Chapter -23.  A reality check up-2

Ridhima PoV ...

I opened my eyes and a light beam of sunlight caused me to shut my eyes again. All memories were flashed back in my mind , ignoring all thoughts I got up and it was chilling out of the duvet. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and saw a lady with swollen eyes. She looked defeat and broken.her face showed sorrows and spark has lost somewhere.

"You are up" Shikha came in with mug of coffee.

I took the cup from her pulled a jacket from the chair.

"Your breakfast is ready..please have some and I am running late for the work" she ran into the room over here and there, collecting her files.

"You don't have to.." I told her. I felt guilty to relay on her, after all she has excess work to do.

"Shut up and give me good bye hug" I smiled on her childish behaviour and hugged her tight.

"I'll be back at 6.. Till then enjoy your self " she shouted back and closed the door..

I was lucky to have a friend like her. She was with me from the childhood. We did schooling together. Then she choose commerce stream and I medical but we stay connected as glue. She become advisor in PEP enterprises and I choose psychology. I just finished my internship and ready to look for a job. I had 2 or 3 job proposal but skipped them for gaurav's marriage.

I should start job hunting as soon as possible because I can't relay on Shikha for everything. I opened laptop and searched job vacancies of psychologist in different hospitals and my searched disturbed by a door bell.

I opened door and saw a courier man. He asked my name and handed me a small packet.

I opened the packet and saw my phone.. A smile crept on my face and there was a letter inside a packet.

Dear ridhi..
Sorry to send this with courier but I didn't left with any option. Now listen carefully NEVER EVER dumped your phone again.. Got that??
I had some important work so I left for Dubai this morning. I know you need me most in this time but sorry little sister..
It will take time..may be 1 month..
Call me whenever you want.. And please take care of yourself...
Love you..
Yours brother....

I smiled and folded the letter..
I called at many hospitals and to my seniors and aligned appointments after weekend..

It was 2 and i still hadn't my breakfast and my stomach made wonderful sounds. I grabbed the plate from the shelf and stuffed my mouth with the tasty food.
Shikha was always a great chef..

I switched on the TV to time pass and shuffled the channels one by one.
Saw the monster figure on the tv and cursed myself.. I immediately shut off it..

Why ??
Why he still has the same effect on me ??
I want to erase him from my system. He was the first person for whom I fall..
I fall that hard , I forgot my identity for him..
But no more cry Ridhima.. You was a strong girl and now become that girl again..

I shook my head to erase all thoughts of him and decided to made dinner for ridhi.

I cooked for several hours and looked at the time.. It was 6:30 but Shikha told me she will come back at 6..
