It happened suddenly!

Part 33: Prayers are answered!

All were sitting on the couch placed right outside the operation theatre. Instead of late hours at night, no one was willing to move from there. Time and again they were anxiously glancing over the OT door with hopeful eyes. Apart from Cavidan and Cemre, everyone, including Umit and his mother, were genuinely worried! They were worried for Reyhan, who was currently being operated by the top surgeon of the town!

Cemre and Cavidan were trying hard to show as if they were worried too. But their facial expressions were not at all helping them in hiding the reality!

Sleep... anger... annoyance... were clearly evident on their faces. Cavidan was worried for her next day social get together while Cemre, on the other hand, was worried for her upcoming social status. She doesn't wanted to loose the chance of becoming Mrs Tarhun at any cost! Her alter personality was urging her to marry Emir today itself, by hook or by crook but her another image conscious alter self was preventing her to do so!

Irritated by the current situation, Cemre and Cavidan glanced at each other in complete annoyance. As they were busy in showing displeasure through their eyes, just then a nurse came out of operation theatre and everyone bombarded her with their queries.

"How is she...?"

"Is she alive...?"

"Is she ok...?"

"Did she came out of danger...?"

"Can we see her...?"

Echoed in the empty corridors but one question that caught everyone's attention was,

"How is her baby?"

Nurse frowned in confusion.

Nurse: (confusingly) I don't know.... Was she pregnant? But there is no such evidence in reports.

Nurse declared while a bewildered Cavidan, Cemre and Umit kept on looking at the nurse with their eyes opened like saucers. They didn't thought about it earlier!

They shockingly exchanged looks before Cemre jumped into the conversation.

Cemre: (nervously) Ho ... How could you be so... So sure? (Gaining some strength) You are a liar! She is pregnant, we know it! Her baby's father knows it! She herself knows it!

Nobody understood what and why Cemre was saying. But the most puzzled as well as relived was Emir! Somewhere deep in his heart, he knew that Reyhan can't be pregnant and the nurse proved him right! But he got confused on seeing Cemre taking the charge and proving that Reyhan was actually pregnant.

Emir: (puzzled) Why would she lie, Cemre?!

Cemre suddenly became alert. She knew she had been caught off guard and if she tries to cook some story here then Emir surely gonna catch her red handed. Umit immediately jumped in the conversation and rescued her.

Umit: (clearing his throat) Emir is right! Why would she lie to us? And it could be just a misunderstanding as  we never took her to the hospital or for other test. I'm sure we would have been mistaken her illness with pregnancy.

Emir didn't replied nor bothered to counter them with questions. Instead he stayed silent and asked the nurse about her health. She politely gave him the fine details the left. Emir too dismissed all the family members and stayed back alone. Though Cemre was reluctant to go home at first but keeping her beauty sleep in her mind, she left the hospital alongwith others.
