21. Breaking of bridge between hearts

A week had already passed with sweetness and care inculcated in it. Anubhav took utmost care of her keeping a check to fulfill all her wishes and make her heal soon.
Starting from her diet to physical and mental fitness, he was conscious about everything.

"Haseena ji!" Anubhav called her while She was engrossed in her book. She was so much into it that she couldn't even hear him.

Anubhav entered inside the room and became confused seeing her blushing. He called her again and this time louder, making her startle.

"Ji-ji sir kahiye!" She blurted hurriedly closing the novel.

"Paanch baj gaye, garden mein nahi jaana?" He asked. This has become regular now. 99He was taking her to his house garden, terrace or sometimes for a night round in the streets.

" Umm haan haan jaana hai na! " She said cause she never missed this as after living inside the house for so much time she felt suffocated and when Anubhav came to know about this he decided to take her outside everyday.

In the garden

Anubhav was wheeling her in the garden by the boundaries which were adorned by beautiful flowering plants. Suddenly Anubhav stopped.

" Haseena ji!" He called her coming in front of her. She nodded.

" Chaliye uthiye! " He said confusing her.

" Kya keh rahe hain aap sir, hum kaise...?"  She asked indicating her legs.

" Chalne ki koshish toh kijiye. Aapko yaad hai doctor ne kya kaha tha? body movement badhega toh mid riff jaldi recover karega!" He said trying to convince her. But she was still skeptical. She had remembered the words of the doctor but she couldn't gather courage to stand. The injury had somehow made her mentally weak.

" Par hum-hum..." Haseena fumbled as she was confused as well as nervous.

" Ghabraiye mat haseena ji, hum hain aapke saath!" He said in comforting voice holding her hands. Her cold hands became warm as he pressed them slightly to relax her.

" Chaliye humara haath pakadiye aur back straight karke uthe ki kosish kijiye!" He instructed her softly. She tightened her hold on his palm as she tried to stand.

"Ahhh!" She screamed in pain as unfortunately she couldn't even make her back straight as a shooting pain was surging through her back as she tried to do so.

"Koshish kijiye haseena ji, aap kar sakti hain!" His trust on her was somehow encouraging her a lot. She slightly straightened her back and put both the foot on the grass. She again tried to stand but couldn't.

She tried to stand three-four times but couldn't. She leaned on the chair breathing heavily due to pain. Her eyes teared in pain and misery.

"Haseena ji, aap ro rahi hain!" Anubhav exclaimed seeing tears falling from her eyes.

"Toh aur kya kare? Jinda putla ban gaye hain hum. Khade tak nahi ho paa rahe hum!" She said being disheartened. Anubhav knelt to match her height. And cupped her face wiping the tears.

"Apne aap inta kamzor kyun samajh rahi hain aap? Ye toh apki aadat nahi thi. Aap na jane kitno ke liye prerna hain. Vishesh roop se humare liye! " His sweet words touched her heart.

" Par-" Anubhav cut her sentence

Aap Haseena Mallik hain, wo Haseena Mallik Jo bade bade cases ek chutki suljha deti hai!" His last line reminded her of that coffee night. When he had said her the same line holding her close to his heart. Her fluttered at the memory. His inspiring words and belief on her capability made her strong.
