Neil looked up. "Ash..ashish Mehta!" He said. "Don't you dare! It's your fault she is in this condition. Don't waste our time." He said angrily and pushed him and carried Avni to the ambulance waiting outside. He sat with her while it took off and Neil was left behind thinking what just happened. He's right. It's all your fault. His thoughts were broken by Dd. "Well what are you waiting for? Come." Neil simply nodded and they both ran to their jeep. "Dd if she wakes up and finds him by her side-" Neil started but was cut off by Dd. "Three possibilities. First, he's so gonna be dead. Second, she'll go into some kind of trauma. Third, we all are gonna be so dead." He finished for him. "SHE WON'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT."Neil shouted seeing how casually he was taking it. Dd looked at him with pity. "She won't. We know that. She'll not show it to any of us." He said. "I just said to clear the air you know. Never had a peaceful and ligjt day ever. I am sorry." He said while looking at the steering but quickly looked up on the road for driving again. Neil patted his shoulder. They reached the hospital a few minutes after the ambulance. Neil had informed the family along with Neela. They too were arriving soon. "There's a new entry. From the Central Jail. Where's she?" He asked the receptionist. "The Operation theatre on the fourth floor. Right hand corridor." She said without looking up. Neil literally ran up there while Dd moved, panting trying to keep pace. As soon as they reached there they saw Ashish pacing to and fro. When he caught his eye,he gathered his fingers to form a fist. Neil approached further. "Why are you here? To interrogate her? Let her have her operation in peace atleast." Neil first thought that adrenaline was rushing through Ashish so he was saying these things. He listened. He couldn't take anymore. "You are blaming me? What did you ever do to her? Even you sent her to jail. Remember Mr. Mehta? And why, why have you come after all these years? She was better off without you." Neil shouted. He couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't see his love for her getting questioned. Only Avni had that right. No one else. "She's better off without you even. You and your family only gave her sorrow. You always made her unhappy. Accept it. All those years I was not away. I didn't have the strength to face her. But I always had an eye on her. When I found she lived you happily and found a family which I.." His voice trailed off. He shed a few tears and then wiping his tears with his sleeve, Ashish continued "Which I was never able to give her. I was wrong. I considered you as the best for her. I was wrong." He said more sternly. "Mark your words Ashish. You are wrong. Neil is the perfect choice for her." Neela said in a defensive mode. Neil didn't realise that the family had arrived. Ashish sighed deeply and looked at the other side. Neil collapsed in a bench nearby and let his tears out. The light dimmed and the doctor arrived. "What type of care is given in your prison officer?" He asked Neil. Neil looked up. He went up to her ignoring the question. "How is she?" He asked . "She's in coma. We can't predict anything. But if she wakes up,it is truly a miracle." Neil stumbled but Prakash caught him. Coma. A tough stage. He couldn't believe it. She can't just do it to her right? "I just met my daughter. That too in an unconsious state. Why is it? Why is it whenever I come to her,she isn't properly healed?" He cursed himself. "THAT IS BECAUSE OF THE WOUNDS THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN TO HER! THEY ARE PERMANENT. GET IT IN ASHISH." Neela shouted before slumping in, before sobbing. Neil was in no state either. "Lets not blame each other. Please. She needs us. All of us." Bebe said while seeing Ashish, Neela and Neil. The culprits. "Why him?" Neela asked pointing at Ashish. "Why us Ma? Even we didn't do anything good." Neil said finally. "Neil stop blaming yourself. Vidyut loved her. We had no other option." Neela said frowning. Neil stood up and went to Ashish. "I know her. At this time she would want us to be together. I am sorry for shouting at you. I am tired maybe." He said apologising. Ashish melted a bit. He just nodded accepting the apology. "Maybe you are not too bad. Even I was devastated. I am sorry as well." He apologized too. Neil hugged Ashish after hesitating a bit.
They were going to pacify her together.
