Falling in love again : Sai Joshi!! Part 5

Pulkit called Vikram inside and told that Sai suffered a severe panic attack as her blood pressure dropped to alarmingly low levels and her pulse his also too low he asked if they could arrange for an oxygen cylinder soon as her breathing was becoming irregular and could be fatal! Without wasting a single second Vikram quickly got everything arranged!Later Pulkit spoke to Vikram in private and asked if Sai wasnt keeping welll or something to which Vikram narrated that the previous day she was down with fever but soon recovered! Usha Maushi on hearing about Sai’s health rushed past everyone and came inside the room ! She was heartbroken to see her daughter in that condition .She felt helpless and recollects the days when Sai uses to suffer such panic attacks she used to take some medicine quickly getting it from her purse she asked Pulkit if they could give Sai those medicines! Looking at those medicines Pulkit was shocked and asked Maushi for how long had Sai been using those to which Usha replied that Sai used to take those when she had panic attacks especially after her divorce and when she was brutally character assassinated! When they shifted to Jaipur she hardly took them May be once or twice! Pulkit then asked if anyone knew about Sai’s medications to which the Royal Family Members told the entire past of Sai to Pulkit! Usha started and said after completing her MBBS from Mumbai ….Sai cleared her PG entrance exam and topped it ! She and Sai went to Delhi where Sai studied and stayed in the hostel while Usha too stayed along with her and worked in the College Canteen as a cook! Sai was exceptionally brilliant but had stopped smiling or talking to anyone she had made a shell around her due to the trauma she suffered previously! Usha also told that many a time Sai used to have nightmares while sleeping and she used to cry !She had started neglecting her own health and was living like lifeless body! When she finished her PG in surgery , she was offered the job as a junior resident doctor in the hospital owned by the Royal Family where she joined and we came to Jaipur! Initial days were a little hard as we weren’t able to find any good rented place to love in but soon the senior doctor under whom Sai had to work offer us stay at his rented flat which was just a few minutes of walking distance from the hospital! A few months later when the fest was organized and Swathi bitiya was attacked and injured and Sai’s senior doctor too had some personal issues Sai was given the job to look after Swathi and stay in the Royal Palace only and ensure Swathi bitiya recovered fully!

The Royal Family members and others except for the Chavan Nivas Parivaar who were hearing about Sai’s story had tears in their eyes ,Vikram who knew about everything as Sai had honestly told him about her past when they had gone for a minivacation to Kerala!Swathi controls her emotions and then tells Pulkit that when Sai had come she gave a smile which was not a genuine one and started telling that Sai used for treat her well bit never spoke much she hardly smiled and whenever Vikram used to enter a sort of fear was seen in her eyes being lawyer she could read in between the lines and felt that the girl must have been through something terrible which has made her lose interest in life ! That’s when Satvam spoke in and said that when Sai had first come here that is in the Royal Palace she always looked at the floor and bumped into him and she seemed frightened and hesitatingly asked where was Swathi?! Post examining Swathi she bumped into Vikram who held her by her waist and prevented her from falling! Scares of falling down Sai had closed her eyes but sensing that she hadn’t fallen down she opened her eyes slowly only to be absorbed into the beautiful orbs of Vikram after a few seconds regaining her senses she composed herself and they left ! For Vikram he felt an unknown source of happiness and his heart was racing while Sai quickly walked to her room! Swathi who noticed her Devar lost in his own thoughts and smiling too much felt something was there and that’s when she came to know that Vikram had an instant liking for Sai …better to say he fallen in love at first sight!Slowly  Swathi kinda gained Sai’s confidence by interacting with her and telling about the cases she used to get and her dreams and ambitions and Satvam had become like a brother like figure to her !Once when Swathi had organized a self defence class for Women at her NGO ,since Sai was at the hospital due to some emergency she sent across the invite through Vikram! Vikram who always used it wait f9r such opportunities to meet her was very