I woke up and completed my morning routine. I got ready to work. I had my breakfast and left to work.

I was waiting for bus in the bus stand. Then bus arrived and for my luck I got a window seat. I was thinking about yesterday.

I don't know why my mother hates me. My step father and step sister not liking me is okay but my own mother hating me. It hurts. Don't she have a little bit of connection with me. She carried me 9 months in her womb, do I not matter to her. I don't even know anything anymore.

I reached my office and started doing my work. My boss was absent. I don't know what's cooking with him nowadays. He is not regular to work. He comes once in 2 weeks. And even during that time he won't stay for a long time.

I continued my work till lunch break and went to the cafe where I go regularly during lunch break. I had messaged Atharva and he said he will be here in few minutes.

I had brought that book I was currently reading and was so immersed in it.

"Boo!" He came and said near my ears.

I got scared and book I was holding fell down.

"Idiot." I scolded him.

He came and sat beside me and laughing loudly drawing everyone's attention on us.

"Stop laughing." I said glaring at him and picked the book and kept it on the table.

"I didn't know you are such a scaredy cat." He said while grinning like a fool.

"I am not. I was so involved in reading that I didn't feel you that's all."

"Whatever helps you to sleep at night babygirl." He said the last word mimicking Michele Morrone's voice.

I just rolled my eyes at him.

"By the way which book you were reading?"

"I bought a new novel called ' My love '. The girl's character was similar to mine so I decided to read it."

When I said this he became nervous and started seeing here and there.

"What happened to you?" I questioned him.

"Nothing. I brought lunch for you." And kept a long tiffin box on front of me. I opened it and saw it contain all my favourite food.

First box had aloo Paratha , second box had paneer gravy and third box had carrot halwa.
