Shitttt... I thought to wrap up the case before Ash returns, but now it's all upward downs. Now, Whom I will check out? I will look after Ash or James's family? Something is wrong... I spotted a shiver in Ash's voice. What would have taken place to him? Aish! Since the day this case started, it's been driving crazy.
I reached the residence and was refreshed. I laid on my bed and closed my eyes. Like a cinema smiley face of James and the young woman flashed in my mind. I must have caused some problems for them. That's why they're doing this to me? But... What problem did I cause? I can't even pick a single annoyed or depressed moment.
I called Alan.
"Say! Jia."
"Are you busy?"
"Nah. Can you tell me what happened? You followed James, right?"
"Tomorrow, I will tell you. Tonight, you drop Charlie off at my residence."
"What? What went on?"
"Nah. Tonight, Ash is coming back."
"Oho, okay."
"Tomorrow morning sharp at 8.00 AM come to my residence."
I ended the call, walked too and fro in the hall after time passed a little. I laid on the sofa and fell asleep. Suddenly, I heard glass cracking noise; I opened my eyes and looked. What's that noise? I guessed it must be a dream and looked at the time. Oh, God!! It's 6.30 PM. Ash will arrive at 7.45 PM at the airport. I must get ready shortly.
After getting ready, still some time is left behind so I transfer the images which I captured in the morning to my laptop. Someone rings the calling bell, I move to check out who is that? It's Alan and Charlie.
"Get inside, Alan."
"Wow! What, you look so girly today!"
"Quit teasing me. Get inside."
"Nah, Jia. It's okay, I will leave."
"Ah okay."
"I'm going to miss Charlie. Jia, bring him with you whenever we don't have work."
"Sure."
"Bye, Charlie."
Charlie barked at Alan but Alan didn't give a back look and left.
"Charlie, stay here. I will come soon." I left Charlie in the doorway, went inside the home, grabbed my handbag, and locked the residence. "Charlie, come get inside the car." as I freed the back door, Charlie jumped inside and settled. Charlie prefers to receive fresh air so I lowered the window slightly and drove towards Airport.
Entered in the airport and waited for Ash. The flight which Ash was in landed safely. 10 minutes passed, yet I can't spot Ash. Charlie is in the car. I can't leave Charlie alone in the residence. I'm scared what if someone harmed Charlie, so I brought him with me.
"Oi, whom are you hunting for?" A man behind me held my shoulder and asked. I really panicked and didn't know what to do? I held that man's hand, twisted and forced him to knee down in my front.
"Ah.. AH... What are you... Do... Doing?" His voice is so familiar. This voice… This… voice is… Aish, it's Ash. Now, what am I going to do? I released his hand and apologized.
"Sorry... Sorry... I thought it's someone. Also, you changed your voice too, so I can't recognize you. Sorry."
"For that, you will twist and knock me on the ground?"
"Sorry... Sorry... Really sorry."
"Aish! You spoiled my mood. Every wife will welcome their husband with a smiley face but YOU...." Ash talked to himself in a low volume while walking toward the car, but I can hear it.
"Hey!!! Jia, there is a dog inside the car." Ash was panicked. He doesn't know about Charlie.
"Hey!! I'm asking you only. Why is there a dog inside our car?" Ash again screamed.
"Ah, stop calling him a dog. It's Charlie."
"Charlie!!! How do you know his name?"
"I only gave this name to him."
"You grow these pets!!"
"Yes, come soon. First, we should arrive at the residence and have dinner. I'm so hungry."
We went near the car. Charlie started barking after seeing Ash. I told Charlie to be quiet.
"Honey, get inside."
"No, Never, I can't."
"Now, you will get inside or shall I move without you."
I settled in the driver seat. After a few seconds, he sat next to me in the front seat. I know he doesn't like dogs but I don't know he hates dogs this much. He can't relax inside the car comfortably. He is sitting like a robot because of Charlie. I enjoyed it a lot. Charlie! If he encounters someone who is frightened of him, he will become so naughty. Charlie lay his face on Ash's head.
"Hey, ask him to stay quiet."
"Charlie."
Charlie barked and settled in his seat quietly.
After 25 minutes, we reached our residence. Without wasting one minute, Ash rushed inside, followed by Charlie. Aish! These two... How am I going to manage them? I carried Ash's luggages and moved inside.
Bow.. Bow.. Bow...
"No, I can't grant you inside my room." Ash responds by standing behind the bedroom door. Yeah, Charlie is barking to allow him inside.
I giggled because, like a kid, Ash is not allowing Charlie inside.
"Honey, Open the room."
"Only you should get in. Don't bring him along with you."
"Okay, understand. First, open the door. Your luggage is so heavy to carry."
Ash opens the door. Next minute, Charlie passed inside.
"You..."
"Hey! First, pick up all the luggage. My hand is aching."
"Acho. Sorry, darling."
"Go refresh and come."
"I should not see him inside our bedroom. Move him before I refresh and come."
Ash glowered at Charlie and left. I told Charlie to go to the Hall. I changed my dress, moved to the kitchen and prepared some yummy foods. While I'm arranging the food on the dining table, Ash appeared without wearing a top, shirtless!!!
"Come, let's have dinner."
"Hmm."
"Where is he? I can't see him."
"Who?" First time, I cooked spicy curry. It's so yummy, I'm enjoying it but Ash is disturbing me.
"He."
"Who is he?" slightly, I shouted. In front of yummy food, I even forgot who I'm communicating with. Now, what should I do?
"You... Are you speaking loud to your husband?"
"No, honey. You said to him... Him. I don't recognize who is him?"
"Nah, I'm watching you from the beginning. You shouted HEY, 2 to 3 times. Now, also shouted at me."
I kept my facial expression so unhappy.
"This face will never work on me. Have dinner and be ready. Tonight, you have special treatment."
What treatment?! Aish! There is no uncle and aunty to save me today.
