In 'Mussorie City Hospital'

A family(husband,wife and their teenager son) rushed into a doctor's cabin with concussion.The name plate could be seen on the door,Dr.Arun Mehta , Neurologist.

Dr.Arun;a man in his mid-thirties was sitting on his chair and studying a file of a patient's case.Seeing the family entering into his cabin,he got up.

"Doctor,How is my daughter?"Mr.Avinash Mathur asked to the doctor.

"You said on the phone that she r-regained her conscious.Is that t-true?Did she r-really wake up?"Mrs.Suman Mathur asked .Her teary eyes were mixed with hope and uncertainty.

"Yes,Mrs.Mathur.That's true.Your daughter has regained her conscious.She has come out of the coma."Dr.Arun reassured them with a smile .

As their doubts got cleared,they beamed with happiness.

"Doctor,Can we meet her?"the young boy asked, beaming with excitement.

"Yeah,sure.You all can."Dr.Arun gave a nod with another smile.

"Thank you, doctor."they said and then followed Dr.Arun.

They entered into a room where a girl in her early twenties lying on hospital bed and looking out the window.A calmness was visible on her  beautiful, feminine yet pale face.

Their eyes teared up at the sight of the girl.

Seeing her lying on bed wasn't first time for them.Seeing her conscious  was the thing that they were seeing for the first time.This was the moment they were waiting for the past one year and has finally come.

"Saanjh!"Mrs. Mathur called the girl's name.

The girl slowly turned her head towards them and smiled their way.

"Mom... Dad...Tarun!"her voice was just a whisper.

Suman ran to her and pulled her into her arms.

"I'm so glad to finally see your eyes open,dear.We were yearning so much for this moment." Suman said as she broke the hug and  sat on the edge of the bed,taking her daughter hands into her.Tears of happiness streaming down her face.

"Without you, our life had come to a standstill.We had lost all the hopes of getting you back.But God has listened to our prayers.You're finally back to us."Mr.Mathur said, caressing her head caringly and lovingly.

Saanjh smiled delightly at her parents and then looked at her brother who was shedding tears,standing at the foot of the bed.

"Stop,Tarun.How much will you cry?You're crying as if I'm dead."Saanjh laughed.

"Sis,Please don't talk about dying.I hate this word more than anything."Tarun grouched,wiping his tears.

"Okay,I won't say it again.But you stop crying please."She requested.

"These are happy tears,Sis.I am happy that you're back to us .I missed you so much."Tarun said as he stepped forward and hugged her tightly.Saanjh let out a soft chuckle and hugged him back.

When they broke the hug ,Saanjh studied his feature for a moment.

"You look so tall,Tarun."She said as a flicker of amusement crossed her face."So much growth in just one year!...Impressive!"

"That's the result of eating green vegetables and drinking milk everyday.If you'd listened to Mom then you wouldn't be such a tiny and weak girl."He teased .

"Hey,Who is tiny here? I'm 5'3" . That's not short, okay?"Saanjh retorted.

Tarun stuck out his tongue at her and She stressed her hand to gave a smack on his shoulder but the next moment,she winced at the pain that shot down from her shoulder along her arm.
