Uma didn’t make any contact with her and answered her while walking straight ahead,” Mom is unwell. So I took leave to help her.”
Adhira by now confirmed that Uma was lying to her so she decided to find out the truth. She spoke back,” What happened to mom?”
“As usual. Fever and wheezing.”
“Okay. Take care of her and let me know if you need any help.”
Uma nodded her head and they had reached Arya’s home so Adhira stopped and saw Uma heading towards her home. Once she was out of sight, Adhira went inside and inform Lakshmi that she had bought the vegetables and added that she would like to go to her home and see her mother. Lakshmi didn’t deny her so went out immediately to her home.
Adhira opened the door and was able to see Suresh also at home which was a rare case. She walked ahead and saw her mom washing clothes who was all healthy. Adhira was now sure that there is some problem at home so she walked inside and saw Uma who was crying near the wall. Adhira’s anger dropped when she saw her sister crying.
She walked to her and asked,” Why are you crying? Tell me what happened? Why did you lie to me?”
