Five Weeks by Shruti Omar (good books to read for teens .TXT) 📕

"Positive." She cut the call without bidding bye and dragged the trolley inside. She could've simply pressed the doorbell and door could've opened but in total Bollywood style, she pushed the door yet again, it remained closed.

"What the hell, yaar? My life just sucks." She came crashing down to the reality and pressed the bell. Kaka saw her and in his full speed, he sprinted to her, quickly opening the door. "Where were you muli? Sir and madam are so worried; they thought you just.....eloped." He widened his eyes and Anahita walked past him. "Come inside kaka and yes bring popcorns too because you are going to enjoy total Bollywood drama." She commented over her shoulder. This was going to be difficult and she hoped that she could survive.

"Mom! Dad!!" Her voice echoed in the hall ripping the doleful silence that had covered Maurya Mansion. Mr. And Mrs. Maurya eyed her as if she was an illusion; they got up immediately jumping on their feet and ran to her. Anahita didn't intend to but some tears dribbled down from her eyes when her mother hugged her. It made her guilty as well.

"Anu... Where were you babu? Where did you go?" Mrs. Maurya cried hugging her but Anahita's eyes were searching her father and his stiff demeanor when he probably noticed the heavy trolley bag beside her.

"What is this Anahita?" He asked calmly but his posture was not at all calmed. By then, everyone started noticing it and comments flew in air regarding everything and anything.

'Was she running away with her boyfriend?'
'Ooh my God! My brother has such a lousy daughter.'
'She will tarnish the prestige of this house.'
'Huh! It was supposed to happen. They've given their daughter too much freedom.'

All her relatives whispered loud enough for the whole family to listen. If she weren't in this situation, she would answer these hypocrites acutely but now was not the time. She had already her platter full and adding one more stuff would just make it difficult.

"I have asked you something Anahita. ANSWER ME!" Mr. Maurya roared, making her flinch and all the courage drenched out from her, leaving her shivering and wobbling.
