That One Deal by Barnali Bhuiya (ebook reader .TXT) 📗

"Hi honey! How are you now?",asks Mrs. Addison.

"I am good now.",says Mr. Addison looking at the window.

".... What's wrong with him? Not giving me a look again?",she thinks deep down.

"Honey you know I've missed you so much. I was praying for you so that you would be absolutely ok. Honey I love you so much....",she goes near Mr. Addison trying to show off as a good wife.

"Then why didn't you came before?",he asks.

"... Umm,I was just... I was busy praying.",she says.

"If Luna wouldn't be taking care of me then I wouldn't be here by now. As a wife you didn't even...",says he.

"Luna? She came here?",she asks angrily.

"What do you mean? She came here and as a mother you don't even know? How can you be?... You might be busy with your useless son!!!",says Mr. Addison.

"Dad. How are you feeling now?... Who's she?", getting in the hospital room Luna asks her Dad as she sees a woman is also there.

"Oh my daughter you came...",says her Dad.

Looking at Mrs. Addison Luna stares at her Dad ignoring her completely.

"I'm better now.",says he.

Then infront of Mrs. Addison Luna talks to her Dad smiling. And Mrs. Addison gets very angry and jealous.

"I'll come to see you soon. Ok Dad.",Luna says to her Dad.

Seeing her to go out Mrs. Addison follows her and holding her hand hard she says,"What are you doing here?"

"Let me go.",she says in pain.

"Tell me. You should have been with Richard by now but how come you're here? What you did? You ran away?....",says Mrs. Addison.

"Let me go Mom. It hurts...",says Luna.

"Tell me or I'll beat you up. You dared to run away from there? You're not even grateful that we took care of you all these years, shouldn't you repay...!",says Mrs. Addison.

"You think you can run away? Wait for me! I'll investigate if you really ran away then don't ever dare to come back to the house!", saying so she pushes Luna away.

Luna cries in pain, Mrs. Addison held her hand so hard that it was hurting. She keeps crying but doesn't say even a word.

She goes to the nearest library. She studies till afternoon.

"Hello?",she receives a call seeing someone called her.

"It's me. See there's a car waiting for you outside. Don't go anywhere,go back to the mansion right away.",says David over the call.

"Ehh? How did you know I am here?",she asks.

"That doesn't matter. See you this evening. Bye.",says he.

 "Ehh? But...",as David has already cut the call so Luna has no other way except following his words.

"How did he got my phone number? And far I forgot to ask him how did he know my name is Luna? Who's he?..",she keeps thinking in her mind.

Going outside she sees there's a car waiting for her for real. "Ahh!",she goes to that car and she sees the man who's welcoming her. She sees there is not only one man but five men.

"Miss. Get in the car.",a man says gently.

"....",she feels quite strange. 

Everybody over there keeps looking at them and it makes Luna feeling quite embarrassing as she's not habituated by people's looking at her like this.

Going in the mansion Luna sees Sydney and she gets to be surprised.

"Hello Miss. How are you?",he asks.

"Hi. I'm good. Umm,what about you?",she says.

"I'm fine. David said you must get prepared by this evening. She's a designer and she'll get you prepared.",says Sydney looking at a woman who's standing there also.

"And take this file. Read them and memorize them well.",says Sydney giving her a red file.

"Ehh? But why? Umm...",she asks getting confused.

"There'll be an event you need to join with him. Read this file you'll understand by then. I'm leaving then. Bye Miss.", saying so Sydney walks towards his car.

"An event? But... What's the meaning of taking me with him?... So confusing aiya what is going on with me?..",Luna keeps talking in her imagination.

Looking at the woman Luna smiles but she's kinda nervous deep down.

"Come with me Miss.",says the woman.

Seeing so many beautiful dresses Luna smiles. She's so lost in the dream that she almost sees she's running around wearing those dress one by one.

"Miss?", getting awakened by the woman Luna sees the woman is looking at her.

Getting a call the woman says,"Yes Mr. David?.... Ohh ok ok."

"Huh?", says Luna.

"Mr. David said you must wear this dress so try it out.",says the woman holding her a beautiful off shoulder long gown.

"His name is David or his secretary's? Well, whatever...", getting confused she takes the dress and goes to wear it.

"Is she already there?", David asks Sydney while looking in a file.

"Yes...",says Sydney

"Ok.",David says.
