Do play the song I added, it is one of my favorite and apt for this chapter.

VIREN POV

Every time the door opens, my heart starts beating erratically. Expecting to see her walk through that door and snuggling beside me.

But it eventually breaks when dad walks in with my uncle in tow.

"You are set to go home," Dad announces happily.

I nod my head and look away, I have let everyone see enough to make them think how weak I'm.

"You can change into your clothes and then we are leaving.." Dad says and a male nurse walks towards me.

I nod and with the help of him, I stand up and change into a t-shirt and trousers.

"Your mother is waiting for you!" Dad says and we walk outside the room.

"What about Dhruv?" I ask my uncle,

"We will keep him for a day, and he can leave too." He replies.

"And-"

"Prithvi will be discharged after you, his parents are coming." Uncle reply before I can speak his name.

I nod my head and with the help of my dad, I enter the elevator.

"Where are Shaurya and Arhaan?" I ask him.

"Arhaan is with Maanya and Shaurya, I don't know." He replies.

For the next few minutes, I just follow my dad's lead to the car at the back gate.

Just as I sprawl my legs, a hiss leaves my mouth.

"Your ribs are still healing, your mom wanted you at home, said you will recover faster around your family." Dad confides.

I nod and look outside the window.

When we pass over a tea stall, I remembered the time I spend with Paakhi.

Her enchanting smile, her entrancing eyes, and wild fragrance all lure me to her.

"There was a call from the New York office for you, I put it on hold, tell me when you are ready to attend." Dad's voice distracts me.

"Right now, give me my phone," I reply.

He nods his head and takes out my phone from his coat pocket.

"Here," he gives it to me.

I switch it on and see 102 missed calls from Dhruv and numerous messages from everyone.

Swiping through all, I check my email, and get back to work.

As I reach home, I exit the car and see my family waiting at the doorsteps.

"It's so good to see you, son," mom says hugging me.

"Bhai, I'm so happy you are okay," Riya comes after mom.

"Me too," Maira joins in.

"Now, now, girls, let him have some rest. You go prepare for the evening." Aunty comes forward and shoos them away.

"Come," mom takes my hand and helps me to my room.

"Is it paining?" Mom asks probably noticing me flinching.

"Ascending steps is putting a bit pressure, that's it," I reply.

"My son," she whimper.
