Ashish composed Neil while patting his back lightly.
Neil turned on the doctor and asked-"Can I see her?" The doctor nodded and he went inside. To say there were less equipments on her would be an understatement. It was as if all the pipes and instruments were used on her only. He went and sat besides her, listening to her slow breathing.
It was really difficult for her. To breathe. In there. Was I late in saving her? Will she be like this? Forever? No. Nothing will happen to her. She's a fighter. He just looked at her lovingly. You are in hospital jaan. You still manage to look outstanding. That was one aspect of her. Beautiful. Yet bold. Brainy. Fierce. And that golden streak in her hair added more to her beauty. He caressed her gently. "How much I miss your bluish brown eyes Avni. They make me see the sky from a tree. Just like you. Breathtaking they are." He said while smiling and touching her closed eyelids. "Beat me as much as you want to. I'll be your servant. I'll take care of you. No harm can reach you now. Us. We'll be together. If you want to. Now even your dad has come. If we all sort things together, we'll be the greatest and the most perfect family ever. Just like you. Only if you.." He trailed off as she gasped. Her heartbeats were slow at one moment. Fast at the another. Neil got very tensed and quickly went.
He stumbled on the way as panic arose in him on the thought of something happening to her. Seeing him coming out like this everyone got up to him but he just ran to call the doctor. He asked everyone to go out. Everyone just paced to and fro but Neil just stood in front of the glass door looking at what was happening to her. The nurses blew the curtains at the door blocking his view. After a few hours the doctor came out with a small smile playing on his face. "The miracle has happened. She's out of danger. But we'll still keep her under observation. The entire family at the same time was about to enter but the doc stopped them. "Two at a time. She can't handle too much. Together." He said walking away. They were looking at each other to see who's going to go. Finally Bebe spoke breaking the ice. "Prakash and me will go. The rest of you." She said pointing at Shweta,Neela,Neil and Ashish "will stay here. None of you will go. She won't be able to see you. She'll break again." "But Bebe what have I done?" Shweta asked innocently. "You haven't treated her well in the past. Recently you did but you will surely say something about Neil in between. So better stay her." Bebe replied. Shweta opened her mouth again to speak but closed it seeing Bebe's deathly glare. They both went inside. Her eyes were slightly ajar. But she was still on the ventilator. They both went and sat on her opposite sides. Avni opened her eyes a bit to see who it was. "D..Dad." She whispered. Prakash just nodded with a small smile. Even he was afraid that his post of dad to her would be snatched from him if she accepted Ashish. Prakash lovingly cupped her face. "You are not going to be in the jail anymore. You'll be out. With me. And her. " He whispered back pointing at Bebe. Avni had brink of tears in her eyes. She let them flow because she knew that they were the only ones whom she could trust upon. Break upon cause she knew they were there to pick her up. Always. They both wiped her tears and pulled her cheeks slightly to which she chuckled softly. "No more tears. Just happy days." Bebe said while taking out her little finger. "Pinky promise Avni?" She asked in a childish manner. Avni didn't say anything. Even she took her hand out with the help of Prakash and they both locked their fingers. All started to laugh softly.
Avni was happy. Her family was broken. Small. But still hers. The size didn't matter to her. It was just too perfect for her. So what if Ayesha ma and Ashish and Grandma is not there? I have them. Dad just fills his place more perfectly. Bebe she is the best in the world. I just miss Ma. But I saw her. She thought and then remembered her moment with Ayesha. She finally spoke as she wanted to let someone know. "Before getting..buried," She paused to breathe and then continued "I saw ma. Ayesha ma. She was telling I'd meet him. Ashish Mehta. It's not tr..true. He d..died." She looked at them. Prakash and Bebe were exchanging nervous glances. They both then looked at her with an unrecognisable expression. "Yes bacha. Take rest now. Hm?" Prakash said while kissing her forehead while Bebe did the same after him. They both went out to Ashish and said
"She thinks you're dead. Better stay away from her." Prakash said while acquiring a defensive mode.
