Bani served lunch to jigs and Adi..jigs kept making comments on the food tasting like…this or that
…Adi warned her not to say anything ..Jai didn't say anything either.
They went to work…
Bani was home alone …Tony had gone out…she needed rest ….she went to her room …
cleaned her room..the cloths that jai had dropped on the floor…she put it back in the suitcase…..
She lay in the bed…..
She was a girl who need ed any little happiness she could get. but she didn't show it. she never saw any thing bad about anyone else…
............even people were mistreating her ..she only remembered the good part or ignored that they were bad … but one person she couldn't forget……….
it was too terrible for her….
She was dreaming now…. flashes from her past. Came back to her…
She woke up screaming….she was breathing heavily…sweating….
.tears in her eyes.
she couldn't stay in room alone…she ran downstairs…she looked all the directions all she could see was face…
.......from her past…to the left or the right…she could see her past….
The door bell rang…she was freaked..
She yelled go away..
Then she heard Anu's voice saying Bhabhi its me Anu…BHAbhI…
Bani came to her senses….Bani looked at the time….it was around 6pm . Bani wiped her face with the sari palu and opened the door
Anu came in'..
Anu said hey to Bani and went to her room…
Anu came down after a few minutes changed…
Bani-"sit down. I'll give u something to eat.."
Anu-"no Bhabhi..im going t o the library will; eat outside.."
Bani-"library…fine…but at least eat something.."
Bani gave her an apple for the fruit basket.
.Anu took it said goodbye and went..
Bani looked out …outside…Anu sat in a jeep. . There were 2 guys in the jeep and Anu alone…. Bani knew better..Anu was not going to the library…
Tony came soon after and Bani helped Tony in cooking diner,..
The doorbell rang …Bani opened it. It was Jai.. Jai didn't even look at her. Saying that dad had told him to tell Bani that he and Jigs were going to be late….Jai went upstairs..
Bani went back in the kitchen.. …thinking what a husband and wife they were,,,she had so many wonderful dreams about getting married with someone who loved her….he would understand her …
.and ..she finally would find someone she could trust..all her life after her parents died. she lived in vain…she was surrounded by bad pple but she never uttered a word against them…
they were the only family she had………..she couldn't do anything now….
Masi came but went to sleep coz she was too tired
