damn it... its not shutting down. "Ok Meeya, there is no time to waste" I panicked. All I could do is run for my life. And I ran. Ran upstairs to her room in which I'm sharing.
"I am so tired! I will take shower and rest first Akbar. My brains hurt from teaching students all day." she complained as rattling sound of her keys can be heard across the hallway as she throws them across the marbled dining table.In my heart, I prayed that she should be too tired to notice any differences in the area and walk past the mistake I had made earlier.

OI COME HERE AND OFF YOUR COMPUTER! HOW MANY TIMES MUST I TELL U TO OFF AFTER PLAYING GAMES" she yells furiously. Don't misunderstand this to her actually being angry at Syadeek. This is what you call LOVE in many ways. Oh boy, if she had thought it was me that used the computer, it would have been a totally different treatment. Trust me.

"Yes Amma?" I asked politely. You don't wanna awaken the fallen angel.
