IN LOVE EVERMORE

Broken

New Delhi

05:00pm

His heart never pounded at this rate. Even when he'd thought she was dead! Now when he knew she was very much alive, he had to confront her for faking her death, he had to share so many things with her.. about their daughter, he had to stay angry with her and wait for her consoles, he had to comfort her, he had to apologize to her, they had to do so many things together. How can she leave him the next moment he found her being alive after 7 LONG YEARS?

He was waiting outside the O.T. pacing to and fro in the corridor fearing for the worst to happen. He had always wished her coming back to him, but did he wish for this?

A voice- RAMAN! RAMAN!

He turned around in a not so happy way hearing the source of the voice wiping his face. The person held onto his arms and looked tensed looking at his blood stained white shirt.

Person- This? How did this happen Raman? Are you ok?

Raman(coming out of the hold forcefully)- JUST LEAVE ME! WHY HAVE YOU COME HERE?

Person- Raman, I saw the news in the T.V. and I came running here as I got the info from the airport that you're here. I'm concerned for you Raman. You've..

Raman- Ohh just shut up SHAGUN!

Didn't plan this character in the beginning, but my dramatic mind forced her entry! ;D ;D

Raman- I very well know you're just..

Shagun- Me what Raman?

Raman(closing his eyes tired and strokes his hair aside)- Ahmm.. Nothing.. Look I'm completely fine. This blood is of my co-passenger. I've just helped her!

Shagun- her?

Raman(looking here and there)- her what?

Shagun- You said her. That means..

Raman(trying to sound normal and scratching his head)- Arrey please yaar! Stop your interrogation. I'm already tired because of the flight and all that hijack thing and..

Shagun- and what ?

Raman- WILL YOU NEVER LEAVE ME ALONE?

He didn't feel she was the first person he needed to share about Ishita.

Doctor(from behind)- Mr.Raman?

He turned around swiftly.

Raman- Yes doctor. Is she fine? (he asked desperately)

Doctor- Yes, your wife is out of danger.

He folds his hands and looks high closing his eyes.

Raman(hugging her making her feel awkward)- thank you so much doctor. You've saved my life too!

Doctor(smiles)- It's my duty. Take care.

Raman- can I meet her?

Doctor- yeah but after 2 hours.

Raman- but doctor..

Doctor- I understand.. But it's not safe. She may get infected as the wound is fresh.

Raman(nods sadly)- ok yeah!

The doctor leaves stuffing her hands in her coat. Raman turns around with a beaming face with folded palms and finds SHAGUN(urgghhh) staring at him with a confused look.

Shagun- You've got a WIFE NOW? AND YOU DIDN'T MIND TELLING ME!!!

He needed a few moments for himself but she would never let that happen. She never lets anyone stay in peace. God why was she in his life?
