The Seed You Threw
Chapter 20

Dev arrives at the slum, carrying a scrap of paper in hand. He matched the address on that piece of paper. Dev saw a very shabby building, but it was quite clean of dust.

"Is this his house?" ask Dev himself. "Excuse me" said Dev.

The door opened, and a female figure appeared. "Yes, find who?" ask the woman who was none other than Neha.

"Is this really home, Krish?" ask Dev.

"Krish? Who, Krish? I've lived here long enough, but there's no such thing as Krish here" Neha replied.

"Oh yeah? But this isn't the address here?" Dev showed me the piece of paper.

"Yes, this is the address. But you're wrong people, I live alone with my husband here" Neha explained.

"Oh, so yeah. Do you know me?" ask Dev again.

Neha shook her head. "I'm sorry, I don't know you" Neha replied. Then he looked back, hoping that the person inside did not make any more noise until the man became suspicious.

"Alright, sorry I've interfered." Dev eventually resigned. But he kept looking at the rundown house. The passionate spirit in fact vanished, the person who gave him the address turned out to be lying to him. It was in vain to pay him dearly.

Kiran breathed a sigh of relief, she was forced to smother Krish's mouth so as not to make a sound.

"Mommy, who's coming? Why do we have to hide, is he a bad guy?" asked Krish innocently.

"Yes, honey. He's the bad guy that's gonna tear us apart, from now on don't go out without Aunt Neha, okay?" kiran.

"Yes, Mommy. From now on I'm going to recede, I don't want Mommy to be mad at me anymore" Krish said. "But when did Mommy bring me meat again? It's been a week I've only eaten bread without filling, bored, Mommy" Krish lamented.

"Today Mommy gets a wage, Mommy will buy you some meat" Kiran said.

"Yes, Mommy will buy everything for you. You're pretty sure what Mommy and Aunt Neha said" Kiran explained.

Neha who was there always shed tears when she heard the conversation of the mother and child. Very worrying, I want to help. But ever since the fire happened, it's made his life so peaceful. He also fought together to live.

"Neha, is he really gone?" ask Kiran.

"I think he did, he believed my words" Neha replied. "Then I have to go home, I have to cook. My husband's gonna be pissed if he finds out I haven't prepared a meal for him."

"Thank you, Neha. You're so good," Kiran said.

"Stop saying thank you, I'm tired of hearing it." Kiran just smiled.

"If you don't mind taking Krish to your house, I'll leave for a while. I won't be long, I just go to buy food for, Krish," Kiran said.

"Horry." Krish prancing around in pleasure. "Yes, come on" Krish asked Neha.

"Look, your son is so excited." Neha laughed at the boy. "Go, me and Krish will go, too" Neha said.

"Alright, wait for Mommy to come home. Mommy's gonna pick you up." Before leaving Kiran kissed Krish's head.

Kiran was at the food store, she chose whatever food she would buy. As per Krish's request, he bought meat-filled bread as well as fruit and everything else. Today he bought quite a lot of food, in order to satisfy his son.

Kiran smiled on the way home. Today he is happy because the wages obtained are quite large than before. Kiran came home on foot, because her wallet was pretty drained. But it's okay, it's all for Krish's sake.

While on the road, there was a smashing car and it almost hit Kiran. But lucky he could escape. But the car hit a tree. The streets were quiet enough that no one helped. Kiran finally approached the car that was in the accident. The car was emitting smoke from the front of the car.

Kiran tried to open the car door by grabbing the hook from the slightly open window. Kiran managed to open the door, then pulled the body that fell on the steering wheel, how surprised Kiran was when she saw the driver who had the accident.
