CHERRY BLOSSOM

*21*

Sara's eyes blurred. She whimpered

"M-Mumma.. " Cindy looked at her, she smiled and opened her arms. Sara started crying and ran to her. Cindy kissed her daughter's head. Dew also joined the hug. The brother sister was smiling, crying. All were smiling.

Sara sniffed, "Mum... Walk na please show me.. Please" Cindy chuckled. She stepped front. She needs to take baby steps. Sara was cheering her mom by jumping. All were clapping.

Cindy walked a bit and exhaled. But she was happy she can stand in her feet now. She can stand and give her son blessing. She can walk around freely now. She smiled

See hubby... I'm again walking on my own... I told you na.. That I'll stand up again Cindy was looking at picture which have Cindy and her husband. Her husband died on that car accident. But she promised her husband she'll stand up again before her husband's loose his last breath.

She again started walking. Sara was happily dancing around with her brother. Cindy sat on a chair.

"Thanks to the doctor who saved my life"

Sara stopped. She forgot about Tina, she looked around.
"Where's the doctor mum?"

"At your hidden place dear"

Sara ran out side. She saw Tina was sitting on the swing swinging back and forth.

"DOCTOR!!"

Tina looked up, she stopped the movement, she stood up and smiled. Sara ran to her and hugged her. She picked Tina up, started twirling. Tina laughed, she tapped Sara's shoulder to keep her down.

Sara put her down. Both looked at each other. Tina nodded her head asking what happened. Sara smiled brightly, she hugged Tina. Tears started falling from her eyes, Tina rubbed her back.

After some time, they pulled away, Sara took Tina's hand and dragged her inside the house. Tina was confused. Sara pointed at a direction, she happily said to Tina looking at her with glittery shiny eyes

"Mom is walking again.. "

Tina looked at that direction. Her lips cracked a smile, Cindy was walking slowly. Dew was holding her one hand to support her. Sara ran to her, again started jumping and dancing. Cindy laughed.

But Tina.
"When will you come back baby?"
"I'll come back after madam Cindy recovers dad"
"Are you sure"
"Yes dad"

It was when Tina didn't even meet this family. She told her dad about her job and duration. But now things changed. Her heart was shaking. Her eyes were on one person who was laughing and jumping.

I... I have to leave you Sara. My time is over... But.. But I want you to hold me back... Tina thought.

Sara looked at her, she came to Tina.

"Thank you so much doctor... Thank you thank you... Thank youuuuu" Sara embraced Tina. Tina hugged her immediately. Sara smiled.
"Now mom is walking again doctor.. You're the best doctor... My mom is again walking that means--"
Sara stopped.

Her smile fade away slowly. Tina's hug tightened.

"Your job is done Doctor" Tina hummed. Sara pulled away, Tina's eyes were glistening. Both were looking to each other. Tear dropped from their eyes simultaneously.

Will you leave me Tina? Please don't leave me...

Will you let me go Sara? Please hold me back...

"Ai both of you come here.. "

Their stare broke when Cindy called them. Tina looked at Cindy. She went to her. Cindy embraced her.
