The next morning I woke up and collected my mail. My mom was coming back today so I thought of cleaning the house. I first started by scrubbing the kitchen and then sweeping the living room. 

By the time the time I reached my room, my stomach started rumbling. I woke Harry up and asked him to boil some rice after he was cleaned up. 

I was planning to make some dal rice so, I cooked my dal, and right before my mom came, I just finished plating the meal. 

"Ma! How are you?" I said as I opened the door. 

"Fine. How's Katherine holding up with you both?" my mother asked

"Oh shit! I forgot to pick her up." 

"Language, young lady." My mother warned. 

"Sorry. I'll go get her." I said and rushed to my car.

I drove to her friend's house and picked her up and brought back home, all within 15 minutes.

We all had a lovely dinner and just before bed, I was reading my mail. I got a letter with no name or address. Inside it was a printed letter which said,

"How long will you hide from me? You are and will be mine forever." 

I didn't tell anyone about the letter and went to bed with a million thoughts runs through my brain.
