" ok, dad. bye "
I started to drive.
After 3 hrs driving, I finally arrived at the destination...
When I entered I saw my mom sitting on the garden bench with a cup of tea in her hand.
I spoke up " Hi mom ".
My mom saw me and didn't have any reaction on her face. she said " Good morning Risa, you came at stepfathers. Your stepfather's nephew came today. "
She kept the cup on the table and took my hand and we entered the house.
my mom said, " hubby, see who came ."
uncle saw me and cheerfully said" good to see you, Risa. how are you?"
" Hi, uncle. I am good and how is your health now"
" ya. I am fine nowadays. This is your first time to see my nephew, I think. Come and greet him."
I saw the person who was sitting on the couch. I was angry after seeing the person who I hate the most. " hello elder brother. " with a fake smile I told him.
After hearing my reply, he took his earphone and his eyes moved up from his phone screen.
"Ahhhhhh.... how can y-you be here?" with a confused face he told.
uncle asked " you two both know each other? "
I said " ya. uncle, he is my classmate. "
" Oh. ok, then I don't have to introduce yourself to you guys. "
We four chatted a lot. My mom talked about my childhood and that i***t was laughing at all the things.
My first mission was to admit him to a good mental hospital.
while we were having our lunch. Carlos was seated across me. He was continuously staring at my face, his phone, his lunch, again my face, his phone, his lunch. He was doing the same thing continuously. without eating anything. My mom saw this and asked him what happened.
" nothing aunty."
After lunch, I went for a walk in the garden. Suddenly, my secretary, Mr Edmin called me. while I was staring at my phone as I was in the thought of attending the call or not. I felt something heavy on my shoulder. I quickly hung up the call and looked at my back. It was Carlos. I asked, " what you want?"
Before he opened his mouth to answer, I made him shut up by saying." sorry to disturb you from your walk and bye." I began to walk towards my room. I told my mom that I will be in my room if she wants anything she can call me.
when I entered the room. I locked the door .and gave a call to Mr Edmin. when he attended the call. I yell " you know my schedule when you have to call and when you are not. "
" Sorry, Ma'am"
" Now say what happened?"
he said in a scared tone " ma'am, we lost..... our...... project module for Saturday's meeting."
I yelled " WHAT? you know clearly, we have been working for up to 7 months to get the project in our hand."
"ma'am...."
" tell me which project module was lost ."
" second.....ma'am.."
After hearing the answer I was frustrated because the second module was the best of all five modules. As all the Project modules have two copies but only the second module project doesn't have a second copy. I said" that was the best project we had. Okay then do according to my plan. "
I continued and started to explain my plan to him and I told him " tell all the workers that we are taking the first project module as the final for the meeting ."
" ok, ma'am. you don't have to worry about it. I won't make you lose your face "
I hung up the call and went out of my room. while opening the door I saw Carlos standing in front of the door...
I don't know how much he heard. I didn't ask him anything.
I went downstairs and said to my mom and uncle " I am leaving mom and uncle "
uncle said " Risa stayed here for one night." my mom also nodded.
but I refused them " No way uncle and mom. tomorrow I have classes to attend. so I can't stay here."
they both said " ok. but be careful while driving."
" ok. bye everyone "
I started to drive towards the beach. after 1 hr, I reached my destination. I went to the seashore and sat on the sand and started to admire the beauty of nature. From childhood, I love admiring the water, sand, and sky. But now admiring the seashore became my worst dream forever in my life from that day but still, it helps me with my mood. I looked at the sky. Slowly a drop of saltwater from my eye slid on my cheek. I don't know when the time flies. I saw the sky was getting dark.
so I again started to drive and finally, I came to my house after having my dinner on my way. I saw the time it was 10: 00 pm. I texted my mom that I reached the house safely and I went to my room without glancing at my surroundings
