Unbreakable Connections

Two Hearts One Journey

"Hitesh, you need to be on time. She'll be waiting."

"Got it, Hasu!"

Due to a busy day, Haseena couldn't pick her sister up from college, which left Santu feeling upset and angry.

"Look at the time! She promised to be here by 4. And what about her friend? No sense of punctuality at all!" Santu fumed as the clock struck 4:45. Haseena was completely absorbed in her project when a message buzzed in.

"Hasu, I'm really sorry. I couldn't go pick up Santu; I got stuck with something important."

"What?" Haseena checked the time, it was 5:20.

"Oh no!" She quickly grabbed her car keys and dashed toward the parking area, trying to call her sister, but Santu kept declining the calls.

"You're in trouble today, Hasu.."
Haseena said to herself and texted her sister.

"I'm really sorry, kiddo. On my way."

"For your information, I'm on the bus now. I can manage on my own because I'm independent and mature."

"What? Really? Which bus? Where are you now?"

There was no reply. Haseena called again, and this time the call connected.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry..." Before letting santu say anything, her sister started apologizing.

"I'll forgive you, but you owe me a movie and a feast of Pani Puri today. Deal?"

"Arey yaar..what's this kiddo? That's not happening today" Haseena said

"Okay then, don't talk to me." Santu angrily replied

"Okay, okay, fine..now don't make faces"

"How do you know I'm making faces? I'm not.."

"Hihi.. you're because you're my cute lil sister na?"

Though Santu smiled at her sister's comment, she didn't show it up and said

"Hello madam, stop buttering. I'm about to reach the bus stand."

"Perfect, I'll be there in a minute." Haseena replied

"Hey, don't drive too fast!" Santu strictly ordered her sister

"I'm almost there; no worries."

"Yeah, yeah, I know you're fast and furious. Wait a minute, are you talking to me while driving?" Santu quizzed

"Kiddo, I'm on a hands-free call, okay?"

"Cool. Let me get off. It's bus number 500C. Hurry, I can't handle this luggage!"

Haseena hurried to the bus, where she found Santu struggling to get her luggage out.

"What are you doing, idiot?" Haseena scolded as she took the luggage from Santu's hands.

"Why are you scolding me? And why do you keep calling me an idiot?" An offended Santu asked

"Because you are! Eat well..then only you will be strong.."

"Why should I struggle with heavy luggage when I have an assistant?"

"Assistant? In what way, ma'am?"

"You're carrying this luggage, right?" she teased her sister. Just then, someone bumped into Santu. "Are you blind?" she snapped, rubbing her shoulder to ease the pain.

As Haseena walked toward the car, she paused, catching the sound of the banter. "what happened, kiddo?" she asked her sister.

"You're blind! not me.. arrogant girl. Don't try to be oversmart." The guy retorted
