Madhu twisted the skin on his arms as soon as they reached her room as she glared at him and repeated the question she asked outside, "What did you say outside when I was in the kitchen?" She even stood in front of Akash glaring at him with both of her hands on her hips showing how serious she was.
Akash did not answer her but instead pulled Madhu towards him and hugged her. Both of his arms completely enveloped her as they wrapped around her protectively.
"Was it always like this growing up?" Akash couldn't help but ask even though he already knew the answer.
Madhu did not understand what he was asking. So, she just frowned and asked confused, "What do you mean?"
"Your mother?" Akash asked in one word without really bothering to explain in detail what he meant. But, this short sentence was enough for Madhu.
