CHAPTER-23

NYC

"I don't believe,we have cancelled all our plans and are only shopping since day one good enough for 3 years",Geet said as we headed out of the 15th store of the day.

"You're and isn't it fun?After all these bad days,I deserved this and plus I got a hike and I didn't find a better way to spend my money",I said as I checked the time and it was 10pm.
"Gosh!Geet it's 10 already,we didn't have our dinner yet and what about tomorrow?Are we going sight seeing or shopping?"

"Let's have dinner first",she said unintrested.

"Then let's go to our hotel room",I said.

"I wanna ask you something",she said bluntly.

"What?"

"See I want you to truly move on,you don't deserve all this and next time when I say we should go to england you would come along with me,it shouldn't affect you anymore,like you shouldn't refrain from going to england or doing something just because he is involved",she ended on a serious note.

"Why are we even talking about Stefan?It's not that easy Geet and I love him,I know we don't have a future together and you have no idea how much it hurts and you want me to do something which my heart cannot take".

"Okay,no man can match his standards and let's say there is no man better than him that doesn't mean you can't fall for another guy who might not be as perfect as him but just nice".

"You won't understand,just let it go from your mind.I'll deal on my own."

"OMG!Look at that Kritika,she needs our help"Geet yelled at the top of her voice.A girl probably 17 or 18 was run down by a vehicle and was lying on the road and she probably lost a lot of blood.The road was desserted and there was no one around to help us.The girl was unconscious and she neither had any identity proof nor a mobile so that we could contact her family.

"Let's get her to the hospital now"and luckily our vehicle just arrived there.We loaded her inside and headed to the hospital.

2 hours later,

"But for you girls,that girl must have lost her live",said the doctor with an expression of gratitude."She is fine now,you can go talk to her.She got a little fracture on her wrist and has minor bruises on her hands and feet but she is conscious,go talk to her and try to contact her family if possible".

"Thank you doctor."

We stepped inside the general ward and approached to her bed,where she was lying with her eyes half closed.

"Hey.Are you alright?",I said smiling warmly.
"I'm Kritika and this is my friend Geet and we got you to the hospital, don't worry you are safe around us,let us know if you need anything."

"Hi Kritika",a wide smile broke on her face and that badly injured girl looked really happy somehow.
"I'm Violet and thank you for saving me on time",she replied politely.

"It's better if we contact your family,so can I get your parent's number?I must inform them",Geet said.

Violet gave her sister's phone number and Geet went outside the ward to contact her.

"You guys are from India right?How did you end up here?",she asked me and her face was covered with some unknown excitement.

"We are just on a trip",I replied.
"What were you doing alone on that desserted place so late at night?",I asked her with concern.
"I don't know how it goes here but in India it's totally unsafe for girls on such desserted places".

"I was at my friend's place,I had gone to invite her to my sister's wedding which is next week and btw my sister is getting married to an Indian.I would be glad if you come too",she said answering my doubts regarding her wierd excitement.She was excited because I was an Indian and since her sister was getting married to one,she was surprised.

"Wow".
"Yeah, I'll try my best to be there",I said assuring her.
"Tell me about you,are you a student?"

"Yes,I'm in high school,senior year and we stay in London.We are here for my sister's wedding since she wanted to get married here".

"Yes,I knew that from your accent",I said smiling.

"I guess you are familiar with difference in accents",she said smiling.

"Yeah,I had friend who was from England and he pretty much sounded like you",I said fixating my eyes on her broken wrist.

"There are my sisters",she said looking in another direction.

I saw two elegantly dressed and beautiful ladies approaching us.One looked a little older and may be she was the one who was getting married,her name was Isabella and her sister April looked around 20 or 21.

"We couldn't thank you enough for saving Violet"Isabella said holding my hands while April handed some roses to Geet.

"I had no idea that you were going to your friend's place.You could have taken me along but instead you decided to do it alone in this new place",April said scolding Violet.

"Thank you so much girls for saving our little sister",Isabella thanked us again.
"We would be delighted if you attended my wedding next week.Well the wedding is next week but all other functions, ceremonies are starting tommorow and here is the invitation card",she gave us the invitation.

"Sure.We have been missing indian food for quite a while now and I guess we need to do more shopping",Geet chuckled.

"The wedding is according to Indian rituals first and then we are getting married according to our rituals and tommorow we have mehendi ceremony and you guys are cordially invited",she said as a wide smile broke on her face.

"We'll be there',I promised.
