Urvi:

My head felt heavy as my eyes flickered open and sun shone brighter. I caught my head and looked around to find myself near the window, sitting on the floor. Yesterday's events flashed as a fresh memory in my mind. I somehow stood on my legs but immediately caught hold of the curtains. Bitting my lips and wetting it with my saliva, I took a deep breath and walked towards my cupboard to get ready for the day.

It's not like I cannot take a leave. It's just that I cannot afford to stay in here while I'm not feeling fine.

"Running away from my own house..sounds bad isn't it?" I chuckled.

"We need to talk." A voice which belonged to the person who gave me birth echoed in my ears that halted my steps towards the door. I was expecting this interruption a little sooner. Taking a deep breath, I slowly turned towards my parents who stood there along with my sister.

"Yes?" I, obviously, acted oblivious and took a step towards them.

"You had a boyfriend?" My father questioned.

"I have a boyfriend." I slowly corrected him, looking down.

"You are their daughter! Not a second option."

A voice suddenly rang in my ears and made me look immediately up.

"Why dint you ever inform us?" My mom again asked. My voice dint come out as the real reason dint seem appropriate enough to be told now.

"And how on the earth did you find a man like him?" I could literally see her drooling. I felt my jaw clenching at her mention.

"It's me whom you're talking about. Don't bring him in between." I strictly said, suddenly feeling a zero tolerance at his mention.

Reason?

404 error. Not found.

My dad, a little angrily said, "Watch your tone Urvi."

"I'm sorry." I meeked. "But don't bring him here. It's our matter what's going on. We met only a month ago and eventually fell for each other. That's it." Another lie.

My mom came towards me and held my hands, "Urvi, don't we have any right to know what's going on in your life? You need to think us as your friend kanna."

It felt so abnormal to listen these words from the person from whom it should've been a habit. I sighed and looked down, not feeling necessary to lie for a statement that I probably won't follow.

My hands were freed and my mom turned back.

"I'm taking your lea..." My voice trailed off as my mom said, "Come Ridha. Let's have breakfast." Oh!
