The next day morning jenny called me shouting that she would be in town by tomorrow evening, Mom and dad stayed home. After breakfast , Cole and dad were talking in living room, apparently they had a lot to talk about their professional experiences. 

Mom was talking to cathy, sam was on a business call while i cleaned the dishes and prepared to make some juice for cathy and mom, i cut out the fresh oranges and carrots, saved some carrot for myself, 

Cathy had high blood pressure and so mom said that i should make something of oranges involved which can help her control blood pressure, i blended the carrots and orange together with a little amount of honey then poured them in cups for serving. 

Then i placed the carrots in a water filled bowl with salt and went out to serve the juice, my delicious carrots were perfectly cooked by the time i came back, i drained the water, transferred them into a bowl and sprinkled a little spice on them. 

I went to sit beside mom and cathy, mom was telling something about the town church, "you still eat this" cathy asked stealing a piece, i nodded offering some to mom, she shook her head and continued to talk about, i grew out bored.

After finishing my food, i went out searching for samrat, he was sitting on chair in the backyard talking in phone, he gave a nod as i went to sit beside him, he was talking soo aggressively, he was being harsh, if i were at the receiving end i would've cut the call already, what is he soo stressed about?

He hung up and threw the phone on table, "why?" i asked calmly, "i am going crazy with all these work" he complained, "why?" i asked in same tone, he gave me a weird look before saying that i would not get it even if he explained, 

"sam" i tried to get him to talk but failed, i didn't know how to ask him to vent it out, 

"i have a meeting in the afternoon, i'll go prepare for it" he said leaving me in the backyard, what was that? did he just show the frustration on me? i got angry but more than that i am concerned about him.

In the afternoon he was sitting in my room for the meeting, "Sweety call samrat for lunch" mom said as i was helping her set table, 

I sighed instead of answering, "go on" mom said, i nodded and dragged myself upstairs. He was seriously looking on the system screen that he didn't even notice me coming in, i stood silently not to disrupt his work. 

Atlast when he noticed me "bunny? sorry i didn't see you" he said, "let's eat something" i said, he sighed looking at me and then at screen, 

"sorry, still got a lot to do" he said, 

"just 30 minutes sam, everyone are waiting for you" i said, he's neglecting food for office work, how will he have strength to work without eating anything? this is getting me more and more concerned, 

"please continue without me, just today, i really have a lot to handle now" he said in a dismissive way. I hated it, the way he said it.... i immediately turned around cursing under my breath, bastard. 

"atleast join us after you finish" i said, he hummed and i left the room feeling hurt, what a moron! can't he take out atleast 30 minutes for family lunch, everyone are waiting for him, he is being disrespectful, i know work is important but is it that necessary to even skip meals, now i know how mom feels when skip meals! she was just concerned like me.

"He's still working, he'll join us later" i said sitting down, "oh poor boy, he's working hard, do one thing take meals to him after you finish" mom said and i nodded in response, cathy nudged me asking if i am okay, i smiled not answering anything, i am absolutely not okay, i am angry and also worried about him, this man i don't know why, it's hard everytime with samrat, i always seem to have mixed feeling about him.
