Chapter 8 - Spilled connection

Sleepy Meera doesn't want to move a nail on sundays and Mytri making all possible sounds to wake her up.

Meera yells at her, "Stop it already, I'm up".

Mytri gives a cringy smile from kitchen.

As Meera comes down to kitchen she gets a call, she replies,

"What?","when?","which hospital?","we'll be there in an hour " and ends the call.

Mytri turns with the cooker head in her left hand and asks, " What's the matter "

"Mom" replies Meera.

And they hurriedly rush to go.

In the hospital :

Meera and Mytri sitting next to their mom, beside the hospital bed.

"What happened amma(mom), I got a call from aunt and we rushed here" says Meera.

"Nothing serious as you can see" says mom with a adorable smile.

Mytri pats mom and asks," Are you taking your pills ontime?".

Mytri's words seemed sweet but her eyes were scary.

Mom turns towards Meera and says," I'm the mom, ask her to behave like a daughter".

Meera sees the empty bottle and asks Mytri to get it filled, while indirectly protecting mom from angry Mytri.

Mytri walks out without arguing further.

In the hospital's lobby:

As Mytri put the water bottle under the tap she hears some people talking about a famous person visiting the hospital.

Then she gets a call from Preetham asking if her mom was doing well.

Mytri replies,"Ya, she is fine now, she just fainted because of her low BP".

She takes the filled bottle and walks passing the hospital entrance.

"You don't have to come. Me and Meera are enough for now" she says and put back her phone in her pocket.

And a BANG!!

Mytri bumped into Sathya Vedic who was accompanied by some men and the water bottle spills on the floor.

Sathya apologise as he moves forward and Mytri is spellbound looking at his strange behaviour of not recognising her.

She stares at him until he gets disappeared from her eyesight.

Mytri bends to pick the half emptied bottle and hears the sound of high heels walking towards her.

Mytri picks the bottle and turns towards the entrance where she sees Pooja sharma walking like she owns all the class in the universe.

When Pooja neared Mytri she asks,"How are you doing Mytri?, long time no see!".

Mytri responds with a clam smile," We just happened to come today ".

"Is anybody hurt?" she questions Mytri for being at a hospital.

"Ya, mom just got fainted, nothing serious " replies Mytri.

"That's a relief " says Pooja.

"I think you have much more to do rather than talking to me" says Mytri.

Pooja points to the bottle cap and her secretary picks it up for her.

"I'll be going then, nice meeting you again" says Pooja while giving her the bottle cap.

As she left Mytri sighs looking at her bottle and tuns back to fill it.
