Definition of Hell

In no time, Fiona & co., entered Flat No. 5. Aunt Rosa greeted them warmly. She handed them a glass of warm water each & made the sit on the long couch in the middle of the living room.

"My dear Fiona, you've grown so tall & beautiful, just like your Mom", Aunt Rosa exclaimed with joy.

"Thanks, Aunt", Fiona grinned broadly; her eyes turned into crescents.

"My pleasure, dear. Peter will show you your room,right Peter?",Aunt Rosa moved her eyes from Fiona to Peter & then again back to Fiona.

"Yes, Mom", Peter smiled.

"Take a bath there", Aunt Rosa pointed to a door behind her,"then you can take a nap n your room."

Fiona nodded slightly. Peter & Fiona grabbed the luggage & disappeared behind the corridor of the room. Then he led her into a room."Here we are. You'll be living in this room. Call me if you need something", Peter closed the door behind him & left Fiona alone in the room. Fiona unpacked her luggage & pulled out a white tee & a pair of soft pajamas. She left her room & entered the bathroom for light shower.

She came out & saw Peter & Piya helping her mother. As far as she knew, their father is in the army. It reminded her to call her parents. She entered the room & closed the door. She unlocked her phone & dialed 'Home'.

"Hello?", her Mom's voice came.

"Mom, I already reached here."

"Oh, Sis! We miss you badly", Leon shouted through the phone.

" I miss you too. But don't worry, I'll be there for the summer vacation,okay?"

"I know", Leon's voice carried a trace of sadness.

"Okay then. I'll hang up for now. Go to sleep", Mom added in

"Yes, Mom."

"Good girl."

Fiona kept her phone on the side-table. She immediately retired to bed. As soon as she closed her eyes, her phone started ringing. Fiona opened her eyes with a grunt. She groped her phone. The contact photo showed the 'Danger' symbol while the name showed '0919'. Fiona furrowed her brows & pinched the space between them.

This man even disrupts my sleep. He'll not allow to have a peace of mind even I'm in City J.

After much thought, Fiona answered the call.

"Hello?"

"..."

"Will you speak or shall I hang up?", Fiona was annoyed & her anger blew up easily.

"My dear, I shall be the one to hang up & be angry at you!", a magnetic voice chimed in.

"What do you want?"

"Come back to me."

"Never. Impossible."

"Why?",the voice carried a hint of mock sadness.

"Because, I hate you!", Fiona was on the verge of blowing up.

"My dear, don't you know the definition of Hell",the man on the other end let out a wicked laugh.

"That's why don't speak of returning to you."

The man on the other hand let out a gentle laugh while Fiona hanged up her phone and switched it off. Then she let out a long sigh. Without thinking much of the conversation she had with the 'MAN',

Fiona drifted off to sleep.

--2 Hours Later--

Fiona woke up from the constant knocking at the door. Very soon, a voice was raised.

"Fiona?", the voice carried a hint of worry. She immediately got down & saw Peter by the door.

"I'm sorry. I fell asleep."

"No, It's okay. Come for lunch."

"Of course", Fiona closed the door behind he followed Peter.

--Dining Hall--

When they reached the dining hall, they saw Aunt Rosa & Piya arranging the table & plates. Soon, they all sat together. Finally Aunt Rosa broke the silence.

"Tomorrow Peter will accompany you to the college, Fiona."

"Yes", Fiona & Peter nodded.

"Will Piya not go with us?", Fiona asked.

"No, she goes to a different school. She goes by the school bus provided by her school."

"I see", Fiona nodded.

"Mom, today is Liza's birthday. We're invited. Can we take Fiona with us?",Peter asked glancing at Fiona.

"Sure, why not?",Aunt Rosa nodded & then glanced at Fiona,"You okay with that?"

"No problem", Fiona smiled.

After lunch, Fiona hunted down her luggage to find a dress to wear at the party. Finally, she settled herself on a light-blue off-shoulder & a black short skirt. She pulled her long, black hair into a High ponytail. She smiled at her own reflection at the mirror.
