" What are you doing here?" Rithu asked as I was standing in front of Nithya's room.
" Nothing. It's very hot na? I came here for some fresh air" I said giving a faint smile.
" Ohh Is it? I know the source of that fresh air. So without sweating too much, go to your room. Mom dad will be here at any moment". She said and I fled to my room without wasting a second. Dad would kill me if he found me here.
I have to do many things before they came. Last week they went to Badrinath temple. They visit there every year. I have to take each step carefully. Dad is already upset of me as I stalked Nithya like a creep.
I have to make a good boy image infront of Nithya. After half an hour mom and dad came with lots of shopping bags. I think mom had bought the entire Uttarakhand. She is a shopping freak. Both my sisters are exactly like her following her legacy.
" Karthik, you became so thin. Why didn't you eat properly" she started her regular dialogue.
" Chill ma, for God's sake I'm 27, you are treating me like a five-year old kid.
She was about to say something, but suddenly she stopped . She looked behind me and was shocked. I followed her line of vision and found Nithya standing there .
" Nithya?" Mom walked towards her and hugged her.
" How are you beta?" She asked with a smile. She was very happy to see Nithya there.
" I'm good Aunty" she said and bent to touch her feet . Mom blessed her . She saw bandages Nithya's arm and leg .
" What happened beta? " She asked with concern. Before Nithya could say something Rithu interfered . " Nothing ma. She got slipped in the washroom" .
Riya ( Doctor) told us not to remind Nithya about that incident . It had affected psychologically. She was in the verge of having a panic attack . Riya suggested that there are high scopes of such panic attacks in future.
" You should be careful beta" mom said and caressed her face lovingly. I noted her special affection for her .
We explained about Nithya's staying to mom and she was so happy . I tried to initiate a conversation with Nithya, but mom and Rithu are not leaving her alone. Mom is taking good care of her. I'm so happy for that. But I want to spend some time alone with her. Rithu is revolving around her like a satellite.
I was so frustrated as mom kick me out of her room three times. Last time I went with a glass of juice, but Rithu snatched it from me and kick me out.
After lunch I went to office for some work. I was sitting in my cabin thinking about all possible ways to initiate a conversation. Suddenly an idea popped in my head.
I dialed Rithu's number.
" Hello stalker" she said as soon as she pick up the call.
" Hey, have you purchased dress for Avinav's engagement?" I asked hoping a negative answer .
