Childish

The curtains were flying all around from the air cooler.

Sunlight kept pouring through the glass window. The room was filled with beautiful yellow texture of morning Sun glow making it serene and smooth.

Lina slowly woke up from the blinding sunlight on her bed. The sky outside was clear after last night's rain making it more pleasant to her eyes.

Lina made herself a cup of coffee after freshening up. The headache after last night's turmoil was still killing her. Plus lack of sleep made it worse. Only coffee could make things right.

And another thing! It's not that every day you get to enjoy such beautiful mornings.

Since it was Sunday, Lina was going to enjoy her morning coffee with some soothing music.

After doing the laundry for the previous week, Lina took a bath not before making bunch of delicious snacks.

She hurried herself after looking at the time. It was already 9 AM! Lina hurriedly packed the food and left her apartment.

She left on her bike after greeting the watchmen on duty. Lina was in such hurry that she failed to notice two persons observing her every movement from the black SUV resting in the garage.

The SUV also left the building not so long after her departure.

Lina stopped her bike in front of ' Happiness hill ' area. It was situated in a secluded posh area at far east side of Z city.

This area had elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, art museum, performing arts center, dance academy, art schools, some of the best theatre halls out there and acres after acres of numerous farms.

The most special place of the area was it's numerous old age homes, women shelter house and two well recognised orphanages inside. The schools were made for children from the orphanages here.

The children of the orphanage were given the opportunity to choose the streams of their choices with exclusive scholarships and most of them made it big in their lives. Thus, it bloomed and made name for itself. Then, every year applications kept coming from around the country and later it began accepting students from outside too.

The facilities available here were OTT and with free of cost services were available for the worthy ones.

The old age homes here had some of the best facilities ever found. As for the residents here the management never let them feel the absence of their families.

The whole project required a huge amount of money and resources and most over it needed connections. The " Happiness Hill Project" first started out as managing grain fields and making profits for the farmers by selling the grains in correct price outside. It was near about 25 years ago. For later five years it expanded itself not only in grain farms but also in dairy farms, vineyards, fisheries, fruit products, flower industries. Later it made women shelter houses and orphanages. For managing the orphanage and giving training the women living there it established schools and training centers. Thus it bloomed and made a name for itself today.

Looking at the scope and opportunities this whole project made now could make one question about the creator, who risked their wealth in this venture. Since, in the beginning none could imagine the impact of this project later.

For the last 10 years now, every big shot out there in the country were trying to find out the investors behind the scene but in vein. The management were tight lipped about their identity. It was still a mystery to the public even in the buisness circle of the country.

The watchmen on the gate no. 2 let her enter after checking her ID card. Lina volunteered asa care giver in one of the old age home here during Sundays and in vacations.

Entering the area, Lina went to park her bike. But ended up being disappointed big time. Her usual place in the parking lot was already taken by a big black car.

What made her frown was not that her place was stolen but the car itself.

After taking a look, Lina found that the car had no logo on it. Only fools would think this car was cheap or from the unknown local company. Despite its low-key appearance, Lina saw through the guise. As a car enthusiastic herself, she could easily tell, it was latest limited edition model sports car from the house of Audi.

The model was yet to available in the international market. Only the people with enough influence and connection could make it possible to buy it before it's official launch time. The owner of the car was not any simple people around.

Lina made a mental note about it. Though after working here for last three years Lina knew that many of the residents of the old age homes belonged to influential families, but somehow it made her uneasy. She thought of checking with the security later.

Despite feeling all these things, Lina could not help herself from mentally scolding the owner of the car. Even though she knew that the parking area is for everyone not only for herself, she didn't stop cursing the person.

This area was far from her residency. So, she set of early but thise traffic made her late. Who else she could blame?

Her logic was simple. 'see, the parking lot is wide open. But that damn car just had to stand on her place.! How disrespectful! Isn't it?'

After placing her bike she approached the car and made a mocking face to the car.

"Méchant voleur...!!!" [Thief]

The man sitting in the back of the car was quietly enjoying her antiques through the black tinted glass. He even figured out that the girl just called him 'theif' but just chuckled.

Watching her retreating angry figure making her way to the entrance he couldn't help himself from commenting.

" Pfft!! Still such Childish..!"

Just then his phone began ringing.

" Picking up my old guitar,

The confession that I couldn't make

Pretending I made one song, I'm about to tell

Just listen, I'll sing for you...

I love you a lot but I don't say the words,

It's awkward that pride doesn't allow me

Today I will take courage and tell you, but just

Listen to it carelessly, I'll sing for you..."

The man inside picked up the call after second ring.

" Yes, Secretary Mu. Did you get the appointment ?"
