AUTHOR POV

As srishti was soundly sleeping, wrapped up in her cozy blanket, she felt her phone vibrating on the bedside table. The incessant ringing had been going on for the last fifteen minutes, and she was getting more and more irritated by the second. She finally picked up the phone, without even bothering to check the caller ID. "Hello?" she groggily answered.

"Oye Saru, kha hai tu?"(saru, where are you) a loud, familiar voice boomed on the other end. It was Sneha, Srishti's childhood friend, who had a habit of speaking too loudly.

Srishti's eyes shot open, and she sat up in bed, looking at her phone screen in horror. She had forgotten that Sneha was coming to town and that she was supposed to pick her up from the airport.

Before Srishti could even say a word, Sneha continued, "Nahi Maharani, engagement ke bare mein toh bataana bhool gayi thi, toh ab kya, airport par apni pregnant friend ko lene bhi nahi aayegi?"

Srishti's heart sank as she realized the gravity of the situation. She had promised to be there for Sneha, and she had completely forgotten about it. She quickly got out of bed and started getting ready to go to the airport, all the while mentally scolding herself for her forgetfulness

AT AIRPORT

When Srishti finally reached the airport, she began searching for Sneha. She tried calling her several times, but Sneha wasn't answering. After searching for 15 minutes, Srishti spotted Sneha in the ice cream store, licking her ice cream without a care in the world.

Srishti couldn't help but feel irritated as she approached Sneha. As she called her again, she noticed Sneha look at her phone and cut the call before going back to licking her ice cream.

"Sneha here you are I was searching for you for half an hour"her voice filled with irritation. But Sneha seemed lost in her own world, ignoring Srishti's calls as she continued to savor her treat. Srishti knew that Sneha was a stubborn woman, and her current pregnancy hormones only seemed to exacerbate her obstinacy.

"Come on Sneha, we're going to be late," Srishti said, hoping to get her friend to move. But Sneha simply handed her bags to Srishti and started walking ahead without a word. Srishti let out an exhausted sigh as she struggled to keep up with Sneha's brisk pace while carrying her three bags.

As they walked, Srishti couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration and annoyance towards Sneha. She knew that Sneha's pregnancy hormones were responsible for her behavior, but it didn't make it any easier to deal with. This was going to be a long and arduous day, dealing with the irritable and stubborn Mrs. Angry Bird.

Saru could feel the tension in the air as she closed the car door, trying to apologize to Sneha for whatever had transpired earlier. Sneha, however, remained silent and distant, lost in her own thoughts.

"Sneha, please, look at me. I'm sorry, okay?....... Let's go get some golgappas, your favorite. It'll make you feel better," she said, hoping to entice her friend with the prospect of the delicious street food.
