Close Apart Chapter 9 “Surprise!” Aditya was too tired to get back to work, but he had no other options. When he got back, he found that Manish was gone for the rest of the day!! “Great!” he thought, “now I even don’t have anyone who could now listen to what I have to say!!” Aditya was upset, really upset. It was hard for him to carry on his work. His head felt like it was going to burst open with headache.

I don’t need this…” “Excuse me?” “I mean I don’t need anyone to receive me at the station and escort me to my home!! I am old enough to handle these things.” “I can understand…” “No you can’t!

I mean what happened?” “Come here and I’ll explain it all, will you?” “Ok Howrah, right? I’m reaching” “I’ll be waiting…” After a few minutes, Aditya was there at the station. “Thanks for coming, only this morning I got a call from mummy saying that she wants me to visit her really soon.” “Well that’s sooner enough!” said Aditya “Now don’t starting brooding over it! I’ll be back very soon” “You better be… otherwise someone’s life’s going to be really miserable…” Aditya held Amrita’s hand. “I promise.” “Now when’s your train? You got reservation?” “Just got current reservation, the train’s in an hour.” Said Amrita “Eh… well I need to hurry up, I don’t have any more leaves left, I’m sorry!!” “It’s alright, rush to your work. I’ll be OK.” Said Amrita & pushed Aditya forward. “Take Care!” ******************************************************** “You’re late!”
