Kapitel 5: TWO PERSONALITIES ARE COMING

When they left, I also left from there without telling Julia. She was just a headache. I wanted to go somewhere to ease my pain and kept my mind at rest. And the best place was our favourite spot where we all three visited more often. I made my way to that spot.

=====================================

David dropped her home safely. She bid goodbye to him. Then, she went inside the house and found the door unlocked. May be Stella left it opened because she was outside.

When she was inside, she thought everyone would be dozing off. But her thinking was wrong, her only grandpa room had lit up.

She thought he was waiting for him. She told him that she would be going to be late and perhaps returned home after twelve o'clock. But her grandpa was still waiting for her. He never listened to her, such a stubborn grandpa.

She was sure that her grandpa had been sleeping on a sofa. She could not go to his room like that expression. She handled and composed herself. She forcefully put a smile on her face because she did not want him to be sad. Then, she went directly to his room.

She was right. He was really sleeping on the sofa uncomfortably. She went near her and tapped on his shoulders. When he was awake, he smiled at her.

"Ava, you came."

"Yes grandpa"

"Now, you are here...I am relieved to know that you are safe."

"Yes grandpa, now sleep."

She made him to sleep on the bed. She then turned off the light and made her way to her room. She was not feeling good today.

She went inside the room. She did not change the clothes instead of that, she sat on the cold floor. She then turned off the lights and looked blankly at the wall. She was trying to cry but no tears was coming out because she had already cried a lot.

She recollected all memories of two days when he arrived. She could not meet him, so he personally met her. He had the same smile which he always showed to her whenever they met. First, she did not understand why he did not meet her at home but he met her in job time. Now, she got it because he did not want to look down in grandpa's eyes. Grandpa loved him so much like his own grandson.

In addition, he accompanied her everywhere she went. Even, he paid for her, but she did not like it. Whenever she tried to tell him not to paid for herself, but he always declined. He told him that they were close friends, and It happened in every friendship. It was normal, so relax. He would not ask her to pay back his money.

He also brought her necklace and told her to wear it on party. It was expensive and moreover, it was his first gift after four years. So, I accepted his gift.

Now, She understood everything that he had planned everything from the day when he returned. He was just waiting for the day so that he could embarrass her in front of every classmate. He was a monster. He was good at manipulating people and also good at acting skill. Now, he must have been celebrating his victory. She could not do anything for herself.

She thought if she would die, still she did not want to see his face. After so much, she did not have the energy to get up and laid on the bed. So, she asleep on the cold floor unknowingly.

The next day, she woke up with severe headache. She looked around and then herself, she found that she was no longer on the cold floor but on the bed. But she remembered she was sleeping on the floor then how she did on the bed. Then who had done that because everyone was sleeping. She did want to waste much time in thinking, so she hurriedly got up from the bed and got freshen up.

She went downstairs and started preparing food for family. When she was fourteen, her aunt taught her cooking and thereafter she started cooking food for the whole family. It was difficult for her at first then time to time she learned it.

She thought if her mother was alive then she would be proud of her. But God was very cruel to her.

She was not from healthy family. So, she had to work hard every day. She did job in order to meet her and her family requirements. She was now so preoccupied with her cooking.

While preparing, the yesterday incident flashed in her mind and a single teardrop fell down from her eyes. She wanted to erase yesterday memory from her head but couldn't.

When she was ready with all the dishes, she placed it on the dinning table and called everyone one by one because every one was sleeping and there, she was only one wake up early. Then after sometime, all came and sat on their respective seat.

In the dinning table, everybody was eating and chit-chatting together. On the other hand, grandpa and Stella never get tired of praising her cooking skill which made her always smile but today that was not the same smile but a sad smile.

While all were busy in digging, her aunt Ella sensed that Ava was upset with something. She wanted to ask her for some reasons.

"Ava, what happen my child, why are you looking sad? Is something happened to you at party?"

As soon as Ella said, everyone was looking at her direction. Ava was so confused that her aunt asked that question. She never asked that question in the whole life because she knew how much she hated her. She would be happy to see her in this state.

She even stopped cooking because she wanted her to be maid. But she never confronted because she knew she would try, she would hurt her grandpa or may be thrown them out of the house. Later, she replied to her question.

"No.. N-nothing happen and about party, I really enjoyed and will remember in all my life. Ivan was also there aunt, we danced and enjoy each other accompany."

She lied but answered with a vicious smile because she did not want her victory every time. She gave them assured smile and everyone got rest assured. That made her aunt get angry the way she answered to her. She was really expecting something big but went in vain.

"You know Ava, Mr and Mrs Williams are organizing a welcome party for his son and also invited us in W-Party."

Grandpa had a smile on his face. He finally got a chance to meet him.

"When and Where?" She asked nonchalantly while eating because she was not interested in that topic which was related to Ivan.

"Two days later at 8 o'clock in his home. You are going with me no matter what because your aunt and uncle are going somewhere else. I do not have any accompany. So, better come with me. He said with authoritative voice to her. If he tried in other way then she would never go. She would keep her job in that matter.

"I'll try."

She said to him but deep inside, she was making a plan to not go there because she didn't want to see him.

"We are going out of country to meet our son after such a long time. So, I want you to come home early as possible as we will leave for the airport. Understand?? Her uncle, Aiden said in dominant voice.

