Chapter 12

(Dhiya's view)

"Dhiya wake up!" Mami's voice was loud enough to break my ear drums.

"Uhh...what is it ma?"I asked rubbing my eyes,trying to pull me out of the bed.

"Look at the time young lady,won't you wake me up a little earlier?"

"You could have used that alarm clock,if you want to get up so early" I said.

"Oh!Then why are you here as a woman of this family?"

"Hmm...."I got up and remained silent. Talking back at her won't help,it only ruins the situation more.

"Uhh....this is why I've advised not to get a girl outside our family" Mami said and went out giving a dirty look at me.

"1...2....3..."I counted to lower my anger and went inside kitchen to fetch some milk.

Mami was watching something from the balcony. I wondered what or who would that be,anyway she was interested in something other than me.

When I poured milk into the vessel, I could hear some foot steps approaching inside our home.
