Chapter 120 - MA... (1/2)
Siddharth tried his level best to move on from the topic and sleep but whenever he closed his eyes the words of his grandfather echoed in his ears, waking him up everytime.
After trying for a long time he finally gave up and went to the kitchen to drink some water.
The whole house was dark and only sounds of his own footsteps were echoing in the huge hallways. He slowly made his way towards the kitchen but his eyes suddenly caught a figure standing in the garden outside.
When he looked closely it was Tara's Mom standing there staring at the sky with all her concentration. Siddharth smiled softly when he saw her face glowing in the moon light, he never missed his own mom because she was always there for him and his brothers.
She was the closest person he ever had as a mother.
He slowly made his way towards her and silently stood beside her.
Everyone says a mother knows everything, true to that, she slowly turned sideways to meet Siddharth's eyes and after few seconds she smiled softly.
”Can't sleep?” She asked in a gentle tone.
”Hmm...” Siddharth just hummed in response and held her hands softly.
”Want to sit together and talk?” Mrs.Ray said in a low voice.
”Hmm...let's just sit on that bench there” Both Siddharth and Mrs.Ray made their way to the nearby bench.
”So... what's disturbing you...?” Mrs.Ray asked while looking at the sky above.
”Nothing just the usual office stuffs...” Siddharth sighed softly.
”Tara is leaving tomorrow...so you will again have to handle everything alone but it's a relief that now you have some trustworthy people by your side in the office...you will be alright this time” Mrs.Ray smiled softly.
