Sisterhood

sisterhood (2)

I woke up with a jerk and started panting heavily. I vaguely saw someone passing me a glass of water telling me to drink it.

Looking around the surrounding I noticed I'm sitting on a hospital bed. I was so lost in putting back the missing puzzle that I got startled by a very familiar voice as it spoke "Nightmares are back aren't they?"

I turned around and came face to face with Adarsh standing beside my bed. I simply nodded and emptied the glass of water.

This wasn't the first time I had these Nightmares so ignoring my condition I asked Adarsh "How Kavya is doing?"

But he scrunch up his face and said "What happened to her, when I saw your miss calls, I called back and a nurse answered saying you fainted and you are in hospital." He said in a one breath.

"Shit" was the only word I said before climbing down from the hospital bed and dashing towards the operating room in which a while ago my sister was but now it was empty.

I quickly stopped a nurse in her tracks and asked about the girl in that operating room she told me "Her health is now stable we had moved her in room no. 106 for recovery."

Thanking her I made my way towards room no. 106. Their she was lying on the bed. Her right arm was plastered whereas her head was covered in white bandages.

What hurt most was that I wasn't the first one to see her after she came out of that operating room. A boy in his late teens was sitting beside Kavya holding her hands and they both were passing smiles to each other.

I was going to announce myself when my phone beeped I checked my phone to see a message by Adarsh 'Vahriya glad you are good. I just received a message from work. I had to leave, see you tomorrow.' I left it seen. He always do this when ever I need him.

I cleared my throat to draw their attention towards me. Noticing me standing at the door the boy stood from the bed hurriedly and excused himself saying "I'll bring something to eat for you ladies."

I badly wanted to ask Kavya about the boy but I decided to put that topic aside for a while.

I took her hands slowly into mine "How's you feeling now?" I smiled and asked her. She tried to node but winced in pain badly. My heart clenched seeing her in this much pain all because of me.

I looked into her brown eyes and tucked her hairs behind her while saying " I'm sorry my little sis." She squeezing my hand back saying "please Vahriya di, it wasn't your fault. I just lost my-" I shushed her "shhh I'm sorry for saying mean things in bedroom. I know its very hard after mom and dad's accident."

She nodded and said while crying " It's my fault too Vahriya di. I shouldn't have said those things to you in first place. You were the only one I had after their....she gulped and looked away."

"Well now you know never to disturb me while watching my favorite series." I said in a playful tone. She look at me and gasped "Mercy di, I'm the one who is in hospital so I should get special treatment.
I want to watch my cooking show now."

We both stared at each other then started laughing like mad women but we failed to notice the boy who was previously here standing outside the door. When he came inside we abruptly stopped our laughter.

"Am I interrupting something? Should I go?" The boy asked after an awkward silence.

"No please be our guest." I said with a polite smile but I didn't meant a single word.

I looked at Kavya and raised my eyebrow indicating her to introduce us. She hesitated but introduce "Vahriya di he is Ronnie, my boyfriend and Ronnie she is my sister Vahriya. "
