SNAKES AND LADDERS (VIKONTAPALI)

He talked for a while, and then we watched the movie which I had paused the... Aki returned to his room.

the night ended just like that with a sorrowful wind.

Tripp Tripp Tripp (birds chirping)

Nyaaa. Good morning. So sleepy. Hi. I am Aditya, but everyone shortly calls me ADI. I am living with my parents along with my big brother in Monterey Bay, California...

because of our studies and my parent's work purpose. we often come to see my grandma who is living alone in the marina due to the loss of Grandpa she decided to live alone here. where she lived with Grandpa in the marina. Dad asked many times but she rejected him always. Since Hina has been working for Grandpa and Grandma as a caretaker for the past 10 years somehow we feel at ease. we didn't leave her completely though My brother or I always come by when we get national holidays since it is just a one-hour journey on our bikes. it's always like that but only on special occasions or whenever summer comes our kazins, aunts, and uncles also come by to grandma's home.

It always becomes a Halloween whenever they come. I do like everyone Dev, Harry, Elina, Ila, Sid. But I was never able to understand why that sid who taunts me always. he always teases me. I hate it... spite of my kind heart I always forgive him since we are family.

ha. I got ready for jogging. and came to the lawn.

hmmmm. fresh air, The morning breeze in the marina always feels nice since it's near the beach, wind always blows. nice.

hi. well well, who is that? Isn't my dear wife? says Sid.

here comes the devil. 'stop joking early in the morning Sid'.

Sid: ok. good morning.

Adi: what is that.?' ya good morning' says and thinks just don't think of him... concentrate on jogging Adi. come on.

I started jogging.

Sid: hey are you going jogging?

Adi: yes. y?

Sid: can I tag along with you?

Adi: No you can't do that. why do follow me.?

Sid: because I don't know any areas here. so can i.?

Adi: 'do as u wish.'

As we started jogging going out of the house I felt like something I forgot to do which is important. It's like something is ringing in my brain that I haven't done that. As I go further from home step by step someone is drawing me back and saying not to go without doing that. I abruptly slid out those thoughts and completed my morning walk along with Sid. It's not so common that he behaved well throughout the walk.

we came home and got ready for breakfast. As I came down to the dining hall I saw Dev who was down with puffed eyes like a dead one must be missing home I thought and on the other side my brother Akhil (aki), who an always active monkey sat on the dining bench on the right while chatting. I sat on the left side.

silently, Sid came and sat next to me, then Grandma, Hina, and Robert came, and breakfast was served.

Hey, listen guys me... since everyone is here... I want to propose to go to an amusement park. says aki.

Aki: what do you say, guys, Grandma?

Grandma: I am aged. how can I? You youngsters go without me.

Aki: no, grandma. u have to come along and here Hina, Robert you two are going on your date here are the movie tickets enjoy mr&mrs. and Grandma its our vacation so u are also allowed to have a fun-filled date with this handsome.
