D's PoV

Do you guys remember the fact that I don’t have a cell phone? I feel like I’m misplaced in a strange land. I need to get in touch with my sisters, dad, and mom. And most of all I need to tell my fairy tale to my friends. I’m sure they are going to freak out.

Ravi said he is going to resume his college work from Monday and so is uncle and Rishi for their office work. Ravi is in his final year of Engineering. So, it’s just a project for him this year. That is good news for me because he won’t be away all day. I mean I can't stay at home all alone right?!

Right now, my uncle and Ravi are in the drawing hall watching TV. I need someone's phone to call my parents. I went in and sat with them on the sofa. I can’t ask for Ravi's phone. You know, he is a young man and he may not like to share his phone because phones are now considered personal belongings. There are landline connections in almost all rooms but they are just intercoms.

"Uncle, can I have your cell phone for a while? I just have to make a call to dad." I asked, breaking all my inhibitions. They both looked at me like I had grown big horns.

"You left your phone at your parent's?" asked uncle, handing his phone to me.

"Actually, uncle, I never had a phone to myself!" I said sheepishly. I feel so embarrassed to accept this fact.

"Whaat?! You don’t have a cell phone, anni? What are you? An alien?" Ravi literally jumped turning to me.I mentally face palmed myself. I already am embarrassed and he is making it worse.

“Huh! My dad thought that would be a nuisance. You see how beautiful I am! What would I do if love tortures got to me through phone calls?" I winked at him playfully, raising my eyebrows! We all started laughing.

"Hahaha, I will order a phone for you. What do you prefer? Android or Apple?" uncle asked me.

"Please uncle! I will let you know after talking now!"

I don’t want him to buy me a new phone. It’s like taking advantage on the very first day. It’s so awkward. I will ask my dad to buy one for me at least now.

Uncle just nodded his head and said "You are my daughter, kanna! You are no different to me. Just like Rishi and Ravi!"

He must have sensed my discomfort in taking favors from him.
