Part-1

The evening sky was hazy, followed by a sudden crash of thunder soon it started to drizzle.
The pedestrians started running to take shelter to prevent themselves from getting drench.
The cold breeze was also roaming around the street, tending them to shiver.

This was the spring season of the year, but today’s unexpected thunderstorm dash people’s
moods.

Jenny was no different. She had especially dolled herself up, wearing a white flora dress, did
a light makeup, and left her hair locks loosely on her shoulders. She made a plan to roam
around the market to buy a gift for her mother’s birthday.

After searching for a while, she finally found a yellow gold crystal pendant. Her mother was a
simple lady, as such, Jenny was sure that her mother would definitely like her gift.

Jenny was immersed in searching for the gift for so long that she didn’t notice the time and
by the time she realized, the sun had started to set down.

‘Ohh...I am late!’ Thinking that her mother would be worried about her, Jenny started running
back towards her home.

Unfortunately, today’s unexpected rain became a hurdle for her. Like other people, Jenny
started running to take shelter to prevent herself from getting drench!

She immediately ran towards an open hut located at the center of the street.

Since the sun had already gone down, many people had already gone towards their home.
Jenny also wanted to go home, but it was far away from the market and the crash sound of
thunder was making her scared to her wits’ end.

In the end, Jenny decided to stay under an open hut for a while along with other people
before proceeding towards her home.

Since the sky was turning dark and the thunderstorm didn’t seem to have a plan to slow
down soon, therefore, other people also started to run away towards home leaving Jenny
alone.

With the passage of time, Jenny left alone under the open hut. The cold breeze brushed past
her body, sending a shiver down her spine. Her deep black eyes were slightly moistened
with the fear that could be seen in it as well.

She crossed her hands close to her front side of the body, holding tightly the gift box in her
hands.

This is repeated:
Not knowing what to do next, until, she heard the sound of some footsteps.The

She crossed her hands close to her front side of the body, holding tightly the gift box
in her hands.
Not knowing what to do next, until, she heard the sound of some footsteps.

‘Pak!’
‘Pak!’

Jenny turned to look towards the source of the sound and a man was coming towards the
street. Seeing that an unknown man was coming here, Jenny felt her heart jump to her
throat in fear!

She lowered her head and pressed her lips tightly together. Even though she was scared
and shivering, she couldn’t reveal her fear in case it would bring a disadvantage for her.

The man was holding an umbrella which was hiding his face. He seemed to go somewhere
else, but suddenly, he stopped for a second, and then he changed his direction and walked
towards the open hut, where Jenny was standing alone. The man quietly stood under the
hut, set his umbrella aside near to the other side of the pillar.

Jenny’s body stiffed, when she noticed his movement, not able to understand as why was
this man standing here despite having an umbrella?

Nevertheless, she didn’t dare to ask and look towards him. She was just silently praying to
the god to stop this rain for a few minutes so that she could go back to her home, back to her
parents.

After a few minutes, the man stepped forward to go. Jenny sighed a relief noticing his
movement, but subconsciously her sight caught something...

The umbrella!

The man had left the umbrella behind!

Jenny immediately looked up to call him, but she noticed that man was standing in the rain
and smiling at her warmingly. His grey eyes showed a sense of security. He pointed towards
the umbrella, hinting her to take the umbrella with her, and then he ran away and soon
disappeared into the dark night!

Single Heart-Part-2

Jenny immediately took the umbrella and went behind that man but he had already gone!

She could still recall his mesmerizing grey eyes and the charming smile and for the first time in her
life, she felt that her heart skipped a beat!

Afterward, Jenny returned back home with the umbrella.

Jenny unknowingly fell in love with the umbrella that whenever she went out, she always carried it
with herself with the hope that she could meet that man again!
In a blink of an eye, a few days had passed and spring season came back to overcome unexpected
thunderstorms. The sparkling sunlight rays was brightening up the entire city and the pleasant breeze
was also roaming around, lightening up everyone’s mood!

The day of Jenny’s mother, Rosy Martin’s, birthday had also arrived. Jenny’s family The Martin's had
organized a small gathering to celebrate Rosy Martin’s birthday.

On the same day, Jenny’s father, John Martin, had informed Jenny that he had selected a suitor for her
and he also invited him for today's gathering.

John told Jenny that it was a right time for her to find a life partner!

Jenny was reluctant. She liked her life with her parents, she didn’t want to get separated from them.
However, she was an obedient daughter so she couldn’t object to her father’s desire.

In the end, she decided to meet that suitor on her father's request. But in the back of her mind, she
already rejected him.

She subconsciously looked at the umbrella that an unknown man had left for her that night and she
suddenly thought “It would be wonderful if I could meet him again!”

At that instant, the door of the house opened, Jenny looked towards it and was completely shocked to
see the person in front of her!

She couldn’t believe what she was looking at!

Jenny’s sight greeted that man’s silhouette whom she met that night in the market.

She couldn’t believe she would be so lucky that her wish would fulfill so soon!

His name was Alex. Later, Jenny got to know that Alex was the one whom her father had selected.

Her rejection idea immediately wiped out from her mind!

During the entire gathering, Jenny couldn’t take off her eyes from him.

Alex was an outstanding man, everyone in the Martin's liked him and had already selected him for
Jenny!

They wanted Alex and Jenny to get married soon. However, Alex suggested that they should date for
sometime before they get married.

When Jenny heard his suggestion, she was stunned as it seemed Alex had read her eyes, she was also
thinking the same but she hesitated to let her family know about it.

