Rose Day

The very special week has started with the cold breeze of February month, and the same moment a very special girl, Dr. Shilpa Malhotra clad in a red suit entered inside Sanjeevani.

She was looking beautiful to the eternity and no one took his eyes off from her. A smile curved on her innocent face and she rotated her eyes everywhere, to inspect the whole hospital, which was looking even more beautiful than a bride.

The large sized greetings and the rose buds were tucked all over the hospital.

Her smile widened and she mumbled, "Wow!"

And immediately, she clarified the reason for the decoration from nurse passing from her side, "Umm! These decorations are for what?"

"Don't you know? Today is a Rose day", the nurse replied with a smile.

"Oh!", Shilpa exclaimed and mouthed a thank you to her.

Shilpa was passing through the corridor to reach the locker room, but in the path, she noticed that nurses, ward boys even patients were gifting flowers of different colors to each other. Red, yellow, white, pink, purple all were the gracing the day with their eternal fragrance and beauty.

Shilpa entered inside the locker room and her smile changed into a grin when she noticed that Armaan, her childhood friend was there, from whom she was somewhere expecting a rose.

Armaan smiled when his eyes shifted on her and said, "I've something for you"

She was now confirmed that it will be a rose, so she smiled but her smile vanished when he forwarded a rose in her direction but a white rose, the symbol of peace.

Shilpa's mouthed opened in a O shape and she clenched her jaw, "Ye kya hai?"

"Rose", he casually replied.

"A white rose!", she corrected him and arched her brow.

At which Armaan mocked, "Haan so what? Tumhe shanti ki zaroorat hai, humesha naak pe gussa rehta hai tumhari" 

"Go to hell!", she cursed him and get seated on the bench lying aside her with a gloomy face.

He too sat beside her and shrugged her shoulder with his and cheekily said, "Shona!"

She glared him and twisted her lips aside in anger.

"By the way, this was just a joke, I was about to offer you this", Armaan slowly spoke out.

Shilpa smiled lightly and shifted her eyes towards him. She again shifted her eyes at him and again found a rose, a yellow rose.

She looked at him, as she will pierce her eyes in his and smiled fake, "Yellow rose"

"Hmm! After all we are JUST friends", and looked aside to smirk.

She immediately left the bench and shrieked, clutching her waist, "Mallik ke bacche!"

"Bahut cute honge", he retorted back with a wink and continued himself with fake innocence, "But why are you over-reacting? Yellow roses are the symbol of friendship which we share"

Shilpa left her waist and picking the yellow rose and to avoid looking at him she turned, at which he smirked and left.

With his exit she asked herself, "Why was I upset?", and bit her lower lip.

Almost an hour later, Shilpa opened her case file and found a pink rose bud inside it. She picked the rose in her hand and found that a note was tucked inside the file on the pink paper.

Shilpa removed it and started reading it in her mind.

She examined the note carefully to check but no name or sign was there to let her know who has tucked it inside.

She recited the words she continued, "Who might have sent this?", and bit her lip in confusion.

"It's a typed note, otherwise I could have recognized it by handwriting", she mumbled in her mind.

Almost the evening passed with the confusion that why she was upset when Armaan gifted him a yellow rose. After all they were just friends.

In all this disarray, she almost forgot about the attached rose, in fact she has accepted that it might have been a mistake by the person, who attached the rose.

Shilpa reached the canteen counter to order her favorite coffee, but before she could order the canteen boy handed the steamed coffee with an orange rose, with again a note on orange paper.

She gave a deadly glare to the canteen boy and narrated the note.

Shilpa was burning with anger so she shrieked at the canteen boy, "So you are sending this to me"

Looking at her red angry face the canteen boy gulped down and whispered, "No ma'am! Wo apka order kisi aur ne pehle hi kar diya tha"

"What! Who the hell he was?", she yelled loudly.

He closed his eyes tightly and said, "I don't know! My back was facing him.", and he bit his lip.

She shrugged his hand and retorted back, "Koi tumhe kuch bhi deke jayega, to tum uski baat maan loge", and she threw the flower and note in the dustbin.

"Idiot!", she cursed him and left the spot.

Shilpa calmed herself down as she was finally entering to the children wards, her favorite area of the whole hospital, and she wanted to share the lovely moments with the kids not her anger, so she cooled herself down.

"Shona di!", all the cute little kids ran in her direction.

"Shona Di! Today is rose day", a chubby 6 year old girl said cheekily.

Shilpa rolled her eyes and thought, "Sab ke upar rose day ka bhoot chad gaya hai", and shrugged her neck.

"Shona Di", the kids took her back.

And the little girl continued herself, "I've a rose for you", and curved her lips in a perfect U shape.

Shilpa giggled at the antics of girl and accepted the peach color rose from her hand.

"Thank you!", Shilpa replied pecking her cheek.

But the little girl pouted and said, "This is not from my side"

"But YOU are giving this", Shilpa clarified.

The little girl smacked her head and replied, "I'm just giving buddhu! Not gifting", she said as this was so obvious.

"Then who the he--", Shilpa was about to say hell but stopped and continued, "Who is gifting this to me"

"Read the note!", the little girl gave a peach color note to her and ran while chuckling with her friends.

Shilpa read the note loudly,

Shilpa's rage was on the seventh cloud and she grabbed the little girl's hand.

"Who gave this note to you", Shilpa asked in a strict tone to her.

"Maine!!", A male voice came from behind.

Shilpa turned her back to teach the loafer, according to her a lesson but his face was hiding with a huge bouquet of red roses.

She unclad his face while moving the bouquet aside and the face of the person skimmed out.

Shilpa's anger changed into the shock when she realized that the man who was giving the roses with love notes was none other than the person who gifted the first rose to her, in the whole day, Armaan Mallik.

Her eyes were popping out from their sockets with utter shock.

"Arent you going to read this note", he asked while pointing to the red roses.

"Huh!", she came to the reality and picked out the note from the roses.

Shilpa's face bloomed just like the fresh red rose and her eyes started shining whereas he started stepping towards her and huskily whispered in her ear, "I LOVE YOU", he almost spell each word out and confessed.

"I love you too", her lips immediately spilled these three words out.

And with the cheerful claps of the kids they came back from their land of love which made them embarrass.

Shilpa hid her face while blushing just like the color of the roses of the bouquet whereas Armaan pleaded the children to not make noise and anyone else aware about it, while folding his hand and bribing them.

At which Shilpa laughed out loud but he pouted. And the children again clap at which they both pleaded them to not make noise.
