40. VIEW POINT

Sid and Vaishnavi were in the cafeteria and decided to pick up Eddy and Brett from the airport at 9am.

Both had their respective classes till 7:30am.
Then the professor addressed all the students to assemble in the foyer.

"What now?" Vaishnavi questioned.
"The trio results!" Sid exclaimed.

A while later all the students were assembled in the foyer and were talking with their friends.

"Students, the results of the trio competition has arrived." The professor spoke.
In the crowd, many students were excited or frightened.

That's when Sid felt a presence of someone.
"Hello Sid, Vaishnavi." Vacy spoke.
Both ignored him.

"It was a hard decision to make and hence three groups shall be chosen to compete for the top spot. The group that wins shall be sent to compete for the next competition."
The crowd cheered.

"Three trio groups:
4, 6 and 9" The professor announced.

"WHAT?" Vaishnavi exclaimed.
"Group 9 was ours, right?" Sid asked
"Yes." Vacy said.

"I request the three groups to arrive at the stage."
The three groups stood facing the audience.
The crowd clapped for the three groups.

"These three groups shall perform tomorrow with a trio of their choice."

Sid and Vaishnavi looked at each other in shock.

Vacy noticed the looks on Vaishnavi and Sid's face.
"Everything alright?" Vacy questioned.
Both immediately looked away from each other.
"Yeah." Sid said in a flat tone.

Aftet the result announced and everyone left, Sid looked at his watch.
"Its 8am. We should leave." Sid said.
"Yeah." Vaishnavi replied.

Both left the uni, but they were being followed.

Vacy saw Vaishnavi and Sid leaving the uni. He followed them without letting them suspect.

"What are you both up to?" Vacy whispered.

After Sid and Vaishnavi got in the car, Vacy saw something like a brochure in Sid's hand. Before he could read anything written on it, Vaishnavi drove the car.

Vaishnavi saw a familiar figure on her rear view mirror.
"Is that Vacy?!"
"What? He was following us?" Sid asked looking back.
"I guess so."
"He knows that we're going to the airport?!"
"I hope not."
