Endless Affection ( In the end , love always finds a way )

(28). Promises and Pressures

Siya often thinks about the incident when she was going to the restroom, and she was about to slip, but Freen caught her, and at that moment, they were quite close. She remembers that moment vividly, the way she looked into Freen's eyes and felt her breath on her face, it brought a smile to her face.

(Night: 10:00 pm)

(Freen returns home, quite exhausted from a long day of work and now plans to meet Siya , which adds to her fatigue.)

Freen's Mom: you look so tired !

Freen: Yes, Mom. I'm really tired. I'll take a shower and then you can serve dinner.

Mrs. Aram: Alright, dear. Freshen up, and I'll prepare dinner.

(Freen goes to take a shower, and during that time, she thinks about Siya, replaying that moment in her mind. She says to herself)

Freen: I don't know why I'm thinking so much about her. I've never thought this way about a stranger before. Well, let me stop overthinking. She's okay now.

(She finishes her shower, returns, and sits down for dinner with her mother. They have their usual meal and chat. Freen asks )

Freen: Mom, how is my brother feeling?

Mrs. Aram: He's doing fine... They were talking about the doctor's fees, dear.

(Actually, Mrs. Aram works as a nurse at the same hospital where their son is undergoing treatment.)

Freen: Mom, it's alright. I've asked for an advance salary from Principal Ma'am. She will give it to me this week. Just tell the doctor not to stop the treatment. I'll manage the finances somehow.

Mrs. Aram: I have full faith in you, dear. How's that student of yours? Um...what was her name?

Freen: Umm...Siya ......Siya Singhania!

Mrs. Aram: Yes, Siya , How is she doing now?

Freen: She's fine now, Mom. She's even better than before. She had a minor head injury, but she's fine now.

Mrs. Aram: That's good to hear, dear. And did they find out anything about the guy? Who was he?

Freen: Mom, he was Siya's ex-boyfriend. He came there with ill intentions. Siya's uncle said they would find him soon.

(They finish their dinner and wash up before heading to bed. Freen is about to sleep when she receives a message from Somsak .)

Somsak : Hey Freen! How are you?

Freen: Hey, I'm good. How about you?

Somsak: I'm fine, Freen... How's Auntie?

Freen: Mom is also fine.

Somsak : Hey, you have your week off at the restaurant tomorrow, right?.

Freen: Yeah, I do have my week off tomorrow. Why are you suddenly asking?

Somsak : I wanted to tell you something.

Freen: Sure, go ahead.

Somsak : I have a surprise for you tomorrow, and you must come for it.

Freen: What kind of surprise, Send?

Somsak : Well, you'll find out when you come, Freen, but promise me you'll come tomorrow evening.

Freen: Yes, I'll definitely come. But why such a sudden surprise?

Somsak : Why, don't I seem like someone who would plan a surprise for you?

Freen: It's not like that; I was just asking, Somsak

Somsak : The surprise is for a reason, and you'll know when you come, Freen.
