Introduction:
Hello there, I figure it's been a long time. In my defence, I'd only say that I was taking time to deliver a story worth the wait. You never really know if you have it, but you can't refrain from trying. I hope you enjoy it as much as the previous series.
Vani, an elite lawyer by profession, has a dilemma which seems to eat her day in and out. In an attempt to pull things together, she crosses paths with Madhuri, who is a senior college professor, the wife of the deputy inspector general of the state, a mother of two, and Vani's closest friend. Since Madhuri is much more than a friend to Vani, she happily decides to give what her friend is asking for i.e. help. The story will come out in different parts, and the build up remains patient as always. The characters are as follows: Vani, Suraj (Vani's husband), Shekhar (Vani's son), Madhuri, Aarav (Madhuri's Husband). The series per se is wordy, detailed and sexually explicit; reader discretion is advised. Thank you.

SHEKHAR
The morning breeze had never left behind this much exhausting vibe as it'd given that day. I've already heard my door being banged thrice or four times, and the knocks only added sounds to my morning dream. I was running and sprinting around the short grassy land, and down this green field; farther you look, farther the reach of the field extend. I was being chased as per my racing heartbeat and sprint speed. I never stayed still for quite a while now and kept on running along the length of the field. For some reason the sky above me started shaking, and banged once, not a thunder but banging, loudly, twice and thrice, and kept being shaken, and banged until it looked to lose its grip with the horizon. It loosened up, and finally started to fall down.
I ran for my life, but only till a few inches. And the clouds came down stamping me under it. I screamed, and cried for help. No sooner did the cloud stamp me than the life inside of me kept to be away until it was dark, preposterously dark all around. My eyes opened up, I looked left in fear, and then right; heaps of sweat rolled down my forehead, and as I looked forward, there she was; my mother, who stood before me after having supposedly opened the door lock with a key. I figured where the banging came from. She watched me catching breath after the beastly dream. She waited for me to pull myself together.
"Can't it be said that my son is still a high school boy being unmoved till the door doesn't get a crack through banging!" My witty and scholarly mother spoke looking directly at me.
"I'm not sure who is wise enough here mom." I spoke still feeling the low octave of my morning voice.
"Can I do you the favour son?" She quickly replied.
"You sure can mom."
"You do know that my son can still be much better from here. I don't see the reason in being depressed by college." She had started to do the cleaning of my room, sitting down prior to speaking this.
"I think you're mistaking disinterest as depression mumma. There's more to it." My consciousness still very much over the attempts to hide my boner.
"You aren't subjected to bite off more than you can chew. There is only a confidence block between you and a chuffed stature again son." Mom caressed at the back of my head.
"I am unable to take interest maa."
"I know, but in order to gain interest, you've to be a little attentive no beta (son). Being aside, and running away is never a solution to it." She said after having gotten up, and towards the bedside. I now had time to turn around, and walk forward till I lose it.
"So you came to know?"
"Not only me son, your father did too." She said starting to do my bed sheet.
"Now that's a surprise." I said as I settled to do my boxer well, and to the surprise the wood was no longer there. I perhaps was saved from an embarrassment then before my mother. I stretched myself from the morning vibe and yawning, went forward to take to cleaning myself.
"I'll see you in fifteen minutes by the table honey. Remember you've to leave by 8:15 to reach college on time. And don't ignore bits and pieces of it, because if you do, you might miss breakfast." She said tucking the last corner of the sheets to make the bed look just as a new one. No wonder Indian mothers were a different species. Before I could turn to bargain on my shower time, the room was empty and clean except of me still in the struggles of walking in the bathroom.
After her guidelines, I wasn't sure of to do anything of my body than wash it clean, and be dressed before the set time elapsed. I clothed myself to the shirt and jeans and snickers, and hurried down to the table.
