdh sensed that Jose was tensed and Sriya was lightly nervous.

" whats the matter?" Hirdh asked.

" huh! Do you believe us? I mean do you trust us Hirdh?" Sriya asked.

Hirdh turned towards her, " why the heck would u ask me that? that too right now? Are you guys up to something?"

"um...", Sriya "huh...", Jose
Both stuttered.

" u do know that I trust u people with all my heart and soul. ", Hirdh stated plainly.

" yeah we do know that Hirdh. Its just that we wanna ensure it!" Jose explained.

"ensure what?" Hirdh asked. She doubted seriously that they were into something.

"um!! Its... nothing... we are just trying to help you. No matter what life and time throws at you, we will always stay beside u my dear " Sriya expressed her heartfelt love. 

Hirdh's eyes started to water. Her friends were the only humans she was ever close to. And only they knew her true colour and nature. She was grateful for having such kind and loving friends. She thanked God for having them almost daily. She couldn't asked for anything more.

"its ok Hirdh! Sriya! Accompany her to the powder room." Jose said

"no! its ok. Im fine. I will be back in a few min. ok?" Hirdh said, hugging Sriya for one more time. She came out of the fun spot to get some cool air. Cool breeze brushed her face, making her forget about her tedious job and she felt lucky to have her friends. She felt as if she was the luckiest girl on the earth. A small smile tugged her soft supple lips.

When she was about to enter, she saw a black sleek limousine nearing the Fun Spot. She stopped and focused on the car. When she realized that the car was the same one she saw a few min ago, near her office, she stood there watching the beauty of that car, as she didn't notice it properly before. She was mesmerized by the beauty of it. Stylish features and neatly maintained. Hell no way! It was one of the most luxurious cars in the world. She was awestruck when the car came nearer. She felt pretty near the car and she came to the darker part hiding and awed at the car. The car stopped right at the entrance of the Fun Spot.

Doors opened on both side, revealing 5 people. The car was like a small home. As spacious as her portion of her home. A brunette , a black haired, a red blonde and a Russian,4 girls came out. Brunette was wearing a light green dress, fitting her curves perfectly, right from her shoulders to her mid way of her thighs, backless and only a strap was holding the dress to her body. The black haired was wearing a red colored dress, right from her bosom to her knees. She was wearing a see through red gloves on her hands and legs. A red blonde was wearing a full length white frock full backless. She was wearing a white pendant with white stones. Next came a Russian girl, who was wearing a deep blue colored frock, that was way too short to cover all her body. It was too short, according to Hirdh's point of view. Clearly, they were all models. Once they got down, they turned towards the car, waiting for someone.

A guy of more than 6 feet tall, well built body, with a black coat and suit came out. His hair was well groomed and he had an ash tie tied around his neck. When he came to the lights, Hirdh couldn't believe her eyes. He was none other than Alric. Her Alric. But soon, she dispersed her thoughts about him. Only now, she realized the nervous behavior of her friends. She found tears starting to pool in her eyes. She felt the urge to go to him and crush herself on him. But no. She cannot do that to him. That shouldn't happen. She always wanted him to be happy and he deserves to be happy and successful. Its for his own good. She sighed. He went inside along with those 4 girls trying to win his attention back to them. They didnt notice Hirdh.

When she tried to elude from the place, she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders. She turned around to see Dharshi staring at her.

"where do u think u r going?" Dharshi
asked.

"um... Dharsh.. I..I have work tomo morning. Gotta go home and sleep." Hirdh stuttered.

"no way. Party is yet to start. And just now we reached here. No way u are going home now. Come back. Now! " Dharshi shouted at her, clearly irritated.

"um.. but... work.." Hirdh tried to escape.

"hey just wait a sec." Dharshi reached for her phone. She dialed a number and spoke with John, Hirdh boss, as if she knew him for years. Turning towards her, she said " now. U r off tomorrow. Now get in."

