Title is the song 'Hum marr jayenge' from movie 'Aahiqui 2'
After a restless night, Sameer had arrived to a decision by morning. What Naina had earlier said had hit him so sudden that he had just reacted out of reflex. But after listening to Harmeet, he felt there was no harm visiting him in the hospital. Now he needed to convince Naina for the same.
Apparently, she didn't need any convincing.
"Are you sure? Tum gussa toh nahi ho?" Naina asked, her eyes wide when he brought it up.
Sameer blinked in assurance, "Nahi Naina. Maine achhe se soch ke yeh decision liya hai. Harmeet ne ek request ki hai toh kuch soch ke hi ki hogi. Humein maan leni chahiye. After all woh ek doctor hai."
When he came to know of their decision, Harmeet asked them to come with him, telling his family that he was taking them to give a tour of his hospital.
At the hospital, they accompanied Harmeet to his room, which had one wall filled with several small colourful plaques.
Finding them looking at the wall curiously, he explained, "Har plaque uss bachhe ke naam ka hai jiske parents ne yahan treatment li hai." He rubbed his beard sheepishly, "Hospital management ka decision hai. Maine toh kaha tha iski zarurat nahi hai par..."
Naina smiled, "Aunty hamesha se aapki bohot praise karti hain. She's so proud of your success."
He shrugged consciously, "Main toh bas woh karta hun jo ek doctor ko karna chahiye. Jab naye parents ki aankhon mein khushi ke aansu dekhta hun, bas wohi meri success hoti hai." He looked at them, "Lekin iske liye mujhe case ko samajhna zaruri hota hai. Aap mujhe Harmeet Bhalla samajh kar nahi, Dr Harmeet Bhalla samajh kar apna case bataiye. I promise, jo bhi baat yahan hogi, ghar pe uska kabhi reference nahi ayega."
When they were seated, he posed the expected question at Naina, "Why did you think of surrogacy? Kya aap khud ready nahi ho? Are you scared?"
Sameer placed a hand over Naina's leg, giving a comforting smile when she looked at him. She bit into her quivering lip, steeling herself, then faced Harmeet, "I had a... miscarriage. Doctor ne kaha main dubara... I cannot..."
"Aapki shaadi ko toh kuch hi mahine hue hain. Kitne din pehle hua yeh?" Harmeet asked when she couldn't go further.
Taking a deep breath, she whispered, "Six years back."
If it shocked him, Harmeet did not let it show on his face. Simply nodding, he moved his gaze between both of them, "If you don't mind, hum kuch test kar lein?"
Before Sameer could think of anything, Naina spoke up, "Maine apni condition ko accept kar liya hai. I'm fine with it. Doctors ne uss waqt hi bata diya tha ki drugs ki wajah se mera system... normal nahi raha."
Even the mention of drugs did not elicit any judgmental response from Harmeet. He plainly smiled, "Naina, aapko inn tests se koi harm nahi hoga. Na main yeh keh raha hun ki jo aapko doctors ne bola woh jhoot tha. I'm not promising anything. Yeh test general health ka parameter maan ke karwa lijiye, please."
When she glanced at Sameer, he did not say anything, but she could see it in his eyes that he wasn't against it. With a small smile, she nodded at Harmeet, who pressed a number on his intercom immediately. Few minutes later, when a nurse entered the room, he handed her the paper on which he had been writing, and waved at Naina.
After she was escorted out, Harmeet turned to Sameer, "Aap dono ki personal life mein intrude nahi karna chahta, lekin as a doctor, agar mujhe bata doge toh Naina ki condition ko understand karna easy hoga. But I won't insist... only if you feel it's okay."
