Ma'am starts story telling again

In the story

As a new day dawned, Ruhi woke up a little too early, her weary eyes opening to a glimmer of hope. Despite the lingering shadows of her struggles, she felt a fragile sense of security wrapping around her heart, knowing her loyal friends would always stand by her. Their unwavering support was a beacon of light, guiding her through the darkness.

With renewed determination, Ruhi tossed aside her bedcovers and began her morning routine, the familiar rituals providing a comforting distraction from the pain. As she splashed water on her face, she felt a spark of resilience ignite within her. She packed her bag for school, the mundane task a testament to her resolve to move forward.

Just as she finished, a gentle voice called out from downstairs, breaking the silence and beckoning her to start the day. Ruhi took a deep breath, shouldering her bag and her burdens, ready to face whatever lay ahead, buoyed by the knowledge that she wasn't alone

As Ruhi walked down the corridor, a familiar voice pierced through her fragile composure.

"Good morning, Kesi hai ab?"  Tenna asked,

Ruhi's defenses crumbled, and she couldn't contain her emotions. Overwhelmed, she broke down in front of Tenna, surrendering to tears. "I...I don't know, Tenna," she sobbed, her voice trembling. "I just can't take it anymore. Everything feels so heavy, so hopeless."

Tenna rushed to her side, enveloping her in a warm embrace.

"Yaar, it's okay, roo mat itna" , she whispered softly, trying to console Ruhi.

As Ruhi poured out her anguish, Tenna listened attentively, offering words of comfort.

Between sobs, Ruhi shared her fears, her struggles, and her desperation. Tenna absorbed it all, her expression a mask of empathy and understanding.

Finally, composing themselves, Tenna gently guided Ruhi to their classroom.

As Ruhi entered the classroom, a collective gasp rippled through the students. Her sudden appearance, especially towards the end of the semester, was unexpected. But what shocked them more was Ruhi's transformation. The once-bubbly, mischievous girl was nowhere to be seen.

Ruhi's pale, yellowish complexion and sunken eyes with dark circles told a heartbreaking story. Her frail frame and noticeable weight loss were a stark contrast to her former radiant self. The vibrant spark in her eyes had dimmed, replaced by a haunting emptiness.

Classmates gathered around, concern etched on their faces. Some genuinely cared, while others feigned interest, their words ringing hollow. "Ruhi, what happened?" "Are you okay?" "We missed you!" They bombarded her with questions and platitudes.

Overwhelmed, Ruhi crumpled, her emotions spilling out in her friends' arms. Tears streamed down her face as she struggled to catch her breath. Her body shook with sobs, each gasp a testament to her anguish.
