He walked upstairs to wake his daughter, he can imagine the sight he will be received by in her room. Giving feeble Knock on door in-case she's indeed up, but even he knew she won't be. Twisting the door knob he open the door and stepped inside, the entire Room was mess, books files, laptop were scattered on couch, while cellphone was lying near bed on floor, with headphones at other side. lays chips packet, ice-cream cups , were scattered on floor here and there. While his daughter was sleeping soundlessly but very carelessly, the angle she was in it was hard to locate head and foot.

"That's alright"! Then I have to leave"! I'm late for my meeting with my friends"! Have good day Mom Dad Love you bye"!..
(Taking the apple from basket instead, of having her breakfast she got up from chair to leave straight away, before they could say anything, she was out of their eye-sight. Prithvi exhale a sigh, Their daughter doesn't seems to have an expectation from her mother, even though she love both of them equally, more than her life).
"You could told her you will try"!
"Didn't wanted to gave her false hope"! you know my Job and way Prithvi"!
"Yeah as always"! Your way which speak "Better to gave slap with truth then kiss with lie"! Never mind let's go"!..
(Saying this he got up from chair to keeping the newspaper on table, Gaytri stared at him for long minute then inhale sharp intake of breath. Not having anything to say, She have a duty which demand attention from her and most of her time. She cannot make a false promise either, she doesn't regret but surely she missed to live her life, Like any other civilian be part of her Daughter achievement and Her husband time. But the Profession she's in the more high position she get on the more responsibility come on her shoulder. Something's can't be balanced no matter how much you try, you will miss something and other surely).
