For many people, their lives appear similar to those of suspense thrillers. Every new moment adds to the suspense. And Shehnaaz's life was no different.

She had been experiencing such twists and suspense in her life. She was surprisingly spellbound to see how her life had turned out in the last few days. She had no idea what was in store for her in the future.

It was Monday, but not an ordinary one. It was the day when the surrogacy procedure was to be conducted. From the little information that shehnaaz had about surrogacy, she knew that it was going to be quite uncomfortable for her.

But she was startled when the procedure commenced. The word "uncomfortable" was the tiniest explanation of what she was experiencing. It was unbearable for her.

She was fearful enough to have her forehead layered with droplets of sweat. Doctor Swati was unable to complete her work because she was terrified. Shehnaaz was in an operation theatre where the process of surrogacy was taking place. Because of the immense fear, tears oozed out of her eyes. Dr. Swati noticed the teardrops rolling down. She caressed Shehnaaz and comforted her.

"You don't need to worry about it, Shehnaaz . Everything is fine. See... I know that the procedure is quite uncomfortable, but trust me, this is just a matter of a few more minutes."

, "I know that doctor but... Actually... I..." Shehnaaz replied.

"I understand, Shehnaaz . We could do one thing. I would wait for you to get back to a normal state of mind. Then we shall proceed with the procedure."

With the utmost care, Dr. Swati stated Dr. Swati walked out of the room and left shehnaaz inside to cope up with her anxiousness.

While on the hospital bed, shehnaaz wondered if she would be able to pull it off. Would she be able to bear all the awkwardness that the surrogacy procedure consisted of? For a moment, Shehnaaz thought of denying it and walking out of the clinic. When she was lost in her insecurities, the door of the hospital room opened. Shehnaaz assumed that it was Dr. Swati who had come back.

Shehnaaz was perplexed as to why Dr. Swati had arrived so quickly.
How would I restore my mental stability within a minute? Doesn't she
realise that I might need some more time?" She mumbled to herself.

Shehnaaz was shocked when she saw that it was not Dr. Swati who had come to the room. She was taken aback to see Sidharth before her.

"What is he doing here?" she thought.

Shehnaaz made a weird face when she saw Sidharth inside. And the very next moment she glanced at herself and found herself wrapped in a bedsheet. Even though she was covered with the sheet, shehnaaz could feel the awkwardness within herself when she saw Sidharth before her.

On the other hand, Sidharth was not looking at Amber. Rather he had her eyes fixed at the door and he was standing facing his back towards her. He continued to gaze at the door when he inquired,
"are you fine, Shehnaaz ?"

"Yeah, I am fine." Replied Shehnaaz in a timid voice.

"Oh... So Mr. Shehnaaz Gill has come inside to inquire if I am cooperating well in the procedure or not. But why?" She mumbled to herself.

"Dr. Swati informed me that you got nervous during the procedure.And she had to pause the process in between." Sidharth told her further.

Shehnaaz got scared to hear him say that the procedure was put to a stop due to her nervousness. She concluded that Sidharth had come to vent out his anger on her. He had entered the room just to scold shehnaaz on how she could not stay calm and let the doctor proceed with the steps. He wanted her to let the doctor finish the process all at once.
