Virat was confused about what was happening exactly. Anushka was in tears and seeing her in that condition, his heart broke. Anshul, on the other hand looked angry.
"Anshu-" Before Virat could greet Anshul and ask him about what was happening, Anshul gestured Virat with his hand to stop. He won't admit but it did hurt him seeing Anshul still being angry upon him. It was their family feud involving only their parents. Anshul, Anushka and their twin siblings or Virat and Daksh had nothing to do with it. Anshul was nine years old and Virat was twelve years old when that ugly fight happened. Like as Virat and Anshul, Daksh and Anushka used to be the best of friends. Their friendship ended only after that fight.
Giya looked at Virat and mouthed a 'sorry' to him. Virat smiled weakly at her. He didn't understand why Giya was saying sorry. It wasn't her fault. If anybody, it was him and Anshul who needed to sort things out.
Virat was so lost in his own thoughts that he completely forgot about Anushka who was a crying mess by now. It was only when she ran past him, out of the restaurant, towards the road that he came out of his thoughts and followed Anushka with Anshul and Giya doing the same behind him.
However, it was already too late for them. By the time the three of them reached, Anushka was already on the middle of the road. Virat was about to go near Anushka, when in a flash of a second, a speeding car came and collided with Anushka right before his eyes. Anushka let out a heart-wrenching cry before being thrown away from the road due to the utmost pain that she felt because of the impact. Giya who was just behind Virat cried loudly and ran towards Anushka. Anshul and Virat didn't waste any time either and ran towards Anushka.
"Nush.. Nush.. Nothing will happen to you. Please keep your eyes open Nush. Giya is calling the ambulance. Don't lose your consciousness till then Nush, please." Anshul kneeled down near his sister and frantically shook her body. Blood was oozing out from her body.
"Anushka I am your boss. Please listen to me. Stay with us." It was Virat who said, actually more like ordered to Anushka this time. He wasn't crying because he knew that everybody needed him know. Yet, it didn't mean that he was not sad. Only his heart knew how much did he want to cry seeing Anushka like that.
"Nush-" Anshul couldn't complete what he was saying as he saw Anushka closing her eyes. He felt his heartbeat stop seeing his sister lying like a lifeless body in his arms.
Giya didn't waste any time and called 911. The ambulance reached the spot within 5 minutes. The paramedics immediately took Anushka inside the ambulance accompanied by Anshul and rushed to the nearest hospital. Virat and Giya followed them in the car.
As soon as they reached the hospital, the paramedics took Anushka inside the intensive care unit. Siddharth and Hridaan were already waiting for them with the doctor as Virat had informed them about the accident beforehand.
Anshul, Virat and Giya were not allowed to go inside the intensive care unit as there were other patients too. Giya made Anshul to sit on the chair that was there near the ICU. He was literally shaking in fear. Tears were pouring down his eyes continuously. Anshul thought that it was all his fault. If he wouldn't have been angry on Anushka, she wouldn't have ran away, thereby giving no chance for the accident to happen. He looked at Virat who was sitting on the chair opposite to him with his face rested on his hands. He looked equally distraught. For a second Anshul thought that Virat might be in love with Anushka, but then quickly dismissed the idea while reprimanding himself for even letting that thought to come into his mind.
Just like Anshul, Virat was also blaming himself for Anushka's condition. He thought that if he wouldn't have come to her life, Anshul wouldn't have been angry with her, thereby giving no scope for any fight to happen in between them. The tears that he was trying to control all this while, poured down his eyes. Hridaan and Siddarth tried to console Virat but it was of no use. He shivered thinking about the pain that his Anushka might be in now.
