Beyond His Grey Eyes

CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE : PROMISES

ESHA'S POINT OF VIEW

Everything was coming back into vision. My head was hurting a lot. I could finally restore my vision. The first sight was a door. It looked more like a hospital door with blue curtains all around. I tried pulling my hand and noticed an IV drip. When I tried my other hand I find Aadhvik sleeping by leaning his head against my hand.

"Aadh-Aadhvik." I tried calling him with what I had left inside me.
It was very painful. Even knife stab would have felt better. My throat was completely dried like the rough desert of Rajasthan. I slowly removed my hand from his grip. Aadhvik didn't even realise that. I brushed his hair slowly. Still so smooth....that it made him fall more asleep.

But his sleep vanished when he didn't find my hand that he was holding onto. He woke up all of a sudden and looked at me. Ahh I couldn't brush his hair! Damn!

"Esha, your up! " He asked to conform that his eye sights are fine. Indeed it was! But that was a stupid question to ask. I would give a good reply for it but honestly I couldn't even part my lips a bit. So I just nodded my head with a small smile.

"I will go call Mr. Batra." he said placing a gentle kiss on my forehead.

God! Why the hell he is taking advantage of me being sick. And plus why is he going to call Batra because I woke up. Which person is him now?
What exactly happened to me. All I remember is my mom screaming my name and I remembered someone slapping me. My thoughts was cut short when everyone barged inside the room with a large bang on the door. First came Dua. She was too furious that I wouldn't be surprised if she kills me on the spot.

"What is wrong with you? Why can't you wake up. You idiot. Moron!" She kept yelling at me.

"Mr. Batra check if she is alright. Check if her body is fine enough to get plenty of slaps from me. Mr. Batra" she kept screaming. Ohh Mr. Batra is the doctor! I looked behind to find Mr. Batra standing with his hands crossed. Zayd and Aadhvik gave such a disgusting look to Dua. Dua actually got back to her senses and turned back.

Mr. Batra pointed towards the door of the room, "I have to first check her and for that you have to move." he said clamly. Dua faked a laugh and stood silently behind Zayd glaring at me. She gave me a death stare that I regretted waking up. Dying was better!

Doctor Batra checked my eye sight, and then glances onto the monitor I was hooked to check my vitals and finally made sure I was ok. Like honestly if he would have asked me how I felt I would have told him. He simply wasted his as well as my time in doing all these stuff.

"I will go call Inaaya." Ruhi takes her phone out and Dua follows her. My mom stood praying to all god's present on mother earth for my survival. My dad as simple as he is always just gave me a smile. I didn't even bother to look at Aadhvik at this point.

"Let Aadhvik first talk to her. We will leave." Doctor Batra said. I could see a clear disappointment on my mom's face.

"I will talk later." he said faking a smile. I knew he was angry. It was my mistake to walk like a stupid moron without looking at anything. God Esha look what your stupidness have led you into.

"Can I talk?" My mom asked.

"Yeah." Doctor Batra nodded his head and everyone else left.

My mom's one question brought all tears on my eyes, "Esha, do you love him?" I cannot waste this great opportunity that God has given me in life. I can never! Since I am sick if I tell a yes my mom can't yell at me also. Esha use this! I nodded my head so innocently pretending to be extra sick and tired.
