||23 Dec: Birthday of a Rockstar named Rachel (.Vrushanholic)||

22nd December 2014 10 PM

Somewhere in Mumbai,

Girl: (Lying on her bed) I am not even sleepy tonight! How am I supposed to sleep then?

Girl's brain: Rachel, stop complaining. Why don't you count sheep, eh? It will help you sleep.

Rachel: sheep? Okay I'll try. One sheep..two sheep...three sheep..four sheep...zzz

Rachel's brain: wow. It really worked. Looks like we can go sleep now too. Its dreaming time now!

******

Rachel finds herself at the turn of a street. It was unknown yet strangely familiar to her.

Rachel: where on earth am I? 🤓

She walked forward on the footpath and her eyes went wide as her jaw dropped. She couldn't believe her eyes. The same black door, the same tilted doorknob and the same letters.

Rachel: 221B? Baker Street? Oh man. I can't believe It.! 😲

R's brain: dopamine overdose! Send some serotonin or the girl's going to faint.

Rachel: okay Rachel. Take a deep breath. Yeah, that's how.

She pushed the door gently and to her surprise it opened. Not being able to believe her luck, she rushed in and made her way upstairs straight to the room. Rachel held her breath. this place was as sacred as a church for her. she opened the door slowly.

Rachel: Oh. My. God. 😲

For there he was, Sherlock Holmes, seated on the couch, deep in thought, his long fingers supporting his chin.

Rachel: (in a whisper) You have to be kidding me. 😳

Sherlock: (without opening his eyes): I was expecting you.

Rachel: you were? 😲

Sherlock: of course. It is your dream. What could be more obvious than your presence.

Now that Rachel thought of it, it was the most obvious thing in the world. And then, something hit her again. She was in 221B Baker Street, in the presence of Sherlock Holmes. God save her.

Sherlock: it's painful watching you channel your thoughts. Could you just be done with it and talk?

Rachel: Er. Er.. 😳

Sighing, Sherlock sprang from the couch and marched to his room.

R's brain: what on earth was this? You went totally mute.

R's heart: its William Sherlock Scott Holmes is in front of her. what sanity can you expect from her in such a situation.

Rachel waved off the conversation as Sherlock re-entered the room with a small gift-wrapped box in his hand. Rachel stared at him, nonplussed. And a tiny smirk appeared on her face as it floated towards her. she had got a pretty much good idea as to what it was.

Rachel: What is that? 😆

Sherlock flinched visibly and Rachel had to stifle the laughter building up inside her.

Sherlock: John got this for you. And he told me to say (looks down at the label on the gift) er. Happy birthday Rachel.

Rachel: (with a wide smile) thank you so much Sherlock. That is sweet of you. 😃

Sherlock: stop smiling.

Rachel: its my birthday! 🐷

She started opening the gift when-

Sherlock: stop. Don't open here.

Rachel: why? 😕

Sherlock: Because I say so. Go down and open it. Your younger brother will like it too.

Rachel didn't bother to ask how he came to know she had a younger brother. She didn't want to give him a chance to show off.

Rachel: thank you Sherlock. 😳

She hugged him quickly and bustled down the stairs laughing, imagining the look on Sherlock face. As she stood on the pavement she opened the gift and in it were a pair of earplugs and a note.

Rachel: what the..? 🤓

Get in the car Miss Fernandes, put on the earplugs and go to sleep. A surprise awaits you at the end of the journey.'

Rachel: (to herself) surprise? Where's the car but? 🤓

A sleek hi-tech car stopped right in front of her. Rachel grew breathless as she saw it. The door sprang open and Rachel climbed in with trembling legs. The seat covers were a leathery black. Rachel put in the earplugs and closed her eyes, placing her hands on the armrest.

Mechanised Voice: Happy Journey Miss Rachel.

****

Mechanised Voice: We have reached our destination Miss.

Rachel got down rubbing her eyes and the next thing she saw nearly gave her a heart attack. She was standing few metres away from a vanity van outside which two people stood, beaming at her. it was the presence of that two people which threatened to take her down.

Rachel: (stammering): VruShan...? 😳

She walked towards them warily. No way she was seeing them in front of her. as she neared she saw the wide smiles on their faces. Only Vrushika and Shantanu could have that smile on their faces. Looking at them smile, Rachel beamed back at them.

VruShan: (hugging Rachel) Happy Birthday Rachel! 😃

Rachel was in heaven and too mesmerised to reply back.

R's Brain: (hissing) Rachel! Reply.

Rachel: uhuh..thank you so much. I cant believe i am being hugged by you. 😲

Shantanu: (laughing) Neither can we.

Rachel: I am so happy to see you. Believe me you just made my day.

Shantanu: technically, you still aren't seeing us. I mean this is your dream..(changes track as Vrushika glares at him) but it's the emotions that matter. 😃

Vrushika: Sahi kaha. By the way we have a gift for you.

Shantanu: yeah. Here. From us to a very lovely fan. 😳

Rachel took the gift excitedly and opened it. It was a watch!

Rachel: thank you! You know I love you both right? 😃

VruShan: More than anything. 😃

*****

December 23: 6 AM

Rachel: Hehh..VruShan. ☺️

Lady: Rachel! Rachel dear! Wake up.

Rachel: (jearks up) huh..Mom?

R's Mom: Happy Birthday Rachel!

Rachel: (in mind) My birthday, finally. After yesterday's dream, I think this will be one of the best birthdays! 😃

WISHES.
