A Friend?

Anika’s PoV

I woke up on a bed. Am I dreaming? Am I dead? Is this heaven? Or is this hell? I died from drowning in a swimming pool. My husband whom I love dearly pushed me in the water though he knew that I didn't know how to swim. He tried to kill me precisely. But why? He is angry at me, why? Angry that he would even kill me? What did I do?

“Shhh, relax, Anika. Don’t strain yourself.” I heard a lady sitting beside me.

“Am I dead?” I asked her.

“Haha, you are pretty alive. I have told Arjun not to teach you swimming anymore. How are you feeling?” she asked me.

“Feeling numb, I guess.” I told her unsure of what I actually feel. “Who are you?” I asked her.

“You don't remember me? I am Preethi, Arjun’s closest friend. I came to visit him as he didn’t go to the office today. Guess what, he is taking care of his sick wife.” She said, winking at me. I remember her, she came to our engagement too. She has this uncanny resemblance to someone I know. Who?
