TRAGEDY TO TREASURE (COMPLETED)

Chapter 41

The nurse came out of the room.

Abhishek: Can we meet Vaishnavi?

Nurse: Yes. Please don't create a crowd here but.

Abhishek nodded. Nurse left. Abhishek sighed and took Reem.

Abhishek: Avneet main 2min me aaya.

He went into the room with Reem. They saw Vaishnavi sleeping peacefully. Dripper was attached to her hand.

Abhishek sat on a stool.

Abhishek: See maa so gayi hain na. Jab uthegi na tab main Reem ke pass leke aata hoon.

Reem (patting Vaishnavi's arm): Maa...

Abhishek: Arey! So gayi hain na. Aese nahin uthate. Mami ghoomne jaa rahi hain. Reemi jayegi sath me?

Reem nodded.

Abhishek: Chalo phir. Maa se hum morning me baat karege. Bahut gussa bhi karege aese kaise so gayi meri Reemi ke bina, okay?

Reem nodded with a pout. She bend and pecked Vaishnavi's cheek. Abhishek smiled looking at Reem. He then took her out.

Avneet: Chale Reemi?

Reem nodded. She took Reem in her arms. Abhishek took out the keys from his pocket. He gave it to Avneet.

Abhishek: Reem ke clothes ya kuch chaye to ghar se le lena.

Avneet nodded, keeping the keys in the bag.

After they all left.

Siddharth: Main aaya.

Abhishek nodded. Siddharth left. Abhishek went into the room. He sat on a stool and held Vaishnavi's hand in his.

Abhishek: Get well soon. We are waiting for you.

He sighed.

Abhishek: Tumhe pata hain yehi hospital hain jaha Reemi ka birth hua tha. This is the same hospital jaha maine Reemi ko kho diya tha. Ab pata nahin kyun par bahut dar lag raha hain. Please get well soon. You know tum humare life ka important part ban gayi ho. We need you.

He kissed her hand, still holding it. Tears were rolling down his cheeks. Siddharth was standing at the entrance with food in his hands. He took a deep breath and step back. He knocked on the door. Abhishek wiped his tears and asked him to come in. Siddharth pretended like he just came.

Siddharth: Abhi sandwich leke aaya hoon. Aaja kha le kuch.

Abhishek looked at Vaishnavi and then stood up. He went and sat on the sofa. Siddharth sat beside him. They had dinner in silence.

With others. As they reached the society. Reem slept on Avneet's shoulder.

Avneet: Main Abhi ke ghar se Reem ka saman lati hoon.

Mallika: Hmm... Reemi mujhe do hum ghar jate. Tum aao.

Avneet agreed. Sumedh and Mallika went to their home with Reem. Avneet went to Abhishek's house.

With Avneet, She reached to the floor and was opening the door when Rehana came there.

Rehana: Avneet?

Avneet (confused): Aunty aap yaha?

Rehana: Main Vaishnavi se kuch baat karne aayi thi. Door lock hain. Kaha hain Abhishek aur Vaishnavi?

Avneet (sighed): Vo vaishu ka accident hua hain. Vaishnavi hospital me hain. Abhishek uske sath hain.

Rehana (shocked): Haan? Vaishnavi theek to hain? Bahut lagi hain kya?

Avneet: Treatment chal raha hain uska. Dr ne kaha hosh aane ke baad hi uski condition bata sakte hain.

Rehana (with disguise face): Or vo kidhar hain?

Avneet (raising her eyebrow): Vo kaun?

Asked Avneet knowing she is talking about Reem.

Rehana: Janam lete hi apni maa ko maar diya or ab Vaishnavi ko. Isko mere bacho se door rakhna padega.

Avneet (rolling her eyes): Vaishnavi aapki bachi kab se hui? Itna pyaar bahu ke liye mujhe to bilkul hazam nahin ho rahi hain baat or ek baat aaj jo bakwaas ki Reem ke liye. Phir se ki to seedha police station me miloge. Bolne se pehle soch lena.

Rehana (ignoring her words): Kaun se hospital me hain?

Avneet: Pata nahin.

With this Avneet opened the door and went in, leaving Rehana there. She took Reem's necessary things and came out to see Rehana standing there. Ignoring Rehana, Avneet went from there. Rehana fumed in anger. She left from there cursing Avneet in mind.
