Pankhuri pov....

It's Saturday today and I am chilling with Aunty and Uncle while He is lazily sprawled on the bean bag working on his laptop.

Sanjana will come back to India Monday and he is planning to surprise her .
I helped him too .

I just really adore how much he loves his wife .
He is rude , arrogant, egoistic, Air headed but a caring person and a loving husband to his wife.

Not everyone is Lucky to have someone as loving as him .
I just pray to God to keep him happy like this only.

Aunty was telling me about her pregnancy experience and how difficult it was for her during his time and he looked up from the screen for a moment, gave us a look and got back to his work again making me chuckle.

He just wants everyone to talk about him and praise him a lot .....such a  childish man he is .

Uncle phone rang and he picked it up keeping his tea cup aside .

Kya ....how is this possible.....Are you sure Sanjana was there too ......He asked shocked and stood up immediately causing her to stand too .

What happened Dad .....who was it and what about Sanjana...... Vidyut asked Uncle.

There was an open fire in a club in New York.....As per reports 30 people have died..... Sanjana was there too with her friend.....He said and I gasped in shock .

She will be fine ....I know....Vidyut said although I could feel his body tensed.

He left from there calling someone.
Ohhh God please keep her safe ......I have lost my mother....I don't want my little human to lose mother too....I prayed .

We came inside and sat in the hall and Uncle was calling people to know about Sanjana...

My body was shivering and I felt like pucking.
I came to my room and puked my guts out .
The flashes of the Day my mother met the accident reflected in front of my eyes and I felt everything spinning around me .

I somehow reached the bed and sat there clutching my head .
I could feel my heart beat rising up and I felt difficultly in breathing.

Ohhh Nooo....I am getting a panic attack......

I managed to pick up the phone and rang Aunty .
Auntyyyy_ I struggled to form words and she understood my condition.

Aunty and Uncle came rushing into my room and they panicked too seeing my deteriorating condition.

The last I heard was  Aunty asking Uncle to rush me to the hospital and I blacked out .

***********

I opened my eyes to find myself in the same hospital where my mother was admitted.
There was no one in the room and I remembered about Sanjana and the news .....

I immediately sat up and cried in pain as the canulla on the back of my palm  has a saline attached.

I pressed the red button Asking for help . I felt uneasy.
I didn't have my phone and no one was there beside me.

Uncle and Aunty must have left for home as they have a family member in danger .
I want to be there with them ....

A nurse came and looked at me .
Please keep lying.. don't try to get up ....She said .

I want to go home ....I said .
You can leave in the morning if Doctors permit you .
It's 1 am currently. Just go back to sleep...she said and I lied down helplessly.

I closed my eyes but sleep was no where near me .
I mind was flooded with negative thoughts and I felt restless again ..

I got second panic attack' and I pressed the red button.
I waited for some help .... tears started flowing from my eyes and my throat felt chocked.

The nurse came and she called for a doctor and rubbed my palm asking me to breathe.

The doctors injected me and I didn't remember anything after that.
My mother's face flashed in front of me before my eyes and a lone tear escaped a I shut them .

Maaa........

Vidyut pov ......

Everyone around me is crying and wailing for Sanjana but I am not feeling anything at this moment.

Nothing could happen to her . She is coming back to me on Monday. I have planned a surprise for her ......

I know her brother is lying....she just couldn't die. .......she just cannot leave me .
I  won't let her go .

She has to come back.....for me ...for our unborn baby .
I know I was angry with her for avoiding me all these days and now I am even more angry at her for pulling such a stunt.

I know she is doing this to make me regret.....she is a stubborn women.....but she knows how I am ....

I felt irritated with my mother and Vaani's cries .
Please stop crying all of you .......I shouted.
Nothing has happened to her .
I am tired of saying the same thing again and again.

She is just pranking me . She will come back on Monday.
Don't you get that .
She will be here ......I know her better than any of you ......

Vaani atleast you should understand this ......I looked at my sister who palmed her mouth and cried silently.

Vidyut ....get a hold on yourself beta ....... accept the reality...... Sanjana is no more with us.

Her body will be reaching here by tomorrow evening......Dad said and I looked at him in disbelief and anger rushed in my veins.

Don't say anything like this about my wife ....she is not a body ....she is a human ...all fine and Alive .......

Kuch nahi hua hai .....vo majak kar rahi hai ....uska bhai bhi mila hua hai saath mei .......I said and rushed to my room .

I threw my phone aside and clutched my hair tightly.
I looked at our photo that hung on the wall in front of me .

Sanjana.......your plan of pranking me has flopped .
Infact I will surprise you when you will come back .......

You must be thinking that I will be crying after your sick joke but no ......
I will shock you .......I will decorate our room for you with my own hands ......

These people have fallen in your trap but I  won't.
Where is Pankhuri.....I know she will help me .....she will believe in me .

She has become such a good friend of mine.
She knows about the surprise......she will surely help me unlike all those people who are crying.

I came downstairs again......
Raniiii .....I called for Rani Asking her about Pankhuri as she is not in her room .

Bhaiya...Didi ji ko toh hospital le gaye the shaam mei...she informed me .
Kya..... hospital kyu .....kya hua hai usse .....bilkul thik thi vo .....I said but she didn't say anything.

I grabbed my keys and rushed to the hospital to check on Pankhuri.

Pankhuri Roy ....I inquired about her on the reception.
I am not feeling well myself. It's all because of Sanjana.
I won't spare her once she will be back .

I reached pankhuri room and it was around early morning......my head is bursting with pain .

Sir .....you can't meet the patient at this time....The nurse stopped Me and I glared at her .
She is my friend......she is pregnant too with my baby .....I need to meet her ......ai need her help.....I said and she looked at me weiredly.

Sir ...but she is under the effects of drug and is sleeping now .
She just had a panic attack few hours back .....she informed shocking me .

What is happening around me ....first Sanjana and then Pankhuri.........
I felt sick and my gut twisted painfully.

The nurse looked at me worried .
Sir , are you not feeling well .....she asked me as I sat on the couch .

I am not feeling Good .....I said to her as sweat appeared on my forehead.
She instantly called for help and they laid me on the stretcher and took me to an adjacent room ..

They injected me and My body loosened up .
I need to plan a surprise.....I thought before shutting my eyes......
