My morning starts with a message tone.
It says 'salary credited' . Trust me.. this is the best message. Nothing else right now can make me feel better.
Smiling along with the bird chirping and tingling orangish rays of the morning sun, reality hits on my mind.
Rishab's school fees, House taxes, water bill, electricity bill, groceries, and mini home expenses. Yeah! I have to pay all of that. Smile fade away. I felt a heaviness over my mind , body and heart. It's not because of all this parenting thing, it's because of the responsibilities I have right now over my shoulder. Also... Sometimes, I feel a cold feeling about my capabilities. I don't how long I am going to lie to Rishab  about his parents.
.

I dropped Rishab at school and went towards the Bank. The work pressure is pretty light these days. Mr.Raval told me it's okay if I come to work after lunch. So I decided to do the bank works and other things when I got time.
.
As I got off from the auto infront of the bank, I saw Kunal. Coming out from the bank holding a big black suitcase.
He saw me and passed a big fresh smile towards me.

Heyy !!! How are you? He said that with a excitement.

I am fine.. thankx for asking Kunal.

So.. what brings you here?? He asked.

Ummm nothing special, some tricky paper works are left and it's needed to be done. So I am here for that.. my eyes fell on that big suitcase.
Out of curiosity I asked..
Whoa..that's a big suitcase Kunal..!!

He smiled hard and said..
Actually it's heavy too. Do you wanna know why?

Why?

He leaned his face near to my ears, covered his one side of his lips with his palm making sure no one can hear us , and he whispered...
Because it contains 10 lakh rupees. Raw notes..!! He slightly chuckled and moved his face away.
My mind started thinking that, exactly how many zeros are there in 10 lakh??

Ohh God Kunal. !! Did you hit a jackpot or what?? !!! And how did you manage to withdraw this much money at a one time? Even though it's not my money, my curiosity level is higher that anyone else right now.

Well.. I wish.. but this is not my money. One of friend suddenly hit some kind of jackpot I don't know, so she requested me to take this money from the bank, she is very sick right now. So.. I am just running an errand.

Wow.. Kunal is really a good friend. People trust him soo much. I kinda feel good that I know someone like him.

It's from the bank. I knew it they'll call me eventually. I received the call.
After the formal discussion they asked..

Sir, someone is here to withdraw 10 lakh rupees from your account. Should we proceed with the transaction?

I remained silent for a bit

Actually sir it's a huge amount and it's not you who is here to collect the money , that's why we are confirming.

So she did it finally. She took the blank check that day. Great..!! I knew it.
She is really good at acting.. any one can fell for that.
