Ankit moved to Mumbai after finishing his show. Now, he and Pri live together happily, no longer enduring a long-distance relationship. Ankit took a brief break after completing his show, while Pri was occupied with her new music videos, traveling extensively for shooting and promotions. With their hectic schedules, Pri's health became imbalanced. Despite Ankit's care, her workload prevented her from focusing on her well-being. Ankit noticed changes in her health, but Pri dismissed them, insisting they were not serious.
One morning, Pri and Ankit were sleeping cuddled together. Pri woke up to use the restroom. Upon standing, she immediately sat back down, feeling a bit dizzy. Closing her eyes for a few minutes, she ensured she felt better before standing again to complete her task. Returning to bed, she found Ankit frowning in his sleep, missing her warmth. Pri smiled and lay beside him, snuggling close. Ankit pulled her towards him, and soon his expression relaxed. In a few minutes, Pri also drifted back to sleep as well.
In the morning, Pri and Ankit were working out in the gym and chatting. Suddenly, Pri felt nauseous and quickly ran to the washroom. Seeing her dash away, Ankit followed to check on her. He found Pri vomiting and immediately held her hair back, gently comforting her. After she finished, Pri leaned back against Ankit, tired and breathing heavily. Concerned by her pale face, Ankit wrapped his arm around her and wiped her face with water.
"Pri, how are you feeling now?" Ankit asked, worry evident in his voice.
"I'm okay, Ankit. It's just some digestion problem, I guess," Pri replied wearily.
"Okay, brush your teeth and freshen up. I'll make breakfast for you, and after that, you need to take your medicine," he instructed before leaving to ensure she was feeling better.
After freshening up, Pri sat on the bed, closing her eyes and resting her head against the headboard. Ankit returned with breakfast and juice, sitting in front of her with concern evident on his face. Feeling his gaze, Pri opened her eyes and weakly smiled at him.
"Let's finish this breakfast and juice first, and then you need to take your medicines. After you've regained some energy, we'll go to the hospital for a checkup," Ankit said firmly, knowing Pri disliked hospitals.
As expected, Pri wrinkled her nose at the mention of the hospital. "Ankii, please, I'm fine. It's just vomiting, nothing serious. Why go to the hospital?" she pleaded with adorable puppy eyes. Ankit smiled inwardly at her childish act but maintained a stoic expression.
"No, I'm not taking no for an answer," he replied firmly. Pri made a face but reluctantly started eating breakfast while Ankit watched her closely. Suddenly, Pri felt nauseous again and rushed to the washroom with Ankit following behind. She vomited once more and felt dizzy. Now worried, Ankit lifted her in his arms and gently laid her back on the bed, covering her with a duvet. Pri closed her eyes weakly.
Ankit didn't want to waste any more time. He quickly asked their manager to schedule an immediate appointment with doctor. After half an hour, he woke Pri up, sitting beside her and supporting her as she sat up, wrapping his arm around her shoulders. He brought juice for her to drink.
"Ankii, I'll just throw up again," Pri said weakly.
"No, you need to drink this. You need the energy. Look, you can't even sit up by yourself," Ankit pleaded, unable to bear seeing Pri so unwell.
Pri looked into his eyes, sensing his vulnerability, and nodded reluctantly. Ankit helped her drink the juice slowly. Afterwards, he tied her hair into a messy bun and helped her into a hoodie. Then, he lifted her in his arms to take her to the hospital, as she was too weak to walk.
At the hospital 🏥
Pri made faces as she watched the doctors perform a series of tests as Ankit had insisted. Ankit fake glared at her, signaling her to stay quiet and cooperate. Pri pouted but complied, and Ankit smiled fondly at her antics. After all the tests were done, they sat in front of the doctor.
"Doctor, how's her health? Is everything alright? She vomited twice this morning and felt dizzy. She couldn't stand by herself..." Ankit anxiously fired off questions. Pri looked at Ankit in surprise as he continued without giving the doctor a chance to respond. The doctor smiled, understanding Ankit's concern and love for Pri.
"Mr. Ankit, please relax. I'll explain everything, just calm down," the doctor said with a reassuring smile.
"Sorry," Ankit apologized, realizing he was overwhelming the doctor.
"It's okay, I understand. Now, regarding Miss Priyanka's condition, I think she's been stressing herself too much. She's very weak and appears sleep deprived. Given her already low immunity, she needs to be extra careful about her health," the doctor explained while reviewing the reports.
Pri glanced at Ankit from the corner of her eye, he was glaring at her, but his eyes betrayed his concern.
"So, here's what needs to be done, improve your diet with healthy foods, ensure you get proper rest, try to reduce stress as much as possible, and incorporate immune boosting exercises," the doctor summarized in one go.
Pri nodded, and Ankit mentally noted everything the doctor said, determined to take care of Pri.
"Most importantly, it could be dangerous if your blood pressure continues to fluctuate frequently. So, you must strictly take care of yourself until you're better. Ankit, this is very important, I hope you understand," the doctor emphasized.
Ankit tensed, sensing the seriousness in the doctor's words.
"No problem, Doctor. I'll ensure everything is taken care of. Thank you," Ankit replied earnestly.
"You're welcome. Priyanka, have a speedy recovery," the doctor said warmly. Pri smiled gratefully at him and followed Ankit silently out of the office. Throughout the drive home, Ankit was unusually quiet, visibly scared and upset with Pri for neglecting her health. Pri glanced at Ankit, who was focused on the road. She cleared her throat to get his attention, but he ignored it.
"Ankiii..." she began tentatively, but Ankit cut her off.
"Stay quiet, Pri," he said emotionlessly.
Pri thought to herself, 'I'm in trouble today, stupid Pri, all because of your negligence.'
Upon reaching home, Pri silently followed Ankit inside. He changed his clothes and went to the kitchen to prepare a fresh breakfast for her. Pri watched, somewhat admiring Ankit as he worked in the kitchen. After a few minutes, he returned with breakfast, handing her a plate and gesturing for her to eat. Pri ate silently, appearing obedient outwardly but throwing lot of tantrums internally. Ankit brought juice and medicine and sat beside her. Pri looked at Ankit, who was focused on checking her medications.
"Ankii, won't you talk to me?" she asked cutely, knowing her charm could soften anyone, including Ankit, though he resisted and continued to ignore her.
"Ankii, please, I'm fine now," Pri insisted.
"No, you're not fine, Priyanka. I always tell you not to neglect your health, but you never listen to me. Look at what happened now. Do you know how scared I was seeing you vomit continuously and looking so pale? My heart nearly stopped when I saw you almost losing consciousness. How can you say you're fine?" Ankit's voice rose with concern. Pri felt remorseful, not for Ankit raising his voice, but for causing him worry. Seeing her sad expression, Ankit closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and pulled her close, kissing her forehead.
"I'm sorry, Pari, but I'm scared of anything happening to you. Tell me, how would you feel if I were in your condition?" he asked gently.
"Sorry," Pri murmured, looking down.
"Okay, okay. Now, finish your breakfast quickly like a good girl," he said, pointing at her half-eaten plate. Pri smiled softly and finished her breakfast, then took her medicines. The medication made her drowsy, and Ankit watched as she drifted off to sleep. He gently lifted her and carried her to the bedroom, laying her down without disturbing her. He joined her in bed, pulling her into his embrace and covering both of them with a duvet. Soon, they both drifted off to sleep.
