73

As much as she wanted to return to work, Marianna insisted that she should stay at home and take rest because she doesn't want her post-traumatic stress to affect her work.

She stayed home all day long, read books, watched tv, ate in time and slept as well,......she was annoyed because her mommy dear was continuously fussing over her ever since she arrived.

and there's still no call, no message from him, she didn’t wanna admit it that she kind of liked all the grovelling he was doing and she was pissed!

she sighed, she had nothing to do......absolutely nothing at all.

She was bored, sulked in her room all the long.

It was already 7 p.m.....she looked up at the clock

will he come here at all ?

or whatever happened last night and then in the morning was the moment of their final departure!

Is that it ?

She hopped out of her bed and opened her bedroom door when suddenly she heard voice coming from downstairs. She frowned and wondered who had come at this time.

Curiousity won and she dashed out of her room only to see all her friends - Yohan, Natalie, Cole, Marianna were busy laughing and joking with her parents.

Ezekiel came too.

Her mom had prepared variety of snacks and tea for them

''কি.... ঘুম হলো ?"
[ well rested ?] Her mother asked looking at her affectionately

"Huh!.....yeah!" She replied still confused why all of them came here in her house together, "I'm......good"

She is pretty sure it's not just a simple get together

''good afternoon Caterpillar!'' Ezekiel  greeted as he got up all smiling from his seat and gave a light kiss on her lips, others simply looked away with a giddy smile

Ezekiel King has bipolar disorder, it's official __ Mayur thought

''চলো ঠিক আছে! তোমরা বসে গপ্পো সপ্পো করো আমি যাই! ফেরদৌসি, আমি আর তোর বাবা একটু বেরোচ্ছি, ডাক্তারের appointment আছে!

সময় মতো খেয়ে নিবি, do not forger to eat Mayu, কাজের লোককে বলা আছে, সময় হলে বেড়ে দেবে....and all of you must have dinner before leaving"

[ well,that's good! You guys have fun. I , Ferdousi and your baba....we're going out, appointment with her gynecologist.....they'll do ultrasound today..... Noyon excitedly said pointing at her sister

[ Have dinner in time, i instructed maids, they'll serve just in case we are late ] Noyon said and left with Alec and Ferdousi

as they left, Mayur proposed that they should go out and sit at the bonfire place.....as it was getting dark.

"old habit die hard" Yohan muttered and scoffed but Ezekiel heard him,......and frowned....old habit ?

''bonfire and booze! Let's go'' Cole jumped up only for Nalini viswakumar, his girlfriend to roll her eyes ''no booze....you had enough of that already"

Mayur noticed that Yohan plopped beside Natalie and put hand around her shoulder and pulled her closer to him but that didn't surprise her a bit.

Not at all!

She knew he always had a thing for her, and he was just making it known infront of everyone now

What surprised her is Natalie's glowing face,......she has put on weight recently!
