9 Moon tried to drive motorbike

It was noon. Star was sitting in a chair in front of moon and Haniya, was apparently reading a book, but the confusion on her face showed that she was thinking of something else. Moon had been watching her for several moments. He wanted to know what had affected his action to star. Seeing her anxious, he too had become restless.

Star felt that moon had been staring at her for the last five minutes, so she immediately looked up and saw moon. Moon was not probably in his senses. He could not take his eyes off her. The message in his eyes was beyond star's comprehension.

"Hello ..... where are you lost? ..... the lesson is written on the book, not on my face." star waved her hand in front of him. Moon began to look around confusedly. Haniya also looked at him with a look of surprise.

"I ... I had to ask you something," he said hesitantly.

"Ask?"

"Why are you looking so upset?" moon asked. Did she really look upset?

"No, I am not upset" she lied. moon knew.

"If there's a problem, you can tell me," he said, looking her straight in the eyes for the first time. Star remembered yesterday's incident. She was asking moon to tell her every problem because it was star's right to worry about him. Now how could she stop him from worrying about herself?

"Then what will you do?" She asked curiously.

"Maybe I can help you." He still did not take his eyes off star's eyes. star laughed.

"Will you ... help me?" star didn't seem to trust him.

"Yes. Why can't I help you?"

"Help yourself first." Haniya mocked. Moon saw her and gritted his teeth.

"All right. Don't fight. Focus on your study.." star stopped both of them.

"Tell me your problem first." moon was still stuck there.

"I have no problem," star said in a blunt tone, and he fell silent.

.....

"Oh, no man .... shift into first gear....." Zahid was teaching moon to ride a bike. This was his new plan to impress star. In the novel, the hero was a bike racer and moon didn't know anything about the bike. He used to drive a car, but if the hero of the novel knew how to ride a bike, he also had to learn this. His friend Zahid had a sports bike that he was trying to ride at that time.

"Oh, what are you doing? Depress the clutch ... oh ... oh" Zahid was just explaining to him but all of a sudden, The bike sped off. Moon became confused and tried to stop the bike but it was difficult to handle the bike. Zahid believed that neither his bike nor the bones of moon would be saved. He ran after him screaming helplessly but before that moon had fallen along with the bike. His right leg and arm were badly injured. The shoulder bone was sore and the right foot was sprained, but the head was spared. The pain was severe. He was losing his senses.

"Moon ... moon ... get up." Zahid came running towards him and started calling him with great anxiety. People had gathered around. A man picked him up, hurriedly put him in his car, and headed for the hospital. Zahid also went to the hospital with him.

After fifteen minutes this news had reached all the family members. Everyone got upset. Star, who was so strong, started crying when she heard this news. They all went to the hospital together. By the time they arrived, doctors had treated moon. The bones weren't much damaged. The doctor forbade him to walk for two or three days because of a slight sprain on his foot. Thankfully, the next exam paper was two days later, otherwise, it would have been very difficult for him. His right arm and leg were also in so much pain due to injuries. Everyone was silent when they saw him in discomfort, but star's anger had reached its peak.

"What was that? What were you doing? Why did you try to ride a motorbike? Tell me?" She was standing in front of him, screaming. What would moon tell her, why was he doing all this?

"my heart desired" he shrugged.

"And you know what my heart is desiring now?" She gnashed her teeth. Tania did not like that she was scolding her son even in this situation but she could not say anything to star in front of her husband.

"Stop it star. He is already in so much pain." Arafa wanted to calm her down.

"He deserves it. He was learning to ride a motorbike from his useless friend who is still unskilled." She nodded her head angrily. Moon's heart was happy to see her worried for himself.

"Next time, if you ever touch a motorbike, not anyone would be worse than me for you." She warned him.

"Why ...?" moon asked, raising his eyebrow. Star stared at him. He had never asked such questions before.

"Why can't I ride a bike?" He asked seriously.

"Because you don't know how to ride." star was furious at his question.

"I will learn?" he countered.

"There's no need. Drive car only." She spoke bluntly.

"That's why I'm weak. If I have the slightest difficulty, You all get worried. If you don't let me face the difficulty, How can I move forward? You all still treat me like a child. You stop me from doing whatever I want to do. And star, you told me to make decisions on my own. Now why are you forbidding me? "He was right. He was loved by everyone so they did not let him get into any trouble. Maybe that's why he was weak. Star also agreed. She could not say anything.

...

It was the fourth day since the accident. He was avoiding walking mostly. He was studied in his room. Star used to come to his room to teach him.

It was seven o'clock in the evening. He was getting very bored in the room. He didn't even want to study. He was missing star. He wanted to get rid of her thoughts, so he got up and sat on a chair in front of the writing-table, turned on his laptop, and started playing pubG. With one hand on the mouse and the other hand pressing the buttons on the laptop keypad, he looked at the screen and began to kill his enemies.

Star Looked into the room, slowly opening the door and her eyes fell on Moon who was playing a game on his laptop. She got furious. Tomorrow he will have to take an exam paper, but he was playing a game right now. Star gnashed her teeth and approached him. When moon killed one enemy, another came in front. Before he could deal with him, star grabbed his mouse hand and pulled it to one side. At that moment, the enemy shot moon. It was just a game of moments.

"Damn it!" He said angrily and looked to the right where star was staring with angry eyes. The expression on his face was suddenly loose. He thought that Haniya had spoiled his game but it was star. How could he be angry at her?

"Are you studying?" star asked in a stern tone.

"I have lost my mind after reading so much. Shouldn't I relax a little now?" He said with a sigh.

"You're using your brain and eyes to play games. How is it relax?"

"Games are essential for Mind to Fresh." He added to stars's knowledge.

"These are the outdoor games that refresh the mind." star patted him on the head.

"Yeah, I play that too. I know a little bit about cricket. Now I'm thinking of playing football and basketball. Once the exam will be over, I'll start going to the gym." He was spirited.

"I'm noticing, haven't you been weird for a few days?" star said in surprise.

"What do you mean, weird?" He said, looking around.

"I mean, you weren't like that before. You didn't care about yourself at all. Now you're improving yourself. Any special reason for that?"

"Reason," he smiled. She was the reason. He wished that he would be brave enough to tell her the reason.

"Hmm." star was waiting to hear the reason.

"There is a destination that is far away from me. The path is also very difficult. But I have to reach that destination. I am preparing for its journey." He spoke thoughtfully. Star did not understand the meaning of this.

"What are you saying? ..... such profound thoughts? ... haven't you started reading novels etc?" star asked with a sniff.

"No way. Why did I read the novel? And do you think my words are the dialogue of a novel?" He asked fiercely to hide his nervousness.

"Well, that's your thinking. It's good. If you keep working hard, you'll get to the destination. Good luck." star patted his shoulder. He smiled mysteriously. The destination itself was wishing him success. It was like a ray of hope for him.

.....

"Mama, I have to go to Amber's engagement today and the driver is not here. How can I go?" star asked anxiously as she entered the lounge. Moon sitting next to Arafa, was talking to her and eating French fries she had made. He saw star and stilled. Star was shining brightly. It was difficult for moon to take his eyes off her.

"I'll take you to the engagement party," he said before Arafa could say anything.

"No, please. Just study. Tomorrow is your last exam paper." star said and moon grimaced.

"Moon is right. Now it is going to be evening. I will not send you alone. He will drop and pick you up."

"Okay, let's hurry then," she said kindly. What else did moon want?
