The mobile phone vibrated crying out a polyphonic ringtone.

AJ woke up
in a flash and pressed the green button of the set.
AJ : Hello,ya S
faint crying sounds were herad on the other side of the phone.after a while the voice
seemed to correct itself as if forcibly trying to speak, clearng up the nasal fluids that was
choking his voice and then he said!mummy is no more!.
AJ said nothing e"cept !ok i am reaching the hospital in #$ mins.hold up yourself!
AJ looked at the mobile after disconnecting and the numbers %.#$ am were waiting to be
noticed.sleep had vanished to hell within seconds.tears rolled down his eyes as the
pictures of his aunt flashed one after another.the moment the call came he knew aunt
had passed away.he composed himself and got ready in no time and started cycling
through the night to the hospital.time seemd to have stopped .he felt as if this &ourney
will not end.anyhow he reached the hospital in #$ mins which seemed like an hour.he
threw his cycle on the pave ment and went running and climbing two stairs and their he
stood motionless as if the owrld had ended.indeed the world had ended for him.S saw
AJ and uncontrolled emotions found their way through their eyes.he hugged AJ and
cried his heart out resting his head on AJ's shoulders.AJ could not have possibly known
how to react.tears were reciprocated and he &ust patted S on his back.Then both went
inside.
