All The Stars (Stars Trilogy#2)

Ch. 34 -Kaira-

Please wake up, Ishaan!

We were all outside the OT where Ishaan was being operated. Aisha was silently crying while holding me. My eyes were also swelled up.

Avni had gone to fetch us drinks becuase it had been 4 fucking hours but they haven't given us any news.

I want him back. I am ready to do anything just to have him back by my side, with all his flirty lines and lame jokes. Even if he doesn't remember, which can be a probability doctore stated before the operation, I will make him remember me. Just come back, Ishaan.

His family came running, and as they were out of the city for a function, they couldn't come immediately.

"Bhaiya. Ishaan is in OT." Krish said, who obviously knew his family.

Aunty put a hand on my shoulder, and that was my cue to break. I stood up and hugged her.

"Don't cry beta, he will be okay. He is my strong soilder." She said.

"And he absolutely hates when you cry." Bhabhi chirped in, trying to light the mood.

After some time, Bhaiya took Bhabhi back home because she was pregnant and was sleepy. Misha came in front of me.

"Di, here tissue. Chachu said to give it to you if he ever made you cry." She said, handing me customized tissues. Each one had a small pj on the corner.

She too exited with Bhabhi, Aunty and Bhaiya. Although Bhaiya came back immediately after dropping them off.

"Kaira, can we talk?" He asked. I nodded and followed him.

"You knew Prateek was dangerous, then also you went to him." He said, is he telling me that if I hadn't went then nothing would have happened to Ishaan. Although it's correct, everything again is my fault in first place.

"Bhaiya, I seriously didn't want anything  to happen to Ishaan and that Prateek threatened that he would kill Ishaan if I didn't come." I said sobbing.

"I am nlt worried for Ishaan. He will come back. His love for you is so strong that it can literally empty all the oceans, and when I see you like this here, I conclude one thing, that you also love him from the depths of your heart." Bhaiya said.

"I love him, Bhaiya, more than anything, and more than anyone." I said weeping, and he pulled in a light hug.

Just then, the doctor came out and announced that the operation was successful, but unfortunately, there was a lot of internal bleeding, so the patient was gonna take time to slip off unconsciousness.

"Guys, you all go, I will wait here with him." I said, looking at Ishaan, who was supported by tubes and bandages and fluid bottles.

And it again reminded me how stupid I have been, not accepting him in the starting, dragging him into Prateeks's matter. He was lying because of me, and that was the inevitable truth.

Eventually, after much convincing, they left, and Bhaiya stayed as he had to take care of bills are paper work.

I just sat there looking at Ishaan. His brown eyes, which were no longer gazing at me, and his lips, which I am terribly missing on mine. His bear hugs and the efforts he made for me. I never met a more persistent man than him.

After a whole two hours, I almost fell asleep holding his hand when he stirried.

"Ishaan?" I asked softly. He slowly opened his eyes.

"Ishaan." I said in conformity. And pressed the bell to call the doctor and nurse.

Everyone rushed in, and I was pushed out. Bhaiya, too, came and stood beside me.

"See, I told you." He said, and I nodded in hope.

We both went in after the doctor, and nurses filed out.

"Bhaiya." Ishaan said like a child, and Bhaiya side hugged him.

"Welcome back, champ." Bhaiya said, and Ishaan grinned.

"Hi." I said finally.

He gave me a skeptical look and said,

"Who are you?" And that one question shattered my heart into billion peices. Bhaiya looked at me with worry in his face, but I just gave him a sad smile.

"You seriously don't remember her? She is Kaira Bhardwaj." Bhaiya said, but Ishaan shook his head in negative.

Tears again started rolling down my cheeks as I dashed out of the room. I bumped into someone and muttered a small apology, but that person didn't let go, so I took at him.

Aman, Krish, Avni, and Aisha were here. Yeah, I notified them when Ishaan woke up. Krish was holding me, his hands are made of steel or what? Such a tight grip.

"What happened, Kaira? Why are you crying like that?" Aisha said smoothly, rubbing my back.

"Ishaan doesn't remember me." I said between hiccups.

"That's not possible in this birth or any other." Avni said, coming to my other side.

"We will go and see him." Aman and Krish dashed out from there, and Aishu made me sit on the bench.

"Don't cry like this, Kaira. We can't see you like this." Avni said, putting her head on my shoulder.

"What now haan? I lost the only person who truly believed and loved me. Whom I never wanted to suffer because of me. Whom I have started to grow so fond of and comfortable with after a really, really long time. I lost him all over." I said, holding my head in my hands, sobbing quietly.

She was also silent for some time when Krish came and called us inside, too.

"The Kaira I know never gives up." Aisha said before walking inside with Avni.
