Heart me ❤💫

Chapter 1

It was a winter morning.

A girl was seen sleeping on a hospital bed. Her hair was tied in a loose ponytail. She looked pale because of huge blood loss. She looked like the sleeping princess who's waiting for her prince to wake her up from deep  slumber. But no one knew what was going inside her head. Finally she opened her eyes, looking at the ceiling trying to realise the unfamiliar surrounding. When she was about to get up the nurse came running towards her.

Nurse- Ma'am you aren't still recovered completely please lie down.
The girl noded and lied down again, she didn't have the strength to argue further.
The nurse went to inform the doctor about her waking up.
The doctor came hurriedly.
Doctor- Thank God! You survived through the accident but unfortunately we couldn't save the baby.

The girl looked up with an emotionless face and said, "It's ok it wasn't your fault maybe it was my destiny." She faked a smile and lied down again. She looked as if she didn't care but deep down she was shattered into pieces.

The doctor couldn't get the reaction, he expected her to yell at him but nothing like that happend. He went outside. After sometimes, a girl barged into the room. She had tears in her eyes.

She mumbled looking at the girl lying down - Shehnaaz.....

Shehnaaz got up seeing her best friend Shruti looking at her with tearful eyes.

Shruti couldn't hold herself anymore and took Shehnaaz into a hug.

Shruti- I was so scared when I heard about the accident...I...I thought I lost you.

She was stammering between her sentences. Her eyes were red indicating she had been crying for a quite long time.

Shehnaaz hugged her back- Hey, stop crying look at me I'm perfectly fine. It was just an accident.

Shruti broke the hug and looked at her shocked.

Shruti- Just an accident ? U nearly died and u fucking lost your baby..... how... how are you so calm about it ?

Shehnaaz- I have experienced worse than this. Haven't I ?

Shruti couldn't believe Shehnaaz. Of course how could she ? Her best friend who used to cry over a dress she couldn't purchase now is acting all matured and couldn't care less about her lost child. But as her best friend she knew Shehnaaz won't show it even if she's broken inside. Shruti didn't ask anything further, she sat down on the chair beside the hospital bed.

Shehnaaz- So ? How long I have been in here ?

Shruti- A week ?

Shehnaaz widened her eyes and almost shouted.

Shehnaaz- WHAT ? What about college ? Oh god there must be pending assignments too.

Shruti- I can't get you sometimes. You should care about your health first rather than those assignments.

Saying she rolled her eyes.
Shehnaaz took a deep breath.

Shehnaaz- Okay, now tell me when am I getting discharged ?

Shruti- Today evening.

Shehnaaz sighed a relief and was about to get up when Shruti held her from her shoulders.

Shruti- Where are you going ?

Shehnaaz- Washroom, will you lead me there ?

Shruti noded her head and held her best friend from her shoulder and waist and walked up to the washroom.

Shehnaaz looked at the washroom mirror and cursed herself for her fate.
Being an orphan she never received parent's love, finally when she was happy in her life. Again fate played with her. She wanted to cry and vent out her emotions but she was holding herself. She didn't want to break down in front of her best friend. Was she ashamed ? Maybe, but there was another reason. Shruti already had things going on in her life. Shehnaaz didn't want to make things difficult for her. She went out and didn't find Shruti anywhere. Shruti went to receive a call from her mother because she had been staying in the hospital for a week. Her mother knew Shruti loves Shehnaaz as her sister which is more than a mere best friend so she allowed her to stay.