"how did u do that? u know my boss already??" Hirdh asked clearly surprised.

"cool cool girl. I have my own ways, to get things done according to my wishes." She grinned at her, while Nick came along, wrapping her shoulders, " its alright sis. Come lets have some fun!" Hirdh glared at him, he was the culprit now.

"hey dont look at me like that. its already time for u two to get back" Nick.

"no way! Im not going anywhere with him" Hirdh exclaimed.

" come on yaar" Dharshi whined. "no way!" Hirdh said stubbornly.

"please sis! He always longs for u. He is still in love with you and always will", Nick pleaded.

"um.... No.. Nick. I am not good enough for a such a good hearted person like him. And we are not even in contact for the past few months.." Hirdh's eyes started to glisten with tears. She tried a lot to control her emotions. Even then, her tears found their way to her pink tinted cheeks. Dharshi wiped her tears saying, "Chup idiot. We all know about you two and your feelings. And hush... dont cry. Everything will turn out fine" and hugged her. She gave a small smile and hugged her back. Slowly, everyone left them behind, giving them some space to get back to normal. Hirdh laid on her friend's shoulder, holding their hands... thinking about their olden days... how they always fitted each other.. how they comforted each other... they had a small smile lingering in their lips... When Dharshi was about to ask Hirdh something, they heard a gunshot, followed by a male screaming. Hirdh panicked and Dharshi startled. They hugged each other. Hirdh turned towards the gun shot direction and she met the pair of most gorgeous eyes, the one whom she was longing to, the one whom she was not able to forget, the one on whom she fell irrevocably in love with, none other than her Al. Al stared at her for a second but then got disturbed when someone hit him on his right leg. Hirdh screamed Aaaaal... but he didn't react to her at all. He was surprised to see her there. His brain was almost jammed and he forgot about all the things happening around him. He just stared at her. She remained exactly the same, with just her outfit a bit more matured and her hair a little longer and wavier. When someone came to hit him on his head, the head detective shot him on the intruder's head. This gunshot made Al to turn
his head behind him. Everything was a mess, with Daniel being dragged by policemen and the other baddies, were either on floor or were dragged by Interpol. Daniel tried to escape but failed miserably as tens and tens of bulky policemen arrived there at a swish of a second. He threw dead daggers at Alric, who was beating few of his men along with police. In few seconds, Al sighed and returned back to police. Daniel and his whole crew were arrested. The people in whole club were running here and there. He turned towards Hirdh's direction... but she was nowhere to be found. His heart ached. Suddenly he got a call from his head detective and he was appreciated for his courageous attempt to finish the drug dealer's chapter, as it was Alric who plotted against Daniel comoletely.  Now that, everything was about to end smoothly, his heart started aching for his love. He rushed to the place where he found her, searched all over the club but neither she nor any human were present. He found only the police running here and there imprisoning the drug dealers. He was patted on his back by the policeman throughout his way out of the club.

Alric was exhausted by all the gunshots. He laid on his back on his bed. He dozed off in less than a second. Suddenly he felt someone waking him up. He woke up alarmed and found no one nearby. He took his short gun and surfed for anyone's presence in his lobby. He found no one. He came to his bed and when he was about to lie down, he found a package on his bed. The package was covered in brown wrapper and nothing written on it. He became very nervous and he cautiously opened it. When he was about to fully unwrap it...

BBHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM......

Alarmed Alric turned towards the direction of the noise with the package still not fully opened in his hand. Near his entrance, there was a big smoke. Few people emerged out of it. He got ready to shoot with his short gun. They got closer to him. When he was about to shoot the first one, the package in his hand started to vibrate. He threw it on the corner and it started singing,

Happy birthday to you...

Happy birtttthhhdddday to youuuu...

Happy birthday to Alric..... Happpieee birthday to youuuuu...."

He didn't know what was happening around him. Now he found the smoke has got cleared and there stood .... None other than his friend Nick.
