"Kartik! ", she again called out,pulling me out of my trance. " Sorry.. Sorry.. Mumma.. Woh mei uthane hi wala.. " "Cut the crap, beta! I just wanted to tell you that Mr. Mehta will be in Nagpur tomorrow. Go and meet him. ", she said, rather ordered. " Okay mumma! ", did I have any other option then agreeing? No. " I wish you agreed to my demands with such ease as well! ", she taunted. (I was about to pick.. )
Please, let's not go there. It's.. I don't want to talk about it. Arggghhh.
" Kartik, even Kunal came and took his responsibilities during second year of his residency. I don't understand why you are still stuck in that hospital. Come on, you have a multispeciality hospital of your own. And even the post, the position of yours is waiting for you. ", she again started with the same thing.
" Mumma.. But I don't want to.. " " The moment you finish your residency,I want you to join our hospital. There's no ifs and buts in this. I hope you know it clearly. ", she said, her voice lacing the determination.
" Par.. Mumma, thats not what I want to do.. I.. ", before I could complete the line went off.
She.. She didn't even hear me out. Am I such a bad son? Doesn't she love me? I know she does, but.. But why doesn't she show it ever? Why does she not show affection and love that mother's are usually known for?
No no no.. Don't wander there Kartik. Don't.. I.. I felt my breathing rate increase. My heart.. It began thundering as the same words of Mumma began ringing in my ears. "Kartik, tu surgeon banega! " "Kartik, science it is! " "What do you mean you can't! You have everything that it takes to be a topper! " "Your parents are doctors! You have a standard to maintain, Kartik. " "Kartik, become the Chief Medical Officer of KK group of hospitals! " "Kartik." "Kartik" "Kartik"
The words came to pierce me up into pieces.
I could hear only these words. My heart beats reached my ears, as sweat broke all over my body. I... I couldn't breathe. It felt as if.. As if I'll die.. Just like it feels everytime that this happens. I held my hands on both of my ears, trying to stop those noises but they still reached my eardrums, hitting on it loudly. My legs.. My legs began giving up as I found it difficult to stand still any longer. I was about to fall. I slowly tried sitting on the ground, in the same condition that I was in. My surrounding was all blurring out, as droplets of tears made their way to my eyes.
Just then.. I.. I felt a warm embrace.
My name was being chanted in a tone that held familiarity and was scented with love.
I clutched on to the person who somehow, right now, was the light to my darkness.
The person softly rubbed his hand over my back, as I heard sweet nothings in my ears. The voice soothed my aching heart. It felt like home, something I never had.
