Day 9
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
When I woke up, I found myself in Aditi's arms.
|
||
Ugh! What was she doing here?
|
||
I watched her sleep peacefully.
|
||
I wondered where the others were. The spaceship has become busy
|
||
with the entire crew on it's feet. And I was now dreading to go outside.
|
||
Too many people made me nervous.
|
||
|
||
I leaned over her and whispered, "Aditi?"
|
||
Her eyes opened almost instantaneously. I jumped back and she
|
||
pulled me in. "Watch your head," she said softly, as she got up.
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
"I couldn't let the others sleep with you, so I took charge," Aditi said
|
||
nonchalantly, as she tied her hair into a bun.
|
||
"What's wrong with the others?" I asked curiously.
|
||
"Nothing. You're incompatible."
|
||
"Incompatible?" I repeated.
|
||
"Do you know what incompatible means?" she asked, turning around.
|
||
"Yes. But how do you know that?"
|
||
"Know what?"
|
||
"That we're incompatible."
|
||
"Everyone took standard tests. The six of us took extensive tests, just
|
||
to make sure," she said.
|
||
|
||
"I just don't understand why you're doing all this," I said, shaking my
|
||
head.
|
||
"You're getting a new team," she said.
|
||
"I don't want no new team! I want my old team! I want Kriti! I want
|
||
Adah! I want Trisha-"
|
||
Knock Knock Knock!
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
Priyanka stood at the door. She flashed us a bright smile. "Hey guys!
|
||
Am I interrupting?"
|
||
"Ye-"
|
||
"No!" Aditi cut me off.
|
||
I glared at her.
|
||
"Hi! I'm Priyanka," Priyanka said as she held out her hand.
|
||
"Krsnah," I replied, shaking her hand.
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
The mood at the breakfast table was sombre, mainly because I had
|
||
a permanent frown on my face, and the slightest provocation would've
|
||
made me snap.
|
||
|
||
After breakfast, Kriti called me aside.
|
||
|
||
"Baby, you're getting a new team," Kriti said softly, holding my hands.
|
||
"Why?"
|
||
"They're going to train you and get you ready for Mars," she replied.
|
||
"Why are you leaving me?" My voice broke as tears flooded my eyes.
|
||
"Baby don't!" She pulled me into her arms and hugged me tightly. "I'm
|
||
not leaving you baby. I'll always be here with you, okay?"
|
||
"I don't want no new team!" I whimpered in frustration.
|
||
"It's okay. They're going to take good care of you," she replied, gently
|
||
rubbing my back.
|
||
|
||
"Krsnah."
|
||
Trisha showed up, followed closely by Adah and Selena.
|
||
They hugged me and consoled me.
|
||
"I'm going to miss you," I told them.
|
||
"Ugh! Don't be dramatical! We're not dying!"" Adah quipped.
|
||
"We're not going anywhere. We just won't be able to spend as much
|
||
time with you," Trisha said.
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
The tests had 36 points.
|
||
Adah had scored 9 points, Trisha and Kriti 17 each and Selena 20.
|
||
According to Aditi, if they stayed with me, there would be problems
|
||
due to our differences.
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
"Krsnah, you'll do a fitness test today, followed by a personality test,"
|
||
Aditi said, "When you get your results, you'll be introduced to your new
|
||
teams."
|
||
"Teams?!"
|
||
"Yes, teams."
|
||
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! Come oooooooooooooonnnnn!"
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
Nobody helped me in the gym. They all stood around, watching.
|
||
Aditi barked instructions, urging me to push harder. They were going
|
||
to test my endurance limits.
|
||
I was soaked in sweat.
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
"You did well today!"
|
||
"What the fuuu-" I grabbed my towel and wrapped it around my torso.
|
||
Priyanka closed the washroom door behind her.
|
||
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? GET OUT!" I said angrily.
|
||
"Oh relax! You've got nothing that I haven't seen before. Besides, if
|
||
we're going to work together, you'll have to get used to this," she said,
|
||
walking around me.
|
||
"We're not working together!" I hissed.
|
||
"Okay," she said, smiling, then washed her face.
