Something seems fishy here. It went (2H) P (3H) and your side hold 6
hearts between you. Are they in a 5-2 fit at the 3 level? And do they
lead low from doubleton? Oh, never mind. North has 14 cards! Guess
she has one less heart.
Makes 5C a good contract now.
At 3S, win the HA, play SA and low spade. Unless there are terrible
breaks, you should lose 2 spades, and 2 hearts.
