Erica's POV

I had a smile on my face as I woke up today in the morning.

Sonal is not at home today. She is going to meet her boyfriend, Michael. She will be staying with him for a week.

I am home alone today.

As well as Harry is coming after two days. Finally, I will get to see him, to hug him, to tell him that how much I missed him.

I quickly got a shower and went to the hospital. I thought my day would be a good one today but well reality was much different from expectations.

There were so many patients today. It was really a hectic day and a kid kept refusing to take vaccine which took almost half an hour. Due to this, I was late for lunch and I could only eat half of my meal.

Then, after the lunch when I came back, I had to face which I dreaded the most. I recieved a call from home.

"Good evening mum"

"Good evening. How are you??"

"I am fine", I said. Actually I wasn't fine the whole day and now that you have called me and if this conversation goes to the marriage topic, then this day can't get any worse.

"Eri! Your grandmother can't stop talking about your marriage"

Here we go again!

"I told you mum that I am not ready", I said and let out a frustrating sigh.

"I know kiddo but at least once you should obey her. You always do whatever you feel like. Can't you at least, just for this time listen to us"

"No, I can't. This is the question of my whole life and I am not getting married until I want. You call me selfish for this but I don't care. And if I decide to get married, then it won't be the person you choose, he will be the person whom I love".

"Erica! Are you out of your mind?? Do you think your father will accept you after your love marriage??"

"I don't care mum. If he loves me then he will have to respect my choices. I know he hates it but I will not marry the man whom I don't love", I declared and hung up the call.

She called me again but rejected the call. I wasn't in the mood to argue about this again. It's my life and I have decided what I am going to do.

I stood up from my chair, anger boiling up inside me. I knew I was going to blow up in anger.

I kicked the table in frustration and instantly regretted.

"Damn it!!"

I was now on verge of tears. Not because that my foot was hurting but because I hate arguing with my mother. She is the only one who understands me but in this case, she was also against me. I was just feeling so alone at this moment.

Sonal is not here and Nicole is probably at her cafe. I can't call Harry because he is busy.

My life is fucked. It feels like a mess.

I gathered my things and left the hospital, not caring about anything. I came back home and straight went to my room.

Some tears of anger left my eyes which I wiped roughly. I took a shower. The water running down my body, calming me a bit. I wore my PJs and went to kitchen to eat something.

I was making some toast for me when the doorbell rang.

I thought it might be Nicole but I was completely shocked when I opened the door.
