Intro

Later that night

Nayantara: I'm home!

Mrs. Reis: Welcome back! How was your day?

Nayantara: Hectic as usual. *jumps on couch*

Mrs. Reis: Hey! At least change & freshen up.

Nayantara: Too tired, Mama... Can you please bring me something to eat?? I'm starving!

Mrs. Reis: Fine. Wait right here.

... : You finally decided to show up. *coming downstairs*

Nayantara: *looks up* Don't talk to me, sis, I'm mad at you!

Luna: Now, what happened to my cutie? *sits*

Nayantara: You knew I didn't want to go to the camp, yet you suggested my name & today Chief assigned me as a Leader. He even mentioned you wanted that??

Luna: He's right. I did. What is wrong with it? You're so capable more than you think. If you don't explore, you'll never find out.

Nayantara: I don't want to. My only goal & dream was to save people & I accomplished it. People are getting treatments whenever they're needed in our hospital. I don't need to know anything else.

Luna: I'm not saying that... By going there, you'll be doing what you wanted, saving people for free. You know, you're a capable doctor & trust me this camp will change your life!

Nayantara: Yeah, yeah. I didn't want to leave this place because I felt like I shouldn't go.

Luna: You can't avoid people who need you just because you feel like that. It's your duty.

Mrs. Reis: Now, you two. Stop fighting. If she doesn't want to go, why are you insisting Luna?

Luna: Mama?? It's an opportunity for her to do what she wanted.

Mrs. Reis: Okay, I give up. Let her eat first, then continue your argument.

Nayantara: Mama, you gave up that easily? *shocked*

Mrs. Reis: Well, what do you want me to do? Whatever I say, at the end of the day, you two are gonna get together & I'll remain the only villain. *shrugs*

Luna: *laughs* Okay, okay. We stop here.

*Tara's room*

Nayantara: I should start packing, although we don't know exactly when we'll leave...

Luna: *comes in* What are you doing?

Nayantara: Trying to fit in the mess you put me through??

Luna: Come on, Tara. *helps Tara* But why did you start packing stuff now? The date is yet to be decided.

Nayantara: Just in case I forget something, I'll be needing there... You know how forgetful I'm.

Luna: Okay, let me help you. Also, I got something for you.

Nayantara: What is it?

Luna: That's a secret! I'll give the day you leave.

Nayantara: Fine!

Luna: Tara, can I ask you something?

Nayantara: Do you even need to ask? Go ahead!

Luna: Building this hospital was your idea, from buying lands to permissions you took care of it. Then why did you make me the executive?

Nayantara: Sis, you're included in the medical field whether you practice or not. Since you're "free," I thought a way to keep you busy. Besides, it's lots of responsibilities & my weak body & mind can't handle them.

Luna: *done face* For real? You practically did everything & now you say you're too tired to take responsibilities?? *pulls ear* Or should I say too lazy & negligent??

Nayantara: Ouch! Sis, you're hurting me. MAMA!!!

Luna: Shut up! You're not a kid.

Nayantara: Okay, okay. *giggles* Jokes apart. When are we leaving?

Luna: We've to decide that & as you already know, we're waiting for an investors' approval though others agreed.

Nayantara: Okay.

...Author...

Hello everyone! I'm finally back with a new story. First, l apologize for taking such a long time... I was sick & went through lots of ups & downs that I couldn't continue writing. My first chat story, "You'Re My Destiny Once I Had Fallen In Love," will return as I have already started working on upcoming episodes. Meanwhile, I had a new idea to publish this one as a novel & it's completely different from my writing genre as it includes complete dark romance. I hope you guys enjoy it & I kept a bit short this chapter as I'll give a few introductions of each character, of course, not all of them. But definitely the ones we'll frequently meet. Thank you & Enjoy!
