"I'm very excited for the New Year. I'm going to have fun celebrating that day with my family and friends," said Aditi.
"Me too. The CC forum is less exciting these days with all of us busy with our own work during this holiday season", replied Simmy. With a sudden spark of excitement she continued, "We could organize something fun to celebrate the New Year in our forum. Maybe, a party? We could all do with a break once in a while. What say?"
"Well! When you are in CC, there will always be something exciting to do", said Arthy. "We are going to have a party. It is not a New Year party though, but a birthday party."
"A birthday party? But whose?", asked Aditi.
"After being in the Birthday Sub team for so long, one would assume you people would keep a track on birthdays", Yuvi sighed.
"Well! We ain't called nikamme CC for nothing", laughed Simmy.
"Back to the discussion in hand, it's one of our lead's birthday on the 2nd of January and we are going to throw a party for her", said Arthy.
"That's cool!", exclaimed Aditi. "Jan 2? I guess I know who it is."
"The current lead of 'Games and Contests Sub team', right?", asked Simmy.
"Yep, that's the one!", asserted Arthy. "But, what are we going to gift her?"
"She likes dancing. She'll be interested in dance workshops. I heard there's going to be a free-style dance workshop held this weekend near where she lives. We could maybe gift her a ticket to that workshop."
"Nice idea, Aditi", exclaimed Simmy. "We can also gift her the 'Mario' game. I have heard she likes to play that. Something nostalgic and fun! What say?"
"That's a cool idea! She also likes basketball too. We can probably gift her a basketball. But wait, a basketball is too simple - She can buy it anytime, anywhere. Maybe we can make it special by getting the ball signed by two of her favourite actors- Varun Dhawan and Shahid Kapoor?" suggested Yuvika.
"That would be a terrific combo!", exclaimed Arthy. "I have an idea too. What's that one thing every person loves to do? Sleep, of course.😳 And she loves sleep too. Therefore, I think that the best present for her would be a very very comforting quilt along with her all time favourite book 'Oliver Twist'. How about that?", asked Arthy with a huge smile.
"Well! All four of the ideas for presents are lovely. So how do we choose one?" enquired Aditi.
"Correct! All of them are good." agreed Yuvika. "Wait! Why should we choose one? Maliha has served the Crazy Creatives for four good years. She has stood by the CC and has helped us whenever needed. So, as a token of appreciation for those four amazing years, we will present her with all the four gifts. A ticket to a dance workshop, a basketball signed by Varun and Shahid, a Mario game and of course, a comforting quilt with a hard copy of Oliver Twist.😃
At the birthday party...
"We hope the birthday girl is having fun?" said Simmy whilst dancing.
"The party is amazing, Simmy. I'm loving it." said Maliha.
"Then, it's time for presents now!", added Aditi.
"Well, here they are!" exclaimed Yuvika and Arthy carrying two gifts each.
"Four! Why four?"
"To mark your four fantastic years in CC and for your support - one each for every year."😃 Maliha smiled as she viewed the gifts and danced the night away with the rest of the team!
