Roop's Pov
My heart was pounding, a mix of relief and lingering fear swirling inside me as the doctor explained Aary's condition. He was out of danger, and the surgery was successful. But he might take a few hours to wake up, and only then doctors can tell us, exactly how he is.
Out of danger, successful surgery-those words were like a balm to my frayed nerves, but the wait felt endless. I had clung to every moment, every second dragging by as I hoped for this miracle.
It had been 2 hours since the doctor told us that Aary was out of surgery. For two long hours, I sat outside Aary's room, watching him through the small glass window. Sometimes I stood, my eyes never leaving his peaceful face. Other times, I sat with my head resting on Bhai's or Rahul's shoulder. It was a cycle that had been our reality for three days.
Stella had been an angel. An hour ago, she brought lunch for us. She'd been taking care of our meals, by bringing us food and coffee all the time. Taking me to her home, making me get ready, telling me different stories of hers, Aary's and Niko's. Yep, Nikolai told me to call him Niko.
In return, I told Stella many of my fun times. We've talked a lot for 2 days. She kept my mind from spiraling into the darkness of nightmares about losing my Aary. I'm so grateful to have her. She's already started preparing for our wedding, telling me how she'll wear all the traditional Indian attire for each wedding ritual and how Niko would react to each one of them. By what she said, I'm sure, Niko is just as obsessed with Stella, as Aary is obsessed with me.
Their story was quite fun to listen to though.
This morning, when Stella and Niko came for breakfast, they brought Ethan Morozov with them, another friend of Aary and Rahul. It was like a quadruple of them: Aary, Rahul, Niko, and Ethan. Ethan Morozov is a powerful man, and you can tell that just by his looks and aura. Too dangerous.
I had every intention of telling Aary and Rahul to stay away from them, but even they give off the same vibes-cold and dangerous. But that's only when I'm not around. With me and Vedika, they're like cutie patooties. I can assure that.
Ethan apologized for not being there when needed. But it was totally fine due to his reason. His wife was pregnant and just this early morning, they got blessed with a baby boy. Zayden. Such a lovely name, right?
He also promised that he'll be the first one present at our wedding, with his wife and son. Obviously, he's going to be one of the groomsmen of Aary. They have a pact or something like that.
Kaya Maa, Shree Kaka, Papa, and Maa were on their way here. Yesterday, Rahul called Shree Kaka and explained the whole situation to him. I was shocked to see how Shree Kaka handled and listened to Rahul talk about mafia groups, attacks, and everything so patiently as if it were a casual thing. That's when I realized that Shree Kaka had known everything from the beginning.
