Madhavi is pacing restlessly in hall, Sunil who is reading a book was watching her pace out of corner of his eye.
Madhavi:- Wonder where Ashutosh is , today he is late.
Sunil closes his book and says Relax, he is not a kid , he will come home.
M:I know he is not a kid, but Ashutosh is never late. He is always punctual, and hewould never miss having dinner with us, and I have this very weird feeling that...
Before she could continue her sentence S cuts her off saying
S:- oh dont u go there, dont, u n ur worries. U know Ashutosh , he must have got stuck in work and have lost track on time other wise he would have surely called up home, nothing new with
that after all its shan he never sleep unless he completes his work, u should know that. he did it many times when he was working on his project work in his college days .
Just then Ashutosh
parks his car in garage and enters house , M is relived to see ashutosh .
M:- Oh thanks god there u r , in a scolding tone what took u so long , we were so worried about u .
Sunil corrects her by saying its not we Madhvi , its U dont drag me into this ..
Madhavi gives a stern look at S, S pretends to read his book.
M:- why are u so late Ashu , i was so worried ??
Ashutosh:- sorry for being late mom , i was stuck with work n was in traffic jam too ...
M:_ stuck with work ( in a scolding tone) couldnt u have called up? u have no idea how worried i was and before she says anything else Ashutosh just ends hugging her and says ur worlds best mother
M:- ok fine fine stop buttering me, now off u go to ur room change ur self and come soon we are starving here ...
Sunil and Ashutosh exchange a slight smile before ashutosh goes to his room...
After 5mins Ashutosh comes down and family gather for their dinner ...
M in a worried tone, ashutosh why arent u eating , are u ok son ??
Ashutosh oh mom i am fine , just not feeling like eating , very tired and want to catch up with sleep
Sunil dont push urself son ,if ur not feeling like eating , then dont , have ur milk and go to bed ...
Before M could interupt Ashutosh says GN n leaves
M:- whats wrong with u, he is becoming thin day by day n u just let him go to sleep with empty stomach .
S :-u cant push him to eat when he is not feeling to , and more over he had few bites of fruits and had his milk now dont go so worried about him , give him some space and one more thing he is healthy but to ur eyes he will look thin ...
M wants to add further but stops herself when she realises its waste to tell anything to him .
Ashutosh goes to sleep with in secs of hitting his bed , he had very hectic day all he needed was some sleep without disturbance...
Around 11pm
Ashutosh stirs in his sleep with continous vibration of his cell, he picks it still in deep sleep and without glancing at number
Other person just says meet me near Downtown pub in another half and hour saying this call gets disconnects .
Ashutosh jumps from his sleep, his mind is trying process the information. what did the other person just say ,meet me in half an hour near down town and more imp the voice, wasnt it ?? wasnt it ??
Ashutosh with a huge smile on his face , throws a pair of jeans and T shirt and rushes out of his room towards his car as if his tiredness and sleep went
