CHAPTER 39

ISHITA POV....

I sit inside of my car and let Kiaan sit on passenger seat. I put his bag on back seat together with mine. Kiaan and I both sit inside the car and didn't say anything to each other. I started to drive my car while thinking why he did this. He is a disciplined boy as much as I knew him as, so what happened to him all of a sudden that he became like this. I didn't say anything and he is just looking outside of the car. I am watching him from time to time to see what he is doing but not for once he looks at my face which is strange.

From when morning came, everything was fine. He was as usual cheerful baby, gave me rose while making faces, took the bath, went to temple, played with children, making dodo eat his dog food, pack his school bag and with a smiling face he went to school. From today morning I felt like he is disturbed with something because he was not so active like he usually does.

I shared my thought with Rehan but Rehan said that he might be feeling low as sometimes children feel this way.

It's normal to feel this way but I don't feel like its normal. I guess something happened with him. I need to talk with him carefully.

We reached the orphanage and parked my car. Just behind the orphanage is where our house is situated. I also have some work in the orphanage so I directly parked my car here. I will talk with him by night. I tried to ask him in school but he didn't say anything there other than 'It's not my fault and I won't say sorry to anyone'

I came outside the car and went to another side to make him come outside as well. I opened his car door and he jumped outside. He opens the back seat of the car and took out his bag and my purse. He forwards my purse without looking at me which I take it from his small hand. He tucked his school bag from his back and went inside our house.

Rehan came outside from my cabin and he sit on the floor while opening his arms to give Kiaan a hug but he just ignore him and directly went inside our house. Rehan looked at me with confused face and I took a deep breath. I look at him and shrugged my shoulder. I came inside of my cabin and took a seat. Rehan also come inside and sit in front of me.

"What happened di? What happened to Kiaan? He never behaved like this? Did something happen in school?" Rehan asked and I took a deep breath and explained everything what his class teacher and principal said to me.

"Di, what happened to him all of the sudden? I think you should go to him and ask him about the problem maybe he will say something to you now."

"No Rehan, I think I should give him some time. I am also getting confused about his new behavior." I said to him and he just nodded his head. I notice something on his face I think something happened with him too.

"Rehan"

"Yes di?"

"What happened to you?"

"No-nothing di, why are you asking?" Rehan said while looking here and there and not looking into my eyes.

"In these months I got to know a little about you. I know when you lie to me or hide something from me. Now tell me what the problem is?" I asked him and looking straight into his eyes. He closed his eyes and took a deep sigh.

"I will tell you tonight but for now we need to focus on Kiaan." He said making me sad again thinking about my son. What makes him so sad?

"Di, I think you should go and talk to him while I handle everything here." Rehan suggested me

"I think you are right. I should check on him first. You take care here and you are going to explain to me everything tonight" I said to him making him smile a little which didn't reach on his eyes.
