problems in MY society

Chapter 21

Rohan's P.O.V

Waking up I look around tiredly. Ugh..god, yesterday was such a waste of time. Why doesn't Nalini just listen to me!? Why does she have to be such a pain?!

I look to my right seeing that the bed is obviously empty since she's gotten up already to make breakfast. Why does she still care? She just needs to keep to herself.

Then I go to the bathroom to prepare myself for today then I go downstairs towards the kitchen.

"Umma! Don't worry I'll do it! You can sit down!"

"No ma! Since I'm here I'll help you. You don't even put the right amount of salt!"

I look at the two women bickering and laughing with each other. A wonderful mother, daughter relationship. How nice...

I look away painfully and sigh catching their attention.

"Oh Rohan! Come, come sit at the table you must be ready for your breakfast."

Nodding I slowly sit down at the table with a plate in front of me. I know I was quite...harsh talking about Nalini's mother but in reality, I could never drive a mother out of a house myself.

Mothers are amazing and beautiful and so,so essential to this world. Not just mothers but fathers too. Parents in general are so important..something I've always wanted.

I don't want another mother in this house. I just want Nalini's mother to leave but I can't bring myself to do it so I'll make Nalini do to instead.

Nalini has a weak smile on her face as she places about 4 idlys on my plate with some tomato chutney. Mmm...

One thing I approve about Nalini, is her cooking. She makes good food and tea, but I don't think I'll ever really tell her completely. But I would never get enough of her food either.

It's just she sticks her nose in everything. When she shouldn't.

"Rohan? Are you not hungry? Come on eat up!"

I blink rapidly as I get out of my thoughts and give a small smile and nod at Nalini's mother as I begin to eat.

She's so caring and nice. She is really treating me like her own son. As if she's my own mother. Unlike my so called 'mother' and 'father' at 'home' which treat me like trash.

Nalini also starts eating along with her mother they both continue to laugh and talk. Well...I feel left out. My face grows annoyed and I quickly finish getting up and putting the plate away. Then I walk off.

"Nalini, is everything okay with him? Go check on him."

"He's fine ma. For the past few days he likes to go back to the bedroom and uh...do work immediately. Yeah..uh work."

"O-oh...okay ma.."

I sigh, she's trying so hard to keep the situation out her mothers way. She's bound to find out Nalini..

Walking up the stairs I go to the bedroom and decide to talk to Vishal for awhile.

Rohan- Hey

Idiot- What.

Rohan- Well what's wrong with you then?
