My intention for mentioning the total no. of words is to show you , how much of attention , hard work and patience I put in a single chapter . And how you slowly break that patience with you lack of support .

Even if you don't vote on the chapters , still I will update . There is no doubt . But the lack of votes sometimes stop me from writing any other extra scenes which might enhance the chapter .

Upon hearing the door creak open, she quickly adjusted her posture while still clasping his hand tightly. A gentle touch on her shoulder made her turn around, only to see Kaushalya standing there. Kaushalya inquired, "Woh apne jaan se kaise gussa ho sakta hai ?"

Rumaisa gazed at her with teary eyes and asked, trying to hold back her tears. "Maa aap boliye na apne bete ko . Woh aapki baat hamesha mante hain . Woh uth jayenge"

Witnessing Rumaisa in a similar state as Ranvijay once was, brought tears to Kaushalya's eyes. She gently wiped her daughter-in-law's tears away and whispered words of comfort. "Shh Shh meri bacchi ."

The going got tough for everyone, but it hit Rumaisa the hardest. While everyone else decided to leave the hospital, Rumaisa wasn't prepared to let go. However, Ankush chose to stay behind, offering his assistance during the night. As the others departed, Anusuya's anger towards her daughter prevented her from visiting Rumaisa. Neither Rumaisa tried to meet with her .

As the night unfolded, Rumaisa found herself seated beside Ranvijay, their hands intertwined. Resting her head on the edge of the bed, she succumbed to sleep without even realizing it.

The weariness, exhaustion, and her own well-being overpowered her, causing her to drift off into a deep slumber . She slept soundly throughout the night, only to wake up the next morning with a stiff neck and waist from maintaining the same position.

As the first rays of sunlight streamed into the bedroom, she stirred awake. A sharp hiss escaped her lips as she attempted to straighten her stiff neck. Gradually, she managed to sit upright and opened her eyes. Her gaze immediately fell upon the figure lying beside her, and her vision cleared in an instant.

Overwhelmed with emotion, tears welled up in her eyes, causing her to choke back a sob. Rising from her seat, she wiped away the tears and settled on the edge of the bed next to him. Leaning down, she tenderly caressed his cheek, whispering a heartfelt good morning before planting a gentle kiss on his lips.

As she sat there, her gaze fixated on his face. The face that once radiated with glow and pride now appeared dull. His eyes, which always held an abundance of love and affection for her, were now closed.

A wave of remorse washed over her as she recalled her behavior towards him in the past few days. How cruel she had been. The weight of her actions made her feel like smacking herself. A sob escaped her lips, and she made no attempt to wipe away the tears that streamed down her face. She believed she deserved every single one of them. Leaning in, she pressed a gentle kiss on his forehead once more.

She was startled by a sudden knock at the door. Quickly drying her tears, she gently placed his hand next to him before standing up. Opening the door, she found Ayudh standing there. The look on his face spoke volumes about the night he had endured. Despite his attempt at a smile, it didn't quite reach his eyes. Stepping aside, she allowed him to enter.