Alex had found her problem and solved it for her without letting her say anything.

Jenny couldn’t find herself less blissful and soon they started dating.
She was a timid person and sometimes, she felt ashamed of herself and thought that Alex would leave
her soon. However, nothing like this had ever happened!

Alex was very calm towards her. He was a very caring and loving person just like Jenny wanted!

He never complained about anything and patiently treated her with his care and love and soon, Jenny
lost her heart to him.

She was very excited and couldn’t wait to spend her life with him!

Dismally, things didn’t go as Jenny wished!

She got to know that her family did not mention anything to Alex and his family, The Smiths, about
her heart problem.

Jenny had a hole in her heart and the doctor had informed her family that if she would not go for a
transplant in a few years, she wouldn't be able to survive. Unfortunately, Jenny’s blood type was very
rare that was why the Martins were not able to find any suitable donor yet.

Jenny wanted to live her life with Alex, but not on the basis of a lie.

Therefore, she took a bold step and decided to tell everything to him despite her family’s strong
opposition.

The next day, Jenny went to meet Alex. They decided to meet at the same place where they met the
first time i.e. under the open hut in the center of the market.

It was a very difficult step for Jenny and she might lose Alex forever after today, but she was still
determined to tell him the truth!

Alex hadn’t shown up yet!

Jenny knew that he would surely come, so she decided to wait for him. The needle in the clock moved
and soon, it had completed a few circles of the clock. The bright sparkling sunlight started turning into
the orange and then it started disappearing into the clouds with the darkness slowly wrapping into the
entire sky.

However, Alex didn’t turn up!

Single Heat (Part-3)

Disheartened Jenny went back to her home and the first thing she wanted to do was to contact Alex.
However, she didn’t know that grave news was already waiting for her.
As soon as Jenny reached home, her family informed her that Alex had brain cancer and his condition
was very critical and he didn’t have many days left.

All of a sudden, Jenny felt that her world had turned upside down!

Few days before, her life seemed blissful and now it felt miserable

Martins were very angry at Smiths as the latter did not mention anything about Alex’s cancer to them.

Whereas, Smiths were also very dejected because their only son, Alex, was going to die in a matter of
a few days and they couldn’t do anything to save him.

Alex was always an obedient and caring son to his parents. They felt that God was being very unfair
towards their family, towards their son. How could God be so evil to take their son away from them?

Jenny cared less about her family’s feelings and immediately rushed to the hospital. Rosy couldn’t
leave her daughter alone so she also chased her. Jenny followed by Martins reached the hospital and
little did they know that another shocking news was waiting for them.

The Smiths already knew about Jenny’s heart problem and Alex and Jenny’s blood type was also
matched with each other.

Now Alex had a last wish that his heart should transfer to Jenny.

Smiths also agreed with Alex as it was their son’s last wish. Perhaps through this heart transplant,
they felt that their son would still be alive!

The Martins felt ashamed to face the kind-hearted Smiths. They couldn’t understand whether they
should feel happy that their daughter would be saved or they should feel sad that the person, their
daughter loved, couldn’t be saved.

Even in his last few days, Alex’s warming smile didn’t lose its charm while he said to Jenny “Jenny,
now you can live long so do cherish it. Find a man for whom your heart beats and marry him!”

“My heart only beats for you! ” Jenny replied with sobs.

“Don’t worry. Since you will have my heart, I will find a good man for you!”

Those were the last words of Alex to Jenny!

After that, Martins and Smiths helped Jenny to find a suitable suitor. However, all of them got
rejected because none of them got the approval of Alex’s heart!

With that, a few years had passed. Even though Alex wasn’t beside her anymore, Jenny never felt
alone because of his heart which beats with every breath she took. That was why she felt content with
her life.
Again the spring season of the year arrived. It was a favorite season of Alex and Jenny. The pleasant
breeze was blowing everywhere with the sparkling sunlight rays. It was a lovely day, as usually,
Jenny took her umbrella that Alex had given to her before going out for a walk.

Jenny walked far away from her home and didn’t notice the time and by the time she realized a
sudden thunderstorm had already arrived.

Luckily, Jenny had an umbrella that made her feel secure. She opened it up and walked back towards
her home.

However, all of a sudden (Disha, take a pause of 3 seconds) a huge blow of cold breeze brushed
passed her body and the umbrella had flown far away.

Jenny immediately ran after the umbrella, but soon, it disappeared in the heavy Rain.

However, she didn’t take down and continued her search for it, irrespective of the fact that she was
getting drench!

Unfortunately, after a long time, she still wasn't able to find it!

In the end, Jenny got discouraged and helplessly bent down on her knees in the middle of the road.
All of a sudden, she felt, her soul left her body and also felt a loss of sense of security!

Her body was shivering from getting drench and her eyes were num with unshed tears.

Don’t know what to do next, until she felt the rain had suddenly stopped. She immediately looked up
and found a man who was holding her umbrella.

“Your umbrella!” The unknown man said with a warming smile. He also had grey eyes just like Alex
which provided a sense of great security.

She stood up to take her umbrella but then the man suddenly asked “ If You don’t mind, can we share
this umbrella?”

Jenny, she didn’t know what to say, but then suddenly, her heart skipped a beat for a moment as she
felt that Alex had come back after seeing the smile of that man. She subconsciously nodded and
started walking beside him.

Afterward, they shared the umbrella and both of them soon disappeared in the dark night...
