Baby on board - Maaneet Short story

Chapter 9

I felt that somebody pulled me hard. A huge force. I was closing my eyes. I was afraid to open them. I was unsure if I was alive or not. I felt suffocated & dizzy.

After few hours

I tried to open my eyes. But it was hard. I felt that I was carrying a thousand pounds on my eye lids. They were heavy than anything. I could almost hear my heart beat. Am I alive? 

'Doctor!' I heard somebody calling. I heard noises in the background, but I couldn't identify where I was. I could open my eyes after much effort, but my vision was blurred. I could see a white figure.

'Geet, are you doing fine?' I heard an anonymous voice. After a few minutes I figured out that I was in a hospital. But how did I end up here?

'Ahh.. me? Where am I?' I inquired.

'First tell me how are you feeling?' The doctor asked me.

'I.. I am fine.' I touched my body. There weren't any wounds. I am alive! I was saved. But who took me to a hospital? I just can't remember anything.

'Geet you've been saved from a major accident which was about to happen in seconds. If Mr. Maan Sigh Khurana hadn't pulled you off from the road, you wouldn't have survived.'

'What? uh?' Maan sir ? Maan sir had saved me.

'Relax Geet! Let me call him.'

Doctor called Maan sir inside. Maan sir rushed in to the room in a hurry. He seemed to be so much worried. 

'Geet!' He sat beside me. A tear dropped from his eyes. 

'Are you fine?' He cupped my face.

I nodded my head confirming that I am okay. He hugged my tightly in the very next second.

'Thank god you are fine.' He caressed my hair. 'You don't know I much I was worried.'

He broke the hug & kept caressing my face. His eyes were filled with tears. I know they were happy ones. 

'Geet, you should take care of yourself okay? Don't fret too much. You were fainted after you were saved by Mr. Khurana. May be you have feared death & tensed at the same time. You may rest for a couple of weeks!'

I nodded my head. I just couldn't speak a single world. Maan sir made me speechless. He had saved my life.

'I have prescribed some medicines, you can collect them from the Pharmacy, Mr. Khurana. Geet can go home in another couple of hours.' 

'Thank you so much doctor!' Maan sir thanked him. The doctor left the room leaving only two of us in the room alone.
