I slowly step inside the house.

Mom wasn't in the living room.Even yasir wasn't there.It's 7:30 and everyday mom watches her hindi serials and yasir completes his homeworks sitting in the sofa in this regular time.

I slowly sit in the sofa and start untying my heels.I again look around the house to see if anyone was there,but it was totally empty.

Both mom's and yasir's door were shut.Only my bedroom's door was opened.

I get inside my room and lock it from inside.

I freshen up within a few minutes and decide to study as I haven't studied for a week,since I'm admitted in the new school.

Those alien creatures whom I call my 'friends' do not believe in anything except from parties and fun!! But at least I know life involves greater things than all these,and I can't change my own self top-to-toe just because I'm in a new school...

Half an hour later,I could hear some footsteps outside my room.To be honest it is kinda creepy!!

I mean,I don't personally believe in ghosts or spirits,but it can be any thief or something.Or worse,JINNS do exist!!

Suddenly someone holds the door knob of my room!

Oh god! Oh god! Oh god!

The door opens.

Okay......it's yasir! It's quite evident from his face he has visited almost all cafes of Banani area to search for me.I let out a sigh of relief!

He leaves the door half-opened, turns back and states with a sern expression,'Apu's studying.You suspected her without any reason.'

He said in a really low voice,still I properly heard what he said! I still pretended to study anyways.

Mom enters the room with a really sweet smile and sits in my bed,with three shopping bags held in her hands.

How was your day ammu? She says with a motherly-care smile.

Like really??? She stalked on me the entire day,I lost my favourite earrings while hiding and under the table, my hands got crushed by Ishika's stilletos (seven inch heels) mistakenly.

And now she asks how was my day??

She is damn inspired by ishita,from the serial yeh hai mohabbatein,I bet on my life! Or even awesome,Jaya bachchan from Kabhi khushi kabhie gham.

'Good,mom.Are you done with your monthly stalking?'

Oops!I should control my mouth!

'I mean,shopping?'

'Baby I've got some gifts for you.Wanna check?'

Oh god! She is now inspired from gopi!!

I check the boxes.Okay...she got me a headphone I begged her for weeks, and a new phone cover.

Later yasir calls me outside and on the dining table,a huge size premium pizza from pizza hut was arranged in a plate.It was my favourite!

I was full,still I ate it for mum's sake.Dad also joined us as he returned from the office.

I know she and yasir both love me a lot,though they will never express it.

I thank her but for ask for the special reason for all these.But she replies that it's just random.

Somewhere I know,she gifted me all these out of guilt....guilt for not trusting me.

But there's a reason for this...my elder sister.Well...I don't wanna remember all this now.

Bad memories should be let go.

Later at night,when mom and dad went to bed,yasir entered my room.I was still studying.

Yasir..wanna say something? I mutter,still looking at my Science text book.

He holds the dazzling black earring piece I lost in the cafe in front of my eyes.Omg!!!He knows everything!

'Under the table??Really apu??' Yasir says and smirks.

My face turns red in embarrasment.

'Your friends are really cool,I must accept' He hands me the earring piece.

My whole face turned pale.I was left utterly speechless.

'No need to worry.I won't tell mum anything.'

He walks out of the room.

He is the best brother in the world!!!

Hey readers!!

Sorry for a really boring chapter....Tap the vote button only if you liked it.

I needed to emphasize on aha's family as she is the main lead.School and home both are equally important actually.

Anyways Insha Allah interesting things on the way!
