Here is my next installment:
chapter 14
It was Christmas day. It was a day of joy and celebrations. All the Christmas lights were sparkling at everyone's house. The Christmas trees were visible at each person's house despite the full tree cannot be seen in detail. Meanwhile, S opened her eyes to see a paper lying besides her bed saying:
"S, wish you a Happy Xmas. Downstairs awaits something special for you. From R"
S was in shock and pleased to see her beloved man had loved her so much and even cared about her too much. So she quickly went down to the living room to see near a Christmas tree a lovely big presents lying around the tree. In a hurry she opened the box very quickly. Fast like lightening if it just stuck a tree with horror and force grabbed R present. This was wrapped in red and lilac. It was large and soft and quickly opened to see a lovely cute teddy bear with a heart 'You are the one'. She was extremely pleased and constantly hugged the bear and gave numerous kisses for the teddy bear.
Meanwhile, M (who lived opposite her apartment) just woken up in a confused state, she was feeling extremely down. Just like if she had experienced a horrific dream as she opened her eyes so slowly. Usually she was happy during Xmas as there was nice dinner, lovely carols, and beautiful decorations as it was the most joyful festive moment. A note was left on the table:
"Hey M, Happy Xmas. I'm waiting downstairs for you. Sheeze you were speaking something and moving so much. If you going through a relationship. Anyways, come out of your bedroom. I have left you new clothes for you to wear. From Priya (your best friend and sister)" M was with joy looked, at the clothes and immediately worn it and came outside of the room and yelled, "Hey Sis! I'm so happy. You are here."
"I know dee. It's been so many years." Priya laughed
"What so many years. It's only been 4 months now." M giggled
P smiled, "Yeah, but it seems so many years da."
"I know." M says
P started to see something fishy with M. She wasn't the same bubbly girl as she was in the past. Often checking out every men along with P. She lost weight and has become so quiet and seemed like she has no one to share her feelings with. Suddenly, P told her the good news, "I am going to be married on Valentines Day."
"Who with Kishore? You met at University. God! How did he manage to fall in love with you? He's such a nerd.", laughed M
P complained, "Well we both proposed at the end of the degree and have been dating ever since. Mom and Dad first hesitated because of differences in culture and tradition. After meeting Kishore they totally loved him. Its an advantage we can speak his mother tongue Hindi."
"So sweet da. When I am going to meet b-i-l?" demanded M
P smiled, "I tell you soon." And she walked outside M's flat where she had to go somewhere.
M was happy her sister came however, she cried her heart out.
R was sitting outside in a confused state. He looked at a mess especially in a drunken state. Suddenly, there was a phone call from S and he answered the phone.
"Hi darling." S smiled, "Happy Xmas."
"Thanks." R smiled
S being sympathetic, "Listen I'm very sorry about last night."
"Listen S. I want to make something straight with you." R said in a stern way
