It's midnight. Mishti is reading a book with deep concentration. Her HSC exam is coming up. Suddenly, there is the sound of something reading on the balcony of Mishti's room. Mishti leaves the book and goes forward with more interest to see what she has read. Mishti thought that maybe the flower pot has broken.
When Mishti goes to the balcony, she sees a basket of chocolates. And with it, something wrapped in gift paper.
Mishti is thinking whether to take the chocolates or not. But she doesn't have the courage. So she stands there.
"Api, don't sleep"
Mishti looks at her younger brother from the direction of the chocolates at her younger brother's words.
"Api, why are you standing there? Mom told you not to open the balcony door at night, so you opened it too. Wait, I'm telling my mother
"Look at Taj
" What?
"Come here
Taj goes to Mishti and sees the chocolates. Taj happily brings the chocolates.
" How did so many chocolates come here?
"I don't understand either
" Wait, don't understand. Let's start eating.
Mishti and Taj sit on the bed and start eating chocolates. Mishti is thinking who put the chocolates. Thinking and eating
"Apni, I won't eat anymore, my stomach is full. You lie down. Mom is looking at the books and dad is also working, so she sent me to tell you.
" Okay, you do what I'm lying down.
Taj leaves. Mishti puts the chocolates she sold on the study table and turns off the light and goes to sleep.
A little later, a message came to Mishti's phone
"You love chocolates so much that I left them for you. And I knew that my Mishti would eat the chocolates I gave her. I love you so much, you know. Go to sleep now
Reading the message, Mishti felt scared and angry. Who is this guy? Is he following me again? Who could it be?
Thinking about all this, Mishti fell asleep.
During the Fajr call, Mishti's father called Mishti.Mishti closed her eyes and said in a sleepy voice
"Please sleep for another five minutes, Dad.
"Not even one more minute. You know that tomorrow is your day, after today."
Mishti got up and went to freshen up. Mishti's father went to call Taj. Taj was in class five.
Mishti performed ablution and sat down with her book. Taj sat down next to her in annoyance, turning the pages of the book. It was annoying to get up and read so early in the morning.
Mishti read until nine in a row and Taj wakes up. Mishti is getting ready to go to college in a hurry. Mishti's mother has finished cooking and is packing tiffin. Mishti's mother is a primary school teacher.
Mishti is wearing a college dress and is following her mother around to braid her hair. But Mishti's mother is unable to do many things. Finally, her father braids Mishti's hair.
Mishti is standing on the side of the road with a bag on her shoulder, annoyed, waiting for a rickshaw. But there is no sign of the rickshaw coming.
Someone is sitting on a bike in the distance, watching Mishti. Then, thinking, he stops the bike in front of Mishti with a bike star.
Mishti is a little scared to stop the bike like this.
The man on the bike takes off his sunglasses and says
"What's your name?"
Mishti is looking at the boy as if he's new. She's never seen him before.
"Why should I tell you? Who are you?"
The boy smiled a little and said
" It's okay if you don't know who I am
" It's okay if you don't know my name either
" Are you going to college? Let's drop you off
" Thanks brother, no need. I can go alone
Hearing Mitshi's brother's voice, the boy looked at Mitshi with angry eyes. Then the rickshaw arrived. Mitshi got into the rickshaw and left
The boy looked at Mitshi and smiled crookedly and said
" I like your attitude.
Love
