6 Years Ago
The moment Akshu left the Birla House denying her feelings for Abhimanyu both were crying inconsolably. Akshu reached Goenka House where Kairav asked her to leave and to Kairav’s surprise she left without any questions. On the other hand, Abhimanyu was devastated and he left taking his bike in open air to calm his mind. On the way Abhimanyu got into a fight with a random guy but was saved by Kairav.
Thankyou but there was no need to do that, Kairav
What’s wrong with you? Why are you behaving so coldly Abhimanyu?
How do you siblings act so well? You should try in the film industry.
What do you mean Abhimanyu? Can you please be little clearer?
Stop acting as if you know nothing. As if your sister didn’t tell you how she denied her feelings for me in front of my entire family.
What nonsense? Akshu did that.
Wow! I mean awesome. If you don’t know it then I am pretty sure she wouldn’t have told this to anyone. Anyways it doesn’t matter now what she does or doesn’t, her chapter is closed in my life forever. Also, I don’t want to do anything with you or your family from today.
Abhimanyu goes, leaving behind a shocked Kairav who mutters to himself “that’s why she left without any questions”
Abhimanyu hears this and is shocked for a split second but then flashes of how Akshara discarded his feelings came into his mind and he left the place.
Abhimanyu reached back home and headed to the temple in his room. He changed and did the tandav to calm down his raging heart. He fell down with a thud and cried in front of his mahadev.
Mahadev I don't understand what am I supposed to do. Was I so dumb that I didn't understand that Akshara feels nothing for me? But that look in her eyes, the look that gave me peace, that smile which forced me to smile as well. What was all that? But then why would Akshara lie.
He lied down there and slept because of exertion. After sometime he heard his phone ringing, it was Neil.
Bro, please open the door. Atleast talk to me. Don't shut yourself like that. Please.
Neil I am fine. I just need some time alone please.
The day passed like that but Abhimanyu didn't come out of his room. Manjari and Neil were worried but decided to give him some time. Next morning Abhimanyu didn't come for breakfast so Manjari went upstairs to call him but he didn't open the door nor did he respond.
Neil, Neil come here. See Abhi isn't opening the door.
All the Birlas hearing this came upstairs and started banging the door but got no response. Neil and Parth tried calling but he didn't recieve though they could hear it ringing inside the room. After sometime Neil and Parth broke the door and found Abhi lying on the floor. Anand quickly checked his pulse and informed them that his pulse was very low so Abhi was taken to the hospital. In the hospital it was found that Abhi fainted due to low blood sugar. He was put on a glucose drip but he was still unconscious.
Neil, what did Akshara do? I can't see my Abhi like this.
Maa relax. Bro will be fine and we can't force Akshara. You heard her yesterday how clear she was.
At night Abhi gained consciousness and Manjari fed him some light food which he initially denied but seeing Manjari cry, he agreed.
For next complete week Abhi was in the hospital because of his health. One his blood sugar wasn't normalizing and also his BP was fluctuating. He hadn't talked to anybody in this week regarding Akshara or anything. He was very silent. After a week he was discharged but he didn't join back because he felt he wasn't focused enough to perform a surgery. He didn't want to risk the life of his patients. A month passed like this, though Abhi didn't say it but deep down he was missing Akshara terribly. He thought of calling her many times but then decided against it thinking she might have moved on. One day he recieved a call.
Hi Arjun. How are you?
I am fine Abhimanyu. But I need your help regarding a patient. It's an emergency.
Arjun I don't think I can. I haven't been to the hospital for a month now. Why don't you talk to Dr. Anand?
Abhimanyu I know you can. You were the best doctor in our batch. Please atleast come to the hospital then you decide what you want to do. Atleast give your opinion.
Ok fine I will be there as soon as possible.
Abhimanyu takes the keys and leaves for Sunshine Hospitals as soon as possible. He asks for Dr. Arjun at the reception and is guided to the labour room. Abhimanyu spots Arjun in the corridor and goes to him.
Arjun labour room? What are you doing here?
Abhimanyu actually there is a lady in there. She is 8 months pregnant and is in labour. That is being looked by the gynecologist but what is worrying us is her weak heart. If you could take a look.
Ok. Let me change.
Abhimanyu enters the labour room and is shocked to see the woman. The woman holds his hand " please save her, please".
Abhimanyu what's wrong? Do you know her?
Yes actually, I had treated her once. She had fallen from stairs( and he remembers how he and Akshara had saved her together). She has two daughters. Where are they?
Had, not has Abhimanyu.
What nonsense Arjun?
Yes. Actually her husband killed her two daughters and then manipulated her for not filing an FIR. He then found out that she is pregnant again with a girl so he again tried to kill her but this time she stood up for her unborn daughter and gave him a fight resulting in his death and her early labour.
Show me her scans Arjun. Her BP is high. She has a hole in her heart and given the stress of labour I don't think there is any possibility. We can only save the child.
I thought the same Abhimanyu but I thought I should still take your opinion. Come let's go then. The gynecologist will handle this. Btw what happened to the prim and proper Dr. Abhimanyu Birla. Why are you in such a disheveled state?
Nothing Arjun just life happened.
Is it some girl? My bhabhi.
Ohhh how I wish. Ok I will leave now. But let's first see what happened in the labour room.
Nurse what happened to that woman?
Dr. Arjun she gave birth to a girl but she herself couldn't survive.
Abhimanyu remembers how she asked him to save her daughter.
Arjun what will you do with the child now?
We will send her to the orphanage near the hospital. What else can we do and pray that she finds a food family.
Bye Arjun.
Bye. See you.
Next day Abhimanyu went to the orphanage and met the manager.
Hello sir, I am Dr.Abhimanyu Birla.
Hi, nice to meet you.
Actually I had come to ask about a child who was brought from the Sunshine Hospitals yesterday. A girl child.
Yes what about her doctor?
Is she fine?
Oh she is perfectly fine.
Ok Actually sir I wanted to adopt her.
Are you sure?
Yes I am. But I do not want anybody not a single soul to know about this. Please.
Fine sir. I will do the formalities till then you fill this adoption form.
Name of the child: Avni Birla
Father's Name: Abhimanyu Birla
Mother's Name: Akshara Goenka.
Address: Birla House, Udaipur
Abhimanyu completes all the formalities and brings Avni home.
