"There are two things in it. The first one is you have not heard the songs except that birthday song and the second one is your taste in music is so bad. I mean how could the birthday song be someone's favorite song. Okay, tell me where you heard this birthday song?"
"I heard it when I first toured to the earth to see you. The master permitted me on my saying."
"To see me..!?"
"Yes. To see if you are safe and fine."
"How old were you when you travel to the earth for the first time?"
"I was...I think forty-nine or fifty-two."
"Forty-nine or fifty. How old was I then according to earth?" Felsen starts calculating his age by kneading his chin.
"Forty-nine divided by..."
"Yes, I remember. I was fifty. I am sure now, I was fifty."
"Okay. Fifty divided by...!" Felsen continued his calculation in his kind.
"You were ten then," Brick talked while Felsen was calculating.
"Woo, you are fast in maths. I am good at algebra but it took me time to solve this," Felsen was amazed.
"I am not good at anything you said. It was your tenth birthday when I wandered there. I was looking at you from the kitchen window."
"You were in our kitchen!!!" Felsen frowns.
"Yes, I was also celebrating your fiftieth birthday. Yes, you were little as a kid but do you believe you were a fifty-year-old man in a child's body."
"It is so difficult and weird to understand. I was turning ten and was celebrating my tenth birthday but my real age was fifty."
"Yes..!! but why did you say like this."
"Like what..?"
"Like, "you were in the kitchen!!"Brick acted like Felsen.
"This is because I could not forget my tenth birthday."
"But...why. Did anything happen that day?" Brick inquired with a questioning face.
"Yes. I do not know if you know about this or not but I think when you left after the celebration we heard a noise from the kitchen and it was a loud voice. As a kid, I got shocked by a sudden loud voice but my mom and dad told me that it may be a cat don't be scared. Let's see inside. And when we reach inside and saw the kitchen we got stunned because a cat can not do such a huge disaster. Our kitchen was almost destroyed. The stove and the faucet and our crockery everything was broken."
"Aaa!! so that is the thing I did wrong. Actually, I am sorry I felt I did something wrong but I did not know that I did such a big thing. It was my first time to travel and you know...!" Brick apologizes for his doing.
"Yea!! yeah!! it is fine. I can understand. You say sorry and everything is correct now. Nothing bad happened. We just spend a huge amount to renew our kitchen," Felsen talked and lay down with a blanket upon him. Hiding his smile under his blanket so that Brick does not come to know that he is teasing him.
"Felsen...!" as Felsen thought of doing it happened as Brick took his words seriously.
"I said it was my first time, do not behave like this I am saying that I am sorry," Brick talked with worried eyes. Felsen was silent in his words and was laughing under the blanket.
"Felsen..! I said I am sorry," Brick loudened his voice a little and tried to uncover him.
"Felsen...!" while doing his best to get him out of his blanket, Brick conversed.
"Look at you," at last when Felsen failed to control his laugh he came out of his blanket himself and chuckled.
"Aa! look at yourself in the mirror." Felsen continued his laughing.
"Was that too much of a big amount that you spend?"
"No...! I was just kidding. Yes, we indeed renew the kitchen. We paid for it but it was not that big amount. My parents can afford that easily."
"I was feeling bad. But it was my first time."
"Yes, it was your first time but I want to request you that next time do not hide in the kitchen because you are a big body now. You can ruin our whole kitchen," Felsen while laughing and forgetting for a minute about what is going on in his life said.
While he was saying Brick got his words and became sad for him. Felsen also gets sad when he realizes after seconds what he just said. There was an awkward silence after this for a whole minute and then Felsen talked,
"It..is night now we should sleep," Felsen said and smiled.
Brick also smiled back and stepped down from the bed.
"The tea was good. I am feeling good now," Felsen passing him the cup said.
"You will be totally fine until tomorrow morning," Brick took the cup from him and said. "See you tomorrow." Brick spoke and took the Path out of the room.
"Felsen, are you alright?" Before Brick stepped out of the room, he turned around and asked Felsen.
"Yes, I am fine," Felsen smiled, and after, Brick left.
"Next time do not hide in the kitchen as you are a big body now," Felsen's words were in Brick's mind when he chooses his path to the kitchen.
"I hope he is fine!!" Brick whirled around and peek at his room.
"Next time do not hide in the kitchen as you are a big body now," Felsen was in his blanket and got into tears.
"Can I come in?" Luc opened the door of Lenna's room after knocking.
"Yes, you can get in," Lenna mumbled while doing his work.
"Are you fine?" Luc entered the room and took slow steps toward her.
"Why are you asking?" Lenna continued doing her work under her table lamp.
"Because I am your brother and I am worried about you. You are so silent these days and upset. You are acting like a stranger as if you don't know any person around you. You walk around in college like a dead soul and everyone sees it."
"So you are here because you are ashamed that I walk around like a dead soul."
"What are you saying this? How could you even think that I am here for it? I am here because I am worried," Luc loudened his pitch because he turned a little unhappy.
"Thank you for worrying about me," said Lenna while keep doing her work.
"What are you doing this? Why are you behaving like this? You are misbehaving with others for a person who is not here, who is lost. Since when did he become this important," Luc shouted at her.
"Luc! stop it here," Lenna got affected by Luc's words and she stopped her hand from writing in the notebook.
"Yes, I am saying the same. Stop it here forget what happened and live in your presence with the people before they leave forever."
Luc's words touched Lenna's heart and she stood up.
"I don't know when Felsen take this place in my life when he became this important but... what you are saying is also right. Don't worry I will try to behave normally," Lenna bursts into tears after facing Luc.
"Everything will be fine don't cry," Luc gave her sister a protective hug and comforted her with his words.
"He will be back. He was never a bad boy. He was always a good boy. It was my vision to see him like that because of what our mom did with us," the time Luc mentioned his mom his eyes became wet.
"You should also forget the dark memories and enjoy life with the rest of the members. Dad and our big brother with me and my sister-in-law and little angel in our family," Lenna said and smiled.
"You are right. I am feeling sleepy now I am going into my room you should also sleep now it is almost midnight."
"Ok," Lenna nodded and Luc thus stepped out of Lenna's room.
After he came out Lenna went to sleep. Luc smiled when he turned around and saw the light of her room turned off it means she obeyed him and went to sleep.
"I hope you will wear this tomorrow," the time when Lenna gifted Felsen a tie in the canteen the day before the ball lurk into her mind.
"Good morning, Ron," the time Ron perched on his seat, Luc walked to him and sat beside him. "What happened why are you so surprised?" Luc acted frankly to delight his mood.
"Are you alright?" Ron frowned at his behavior.
"Of course buddy," Luc smacked his bicep and smiled.
"I understand. You are not well. Sure the fever has traveled to your head," Ron opened his book band got lost in it.
"What are you reading this?" Luc tried to take his book but Ron did not give but.
"Ok," Luc nodded and snatched the book from his hands.
"Aaaa! this boring science and its boring experiments," Luc shut the book after a few seconds.
"What do you think should we go to the canteen now? Are you not feeling hungry?" Luc placed his arm around his shoulder and smiled after finishing his words. He tried his best to turn his mood from sad to normal and for this, he spend his whole day with him.
