7 __SIX__

After few minutes when I reached my room, I called Cassie to have a chit chat. She's my best buddy and partner in crime. lol. The beat fact is that she never misses judging my mood listening to my tone or seeing me texting in an odd way; which is very often. She declined my call in the second ring itself, so I decided to text her.

[ over texts ]

Me: Umm...Cassie...

Me: Listen, I need to talk to you...

Me: HEY, you there?!?!

BFF: cut it out Syndi... what on Earth do you wanna talk about? Tell me bloody quick. I am with that guy. you remember I told you?!

Me: Kay, no problem. Have fun.

BFF: Witch tell me fast what the freaking problem is or was.... I've excused my way to the washroom in the middle of an important joke. And you know what? I did it only for you. So, keep your drama aside and for God sake tell me FAST!!!!

Me: *ugh. Rolling my eyes* Kay call me then...

It was time for dad to return home. Half an hour has passed since Cassie called me and told me about a 'handsome' guy she was with. She was excited to enjoy his company. I don't remember when did she even tell me about a new guy in her life but I just agreed with the fact that she has told me earlier. If I disagreed with her on any of the topics related to her she would have teased and blame my short term memory, which I luckily made not happen. Keeping in mind her excitement, I just informed her that I was feeling low, to which she replied with just a simple "oh, that's common for you" and after that She asked me about Aiden's birthday plans to which I replied that we will have to decide about it very soon. After a bit chit chat, she hung up the call informing me that I've wasted enough time and now she needs to go and continue with whatever the guy was telling her.

Soon after the call I started with my homework and was genuinely excited to complete it before dad or even Aiden arrive. It didn't take me much time to go through the assignments and complete my homework. Soon after I completed my work, I called Aiden to check up on him as well as Karen. He told me that Karen was suffering from viral fever and so he'll be a bit late to reach home. He also mentioned that he has called dad and have let him know about Karen so, I don't need to worry about any issues. He asked me to take care and to be upstairs to avoid any uninvited commotion in the house. I agreed with him and asked him not to worry about anything.

It was almost midnight when I woke up listening to my father's voice. He was probably on a call. I rubbed my eyes few times only to clear my blurry vision and then found dad leaning near the window and instructing someone to do something, over a call.

"Dad..." I called him when he just ended his call.

"Honey, I'm so sorry. Did I wake you up? ugh... these phone calls are irritating." He made a funny face and then ran his long fingers through my hair. I chuckled and then nodded my head earning a smile from him.

"Is Aiden home, dad ?" I looked up to face him.

" No honey, Karen is seriously ill so I've asked him to take care of her as she is all alone. " He patted my back.

"Ohh, ok ok... Dad, when are we planning to surprise Aiden on his birthday?" I asked with a puppy face.

" very soon Honey, but I don't think Aiden will even want to attend his party if Karen remains ill" He stated. To this, I also agreed with him.

"Well dad, I have a plan...let me sleep on your lap and I'll tell you my fabulous plan...Deal?" I chuckled and then looked at him with a smile.

"Honey, you can always sleep on my lap. Come..." His hands reached out to me to help me to get up from where I was sleeping and then placed me on his lap where I slowly curled myself and adjusted my little 'huge' body.

"So dad... I was thinking if....." I continued to tell him my plans and was excited to see him nodding with my plan and accepting it.
