                                                             KIM's P O V 

Somehow  I drove back home.   I was totally agitated. Gran was sitting on the couch when I entered the house. She was knitting something.  Without looking up she asked,"How was your first day at school." 

 "Mm........" was all I said. I crossed the room and headed towards the stairs quickly in order to avoid unwanted queries.

Of course I had not  convinced her.My reply was unenthusiastic .I did not halt and started climbing the stairs when I was summoned by her. 

Gosh! No ! was all I thought. I was not in a mood to go through the unwanted session of interrogation.

"Come here Kim. " Gran said. There was concern in her voice. I gave a sigh and turned around to face her. I somehow tried to cover up my bandaged nose. I kept my gaze fixed onto the floor, not able to raise my head to meet her eyes. 

She startled me with a laugh. I looked up relieved. The wrinkles on her face became easily visible . Soon I laughed along with her. She beckoned me.  I ran to her and sat down on the floor putting my head in her lap.

"Oh you are still my little one." She said in a pleased voice. I looked up . She continued, "You still try to hide things from me? Oh you have not grown, a bit still a small child. Hiding your bruises."

"Granny !" , I said. 

"Don't be embarrassed my child. You were the one who used to tell me that I am you best friend. You seem to forget old friends when you make new ones. That's unkind." 

"NO gran. You will be my best fiend. And talking about friends I hardly made any. Just one."

"Oh darling. So you are upset because you couldn't make many friends and that's it, you walked into a pole or something and got  your nose injured. " she laughed .

"Granny NO! I was injured during a basketball match." I sighed as painful memories cropped up. 

"What?" Granny was anxious.

I didn't say anything and looked down.Granny patted my cheeks gently and kissed my hair.

"Physical injuries are nothing . Don't let anyone injure your heart. I will always be there for you . You can share everything with me. Even if I am not there with you I will be there in here...." she placed her palm on my chest. I gave her a weak smile.

"Child you must always listen to your heart. Make decisions carefully. Once a decision is  taken, it cannot be reversed. But if you take a decision and look back in life thinking you took the wrong decision, I recommend you not to regret those decision because it is useless crying over spilt  milk . Just move on in life. Learn from your mistakes. You will fall. But always remember to  stand up and continue your journey with unabated strength." 

She sighed then continued,"Go take a bath. your grandpa will be here any minute. He will not like to see you in this condition. You are drenched. Go and change your clothes."

I placed a kiss on her cheeks and sped off to take a shower. The storm outside subsided replicating the one within me.

I pushed away the negative  thoughts that were  scratching my heart, trying to bruise it.