"Ok-ay" she said and left for her job.

She worked in a restaurant as a waitress. She wanted to work as a chef as she was good in it, but she did not get it and at last she work in restaurant where VIP people more visited.

It was fourth in rank out of all restaurant in her country. But still the wages for co worker was still low except chef.

When she entered into the restaurant, her friend, not actual at first but now. Her name was Georgia. She was so naughty and totally opposite of her perspective. When she was new to her work, she was only the one who help her and made her adjust to the environment. She was thankful to her. She first thought that she would not make any friend there but failed. She suddenly became comfortable with her and did not know when they became friends. Mostly, she treated Georgia as her little sister.

She came near her and greeted her, and she greeted her back.

"Hey Sister! You are looking tired. Are you fine?"

Georgia could see that in her eyes and moreover, she was late today. She thanked to God that boss was late today, and she was safe from boss.

Yes, I am totally fine and don't let your brain think too much. It will get explode some day."

"Caring for my big sister will not explode my brain due to over thinking. Now, smile big sissy."

She said while showing her hands making smile. Ava looked her innocence face which made her smile. Georgia got relieved.

"Let's start our work." Ava said

"Wait, I forget to tell you that Boss is calling you five minutes before your arrival."

"Okay, I will go first to her cabin then I will be back to work."

Georgia nodded and then Ava left to his cabin.

She knocked at the door, and she gestured her to come inside. Her boss was very strict when it came to work. She did not give any chance for mistake. One mistake led them to resign the job. She even threw her son out of her work because he always brought his friends to restaurant and gave them free food which was totally against to work. If she could not spare her own son then what about she?. She looked down due to fear.

"Sir, you have called me"

"Yes, Two important personalities are coming to our restaurant. So, you have to guide and took care of them. Do you understand???" she said and Ava bobbed her head affirmatively. She also warned her to not do any kind of stuff which they would regret it.

She came out of the cabin and heaved a sigh of relief. She then moved to the table and took a seat.

Georgia seated beside her with a tray in her hands because she was in service now.

"What did Boss say to you? Did she scold you for being late?"

"Not really like that. She said that two important people are coming here. So, take care of them as she was not available in evening."

"Ohhh then I am very excited to meet them. It has been long time since we saw handsome and hot man. It is really going to be fun."

She was always like that when it came to male person.

"Hey Georgia Come back to your senses now. We are here to guide them, not gawking them. One day, when you get your hot and handsome boyfriend then let us see if you will be able to gawk or not. Okay my stupid sister."

She said with pinching on her arms.

"Ouch!! You are so mean." She said in childish voice.

Suddenly Georgia saw her in puzzled state and asked her.

"What happen? Why are you so tensed all of a sudden?" Georgia asked in serious face.

"My uncle and aunt are visiting out of country to meet their son in evening and I have to go home early but.... what should I do now?" she said showing her tensed and serious face.

"Don't worry, I'll help you to complete our work as soon as possible." Georgia said. She nodded and they started doing their work.

Later, one of co- worker from kitchen came out and directly went to cabin hurriedly. He knocked at the door and went inside nervously. He was so scared of her. He tried to look at her but unable to do it. By hook or crook, he had to face his cruel boss, so he lifted his head upwardly to face her. He saw that her boss was busy in phone, but he could not wait for a second because they were already late. If he waited for more minute than then their task would remain incomplete. Without thinking too much, he spoke up.

"Boss, Could you please hear me first as it is important?"

As soon as she heard, she hung up the call and dangerously looked at him.

"What happened? Why are you so in hurry? Could you not wait for a minute and see that I am talking to someone?"

"I am sorry Boss"

"Now tell me fast what made you come in hurry in my cabin in this time when you must be in the kitchen?" She said in a dominant voice.

"Our main chefs did come today, and we do not know much about cooking because we are here for washing dishes and cutting vegetables."

His hands were sweating because he knew that two VIP person were coming. If the meals would not be prepared in time then they had to face the consequences. More importantly, their boss would put them in coffin alive.

"What? What was the reason behind their leave?" Her boss anger was increasing.

"They told us that they are all in traffic jam and may be three hours take them to reach here."

He could see that his boss were pacing back and forth in annoyance. After ten minutes, she spoke up.

"Ask some workers who know cooking and tell them to meet me in the office."

He nodded and then went outside.

"Is there anyone who know cooking?"

Then, two hands raised up in the air, one is voluntary and another is involuntary.

"Yes, we know cooking and the other one beside me was master in cooking."

"Then come with me in boss cabin."

After that, they left to cabin, and he got relaxed and thought that they did not have to see the bad side of their boss. Finally, there were more who knew cooking or may be not. God knew about it.

When they went inside the cabin, he saw the look of his boss was now calm. She stood up and crossed her hands over her chest.

"Do you both know how to cook?"

"Yes, we know cooking."

The two were none other than Ava and Georgia.

"Then start preparing, we have only three hours left. This time, no mistake otherwise ready to see my bad side."

They all nodded and went directly to a kitchen. He instructed to them and arranged all the ingredients. He placed it on their side. They then started preparing all the dishes. After three hours, they had completed cooking and went outside to welcome the two unknown personalities.
