Lonely Bride by Shikha A (electronic reader .TXT) 📖

I check the fridge and saw there was not enough stock so thought I need to stock up. I took my furry jacket, binny, and gloves and started walking towards the market.

The entire market was lit up due to Christmas tomorrow. I could see a lot of happy faces. Kids were jumping to get the best gift and their parents were laughing. Seeing all this made me happy.

I thought to buy a gift for my granny too, I went to the mall to get something nice. I was looking at so many things but was not getting anything thoughtful, as at this age she has everything so what should I gift her?

And then my eyes stopped on a bookmark. I know my granny love reading so I thought to get a bookmark for her. I bought that and then thought to get something for Sean as well.

But again why should I get it, it’s not like we have any relation between us, it’s been so many months, but he never came to check on me.

This marriage was forced on him, I should not bind him unnecessarily in this relation.

But then my eyes stuck on something and I smile looking at it and bought it.

After finishing my work I went to the house and again and made some dinner and went to sleep.

The next day I got up and finish my business and thought to decorate the house as it's Christmas.

I bought decoration stuff yesterday so I started decorating and in some time, I was done as this house is not that big so in few hours I was all done. I got a small Christmas tree as well which I kept in the corner and decorate with cute little lights. I love lights.

I look around at my hard work and I was more than satisfied with that.

It’s just 11 a.m. and I don’t have anything to do today. I was just thinking only about what to do and my phone ring. I pick up and hear a lady's voice.

“Hello is Miss Sarah Williams Speaking,” Someone asked me

“You are right, how may I help you?” I ask politely

“Miss Williams I am Nancy caretaker of Mrs. Williams” Hearing this my heart skipped a beat.

“Yes Nancy how can I help you?” I asked while little shivering as some kind of a sensation I was feeling in my body.

“Miss Williams I would like you to come to the City hospital as soon as possible” She spoke and worries was visible in her voice

“Is everything alright Nancy?” I asked now I am worried as hell.

“Well mam Mrs. Williams was not feeling well so we brought her to the hospital and doctor has asked presence of family so I called you and Mr. Williams”.

“I will be on my way Nancy thank you” Saying I picking up my phone and book the cab which was available in a minute and picking up my bag I rush towards the door.

I reached the hospital and ask reception were about my Granny and run towards the ICU.

I saw my father was standing and talking to Doctor and two ladies are there crying mess. And at that moment I don’t know what to do or say, I just stood few feet away from my father. He gives me a small glance and went back to talk to the Doctor.

One lady in her 40s came towards me asked “Miss Williams?”

I look at her and nod in agreement.

She got more tears in her eyes than she had previously and said

“I AM SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS”
