Now it's been a month since they returned  from the mission. Everything was fine and normal till 2 days but in the third day HM started behaving odd. It was like she is lost somewhere, in someone, in another place. But again after 2 days she stared to acted normal. They thought it was because she was missing Ammi. But somehow they too knew something was going on inside her head.

Tough she used to put her 200% in every work as usual. But she now struggled more to smile. HM who used to put a sweet smile in her face even in her most difficult times, somehow forget to smile. She used to smile in-front of everyone but everybody knew she is faking it.

Like wise, after a month, Santu had to make HM sign in the paper to send in the headquarter very urgently. So, she went in her cabin.

Nobody used to go in her cabin in that time as she used to take break for half an hour. Nobody knew what she used to do in that half an hour but it used to refresh her. SS was first to enter in her cabin in that time. Then the thing she saw made her very surprised. She silently called everybody and looked by hiding from outside.

HM was happy and was smiling (not the fake one). She had plugged earphones in her ear which was joined to the camera. Everybody was very happy as they never saw HM this relax in past few weeks. But suddenly, tears started to flow from her eyes. She was going to open her eyes. Every body noticed it, and hide completely.

(She didn't knew everybody was looking at her.) then she rubbed her tears took a deep and long breath, put that camera in her drawer and again continued to do her work.

They pretended that they didn't saw anything. They were just happy and everyday in that half an hour everybody used to peak in her cabin. They saw that always she used to put her earphones, connected to the camera and see someone's video. At last 3 minutes she used to close her eyes and smile and tears automatically flow from her eyes.

No one knows that what she used to watch or knew why she smile or cry.

After 1 months and 2 weeks

It was raining out side. AS had came for routine visit and was signing weekly reports. Suddenly, a man came running towards the thana all wet because of rain. He didn't had umbrella or raincoat. Everybody recognized him except HM. Yup! It was Rohan Basu. (The guy they gave lift)

KS was silent only because HM ordered her not be angry on someone until next day. But as you know she is KS so her 1 glare was enough to make them silent.
