Eid Mubarak to all 🤗
Here is the update. This is an important part of the story. The base of the story I should say.
Part 5
It was a beautiful morning. Sky was clear. There was no snow fall. Rishabh woke up to find the house in complete silence. He got up from bed and went outside the room, Madhu n Mallik were nowhere to be seen.
He freshened up and was now roaming in the house. Since the storm has settled down so phone would be in a working state. He got up to search for one. He thought they must have a land-line or something . He checked for the telephone.
This house was big enough for the members living in it. He had not actually seen the whole house.There was no telephone in the living room. So he went to a room beside the kitchen. The room had nothing but a bed and a small cupboard. He closed the door and went checking for another room which was upstairs. He opened to find the room quite bigger than the other he visited. There was a bed, an almirah and a study table and also a book shelf. The walls were plain however there was a photo frame on the table which was slightly tilted. He moved forward to see the picture clearly. A young man with big brown eyes, one can see mischief in those eyes, was smiling broadly in the picture. Rishabh recognized the man in the photo at once. He was shocked. How this man's photo is in this house?
There was a click on the door, Madhu came into the house. Rishabh shut the door and came downstairs.
"Oh you woke up",Madhu said closing the door behind her.
"Mallik?", Rishabh asked seeing that nobody was coming behind her.
"Oh since the weather is now somewhat clear Papa has gone outside for some walk."
"Oh um okay", Rishabh said now looking outside the window.
"Had u freshen up?"
"Yeah" Rishabh said turning towards Madhu.
"Okay then You wanna have breakfast or tea before that?
"Breakfast will be fine"
Rishabh move towards table and Madhu brought his breakfast.
"You won't eat?" Rishabh asked seeing that she hadn't brought breakfast.
"No actually I am not in mood", Madhu said.
Rishabh didn't know what to say next. From past few days he was getting suspicious of Madhu's behavior. He found it really unpleasant that Madhu doesn't talk to him much. He had thought that she was a reserved girl and then he had a conversation with Mallik. He got to know about her "dislike" for army people. Rishabh was very proud of his profession. Profession was not a good word to describe what he does. Serving country is not a "profession". The word "duty" will do good. And now he saw that picture. He had so many questions in his mind. So many things he wants to know.
Before he could open his mouth Madhu spoke , "You wanted to inform ur HQ don't you? Well the weather is clear now n I checked that the telephone is working well. You can make a call"
Well Rishabh had not forgotten to make a call. There was some other thing in his mind. He said nothing but, "Right".
Madhu stood up and took the plates to the kitchen.
"Where is telephone?"
"It is over there in Papa's room." She pointed a room which was in a corner. Surprisingly he had not seen this room before.
He went and dialed a number.
After few minutes he came out finding Madhu coming downstairs. Rishabh went to the living room and Madhu followed him.
"Rishabh"
Rishabh looked at her. This was the first time she has addressed him like that.
She said "..is there anyone whom do u miss?"
Rishabh stared at her. He could clearly see the pain in those beautiful eyes. After a minute or so..he turned his back towards Madhu and spoke "There are so many people I miss Madhu" after a pause he said " my job is like that.."
There was a change of expression on Madhu's face. She was also staring at Rishabh.
