Chapter 8

  • I was working on the assignment when he entered the room. He came towards me and before he could say anything I blurted, "I am sorry for what happened downstairs. I swear I didn't do it purposely. Rohit was teasing me and I told him to stop. But he kept on doing that. I was trying to kill... I am s-sorry… "
  • "No, it is ok, he is an idiot... " After a pause, he ran his fingers in his hair and said, "Priya, I am sorry too, I thought it was... I shouted at you too. Please forgive me."
  • "Please don't say that, I understand. It is not your fault, aunty told me to wake you up. I called your name twice but you didn't get up, so I touched your shoulder but still you didn't stir, so I had to shake you. I am sorry for that."
  • "What are you doing with the laptop, are you not sleepy?"
  • " I have got an assignment at college and I couldn't finish it because of the sudden event. but I have to finish it by tomorrow as on Monday I have to join my college and submit this." I told him and he nodded.
  • "What is it all about?" He asked.
  • "The comparison between the old methods of printing and finishing clothes and the latest technology used in the printing of clothes."
  • "Oh great, let me know, if you need any help." He said with a faint smile.
  • I nodded and said thanks. He changed into his night suit and said, "Why don't you go to bed, you will be more comfortable there while working."
  • I shook my head and said, "If I sit on the bed to work, I would be too comfortable and will sleep instead of doing my work. I can't afford to do that or I won't be able to finish this by tomorrow. Please let me work here, you can take the bed, as it is, it will take time."
  • He nodded and went to bed. I shut down the lights so that he doesn't get disturbed.
  • I kept working for a few hours and didn't even know when I slipped into slumber.
  • *******
  • I got up when my alarm went off I quickly switched it off. I threw my blanket aside and got down off the bed. Bed?? But, what is this? I remember very clearly, that I slept on the couch. I looked for him. He was sleeping on the other side of the bed.
  • "My God!!!! Did I walk while sleeping?"
  • I was shocked. I hope I didn't touch him. I hope he didn't get up at night. He must not know that I slept on the same bed. Please God save me from this embarrassment.
  • I freshened up, took a bath and went downstairs to prepare food as today I will cook here for the first time. I didn't even know what everyone would like to eat. I was looking into the refrigerator when aunty came into the kitchen. She hugged me and asked, "Priya beta could you not sleep properly? Why are you up so early in the morning?"
  • "Aunty, you told me that I have to prepare food today, so here I am."
  • "How sweet beta, but you didn't have to get up so early. Today is Sunday so everyone will get up late and have a heavy brunch around 11 AM. so you can rest if you want..."
  • " Aunty, I always get up at 6 in the morning so it's not early for me... just tell me what everybody would like to eat. I'll make breakfast for everyone." I replied to her smiling.
  • "You know what?? You are an angel beta. You can make whatever you want. It is just a ritual beta, make whatever you are comfortable in making."
  • " Aunty, will you please tell me, what to make for everyone. I don't know what they would like to eat, please tell me, what is everybody's favourite breakfast. "
  • "As you wish beta, I will tell you, but you can make anyone anything you want. But since you are asking, I will tell you. Your dad loves to eat Paranthas or something healthy, I eat almost everything. Both Rahul and Rohit are foodie. Rahul loves to eat paranthas or sandwiches while Rohit loves to eat sandwiches, pasta or salad. But I suggest that you should make something sweet as it is a must for this ritual."
  • I nodded and went to the kitchen with her. She told the kitchen helpers to provide me with anything I want and help me in preparing stuff.
  • She said, " Priya, Pooja and I planned to do something in the morning today, so I'm going to meet her. I will be back by 10:30....... please don't exert yourself and just make whatever you are comfortable in making. All the best. Take all the help you want from helpers." She kissed my forehead and left to meet my mom.
  • I planned the brunch and asked the helpers to bring out all the ingredients necessary for making dishes. I planned to make stuffed Aaloo parantha (Flat bread stuffed with a spicy mix of boiled potatoes and onions), stir-fried idli with lots of veggies, grilled Pizza sandwich, soyabean salad and halwa.
  • My mom and aunty came back and they came to me in the kitchen. Aunty was shocked to see that I have prepared so many things she said, "Oh my god!! Are we going to have a feast today? You made something for everyone. I want to see the look on everybody's face... let's surprise them with this feast." She went to personally call everyone.
  • My mom was looking adoringly at me and said, "I am very proud of you beta. "
  • The helpers brought everything on the table which I made. I already told them to prepare tea and coffee. I had already beaten the coffee to make some nice frothy coffee. According to my dad, I make the best coffee in the world.
