Next morning, Haseena got up with puffy red eyes. Probably she cried all night. Afterall, realising that someone is hurt because of you is painful. She got down of her bed and was about to move towards the bathroom when her alerted with a message popping sound.
She looked at her phone and walked towards it. As soon as she picked up the phone other message popped up. It was from Anubhav. She checked her call log and found 50+ calls from both Anubhav and Karishma including 100+ messages. Ofcourse they must be concerned for her as she hadn't attended any of their calls since last afternoon.She pressed her fingers on Karishma's name to call her, the ring went 7 times and the call ended. It was no answer. Maybe she is busy getting ready for the school. Meanwhile another message from Anubhav pooped.
Haseena immediately opened his message section."Haseena mujhe tension ho rahi hai. Please ek baar call karlo."
Haseena huffed. She was about press the call button to call him but he himself called from the other side, seeing the blue tick that indicated him that she finally saw his message. It was a Video call. Haseena picked it.
She brought the phone before her face smiling lightly.Haseena: Good Morning.
Anubhav: let's go to hell with the good morning. Haseena kal se itne calls, itne messages kar chuka hu. Ek ka bhi reply nahi diya. Kya hua? Mujhse...mujhse kisi baat pe naraz ho?
Haseena noded her head negatively.
Anubhav: meri kisi baat ka bura laga?
Haseena: nahi baba.
Anubhav: toh hua kya hai Haseena? Aur...aur ye tumhari ankhe kyu suji huee hai? Ro rahi thi kya?
Haseena: mai aaj apke ghar aa jau? Mai aj wapas yaha nahi ana chahati.
Anubhav looked at her pale face and the tears that formed after that sentence. He didn't find appropriate to speak about the topic immediately. So he kept aside the topic and noded his head.
Anubhav: aj tum mere aur Karishma ke saath Ghar aa jana.
Haseena noded.
Haseena: mujhe... school ke liye ready hona hai. Rakhu?
Anubhav noded his head. He so felt the urge to peck her forehead and console her but he felt helpless.
She ended the call and went to get ready.After half an hour when she came out she heard some noises from the living hall, but she ignored and continued with her work. She got ready, arranged her bag and went out to find Karishma sitting there on the sofa.
Haseena: Karishma tu?
Karishma: suprise! Jaldi ready ho gaiee thi isiliye socha tujhe suprise de du.
Haseena smiled lightly.
She looked at her father working on the kitchen platform with apron in his neck.Abbu: Good Morning Bacche.
Haseena noded her head.
Haseena: Good Morning Abbu. Ammi mai jaa rahi hu.
Abbu: are ruko Haseena. Beta tumhara favourite shirkhurma banaya hai. Tumhe mere haath ka pasand hai na? Kha ke jao.
Haseena: Abbu shukriya par ...subha subha meetha kahugi toh class mein neend ayegi.
