Welcome home

As Amy was a premature baby she had to stay in ventilation for 1 month with her mother, Diana. In this period aunt Lea sometimes came to see them with Sonson. After one month Amy was discharged from hospital. Her father, Harry came to take them home. Harry is the CEO of Xurex company. It was a well known company in M city for making cars. Amy’s mother was a manager in a well known Hotel. Amy was their first baby.

Amy was very cute and adorable. She had a pair of big purple eyes with long eyelashes which always twinkled like stars. There was always a smile on her face. She had chubby cheeks and a fair skin. Who ever had once seen her wanted to take her on his or her lap or at least wanted to touch her cheeks.

At five pm Amy’s father came to take them home. After completing all the formalities they all got in the car. Harry and Diana were very happy as they could take their little princess home at last. At seven pm they reached their destination. At home Lea, Andrew, Lea’s husband, and Sonson were waiting to receive them. They lived in the same neighborhood as Amy’s. It only took 2 minutes to go to Sonson’s house. All of them decorated the house with colorful balloons. There were also some other relatives and friends of Harry and Diana. All of them cheered Diana for giving birth to such an adorable daughter. Diana was also surprised to see them as she had no idea of this party.

There were a lot of tasty foods and drinks for the guests. All of them congratulate Harry and Diana. After some time Diana and Lea sat together in a quiet place and were gossiping. Diana was recalling about the past one year; how hard it was for her. She had to go to work every day till the seven month of her pregnancy.

"I never imagined things would be that hard. Sometimes I had to work overtime. Then I felt really exhausted. Sometimes I wanted to resign and went to our country home. Did you remember?"Diana said to Lea.

“How can I forget? Did you remember that night when it was raining cats and dogs? We couldn’t even contract you. Harry was too tense. He contacted the hotel management but they told that you already left the hotel a long time ago. Then after 5 hours you finally came back home.” said Lea. “Sorry for worrying all of you that much. Especially you, a cute chubby woman.” Saying this Diana started laughing.

Lea is always too conscious about her figure and beauty. She didn’t like it if anyone called her fat. So she tried to protest.

“I was never too fat. That time I was pregnant. So you can’t tease me like this. By the way you never told me what happened that night. That night you were looking really afraid and were crying for a long time. Did something bad happen to you that night? You always tell me that you will tell me everything at the right time. When will that time come?” Lea said in a curious tone.

Hearing this Diana looked paled. Her heart started aching.

“Lea, you are my best friend. So don’t worry, one day I will surely tell you everything. Actually this is something that you have to know. But please just wait till the right time comes and please don’t ask any further questions about that incident. It just tortures me remembering that incident.” Diana replied in a sad tone.

After this a silence broke out between them. Both of them lost in their own thoughts. One was thinking what Diana was hiding from everyone and the other was thinking how that incident would destroy the peaceful life of her friend. But none of them knew what tragedy was waiting for both of them which might shatter all the relationships around them.
