I watched as they wheeled her out, covered in white just as they wheeled the ones before her. Though it always happens, it never gets old. The sadness seems to never leave. The family will begin to wail after hearing the news and would leave with a broken heart and with images of the body of a dead child forever etched in their memory

I walked to my office avoiding the possible corridors the dead persons family is so I'll be in peace

I entered my ice cold office and sat down on my couch staring into space. The patient, Husna, had come to know of her heart disease too late and we had to perform an emergency transplant but she died before it could even begin. The angel of death was already in our midst as we began to open her up. Waiting for the time to take her soul. She was just 25 years of age

Finally, my shift was over and I packed up and left the hospital heading home. My refugee but not really my refuge. Dad had passed away years ago due to cardiac arrest and Ammi remarried. I have an elder brother Raqib who is married to Zaina bhabi and lives in New York while my little brother Malik is in an elite school in New York, boarding house

The usual October breeze hinting winter. My favorite season

I opened the door saying salaam, the house is probably empty except for the cat who is probably asleep somewhere

I locked the door behind me and grabbing a chocolate ice cream, I went upstairs to my room. Ice cream heals broken hearts they say and I need that right now

I devoured the ice cream and prayed then slept

❄❄❄

I entered the office the same way I've done for the past year bout unlike the first day, I entered with a sad heart

I went over to the receptionist Veera, she's been here before I joined and she lost a kid Ina car crash a few years back. She's one of the strongest people I know

"As Salaam alaykum Veera"

"Waalaykum salaam Zahra, there's a meeting today,  the world renowned neurosurgeon and business man is here"

Ridwan Sydeek. A visiting doctor that's gonna be here for three months and the talk of the whole hospital and paparazzi for the past month. He's extremely rich

"Please what time?" I asked

"10am which is in ten minutes. Run along girly. Good luck"

"Thanks Veera" with that I left
