Second Chance

Chapter 1

At night, around 9 pm a boy around his 20s standing on a tall building in the city. He is looking miserable. His hairs are messy, eyes are swollen because of crying and is walking forward to the edge of terrace . When he finally reached his destination. He roams his eyes at the beautiful view of the night city. He always liked this view but today its different, his heart is feeling heavy like there is no feeling left. He is feeling like there is no meaning of his life. He just wants to end this miserable Life.

Rain starts pouring.

And he closes his eyes and jumped from the building......

One year ago -

A 22 years old boy sitting infront of computer. He is doing his work then suddenly his colleague said

"Shatak it's already 9 p.m don't you want to go to home."

Shatak said "I am almost done my work, Rishi"

Rishi said "ohh good, then I am going home, Good night. See you tomorrow. "

Shatak said "Good night" and started doing his work. After 10 minutes he is at the parking area of his office and putting his helmet on head and starts his bike to go home.

He is 22 years old software developer who got this job recently and living in rent with his only 7 years old sister Riya. Riya is his only family. His parents died in an accident when he was 18 years old.

Few minutes later Shatak reached his apartment building. He park his bike in and thinking about Riya.

Shatak's thinking "Did she ate her dinner which I put in fridge. I hope she ate and isn't waiting for me."

After few minutes he enters his apartment by spare key. He started to go to his room then he heard some weird noises from the kitchen. He is worridly thinking about Riya "where is Riya? and who is in the kitchen?"

He takes a flower pot from the table and goes to the kitchen and saw that Riya is clutching her stomach, while lying in kitchen floor and crying. He quickly goes near Riya and asked "Riya what happened."

Riya said "I don't know brother. I came for drinking water then suddenly I felt this unbearable stomachache. Brother it hurts."

Shatak said "Did you ate anything"

Riya said "Yes brother"

Shatak said "Maybe because of food poisoning you are having this stomachache. It's all my fault I made you eat this food which I made morning" and started crying.

Riya said "Dont say like this brother" while crying.

Shatak said "We have to go to hospital right now."

Shatak takes Riya to the hospital.

Half an hour later a doctor examines Riya and said

"I gave medicines for now and did some tests. We will get The reports in the morning."

Shatak said "Ok doctor, thank you very much"

Doctor said "It's our duty."

Shatak said "Can I take Riya home now ?"

Doctor said "No , tonight she have to stay here for under observation."

Shatak said "Ok doctor."

He then goes to Riya's room. Riya is sleeping peacefully, this makes a faint smile on shatak's face. He caress her hair softly and said "I am sorry mom and dad. I am not taking care of Riya properly, that's why this is happened. But I promise I will take care of you now on. You are first priority nothing is more important than you. I will work hard and do everything for you." He said while looking at her. The determination can be seen in his eyes. Sometimes later he also fell asleep at sitting on a chair, near Riya .

At morning a doctor is checking on Riya and said "How are you feeling now? Did you feel any pain?

Riya said "I am feeling good Doctor Uncle and also I didn't feel any pain."

Doctor said "That's good."

Shatak said "Dr. What about Riya's report."

Dr. said "Yes, Mr Shatak I have something to discuss about this. So I am waiting for you in my cabin.

Shatak said "Ok Doctor"

Shatak said to Riya "Riya, I am going to meet Dr. uncle, so wait for me here and don't go anywhere."

Riya said "Ok brother"

Shatak said "Good girl" while ruffled her hair.

A few minutes later in dr.s cabin shatak's is sitting in a chair and some papers are in his hands and his eyes are wide open.

What Shatak saw in those reports? What happened to Riya? Why Shatak is shocked? Do you have any idea?
