Now both the parents are performing the rituals while waiting for their son to come and see her for the last time. Relatives came, paid respects and went their way. After that they wanted to inform her friends about her death but when they opened her phone, they noticed that she has only 8 contacts which were her mother,father, brother and 1 friend from middle school, 1 from high school and 3 others from the college she recently Studied at.
There were no other contacts indicating that their daughter either is an outcast or prefers quality over quantity. And they contacted her friends and told them about her death, everyone said they may or may not be able to attend the funeral as they recently joined their jobs and they may not be able to apply for a leave and they received no reply from one contact.
Seeing that the grim reaper asked," How old are you?" " 23" She replied."23?! Aren't u too young? And are you close to any of your friends?" " The one who has not replied, I used to be close with her".
11 YEARS AGO
Today is 1st day of Aria's Middle school life, she was nervous becoz she is an introvert and she can't speak well and others make fun of her often. She walked towards the notice board to look for her class and she went to meet her class teacher, there she received a uniform and instructions regarding classes and some stuff,while she is walking towards her classroom, someone tapped her shoulder, when she looked back, she saw a beautiful girl,smiling and waving at her, " Hi, I have something to tell you, the uniform and the receipt you have received are mine, they got misplaced when I went for bathroom, I have yours with me, so can you give my belongings back?" Aria was stunned, she has never seen someone talking to her,that to this close. As she was in a daze, the girl waved at her and brought her back," Umm my uniform?" She said.
Aria immediately gave her uniform back and took her own from her, after seeing the name tags, she thought 'Oh we have same names'
Then she heard her saying," We have same names, I haven't seen that until now, Hello nice to meet u Aria lopez, My name is Aria Lawrence" and she shook hands with Miss soul and said," Since we have same names, let's be friends", while she accepted gladly.
From then on, they were inseparable and they went to many trips together and their bond became strong and Aria's Middle school life was over and both entered their high school life.
At first Aria was nervous as she is going to meet new people and she was always afraid of touching guys as she always felt uncomfortable. But now she has her best friend who will always be there for her. So 2 years of their high school life went smoothly and our Miss soul received a nickname "Saria" as both friends have same name and Aria went through two heartbreaks as the 1st guy has only seen her as a friend and the 2nd guy was seeing another girl while they were in flirting stage. She always had bad luck when it comes to guys but she always wanted to find her Mr.Right. She always cried and saria was always there to comfort her but there is one problem, whenever Aria starts seeing a guy, she forgets about Saria which always breaks saria. Being ignored by best friend's always hurts.
In their 3 year of high school, there was a guy
Saria liked and she wanted to tell Aria but she received a shock from her when she announced that she likes a guy and that guy is the one saria liked. So saria stepped aside for her friend and that guy was a gentlemen.
Since then, Aria and that guy became close, so close that Aria declared to their group of friends that he is the one she likes the most on the world. Saria thought,'What about me? Aren't I your best friend?'
But things were not same as Saria started to distance herself from Aria, then Aria introduced that guy to their friend group, everybody loved him, he was an introvert and was so shy, but there was a change, Saria and that guy hit off immediately as they have same preferences and they always seen each other only as friends and saria already erased her crush and became friends with him. One day, Aria called saria to her house and she went there, she told that when she confessed, that guy told that she had always been a friend, hearing this saria had no words and can only comfort her. They returned to their life and everyone in the group stopped talking to him, even though it's not his fault.
But after 3 months, when saria was preparing a presentation, she needed some references so she took Aria's phone, then a message caught her attention, it was from that guy. Saria was shocked,' Didn't she got her heart broken? I thought she said that she will never contact him, maybe they made up, I Don't care anymore'.
And everyone both has fights, Aria would come to her and then leave when she receives whenever she receives msg from that guy. Saria started to feel frustrated and eventually they bought had a big fight and Aria cut off their friendship saying that saria started to become toxic and always controlling her choices, that was there last conversation.
Everybody around them thought it was sudden but whenever anyone asked what happened both stayed silent, then onwords they separated and both had their own life.
