NeiRohi / Arohi (OS Book)

Without you

              it's past 4 PM, A girl in her mid 20s sitting on the bed with a emotionless face looking lost in her thoughts. the surge of emotions she's feeling now is could not be expressed by the words, "Arohii.... Arohiiii" the fainted words fell on her ears to bring her back to the senses. moving her face to the direction of voice she looked at the person, there Shefali her jethani stands near her holding a juice tray on her hand. "Arohi tumhe dress change nahi kiya" (Arohi didn't you change your dress?) Shefali as she's still in that white salwaar, for which Arohi just slightly moved her head in negative. "theek hai. ye juice peeyo" (okay, drink this juice) saying so Shefali forwarded the glass to Arohi. "Nahi bhabhi. mujhe bhook nahi hai" (No bhabhi.... I'm not hungry) Arohi said in a very low tone without even trying to look at her. "Arohi.... tumhe kuch toh khana hi padega abhi Manjiri chachi bhi hospital mein h..." (Arohiii..... you have to eat somthing... Manjiri chachi is in hospital now....she...) Shefali was saying that how Manjiri's health deteriorates and now she's hospitalized. "K-Kyaa huaa Maa ko?...." (W-Whatt happened to maa?) Arohi asked getting little tensed. "Arohi, ro roke Chachi ki tabhiyaat bohut kharab ho gayi hai. isliye Abhimanyu aur sab unhe hospital leke chali gaye hai" (Arohi, Chachi's fell ill because of crying continuously..... that's why Abhimanyu and others took her to the hospital) Shefali explained making her relax. "theek hai main shivu ko dekhe aati hoon, tab tak tum ye juice finish karna...." (okay, I'm going to check on Shivu till then you finish this juice....) Shefali said in concern, placing the juice tray on the beside table she went out of the room. even though she tried to console her she couldn't as she never been so close to Arohi the way she was with Akshara.

Arohi got worried about Manjiri and didn't even know what and all happened in the house as all the while, her mind and heart was filled with the thoughts of the person who she lost few hours ago. she took her phone which is laying on the bed beside her, after thinking for a moment she dialed Abhimanyu's number and the called was answered in a ring. "Hello.... maa kaisi hai Abhimanyu?" (Hello.... how is maa now Abhimanyu?) Arohi asked making Abhimanyu realize that the call is from Arohi as he didn't look at the caller I'd before answering. "maa abhi stable hai aur maine gynac ko ghar beja hai tumhari check up keliye.... sab theek hai" (Maa is stable now and I have sent the gynac to house for your check up..... everything is fine heree) Abhimanyu said as just before the call Mahima talked about it to him. "haan, main tumse maa ki health ke baare mein updates lete rahungi" (okay, I'll get the updates about ma's health from you) Arohi said before ending the call. she never been so close to any of the family members even after her several attempts, she also never showed them over care or love like Akshara as it's not her nature to be good with the people who are not ready to give her a bare minimum love or respect but still she do care for them, she got worried when Shefali said about Manjiri's health. even though Manjiri never treated her as her daughter and was adjusting with her only because she's her son's wife. but Arohi couldn't think about all that as of now, she's mentally or physically to weak and broken to any other death in the family on the same day.

shrugging off her thoughts she slowly gets up from the bed holding her tummy, as after hearing the Gynac word only Arohi remembered that she's not alone and have a baby inside her to take care. she looked at the juice tray and went to take it, "mujhe baby keliye kuch khana hi padega, I'm sorry baby" (I have to eat something for the sake of baby.... I'm sorry babyy) she said holding her non visible baby bump. taking the glass in her hand, she is about to sip it. "Reminder for lakeside walk with Chamkadar" "Reminder for lakeside walk with Chamkadar" "Reminder for lakeside walk with Chamkadar" Arohi flinched hearing the buzzing voice alarm from her phone. as soon as she heard this, the glass slipped from her hand and fell on the floor shattering into pieces. all the memories from the morning when she had a last conversation with her husband Neil to how an hour she was crying for her life breaking down on her husband's dead body.
