                                                                            15 August  (10 am IST )   

                                                                                      India

Whatever happened yesterday night has gotten over my mind. I forgot that today's my birthday. I was too tired so Russia had carried me to my bed. I don't remember anything else. And.. the wings. They seem to be beautiful. They are pearly white in colour. But handling all the feather mess is going  to be tiring. I don't want to give Sri double work since she has to stay and do all the work herself. Today was a holiday because UN had to go to Africa for some issues. Sri saw that I was awake in bed and shouted to me " Russia was calling you a million times and I was silencing it so you don't wake up." I started to laugh to myself that he can be so overprotective of me. Then I took her words seriously(not completely) and went to the bathroom, at a very slow speed. 


                                                                                    Russia

I was so worried that I called her once again before going to her dorm. Her sister picked the call and told me she just woke up when I heard shoutings in Hindi and Tamil in the background. I immediately cut the phone to laugh. That silly girl, oh, today's a holiday, my bad. I've shouldn't have called her. Because I know she will wake up at 10 am in the morning. At least I have promised her Food but that girl is one of the weirdest and most confusing girl according to me.

Then I heard someone huffing and puffing behind me and............  falling a million times. I knew at once who was it. It was none other than India, covered with dirt and bruises. She looked at me angrily. "Why did you call me a million times and why is this place too far from the doors? my wings nearly killed me!!!!" She was shouting and I was laughing uncontrollably. I stopped 'cause I don't want to die. Then I became serious as I always am. I told her " I want to tell you something about yesterday." " What?" She asked me. I knew she was clearly upset. I told her 

"yesterday you had disappeared mysteriously. Then appeared at  12.  Tell me where were you and how did you get the wings?"

                                                                           India

I was clearly scared. He towered on me. I had to tell him. Despite of my injuries, my legs still kept standing for a few seconds until I collapsed to the ground crying. He immediately bended down and lifted my chin to face his eyes. I didn't want to tell him. " I will but you will have to show no emotion, not even in your mind" I told him. He agreed. Then I told him the entire story.  He showed no emotion but I got the feeling he was shocked inside. " I told you Russ but you still showed emotion." Now he was shocked on the outside too." H-How did y-you r-read my m-mind " He asked me. " I have no idea. I just got the feeling" Then I remembered Mom's words " You will get powers and wings" I understood it but do I have many powers or a single one. I was confused till Russia said "Let's go and have lunch, you'll feel better." Since now, I was 19, I had no problem going out with him because he is 2 years older than me so I always told him to wait. I agreed.

As they walked out of the garden, wind rustled in a weird direction behind them.  Russia was calm but India started to get nervous.  She  begged him to go back to the dorms. He agreed. They came back and when they reached the dorms, India's nervousness conquered her brain.  

"Stay with me Russia! Stay with me!" With these words, she started crying into his jacket. Russia was shocked. He didn't expect that kind of request. "It's okay Indy, I'll stay with you the entire day, okay?" He calmed her down and dropped her to her dorm.  The mysterious person/nation called out to another through a rustle of wind. They came and they told them" These two are becoming closer to each other. Is this a part of your plan" The second person/nation nodded a 'Yes'. Then they both separated and followed each of them.
