“I want to get home as soon as possible” the excitement in my voice isn’t new to me.

Every year I and my family celebrate the day we bought this house. 5th May. I have a father, mother and a little brother. I’m the eldest.

“Would you like to tell your details for this lucky draw coupon mam” the supermarket boy asked.

“Yes” cause I can possibly be the happiest girl in this world now.

“Great day girl” the boy shouted as I ran out.

I went to my car and kept everything in the boot. Mom checked the list again before letting me close it. I drove down the alley and reached my simple and lovable house.
“Ma” I sighed as she kissed my forehead before sending me off.

“Come as soon as possible” she told this for the 1000th time from morning.

The sun shone bright. The clouds moved slower than ever. As I drove to my studio my favourite song blared. I reached there just in time and ran into Grace. My colleague and friend who behaves nothing like her name.

“Got a sunny soul?” she roared.
“Think so” I replied while taking the stairs while she waited for the lift.

I took no more than 5 steps before I fell badly on the railings. I still finally reached my studio before Grace. She edits all my drawings and posts them in social media. More or less she is my manager.

The day was pretty cool until I received a plagiarism complaint from another artist Jay.
“IT IS MY WORK! Doesn’t he dare to accuse me like that” I shouted.

“I’ll handle it” Grace’s brother assured. He was a lawyer.

My phone rang from the nearby room. I silented it. Once we sorted it I took my phone. Dad called me 10 times.

“Damn. Sorry guys I got to leave” I rushed out and grabbed my jacket.

My car stood alone in the parking. As I got in I just found that I lost my keys back there. It wasn’t a wise idea to walk for 5 mins and go to the 4th floor and then get my keys and again come all way back. I took a cab.

I tried calling dad but he didn’t pick. I went home with the same excitement as morning. BUT.
