She enters the hospital and is guided to a big hall where all the hospital staff are seated according to their positions.She sat in her allotted place and observes everything.One of the doctors is the host for the event.

After a while,she comes outside to take a call when she sees a man searching something.He seems worried and uneasy.She sees that there is no one around and goes to him.

Preetha(holding him) : Uncle aap thik ho?

Man sees her and for a second he is surprised.But his condition worsens and starts breathing heavily. She understands that he needs a nebulizer.He is not in a position to take it himself so she take him to a room and gives him.After a while,he recovers and sees her with a smile in his heart.

Preetha(concerned): Uncle ab aap theek ho?

Man: mein theek hu.Thank you beta

Preetha(lightened): isme thank you kyun uncle.Mera farz hai ....wait I will bring you water.

She goes and brings him water.He sees her lovingly.

Preetha: good ....if you dont mind.mein ek baath puchu

Man: haa beta

Preetha: aapke paas inhaler kyun nahi hai?

Man(sighing): hainaa.....ghar mein.actually ghar mein sab log bathathe hai ki inhaler leke jaao leke jaao....but i don't like it.thum hi bathao mein kaise rakhthi.....sab ke saamne kaise lagtha hai.Isiliye mein nahi carry kartha.

Preetha(understands): so thats your problem.......aap ek bath batao agar mein nahi agaya tho kya hojatha?

Man just looks at her.He knows what would have happened.

Preetha: aapko patha hai kya hojatha hai........zindagi khud keliye apnon keliye jeena hai uncle.yeh sab (showing nebulizer)mushkil hotha hai kabhi kabhi .So please always keep an inhaler with you.aap bahar logon keliye nahi andar logon keliye appki dil ki logon keliye rakha karo.

Preetha goes to the hall.

Host: Ladies and Gentlemen put your hands together for our Chairman of Hrudaya....... Mr. Vikram Rathore.
