CHAPTER 29

[Darshan]
The next day...
After Aditi went to her work, I headed back to my home. As soon as I reached home I heard mom asking, "Where is Aditi? ". "She has gone for her work", I replied flatly. "Work?? ", she echoed and I realised my mistake. I had promised her not to tell about it to anyone but... Aghh.... Why god why?? Now what shall I do? "Darsh, where are you lost, beta? I am asking you something.. Aditi has gone for which work? ", mom's voice evoked and I came back to reality. "Actually.. umm..umm.. Actually", I was stammering. "What actually? What umm? Say directly what you want to say.. ", mom said. "Oh yes.. Actually she has gone for some project work and from there she is going to visit some places for her to live and so she will be late... She has asked me to tell you.. And you know how obedient I am! ", I said dramatically towards the end. "Oh.. Can't you say this much clearly? ", mom scolded me. "Mom.. ", I groaned. "Okay... Okay.. Now go to your room and freshen up.. I will lay the food for you", she said adoring me. I smiled and went to my room. After freshening up, as I was moving down stairs, I felt an sudden urge to sneak into Adi's room. I went inside only to find it completely neat and clean, just opposite of my room. I went through her cupboards and closets. There were very few clothes in the closet, unlike every typical girl. She had very less commodities. I went through her drawer only to find the blue diary which she had asked me to stay away from. The first page was a bit messy and it seemed like a child of grade 3 or 4 has written it. But the writing was very deep for a child to write it. It said, "However dark it may be, a sun will always brighten up your life.. Till then you have to hold on the ray of hope". But as I went on reading, it turned out more and more negative. The last writing was, "A dark life should always be dark for if u hold on to a ray, you will yearn for more and at the end u will be ruined.. ". All that happened in her life was enough to break her down but it would break her in such a way!! I never ever expected that from my Alia Singhania. The world was and is under illusion of Alia Singhania's life story. I wanted to blurt it out.. But it was my responsibility to keep her promise and trust. I heard mom calling me which brought me back to the real world. I went down and then an idea struck me... She said that she had never ever had a happy moment with her family .. so here was my plan. "Mom... Should we go for shopping tomorrow? Tomorrow is a Sunday and it's been long since we have moved out together", I asked mom. "I guess.. That's a nice idea.. Ur dad will be back by today evening and tomorrow we can go ", she said and then I asked her, "Can we take Aditi with us? " , almost in a pleading manner. "Of course.. Is it a question to be asked? ",mom replied instantly. I exclaimed with joy and hugged her. Miss Aditi Verma, get ready for a very nice outing... A family outing... I just couldn't wait for tomorrow morning... I was bubbling up with happiness.

My shift ended at nearly 10... Well that was quite early.. But it's okay. I managed to meet my broker and see the apartments suggested. Nearly every apartment I saw was either at the outskirts or were near anti society. Exhausted I went back. I tried to sneak in quietly when the light of the living room glowed making me startle. I turned around to find uncle and aunty with their arms crossed standing in front of me. "What's the time? ", aunty asked. I looked at my watch to find that it was nearly 12.30 AM. "I said Darshan that I will be late.. Didn't he say you? ", I tried to cover up. "He said us that u will be late not very late..", uncle said and I fixed my gaze at the tiled floor. "Now don't stay quiet.. Did you have your dinner or not? ", aunty asked. "Umm.. Yes.. ", I lied coz I didn't want them to persevere for me again. "U can't lie.. So stop it ", I heard a voice from behind the parents and there was their son. All of them were awake for me!? Seriously?! So sweet of them... Aunty then pulled me to the dining table and flooded me with food... How lucky I am to get them and how lucky Darshan is to get such parents!!
