Romance The End of Restless Sleep- By Pinuram

[ddey333]

Days were passing blissfully. My empress took control over her roost. Graced every

corner of that dingy flat and made that place liveable again. On that evening, she called
my office and asked to pick her up from her college.

On the way return, I asked her, “Why what happened today?”
“Nothing as such. Today I had to attend the practical class. Moreover, Parineeta was
suspicious as we seldom meet at college. She was asking me as where do I go.”
“Hmmm...” I asked her, “How is Mufasa and auntie?”
“They are doing fine.” She then asked me, “Adi, you don’t talk about your dad much?
Why?”
The query shocked me, I asked in return, “You know everything, every part of my life
and even after that you want to dig my painful past?”
“No I mean to ask that your dad tried to call you and make amendment. Then Nilanjana
Madam also called you to wish on your birthday. It is not fair Adi. You should at least
revive what has been lost.” She answered in a calm voice.

However, I was not in a mood to carry on with that type of conversation, “What do you
want me to do? Why should I revive what was broken years ago? He did not cared for
me for such a long time and now he has a beautiful wife and a dear son fulfil his perfect
canvas of life. Why does he need me?”
She kept on with her usual calm tone, “I think they are repenting. You should talk to
your father.”
I chewed my words, “I don’t want to. I don’t believe that he has soul, he can’t repent.
Now he is happy to have a wife and who knows that that bitch might have rifted our
relation apart.”
She scolded me in a stern voice, “Don’t judge a book by the cover, Adi. You don’t know
anything about Nilanjana Madam so refrain yourself from spewing such ire.”

I was unable to understand as what made Titli to take Nilanjana Madam’s side. I asked
her, “What made you to take her side?”
She answered calmly, “I think she is a good lady. If she was not then she would not have
called you on your birthday.”
I fired again, “I don’t know her intention behind that phone call. But this much I can
fathom that they want me due to some reasons of their own.”
She spewed venom at me, “You can’t think straight that is your main problem. You don’t
have to do anything. You just give me Nilanjana Madam’s number. I want to talk to her.”
I was unable to understand as why she wanted to talk to her, “Why do you want to talk
to her? She is no one to me so she is no one to you also.”
She scolded me, “Don’t you argue with me anymore, just do as I say.”
“What has happened to you?” I asked her.
She said to me, “Nothing just give me the number. My fate is already bound to your
fate, so whatever comes to your life has to go through me first. I want to confront them,
for once before judging the truth.” She paused a little and giggled, “I have a little
brother in law. What is his name?”
“I don’t know his name. I never talked to him and I have not seen him either.” I
answered.

She was surprise to know that, she exclaimed, “WHAT? You are a perfect idiot. Even if
your dad has faltered or even if it was Nilanjana Madam’s fault but how come you kept
away from that puerile foal?”
