CHAPTER 15
Meghna: Listen I need your help very badly….. His condition is going from bad to worse with each passing minute…… Please save him…… I know it’s only you could do it…… Please……. (Crying)
Kartik: Who is it?
Meghna: My SON…..
Kartik’s POV
I was nearly paralyzed for a movement when I heard the word SON….. So that’s why she was here, to beg for her son’s life. So even today she was here to meet Dr. Kartik Khanna and not Kartik. How typical Maya. But sorry dear this time you will only get Dr. Khanna and not Kartik. This time I am in control, this time I will destroy you as you destroyed me once without a second glance, this time you will payback for every pain you gave me. You love your son a lot, and were ready to bend for him, but I promise I will break you Maya. You will feel each and every pain that I felt all this years, that’s a promise……
Meghna: Kartik please help me……(Crying)
Kartik: (Coming out of his thoughts) Jut stop crying Maya….
Meghna: Please Kartik, I know it’s only you who can save him, please do…..
Kartik: And why must I do that Maya?
Meghna: Kartik……
Kartik: Yes Maya give me one good reason that I must help you now, after what you did with me….. Just one blo*dy good reason. (Frustrated)
Meghna: I know Kartik it was my fault, I should not have done what I did, and I am sorry for that. I know sorry won’t change what happened. And I won’t give any reason of helplessness for what I did. I. DID. WRONG. And I know that and I am sorry from bottom of my heart. But please don’t hold what I did against my son. He is innocent. He needs you Kartik he is dyeing; each passing minute is snatching his life away from him. (Begging on her knees)
Kartik: Wow it’s really great to find the great Maya Narang on her knees…. I must really take a picture and frame it. (Clapping his hands)
Meghna: Say whatever you wish to say……. I must listen. I am the one at fault, so I am ready to take any punishment you give, but please don’t punish my son. He did nothing.
Kartik: Fine I will help you, after all I am doctor and it’s my duty. And unlike you I don’t run away from my duties and responsibilities…… But I have certain conditions. And this time I will work only according to them……
Meghna: (Cutting him) I agree to your each and every condition…..
Kartik: Well I don’t think you must be too quick to answer that, listen first what are they…
Meghna: No need. I agree to everything you say. No condition you put forward would be more important than my son’s life; I am ready to pay any price for his life……
Kartik: Are you sure Maya….. Just listen to them first…..
Meghna: YES……. I am sure. Just tell me what you need me to do.
Kartik: Fine than show me the file….. I need time to study it. Wait for some time… I will call.
Meghna: Ok….
Meghna left the cabin and again went to waiting room, pushing aside a shocked Isha at the door. Isha was looking at Kartik as if he has grown an extra pair of head along with horns and tail. She could not wrap her brain around what she just saw……
Kartik: Come in Isha….
Isha: Could you just explain what just happened?(Still in shock)
Kartik: Come and sit…..
Isha: (Cutting him) Don’t try to just make me sit, and want answers and I need those f**king answers now…..
Kartik: Watch your language lady….
Isha: To hell with my language and manners.
Kartik: Isha…
Isha: You blo*dy throw me in front of that mad lioness from morning, and you yourself hide in this hole of yours for me to die and you think I must see to my language….. Wow bravo Dr. Khanna….
Kartik: Isha I am sorry….
Isha: Keep your sorry and eat it for lunch, I need blo*dy explanations. And I need it now……(Shouting)
Kartik: Fine but you sit first..(And giving her water)
Isha: (After having a sip) Now start… And it better be a good one.
Kartik: Well Maya is here for her son’s case who met with an accident and is in coma….
Isha: I know the case and its details, you come to main point how do you know her?
Kartik: Well she is my wife Maya…..
Isha: Sir…..
Kartik: Ya…
Isha: Sorry sir, but that means the child….
Kartik: Ya I think so its Ashok’s child.
Isha: But sir you call her Maya but Vishal told….
Kartik: That she is Meghna Narang
Isha: Yes that’s confusing.
Kartik: Well I don’t have any answer to that. When we last met she was Maya Narang, doing her specialization in Cardiac field. This change of field and name puzzle me too….
Isha: So she never changed her surname……
Kartik: Maybe she left Ashok…. I don’t know but I will get my answers……
Isha: So you are taking up the case.
Kartik: Yes I think so.
Isha: You must definitely do it sir.
Kartik: Why so?
Isha: It will give you a closure you never had.
Kartik: Well but here?
Isha: Don’t worry I will keep you updated with each second progress, after all I am better than you…. (Laughing)
Kartik: Fine Dr. Gupta I believe you. Now since you have studied the case give me full details….
Isha gave Kartik the complete update of Abhi’s case. Though Abhi had gone into coma but he still had chance. Kartik has cured many cases like this, so he was confident, though it was a delicate case. But before telling his decision to Maya he decided to plan the revenge. He was not giving Maya a free hand this time….
