Hold on, i still need you

Are you one call away?

Drishti had been checking her phone every hour but not to her surprise there weren't many updates. But what kept her from marching down to Divya's office was Shikar.

She trusted him. if there was something to be worried about, he would have called her.

So to distract herself, she did some paperwork.

Suddenly, "tu kich meri photo" song started to play. Everyone in the office looked around for the source of noise and so did she. But then she felt a vibration from her back pocket,and realised it was her phone that ringing.

"This divi, phir se meri ringtone badaldi! choron gi nahi isee ajj toh". She grumbled as she picked up the call and went to a quieter corner of the office to avoid the strange looks she was getting.

"Shikar! Divya kaha hai?! Ajj toh mai usse chodon gi nahi! Bata na kaha...".

"Di app phela meri baat to sun lo. Jangli billi ki halat bohot karab hai. Usse headache...". The call had ended before he could even complete his sentence. He chuckled at the bond of this sisters. "Pal main gussa, pal mein pyar. Whahh kiya rishta hai" he thought to himself and went back to divya.

Drishti had heard enough. Her divi, her baby sister divi, was in bad condition. she needed her Di. no one could stop her from getting to her. Well except for her boss.

She raced back to her desk, dumped all her things into her bag, marched off into Raskhit's office and walked in without knocking.

Having heard heavy footsteps, Rakshit looked up and gave a look of annoyance but stopped looking at Drishti's tensed face. "Miss Sharma is everything...?".

"My sister is sick and I need to go and take care of her. I m taking the rest of the day and tomorrow off," she said in one breath interrupting him.

Rakshit knew what it was like having a sibling. He would have been worried sick if anything had happened to Rashi or Shikar. So he just nodded in affirmation and gave her a small smile.

Drishti smiled back and rushed out of the office and into her car. And set off towards Divya's office

---DIVYADRISHTI---

After Drishti hung up the call, shikar made his way back to Divya. He found her sleeping peacefully. "She looks so cute when sleeping.", he thought to himself.

Divya in her sleep, turned to her right was about to fall off the sofa but shikar caught her but the sudden jerk woke her up. She took a few seconds to grasp her surroundings before silently thanking shikar. 

Everything was still hurting and all she wanted right now was her di. Her hugs, cuddles, snuggles and most importantly her warmth. Tears found their way onto her cheeks as she stared at the floor. 

Without her, she felt cold.

Shikar didn't really know what to do, so he just wrapped his arms around her as she cried. They sat in that position until Drishti arrived.

"Divi?", she said gently as to not startle her sister. Divya looked up to see her and a fresh set of tears started falling. Shikar took this as his cue to leave and to give them some privacy.

Drishti cautiously approached Divya knowing that she was in a really vulnerable state right now. She knelt on the ground and held her hands. "Babu, kyu ro rahi ho?". Divya didn't say anything and instead threw herself into Drisht's arms and wept. She was warm again.

Drishti caressed her hair and soothed her. She could feel the heat coming from her sister and knew she had to get her home as soon as possible.

"Divi let's go home.", she said. She pulled away and got Divya to stand.

Divya swayed but Drishti steadied her. She grabbed Divya's stuff and walked out of the cabin with her leaning on her for support. Shikar saw them and went to assist Drishti. Together they got Divya in the passenger seat and put her seatbelt on.

"Take care buddy.". He whispered to Divya although she was already dozing off.

Once she was settled in, Drishti turned to shikar, "thanks shikar.".

He placed his hands on his chest and gasped."kya di. Apna toh paraya kar diya.".

"Arrey, assa kuch nahi hai mere bhai.".

"Yea i know. she is my buddy. it was my duty. anyways, You should get going before jangli billi starts attacking you.". They both laughed and Drishti bid goodbye to shikar and drove off. He watched them leave and went back to work

In the car, Divya was dozed in the passenger seat while Drishti was nervously biting her nails. When Divya left this morning she wasn't so bad and now she looked so pale and was burning up. She could only hope that everything would be fine.
