Author’s pov
Machines were attached to a body while the man was lifeless there, A nurse came near him only to shout at the next second, His eyes started blinking announcing that he is finally after months Awake!
He heard voices near him calling the doctor immediately but couldn’t focus on who was the owner of the voice. The doctor Alex came and examined him then smiled.
Al: Thank God you’re finally fine, Mr. Raisinghania, we’re happy to have you back! Thankfully your reports show everything normal. We have informed your family and they’re on the way. V(tiredly): Thank you, doctor! How much time did it pass since I was unconscious?
Al: Three months, It has been three months since you were here! His expressions held the disbelief and shock after hearing that he had been there for a long time.
Al: I can understand how hard it is to accept it, however, I would like to request you to not have any stress concerning the coma, as I said before, Luckily the injury didn’t have any side effects.
He closed his eyes while the doctor departed the room. then He heard a voice near him.
Voice: I am happy to see you again.
V(opening his eyes): youuuu???What are you doing here?
girl: I wanted to see how are you doing!
V: Oh really? After being the reason why I am in this state, you have the courage still to show me your face? Look whoever you are I want you to know one thing is the fact that I regret that night!
Gi: My name is Riddhima Collin, And please, don’t speak like that, It wasn’t intentional.
V: Do you think it matters? I am here just because of You, Get out of here.
R: Please !! I am really sorry !! I apologize for what occurred due to me!
V: Look, I don’t want to hear anything, just go !! She looked sadly at him then walked toward the door while Another doctor arrived there.
D: Hey I am doctor Aryan I think your Gf has left, I saw her here many times near your bed !! She always prayed for your safety and waited for you to wake up. In fact, she was rarely leaving your side!
V(to himself): I think I was so rude with her, I shouldn’t have acted like that, It wasn’t on purpose anyway. (to the doctor) Is the girl still outside?
Ar(smiled): She’ll come soon! I will tell her to do so.
V: wait doctor, when I will be discharged?
Ar: soon, You’ll know! saying so, He left behind Vansh looking strangely at the doc, then shrugged his thoughts waiting for Riddhima to return.
A nurse came into the room looking around scared!
V: This hospital has mental staff working here! what’s wrong with them? His hand accidentally hit the table near him and the nurse shouted making people came running there.
N(hysterically): same will happen to me! save me !!
V: What’s wrong with her? They all eyed him with fear and departed the room while Dr.Aryan came again.
Ar: Don’t mind them, a nurse was here near you with a broken hand since then they are terrified to come near you.
V: what kind of rubbish is that?
Ar: Well, for me and you, it’s total bullshit but for them, They believe and live it, and we can’t take them out of their illusion.
V: Right !! why am I bothered by the topic? Let them say what they want but please Doc, keep those crazy people away! They can’t be trusted (murmured) who will know that more than me. (touching his injury)
Few hours passed, and He fell asleep, Then he noticed someone near him, And opened his eyes with a jerk!
V: Riddhima?
R: Yes, D.Ar told me that you wanted to talk with me. (He was about to speak but she stopped him) Please I am so sorry, I know that your injury was due to me, However, I would never want someone to get hurt because of me.
V(looking at her sad expressions): Ok I forgive you, You’re right, you’re not the one to blame. R(smiled): Really? Did you forgive me?
V: Of course! But still, there’s an important thing to do.
R(tensed): what is it?
V: You’ll know when they discharge me!
R(hesitated): Do you remember that night?
V: yeah, But still I can’t understand why?
R(taking a deep breath): Do you know who was he to me?
V: How would I know? Tell me if you are comfortable, I can’t understand why would someone do that!
R: first I am sorry because you had to endure the pain due to me!!
Fb starts
Vansh looked at the watch: Uff I am late, I will have to go to the office and get the file now! He drove fast to his company but couldn’t find the file he needed;
V: This stupid Pa !! He surely lost it, and I’ll kill him for that! He dialed his number but it was unreachable!
V: Perfect! now his phone is switched off and I need the file. (looking at the phone) I will fire you and then bury you somewhere If you don’t switch on your phone, you idiot bastard!
(He saw the client calling him and cursed under his breath) I have to go to his house and take the file. Reaching his house before he could step outside of the car, He saw his pa moved the car and he followed him to stop him. However, he didn’t notice him as he was arguing with the person who was sitting near him. Then the car suddenly stopped and his eyes widened as he saw Kabir, His pa holding a stick and lifting it up to hit the woman in front of him.
V: stooooppppp
Kabir looked at him then at the woman who was trembling with fear/
K: You shouldn’t have come here, Vansh sir!
He lifts up the stick and hit his head while he was fighting to stay awake but failed with the blood oozing fastly from his injury, The last thing he could hear is the scream of that unknown girl as their hands touched.
Fb ends
R: He is my ex-husband, Kabir!
V: what? I know his name, but He’s your ex-husband still he behaved like animals with you? Where’s your family?
R: I don’t have anyone to support me, I have been always alone even though I married with big dreams of a happy life and a small family, I didn’t get any of it. He harassed me and hit me in front of people. Yet I endured it.
Vansh felt bad for the young stranger girl and scolded her for her stupidity.
V: What? Are you mad? You could punish him!! What is the law for if not for those bastards who show up their strength in front of women? Anyway, Let me go out of this hospital and I will show you What Vansh Raisinghania can do.
R: No no, Just forget it, let it be. Don’t go after him.
V: Are you even serious? That ass**ole tortured you and still, you are defending and protecting him?
R: It’s not about that, (looking at nowhere) you won’t understand !!
V: Oh really? Try me, I am a good listener, What are your reasons?
R: I can’t tell you.
V: Then I can’t listen to you. During the next two days, I will be out of here and he’ll be in the prison cell for a very long time, How dare he attack me
