Secrets Of Live

1 chapter

Welcome to the heart of Punjab, where the soil smells of fresh earth and the air carries the scent of rich, green fields. This is where stories begin, where life moves at its own rhythm, and where the morning sun rises with hope and dreams. Amidst all this, we find our beloved characters—Aarya and Arjun—navigating the everyday chaos of their lives.

Aarya’s Morning Chaos

The morning light crept through the curtains, casting a soft glow on the room. Aarya lay still in bed, not ready to face the world yet. Her pillow felt like the only safe place, and she wanted nothing more than to stay wrapped in its warmth.

Sunita (Aarya's Mother):
"Aarya, wake up! It's getting late. If you don't hurry, you'll miss college."

Aarya moaned, her voice muffled by the pillow.
"Mom, please. Just five more minutes. I want to skip college today. I'm too tired." She sounded desperate, but there was no escape from her mother’s strict routine.

Sunita (firmly):
"No means no, Aarya. Get up now. Otherwise, you know what will happen." Her tone was non-negotiable.

Aarya groaned in frustration, but she knew her mom meant business. With a reluctant sigh, she threw the blankets off and sat up, her eyes still heavy with sleep. Aarya only feared one person in this world, and that person was her mother. And right now, she wasn’t about to test her patience.

Aarya (grumbling as she got up):
"Okay, I’m up… but I really don't want to go."

Meanwhile, Arjun’s Morning

Arjun was in a completely different mood. He had woken up early, in high spirits, and was already humming to himself as he got ready.

Arjun (singing joyfully):
"La la la, I’m a prince today!"

Sameer (Arjun’s elder brother) (shaking his head):
"Nawab, where are you? Don’t tell me you’re planning to sleep through the day again."

Arjun (grinning mischievously):
"Bhaiyya yaar, please, don’t call me that. I’m not a kid anymore."

Sameer (teasing):
"You might not be a kid, but you're still a Nawab who can't get up on time. You better hurry up. Breakfast is ready. Otherwise, you'll be late for college, as usual."

Arjun (with a lazy stretch):
"Okay, okay, I’m coming."

Back to Aarya’s House

Aarya was slowly dragging herself out of her room, but she still couldn’t shake off the grogginess. As she walked to the kitchen, she glanced at her mother, who was already preparing breakfast.

Aarya (pouting cutely):
"Mom, how do you wake up so early every day? How do you have so much energy?"

Sunita (laughing lightly):
"Someone has to keep this house running. If I didn’t wake up early, you’d still be in bed at noon."

Aarya (playfully rolling her eyes):
"I’m not lazy, Mom. I just enjoy my sleep."

Sunita (teasing):
"Well, someone needs to wake up early, or else we’ll have a Kumbhkaran situation here."

Aarya froze for a moment, her expression turning serious.
"I’m not Kumbhkaran," she said quietly, the words almost slipping out of her control.

Sunita (raising her hands in surrender):
"Okay, okay! I take it back. No more Kumbhkaran jokes." She quickly realized she had pushed her daughter too far.

Aarya took a deep breath, releasing her anger, and gave her mother a soft smile.
"Sorry, Mom. I didn’t mean to snap like that. I don’t know why I keep getting worked up over this." Her voice softened, and her eyes went back to normal.

Sunita (patting her shoulder):
"It’s alright. I understand. Now, hurry up, and come have breakfast before college."

Aarya (nodding and smiling):
"Okay, Mom." She felt calmer now, ready to take on the day, but still unwilling to fully let go of her irritation.

After Breakfast

Aarya grabbed her bag and made her way to the door. Sunita’s voice called out after her, stopping her in her tracks.

Sunita (in a serious tone):
"Aarya, wait."

Aarya (turning around with curiosity):
"Yes, Mom?"

Sunita (with an almost mysterious air):
"When you come back from college, come home quickly. I need to tell you something. It’s important. Something that could change your entire life."

Her words sent a chill down Aarya’s spine. What could this be? What was so urgent?

Chhapar – "Neha, you’re really getting good at this! The balance of humor and suspense is great."

Neha (Author) – "Haha, thank you! I was in the mood to write something a bit lighter, but trust me, the next part will get darker. Things are about to take a turn."
