Chapter 263

While she was wondering who had sent the flowers, she heard a knock on the door. She walked over and opened the door and this time it was the UPS guy standing there with a smile. He said "Can you please sign there? Are you Diya Sharma?" He handed her a gift wrapped box. She was puzzled and turned around to walk in with the box and the card. He asked her again, Excuse me. This was on your door-step" and gave her a tiny card that was almost the size of a credit card. She figured that it must have fallen from the flowers that she had received earlier and thanked him and closed the door behind him.

The gift box had a card glued on top and she couldn't really read who had sent it, at least not without opening it. She kept the card that had fallen off from the bouquet and curiously opened the card on the box. It was an invitation to an get together for that afternoon and it was somewhere in Connecticut but she figured it would take about at least an hours drive to get there. She hurriedly opened up the box and it looked like her high school year book. She opened it but, but it had been updated with all her classmates pictures and what they were doing today. She was excited but she still didn't know who had sent it to her. She had missed the front page which had a pink slip attached to it.

Once she noticed it she went back and it was from Sara and John and it also said that they will pick her up and drop her back as they had missed her name in the original invite. She was a little upset that they had missed her name, but was happy that they were willing to pick and drop her off as an apology. She didn't want to Call Sara right away but she decided that she will go to see all her friends. She looked at the clock and she didn't have much time so she went right ahead to take a shower completely forgetting about the flowers she had received and all the thoughts that were on her mind from last evening.
