Mama ji's words shook me to my core. "Ruhanika, your grandmother's health isn't good. You have to come with us."

I stood up, my world spinning. The news was like a stormy cloud, dark and foreboding.

My mind raced back to memories of Nani, her warm smile, and loving embrace. After Mom's passing, Nani had been my rock, my confidante.

Rudra's concerned voice broke through my thoughts. "Rooh,are you okay?"

I felt his gentle touch on my arm, a steady anchor in the turbulent sea of emotions.

Like a leaf torn from its branch, I felt lost and vulnerable. My connection to Nani was more than just familial; she was my lifeline.

Mama ji's worried tone echoed in my mind. "Her condition is critical, Ruhanika. We must leave tomorrow"

I sat on the couch, Mama Ji's words still echoing in my mind. The thought of losing Nani was unbearable.

Akshita's small hand wrapped around me, cupping my cheeks. "Don't worry, warrior princess. Nothing will happen to our queen."

Her gentle touch unleashed a floodgate of emotions. Memories of Mom's loving voice calling me "warrior princess" and Nani being "queen" overwhelmed me.

Tears streamed down my face as Akshita wiped them away, her eyes filled with concern.

I sobbed, feeling vulnerable.

Akshita's arms enveloped me in a warm hug. I clung to her, seeking solace.

The familiarity of her embrace transported me back to childhood memories of Mom's comforting hugs.

My heart ached, missing Mom's reassurance.

Akshita's soft voice whispered, "Don't worry, didi. We're here."

I hugged her tighter, trying to suppress my tears.

Don't be weak, Ruhanika.

But Akshita's gentle touch crumbled my defenses.

In her arms, I felt safe, protected.

Mami ji's reassuring voice broke the spell. "Ruhanika, don't worry. We'll leave at 8:00 am tomorrow morning, okay?"

I nodded, still holding Akshita close.

Mami ji's pat on my shoulder was a gentle reminder of her support.

As I pulled back from Akshita, Rudra's concerned gaze met mine.

His eyes seemed to ask, "Are you okay?"

I forced a weak smile.

Akshita's hug had momentarily eased my anguish.

But the fear of losing Nani still lingered.
