The Call Back Home

"What a day!" Nivritti exhaled a big puff of air the moment she entered her house. Her first day back was filled with drama, anxiety, and fear. She thought she might die due to all that worry and fretfulness. But somehow, she escaped the hell.

"Yeah, tell me about it," replied Jae-Hwa while hanging the bags on the pegs near the door. She too was nervous all day and was extremely afraid to reply to questions. She kept thinking that what would happen if she would make a mistake. And she saw what would happen if she would have made a mistake. An example was Dae.

Both the girls changed their clothes, freshened up, and jumped on the couch. Nivritti lay down on the couch with her feet elevated and let out a loud sigh of relief, "ahh!! Ohh! My feet were killing me."

"Pain?" asked Jae-Hwa suddenly sitting straight up.

"No, just tingling and throbbing." Nivritti let her head fall on the armrest of the couch.
