BROKEN BIRTHDAY AND THE BOY : PART 3
She put the cake inside bridge and sat on sofa. She tried to talk to Mr. Subramanian but he did not pick her phone. But he replied with a messaged, "I am still in a meeting. I will call you later." She felt angry and put the phone on sofa. She reminded that her friend Akansha went to her parents home to celebrate her birthday. There were so many people to decorate the house and to cook different cuisines. She enjoyed a lot. But Mrs. Parul? She was alone. She did not have one to cook neither to decorate the room for her.
She picked the bag and put out the things she took from market. She started decorating angrily. Her phone rang. She rushed to pick. She thought, it would be Mr. Subramanian's call. She saw and felt the happy but it was not Mr. Subramanian's call. It was her mother's call.
She said, "Hello, Mamma."
Her mother, "What are you doing beta?"
She said, "I am decorating my room, mamma."
Her mother said, "Did Mr. Subramanian still not come?"
She said, "No mamma, I’m alone."
Her mother said, "Let me talk to Mr. Subramanian."
She said, "No mamma, you will not talk to him. He is busy in his meeting with international client."
They talked for a while. Mrs. Parul again started decorating the room. She sat on the table for a while. She was very sad. She was not angry on her hubby nor she want to fight with him. Her hubby spoiled her birthday. He spoiled all her dreams for this day.
She left all her expectations and dreams. She did not have any idea about when would her hubby come. So, she thought to cook food for dinner. She wanted to eat chilli paneer, fried rice, naan, sweets and ice cream in a restaurant. But she did not think to go to a restaurant and to keep herself busy, she started to boil the pieces of jackfruit. The bell rang. It was almost 8:30 PM. She was not much excited not rushed to the door. She slowly opened the door. It was Mr. Subramanian. She saw his hand. There was no bouquet or gift etc. It was just the office bag.
She did not say anything but dried her hand on her clothes and took the bag from Mr. Subramanian. Mr. Subramanian said, "Happy birthday to you Mrs. Parul. Sorry I was busy in a meeting with international clients. But did you order the cake? I was in hurry to come home so i forgot everything."
"Yes, I did." In a slow voice she said. Mr. Subramanian said, "House is so sparkling and looking well decorated."
She said from kitchen, "It is first time when I decorated my room for my birthday."
Mr. Subramanian was sitting on sofa after changing his clothes. "Mrs. Parul come let’s celebrate your birthday. It is already late." Mr. Subramanian said. Mrs. Parul finished her cooking and went to change her clothes.
