"In which hospital she is?" he tried not to break and praying worst to not to come.

"Life care hospital. Please come fast sir..." the call was disconnected. When something came into NK's mind, he rushed back to his room and searched for the nurse who told him about Arnav. When he found her, he ran towards her

"Excuse me sister, yesterday night, are we, I mean me and my friend got admitted alone or any other person also got admitted?" asked NK fearing to hear the worst.

"Yes... The police admitted a girl along with you two. She is really in a critical condition. Just few minutes back only they brought her to ICU, after operating full night. Poor girl..."

NK ran towards the ICU, praying God, not to turn his fears to reality. When he neared ICU, he found his heart beating rapidly and felt his knees going weak. He looked through the glass door and found the land beneath him shaking. There, his best friend, lying lifelessly fighting for her dear life. He sensed someone standing behind him and heard her saying

"She is the girl which I mentioned before. She is the girl hit by your bike"

NK looked at the nurse standing behind him. She sighed and went from there. Before he understand everything police came to him, finished some of their formalities and handed over Khushi to him. NK sat near Khushi, who is unaware of his presence. He held her hand which has less bruises, kept his head on her hand and cried his heart out.

When her words kept sounding in his eyes, NK closed his eyes in pain and whispered "Sorry kuku... I'm really sorry for not listening to you. I'm sorry. Please come back" Still tears rolling down from the corner of his eyes.

******************

Both Arnav and NK remembered her last words her pleads in college. But they didn't give any damn to her words when she said 'I'm not having any good feeling today please... don't go' they both closed their eyes to wait for Khushi to come back to them.

"NK... Don't worry... she will be fine. She has to be fine. She can't leave us like that. I will see to that. Let her come back, I will show her how important she is in my life. I won't let her go away from me. I will take care of her with my full attention. We can't lose her" said Arnav. Suddenly when a thought came to his mind he immediately asked "NK, anyone informed her parents about the accident?"

NK nodded his head in no.

"What the!!! Fine we will do that. Where is Khushi's phone?" he took phone from NK's and looked at the contacts to find her family members' numbers. When he found only two names - Arnav and NK - which make his eye brows fold. He looked at NK who sighed defeated saying "She only has two contacts, you and me. We never noticed her talking with her family or her other friends except us two."

"And also we never asked about her family whereabouts...," said Arnav when realisation dawned to him. "And... and... Hell we don't even knew about where she is residing!! She never mentioned about her family and herself. She asked our friendship and mingled with us... that's all...!!! Is she...alone in this world? Doesn't she have anybody? Is she an Oo or...rphan... Oh ****... ****... How can I be this careless? I didn't know anything about her or her family and all" cursed Arnav.

"The police found it weird. I managed saying, she has two phones - for family and for friends. They looked at me weirdly but I managed with my innocent smile which I learnt from her. The police also smiled and left from there handing her over to me. When I saw her I felt like I'm in hell Arnav. Tsk... Leave it... I wish she will come back to us"
