Neil goes to the car and opened the door he looked at Avni who was looking at him. Neil thinks and gets in the car. Neil starts the car and Avni waves her hand. Neil showed his hand. Neil goes and Avni was looking at the car. She was sad but she can't say no to her father.

At the time of the night, Avni and Neil were laying on the bed and missing each other. They turned their side and saw the other side of the bed is empty. They caressed the bed sheet and thinks about each other. Avni sat on the bed and turns her face to the side table and picked up her phone. Avni saw the time is 12:30 am. Avni thinks.

Avni: Neil must have slept till now.

Avni thinks. The wind blows and her hair flies she saw the window is open and curtains her flying. Avni smiled, she got up and went to the balcony. She saw the moon.

On the other side, Neil was also standing on the balcony and looking at the moon he looked at his cell phone and thinks. Avni was looking at the moon and her phone beeped. She saw Neil send her a message.

Neil: Avni?

Avni starts to type but she erased the message and thinks. Neil was waiting for the reply. He looked at the sky and his phone rang. Neil instantly looked at the phone and his smile faded to see the caller id. Neil received the call.

Neil: Hello.

Man: sir, sorry to disturb you at this time but I want to talk about something important.

Neil: say.

On the other side, Avni frowns to get Neil’s number busy.

Avni: with whom he is talking at this time?

Neil saw Avni is calling her but he can’t cut the call. Neil keeps the phone in the ear. He heard the man and talked to him. Avni cuts the call, she turned to the rail and signed. Neil cuts the call and he saw that he talked twenty minutes and he saw two missed calls of Avni. Neil thinks.

Neil: Neil, you are gone now. This tigress will eat you alive now.

Neil was about to dial her number.

Neil: she must have slept till now and was surely angry with me.

Neil thinks and his phone rang again. He saw Avni’s number and received the call. Avni was about to say but she stopped. Neil waits for her to say something. Avni holds her wrist and turned her face. Neil turned and saw the moon.

Neil: look at the moon.

Avni turns her face and saw the moon.

Avni: how you kno…

Avni stopped. Neil smiled.

Neil: what happened?

Avni: nothing, I know your answer.

Neil smiled. They again went to their silent mode. Neil looked down.

Neil: so?

Avni: so.

Neil: say, you called. Why did you call?

Avni: you sent the message first. You say, why did you send the message?

Neil: I was not sleepy, so I thought to check that I am the only one whose sleep is away from him without his wife or her condition is the same.

Avni smiled.

Avni: well, I enjoyed myself a lot with my family and now I am too sleepy.

Avni yawns. Neil chuckled.

Neil: really? Then why are you awake still?

Avni: the whole family was here. We were chatting they just went now and I was about to go to sleep but you send the message.

Neil: is that so?

Avni: hmm.

Neil: if it is the case then why are you disturbing your sleep. Go and sleep why you are awake. Good night.

Avni was shocked, Neil cuts the call and smirked. Avni saw the call is cut. She opened her mouth then she narrows her eyes.

Avni: I will see you.

Her phone rang she saw the caller id and it was Neil. She received the call.

Avni: what happened? Why you call now?

Neil: you are still awake. I thought, you must have slept till now. What happened, why you are awake you were too sleepy.

Avni: I was about to go but you called again. Now bye. Good. Night.

Avni was about to take away the phone.

Neil: ok, ok. I am sorry.

Avni keeps the phone at her ear and sets her hair. They remain silent for some time.

Neil: I miss you so much. I can’t sleep without you. I want to take you in my embrace and wants to sleep peacefully.

Avni: yeah, that’s why you talked someone else twenty minutes that too at this time of night.

Neil smiled.

Neil: Are you jealous?

Avni: jealous, my foot.

Neil raised his eyebrows.

Avni: by the way, with whom you were talking.

Neil: to my second wife.

Avni: really! Then why can’t you take her in your embrace and sleep peacefully?

Neil: actually. It is the best idea. Why didn’t I get this idea? Thank you, Avni. Thank you so much. I am just going there.

Avni narrows her eyes.

Neil: bye.

Avni: will you send the divorce papers or I do the honours.

Neil was surprised.

Neil: why? You can adjust with her, she is so sweet.

Avni: don’t you dare to raise an eye on another girl. First, I will rip her into two pieces then I will wash you in the washing machine.

Neil: shant, shant, lady don, I was kidding.

Avni looked away.

Neil: do you really think that I can cheat you?

Avni smiled.

Avni: no, I know you can never cheat me. I trust you more than myself.

Neil: then why that reaction.

Avni: thought to brainwash you.

Neil smiled.

Avni: I thought maybe in future this thing will come to your mind so I thought to tell you now what can I do.

Neil: ooo, I am scared.

Avni: you should be.

They smiled then they sighed.

Neil: Avni, when will you come?

Avni: if you miss me this much then why did you not take me with you.

Neil: you can also say no to papa. I can also complain to you that why did you not say to him that you want to come with me.

Avni: how could I say no to him? After five years he called me princess. He talked to me. Everything got fine after five years and on top of that he came from the hospital then how could I break his heart? But you can say that you can’t leave me alone. I at least tried to say no by making excuse of clothes and mammy Ji but you directly said that if Avni wants to stay here she can stay, I have no problem. Then why do you have a problem now?

Neil: I knew, how badly you missed papa in all these years and I also knew you want to spend time with him that’s why I let you stay there.

Avni smiled.

Avni: thank you and don’t worry, I will come back in one week.

Neil widens his eyes.

Neil: one week?

Avni chuckled.

Neil: Avni, I will die till then.

Avni was shocked. She gets angry.

Avni: Neil!

Neil: ok, I am sorry but seriously, you are planning to stay there for the whole week.

Avni: no, Neil, I will come in one, two days.

Neil sighs by closing his eyes and keeping the hand on his heart.

Neil: thank God.

Avni smiled.

Neil: you scared me.

Avni shook her head. Avni turns and leans to the rial, Neil also keeps his arms on the rial they talked and goes to the room while talking they sat on the bed. They keep the pillow in their lap, Avni keeps the hair behind her ear. Neil leans to the head of the bed and Avni lays on the bed and yawns. They talked and Neil also yawns. Avni slept while talking and Neil was talking to her. He frowns.

Neil: Hello, hello. Avni?

Neil saw she is online.

Neil: Avni?

Neil smiled. He saw the phone.

Neil: she must have slept.

Neil smiled and shook his head. He cuts the call and sends her a message.

Neil writes good night, madam.

Neil smiled. He kissed the phone and sighed happily.
