Deepu's POV:
I stirred in my sleep hearing the ringing sound of my phone. With sleepy eyes I saw that my mom calling. I am so lazy now to answer the phone & listen her blah blah blah.... So I kept it in silent & continued stirring in my bed. Suddenly I felt guilty for not attending her phone as I didn't talk to her from mrng after coming to hyd.

So I got up & it's 6:00pm. I quickly went to freshen up bcz if I call my mom with this sleepy voice she will scold me regarding my odd timings to sleep..😉😉 After I got freshen up I called my mom.

Mom: Deepu, how r u? Is everything alright there? R u still in hsptl? Why didn't pick up my call?

Me: Ayyoo..Amma!! All questions at a time . Give me time to answer. I am fyn ma. Uncle has arranged everything here. I am not in hsptl. I came @ 4:00 PM frm hsptl. Actually I slept after coming so I didn't pick up ur call

Mom: U slept now. Is this the time to sleep? Now u will be awake till late nyt & end up waking up late tomorrow. How many times should I tell u. ( I said na 😁 my mom's reaction 😂😂)

Me: I am tired ma plzz
Mom: ok ok I will stop. cook something for dinner. Don't order in Zomato / swiggy. Ok how was ur day

Me: ok ma I will cook. My day was super. I learnt a lot from Dr.Bharadwaj. U know he is very famous doctor in the city. I may miss so much knowledge frm him if I didn't come here.

Mom: ok I am so glad that u r happy. But plz think about marriage

Me: amma don't bring that topic again. Its not that easy to give his place to any other man. By the way how is surya? When will be going for his job?

Mom:He is fyn. He is going within 2 days . Ur dad is asking u to take care.

Mom understood my disinterest in that topic & she don't want to upset me so she dropped the topic for now.

Me: ok amma. Bye Take care & take ur medicines time to time ( my mom is diabetic & hypertensive)

I disconnected the call & felt sad remembering him . But I composed myself & went to kitchen to look whats there to cook. I love cooking . It's my stress burster.
As it is 1st day I didn't have full groceries I took onions & eggs and limited my dinner to Rice & Egg burji.

After eating dinner I unpacked all my stuff & arranged it in my cupboards. I took my books & read the topic assigned by Dr.Bhardwaj. As I slept in evng I can complete topic otherwise I will get sleepy within 10mins after opening book. Sometimes I wonder how I finished my MBBS & MD !!

Its 11:00pm now. I took my phone & opened his pic & all the memories we spent together flood in my mind. How we study together, cook together,our laughs, silly talks. Instantly a tear sprung from my eyes. He hates my tears. I wiped my tears ,closed my eyes & his smiling face came to my mind & with a smile I drifted into sleep.