much excited and quickly ran to his room to have a look at himself and then blushingly went to Sai’s room! Like a true gentleman he stood outside her room and knocked on the door ! Sai who was busy arranging her clothes was surprised to see the Royal Prince at the door of her room ! She invited him inside and offered him a glass of water as it looked as if he ran a marathon as he was sweating too much ! With a beautiful smile which he felt was the most beautiful sight he had ever seen in his life spoke about the self defence programme organized by Swathi and also apologized on her behalf as she was busy co ordinating about the programme ! Sai accepted the invite happily and said she would attend it ! She even asked if she could get her family member too which Vikram nodded his head and she out of joy and excitement hugged him for a few seconds!After realizing what she had done Sai looks everywhere except at Vikram while Vikram offered to drop her at the event which was held next day! Sai quickly called up Usha Maushi and asked her to join her at the hospital tomorrow afternoon as she missed her a lot and this workshop was like an excuse in which she could spend sometime with her Maushi since Maushi wasn’t staying with her at the palace due to security reasons! Maushi could notice that the Sai who used to always be happy and lively was coming back to her true form she silently sent a thank you prayer to Bappa and asked him to bless her child with abundance of happiness! The hug which Sai made to Vikram and has made him so happy that he forgot the surroundings and wasn’t even concentrating at the conversations at the dining table his mind was still fresh with the memories of the morning where Sai offered him water,and smiled and even hugged him! Looking at him smiling Vijayendra asked Satvam if they had cracked a huge business deal to which Satvam told there was no deal they just had a business meeting to get a review of the ongoing projects! HE then asked Vikram if he wrote any book which already became a bestseller to which he nodded a no ! Swathi realizing it was something else then changed the topic by diverting everybody’s attention from Vikram and told about the workshop and asked the Dadi Ma and Ma to attend it ! B9th the ladies sighed and said that they would have loved to attend it but because of a Pooja at the temple ,they were busy ! Swathi quickly nodded and smiled at them and acknowledged their conversation! After breakfast Swathi made an excuse about the arrangements of the workshop and asked Vikram to discuss it to which he happily followed her unaware that she would keep a gruelling question answer session along with his brother Satvam! She asked him why was he smiling like a maniac to which he told about the morning incident! Happy for her brother both Satvam and Swathi promised to bring him closer to Say but he shouldn’t force himself on her as she would back off ! Later that afternoon Usha reached Sai’s hospital and was surprised to see Sai wear a beautiful smile which she didn’t do for a few years ! Sai joined her quickly and engilfed her in a hug and asked her to join her with the workshop! Usha happily agreed and by 4.30 pm had reached the workshop ! With half an hour left for the workshop to begin both of them were having a long and sweet conversation about things and then Sai all of a sudden gifted Maushi a beautiful Saree and a pair of beautiful earrings!She’s eyes filled with tears of joy and hugged Sai and kissed her forehead and thanked her ! She felt happy that Sai had started smiling all this was noticed by Vikram who felt happy and felt blessed that he fell in love with someone who genuinely cares for someone ! During the workshop Sai wasn’t getting some moves right so Vikram who was a volunteer helped Sai! As they came closer Sai unknowingly had let her guard down and smiled acknowledging his help! Usha who noticed all this understood that Sai was falling in love and thanked Bappa by sending him a silent prayer! She even prayed that her Sai too deserves happiness and now he should bless her with abundance of happiness!Later in the evening since Maushi and Sai weren’t getting any auto to go back and it was turning dark and it seemed very cloudy too !Vikram offered to drop them to which Sai obliged when they started as though Bappa heard Usha’s prayers it started raining heavily ,noticing concern on Sai’s face regarding her Maushi he told that Maushi could stay in the Palace as the culprits had been found and also Sai could take care of her Maushi too since Maushi wasn’t keeping well too !Sai’s face lit up with joy and she felt extremely happy!She mumbled a thanks to Vikram who smiled at her!
