After that , Ayaan joined the conversation, congratulating me for the win. I was externally present there, internally I was already fighting my memories and thoughts, trying my best to control myself and not show any emotions on my face. I was doing my best to mask it all with a smile. Suddenly, Ayaan suggested we go have some drinks to celebrate this new bond and the win. 

Ayaan: “ Guys, let's celebrate this win over some drinks. What say?”
