Sidharth, baaz, Ahana and Kushal stood their in the room, waiting impatiently for Shehnaaz to wake up.
Upon their insistence, the doctor allowed the four of them to stay in the room together, when she wakes.
Shehnaaz woke up after what seemed like 15 minutes. The four of them smiled at her, and they expected her to smile seeing them as well.
But she looked at them all scared, Shehnaaz looked like she was looking at strangers. It seemed that she didn't recognise them.
Their smiles faltered the moment they saw her looking at them like that.
"Shehnaaz!", Kushal tried to say because the other three seemed too shocked to see Shehnaaz's strange expressions.
She looked at Kushal and then she started breathing heavily.
The machine that had been connected to monitor her heart beats, started beating loudly, indicating an increase in the heart beats.
Ahana immediately called the nurse and the doctor. The doctor entered hurriedly and asked all the four of them to go outside the room.
Kushal practically had to drag baaz and Sidharth outside the room because they just stood their frozen by everything that had been happening.
Did Shehnaaz not recognise them? Was she scared of them? Why was she scared?
The doctor injected her with something and she calmed down. Sidharth and Baaz stood their looking at her anxious condition.
Doctor Mathur came outside to tell them what was wrong with Shehnaaz.
"Shehnaaz just had a panic attack!", the doctor spoke.
Sidharth had never seen her having an episode and even Baaz had never seen his sister acting like this. She has had never experienced one of those.
"Usne Humein pehchaana nhi!", Sidharth told the doctor, actually asked them.
"Actually Sidharth she had been traumatised. She recognises you fully but she is just scared!", the doctor told Sidharth and baaz.
"Toh what should we do? How do we make her open up to us?", Ahana asked.
"I will send a therapist for her in an hour, till then let her rest!", Doctor Mathur told them and the four of them noticed.
Sidharth stood outside the room looking at Shehnaaz who laid still on the bed with her eyes shut.
Sidharth made his way inside the room and hesitantly sat on the same stool nearby her bed.
He didn't want to scare her away again. He didn't know whether she would have another episode if she sees him.
Shehnaaz opened her eyes and this time Sidharth got scared. He hurriedly stood up from the stool and turned around to go.
Sidharth couldn't move because Shehnaaz stopped him. She didn't say anything.
Shehnaaz just slid her right hand in his left one and looked up at him. Sidharth turned around and saw Shehnaaz looking upto him.
For the first time since she had been found, he saw vulnerability in her eyes. She was revealing herself to him, she was opening up to him.
Sidharth felt his heart break into million pieces as he saw her looking at him like a little scared girl.
He wanted to tell her that he is here with her and she would be okay.
He wanted to tell her that he won't let anything happen to her, but how could he tell her that when she was kidnapped right under his nose.
Sidharth was about to sit on the stool but stopped when Shehnaaz shifted a bit on her bed to make space for him.
