Sometimes obstacles become our companion

"Stella..Stella.." shouting aunt in a very loud voice.

Stella was sleeping on her tiny bed.Her room was very tiny which was on the terrace and it was on the 2nd floor.

"Yes,Aunty.I am coming." with a exhausted voice.Because she had worked hard a lot while cleaning a huge duplex house of her Uncle and Aunt at night.

"Are you still sleeping?" her aunt shouted again.

"I am on my way." saying that Stella came downstairs with a messy braid in her hair.She was wearing a pink trouser and loose yellow t-shirt. She was stepping very fast.Because she was late.She needed to make breakfast for her aunt,uncle and cousin.She was afraid she would be scolded badly by her aunt and was shaking from inside with a speedy heartbeat.Suddenly,she fell on the floor of ground floor while walking.

"Hey,you!why you were sleeping till now?Answer me.Don't you know I have to reach in office at time?And what about your uncle?He needs to catch a meeting?And Jack?What about him?He needs to catch the classes at 8am.And now it is 7:30.How can he manage?" Her aunt mrs.Lily was uttering everything in a row with a very loud voice.

Stella was on the floor cause her knees were hurting.She was listening her aunt as she was doing something usual.Listening to bitter words and loud voices were like her daily activities.Sometimes her uncle,sometimes her aunt and sometimes her cousin Jack shouted at her regularly.

"I am do..ing..sorry.I was too tired last night." in a low and obedient voice.

"Stop..stop.Don't say anything.Just go inside and make an omelette for Jack.Me and Taylor will have breakfast at office." she was shouting again.

"O..kk." Rubbing her knees,she was going inside of the kitchen.

In the kitchen,she was in a hurry and made omelette in 2 minutes to serve Jack.Jack was a student of University and was only 2 years senior than Stella.

"Jack,breakfast is ready." she said.

Jack came downstairs from his room which was the only room of 1st floor.

"What the hell were you doing?Mom was shouting for 3 minutes.But you didn't replied.Also because of you I need to go to classes today.I was planning to sleep." He was angry and was having his breakfast very fast.

"I was tired.I slept at 3am after finishing cleaning up everything. Remember you were having party with your friends and made the whole living room dirty." Stella said this with a red eyes and from under her eyelashes which was covering partially with her messy hair.

"Don't need to mess with me.Cause you know at last you will have to suffer." grabbing her soft arms with his strong irony hands.

"Ahh...hhh...You are hurting me." This time tears were coming from her eyes though she was used to with their bitter behaviour.

"Say sorry" with a iron voice.

"So...rr..y." She said unwillingly to stop him grabbing her hand.

Jack this time pushed her on the floor and left the place.

Stella was alone at this time.She was on the floor for a while to endure everything.Suddenly she thought of having a bread for breakfast.Having breakfast she went to her room and took her school dress from the shelf she has.She got ready very fast cause her school was at 9am.
