Hearing Mr John's question about being educated, Anna immediately understood that her future father-in-law has already calculated her entire horoscope. So now she too would have to answer every question thoughtfully. She just smiled and nodded yes. Anyway at home, one should not take the risk of speaking too much in front of the elders but Mrs Julie did not like Mr John asking questions to Anna like this. "You are too much.....She has agreed to marry Mark with so much difficulty and instead of being happy with your daughter-in-law, you are asking her so many questions. Didn't I tell you that both of them live together in the same house? Now it is not our era that we had to go through so much difficulty to talk to each other. Nowadays children are already talking to each other. Am I right Anna?" Mrs Julie expressed her displeasure on Mr John's words and said. Mrs Julie was actually so happy with Mark agreeing to the marriage that she had thought about her grandchildren's name. Though
Hearing Mark's demand, it seemed as if Anna's mind had gone blank. Till now her eyes were only looking at him. "You know how much work I have to do in the office and back then. After coming home, I get so tired that I don't have the courage to do anything. So before I come home, please prepare at least 5 types of dishes and 1 healthy soup for me everyday. Remember if I do not get food on time, then I get very angry. I hope I have not made a big demand." Seeing her condition Mark said. He then took out a cigarette and lit it. He was acting absolutely normal but at this moment there was a devilish smile on his face which Anna could not bear to notice. Anna had also clearly felt till now she was standing and listening to him with interest. After all, what he was trying to convey was by not taking the house rent by her, he has done her a favour to her? Does this small amount of rent matter to such a rich man like him? And in return of that rent he wanted her to do so much work. "You al
While sitting on the couch, Mark looked at Anna."Do you know there are still many places where there is no school. How many kilometers do the children have to walk everyday to go to school? You have to walk on the bus road and you cannot even walk 12kms for youe studies? What kind of a student you are?" Mark said. "What kind of a student I am, I do not need to tell you this. You are deliberately troubbling me. Are'nt you?" Anna now angrily pointed a finger at him and said."I really do not care what you think of me. If you feel so, then so be it." Mark replied carelessly.Anna kept looking at him angrily for a few moments and then gritted her teeth. "Executioners are better than you because they also have a heart. They also do feel the pains of others. But you......you a true heartless person."Saying this she angrily stompped her feets and went upstais towards her room. "Thanks for the compliment. If you are done crying, bring coffee for me." Mark laughingly shouted from behind.
"Patrick....I am going home and if there is any work left here then you can see. Ok?" Mark said while picking up his bag. Mark was ready to go home from office even before 5pm. Patrick, his assistant was shocked to see this. He checked several times, the clock was running fine. Mark was very serious about office work and time. It rarely happened that he went home before his employes. When ever he had to go somewhere for a dinner meeting he surely had to leave the office before time. Was it possible that Mark had a meeting today and Patrick did not remember it? Thinking this, he immediately checked the schedule in a panic but no such meeting was mentioned in it. The bigger thing was that, Mark who always roamed around with attitude on his face like a typical boss, today happiness could be seen on his face and at the same time, he was looking very excited to leave the office early. "Sir....are....you....going somwhere?" Finally, Patrick gathered courage and asked him. If by any chanc
The next day, Anna had woken up early so that all the work could be completed on time and then she also had to prepare breakfast for Mark. She had prepared porridge for him with two hours of hard work. Anna had just put the plates on the dining table. As soon as she heard the sound of Mark coming down, she turned around and saw that Mark was coming down comfortable with a watch on his left wrist. Today he was wearing a dark purple suit with a pink shirt. He was also wearing a burgudy colour tie. His hair was set in such a perfect manner as if each hair was neatly placed in it's place. Anna seemed as if she had forgotten to work after seeing him. Although, this was not a new thing. Mark was always so concerned about his looks that he always looked good. Every time Anna had seen Mark, every time he was better than before. He used to look handsome but today he was looking special and very attractive. Probably. today he will have to go for some special meeting, Anna thought. "Breakfast i
"Actually, this is the left over food from last night. I did not want to waste the food that's why I brought it to college. If you do not have any problem then you can eat." Anna said whilw slapping Leslie lightly on the head. She was shocked to hear Anna's word. What was the better proof of the trouble Anna was going through than the fact that she had to manage her work by eating stale food. Tear's welled up in her eyes but she quicly hid them."Just say that the food is left over from the night. You thought I would refuse to eat the food prepared by you?"She pulled Anna's lunch box from the table. She placed it in the middle and immediately took a spoon and put it in her mouth. "Amazing friend. Every food made by you is so tasty that I can eat what ever you feed me. I have no regrets in saying that you cook better than my mom and yes, if you are going to bring a lunch box from home again, then please bring some food. I am fed up of eating canteen food here and on top of that, th
Without wasting even a moment, he picked up his coat and car keys and went out of the house. It took about an hour to go by car from Mark's house to the University, but he was angry at this time and went at such a speed. While driving, within half an hour he was standing at the gate of the university. Mark had already been to this university many times, so without any hesitation, he drove his car straight inside the gate of the university and went to the university library and parked his car in front. As far as he knew, Anna was a very good student and such students were often found studying in the library. It is possible that while sitting with friends and studying, she might have lost track of time and she was at the library. Thinking that she must have forgotten to come, he stood there with his back to his car and started watching the people coming and going outside the library. Groups of students were leaving from there one by one. Anna should also be among these students. Mark t
"Now Anna, I feel as if the broadcaster has just taken your name." Leslie asked looking at her with confusion.There was clearly weakness in her voice and her face was also very pale. Anna's condition was also the same."Really?" Anna asked with surprise."Yes, I have heard your name only." Lelie said with full confidence."Perhaps you must be under some illusion or the person announcing this might be searching for some other Anna." She replied.Anna remembered that her maternal uncle and father had died years ago. Now she didn't even have any family, then who could dig her like this?"Now I don't even remember when my father used to come to take me to school or he must be searching for someone else." Anna let out a cold sigh and expressed frustration."Anna, I am tired. While running to the bathroom, it feels as if someone has taken out all the strength from the body." Leslie said in a tearful voice.Hearing this, Anna felt like crying."I am sorry Leslie. Please forgive me because
