Two Of Us
I opened my wardrobe to get dressed up but there wasn't a single dress in there which wasn't new and branded. I still remember when I used to go shopping with mom and Riya, I had always wanted to buy branded clothes, now that I have them all I want to wear my old simple clothes which mom bought for me. I was feeling so broke. I just want to return back to them. just one day and I have started missing them to such an extent that I don't want to live anymore if I don't get to live with them. I took a deep breath and chose the most simple dress I could. I got changed up and headed downstairs.
as soon as I entered the living room everyone started looking in my direction. I sat on the couch quietly. I looked at every single being present in the room. "don't you think you owe me an explanation?"I finally broke the silence. " Tisha, we know our faults... we don't have any explanation. we know daddy and mommy have really hurt you. will please forgive us? will you give us a chance? we are ready to fulfil all your wishes just stay with us. we will not stop helping them." said my biological dad. I kept silence for a few seconds with a cold gaze at them. "Mr Oberoi, you still have face to call yourself my dad after abandoning me. Not only that, you even separated me from people I love. do you think I'm heartless? I feel like I'm just a toy for you to play with whenever you want to. Now that I have decided to be with you people, I have my conditions. if you don't fulfil them..." he agreed to it before I could even complete my sentence. "my conditions are......." I was about to announce but my 'father' interrupted " anything as long as are you willing to stay". I didn't say anything and was about to go out for a walk in the small garden made in our colony, mom stopped me, "you haven't eaten anything since morning, may I get something for you to eat?" "I don't have much appetite" I replied and left for a walk.
earphone placed in my ears, I quietly sat on a bench in the corner of the garden watching children playing. a small boy came towards me following his ball but suddenly stumbled upon a stone and fell down. he started crying in discomfort. I went to him and kneeled. "offo! don't touch your wound. let your sister clean it up for you. you such a brave boy..... I know you won't cry, will you? let your sister treat your wound and it won't hurt anymore." i tried to comfort him. till the time i was done with his wound, his elder brother came looking for him. "Jason! I was gone for a minute and look you have already hurt yourself.." I started laughing at him while patting Jason. " how can there be someone so damn cute like you on this earth!" I continued. " hello, I'm jake, Jason's elder brother. we are from America. thanks for taking care of him just now." jake said. " your welcome. I'm Tisha. hope we get along well." I introduced myself. "I'm sure we will!" both of us started laughing. "so....you are new here?" he asked. soon my heart got heavy with sorrow but i controlled myself from breaking apart and replied "yup". I got stuck in my thoughts. " everything...alright?" maybe jake noted the change in facial expressions but i just nodded.
