Jenna & Jasmin

ben
Jenna and Jasmin conceived their own babies at the same month in Spring. Jasmin is Jenna's sister-in-law. Their first quarter of pregnancy went well with just a few odd wants as they carried their own angels. They visited each other's house most often as they talked much about being a mother for the first time and what to do during the labor times before giving birth. It was on their early 4th month of carrying a baby in their wombs when an unexpected event changed their relationship. Jasmin got a miscarriage that almost took her life. It was so painful for her because it was supposed to be her first baby. Jasmin got depressed that even her best buddy in the community, Jenna, was ignored by her. For several months, there was a space between them. There was silence that took their communication apart. In a party where Jasmin and Jenna had attended a month after Jenna's successful delivery of a baby girl, Jasmin still ignored Jenna. Jenna didn't know what to do whether to greet her or to approach her.

Sometimes it is difficult to approach people who suffer, especially when we are at the peak of our happiness or careers. Sometimes we don't know how to handle things out of our control. But assuring that we love the people and friendship or relationship remains in our heart for them, nothing will change. Give them some time to recover. One day or another, when the ailing process is soon gone, things will get better.
