52. THREE OF US TOGETHER

Sam has come to my class once again . He is sitting in front of my desk .

" What are you doing here ? ", I asked him .

" And don't say that you are here because you miss me. ", I said .

" Why ? ", Sam .

" Because that can't happen . ",I said .

" Why ? ", Sam .

" What do you mean ? I mean why would you miss me . I am not your sister . ", I said .

He chuckled . And then leaned his head on my desk . Now the back of his head is on my desk . His face is upside down and he is staring at me with his brown eyes . His glasses are fogged .

" I also wonder why would I miss you . ", Sam mumbled .

" You are wierd . ", I said .

" I know . " , Sam .

But then out of nowhere he grabs my neck with his two hands . His face becomes darker .What the hell ? Why is he choking me ?

" I won't let you win ...",

" Wake up , Myra . ", Serena .

" Wake up . ", Serena in a concerned tone .

" Are you alright ? ", Serena .

" Yeah , I just had a bad dream . ", I assured her .

So it was a dream . What a strange dream . It is all because of that weirdo . I am going to avoid him from now on .

" Yeah , I will get ready for school . ", I said .

" But today is Sunday . We don't have to go to school . ", Serena with a smile .

" Oh , right . ", I said .

" Come down to have breakfast . Your mom and dad are waiting for you at the dinning table ." , Serena as she leaves me alone in my room .

Now that I am alone in my room . I can feel the affect of creepy dream lingering around me . I feel awful for no apparent reason . Human psychology is really strange .

" So now you have finally honoured us with your presence Myra . ", dad as I enter the dinning room .

" Of course you should be very honoured . ", I said with a smirk .

" Well , well ....Do you remember that we agreed to have a match to decide who is best cook among us . Then why don't we do it today . Whoever wins will get to spent one whole day with Lily . ", dad .

Seriously , he is so childish . But I am not going to back off and let me win .

" Of course , I accept your challenge . " , I said .

" Then let us cook lunch after breakfast . Let us see who wins today . ", dad .

" Rishaan ...Why do you keep acting like a child ? ", mom .

AFTER A WHILE :

I decided to cook special paneer tika for lunch . Well , I don't know what father has decided to cook though . Let us do it . I am going to watch its recipe on youtube . It is going to be fun . I am a genius. Its easy to make .

I have cooked many things for myself from time to time . Its first time I am cooking for my family . Well ,it feels strange . Strangely good ...

" Here are your ingredients . Best of luck . ", Miss Maria .

AFTER TWO HOURS :

My paneer tika is cooked perfectly . Now its on fry pan . I just have to put it on the plate .

" Huh, paneer tika . Its very easy to make . ", dad criticised .

He behaves like a typical mother -in -law .

" Yeah , but its taste that matters . What did you make by the way ? Red pepper dish because it perfectly suits your harsh personality . ", I retorted .

" Ugh , you are not very good with comebacks . Are you ? ", dad , " And I have made chicken pizza . "

" And you think that is not easy to make . ", I said .

" I am hungry . Can you two serve the dishes already . ", mom

" Coming ! ", both of us replied in unison because of which mom started laughing . I didn't want to but I also started to laugh . I think laughing is contagious because father also started to laugh after a while .

" Its amazing . Both of you are good cooks . Hence its a tie . ", mom .

" No!!! ", dad .

" This means all three of us will spend whole day together . Its going to be fun . ", mom.

" No , I can't tolerate this man for a whole day ...", I complained .

" Yeah , I can't do this either . ", dad .

" Enough both of you will do as I say . ", mom in a serious tone .

Since both of us love her we don't say anything at all .

AFTER A WHILE :

" So we are going to amusement park . Then we will go to watch horror movie in theatres in evening .At last we are going to have dinner at japanese restaurant . So let us get ready . ", mom excitedly .

Great , now I also have to dress up . I hate dressing up . Now I am dressed up . Oh no , now I also have to comb my hair . I should cut my hair . It has grown long . Its difficult to comb long hair . Even though my hair are black and silky in texture.

" What are you wearing ? Its again the creepy black top and black pant . ", mom .

" Mom , I like this . Let us just leave . You know how much I hate dressing up . ", I told her .

" Fine , let us go . Your father is waiting in the car . ", mom grumpily .

Amusement park . I don't even remember when I played there last time .

We are here in the amusement park .

" We should first ride on rollercoaster . I love rollercoasters . ", Mom excitedly .

She looks very happy . She is behaving like a child .

Mom and dad sit next to each other while I have to sit next to some old lady . Yeah , an old lady . She looks very stern and confident .

And here we go . Ride has started at last . My

God . Why is it so fast ? My heart can't take it anymore . Stop the ride , stop it .

Finally it the ride has ended .

While both me and dad are puking their intestines out. Mom is still excited .

" I am so happy . Let us ride that thing . ", Mom as she points towards another dangerous ride . It literally takes people in its clutches and throws them away .

" No ! ", I shout .

" Yeah , I think its too dangerous . I am worried that you will be hurt . ", dad trying to suppress his fear .

" No nothing bad will happen . If you two want you can stay here while I have fun on the ride . ", mom .

In nutshell , mom rode all dangerous rides while we just stared at her like scared cats . Although I only rode some less dangerous rides it was really fun for me .
