Only the two of us were left at home. I was praying to God that everything be alright. I really hope that mom survives and leads a happy life. In this tense state I unconsciously called up Sky. By the time I realised he had already picked it up. I gave an excuse for doubt in a problem. I asked about the copy and drawing instruments. He explained everything.
Finally I said, " Thanks a lot"
He replied, "Yeah, but is there anything wrong with you ? "
It was very difficult yet I hid it.I replied, "What? Nothing at all! "
He replied, "Oh okay. Bye"
"Bye.. "
After bidding goodbye I couldn't concentrate anymore. I started with the homework and completed studying. After that I called up Dad. He said mom needs to undergo saline. And would be in ICU for 3 days. She was responding but her visions left the place. She was acting as if drunk and unconscious.
After that dad hung up. Relatives, neighbours and others were calling me up. I took the responsibility on my shoulders a bit. But I didn't tell any of my college or school friends.
I kept quiet. And finally determined not to distract others.
I heated the food. Prepared tea. Then I finally gave Nikki to eat. After having our minimal breakfast I again called dad up. He was busy. Aunt called me up. She was blaming me for sleeping before mom. Actually if I hadn't slept mom wouldn't have been in dire straits as she is now.
I made up my mind not to fall asleep. Nikki was praying for mom to recover. I was praying for the same.
I kneeled down in an attempt to show sincerity.
I don't know what to do other than that.
Mom's eldest brother came. He was trembling but kept quiet. Dad was a bit more silent.
I served my maternal uncle a cup of tea and a mug of chocolate mom. had already been made for. us. He had it and remembered the sweetest of childhood memories. Soon we all left for the hospital.
