Deepu's POV:

I reached home @5:30 AM. Despite of me insisting Vijay to stay at my place & get some sleep , he refused it & left.

It's nearly 6:30Am , still I didn't get any info of him reaching his home safe.

I was worried. We both had no sleep last night. Though I know he is used to sleepless nights as a part of his acting career, I was feeling restless. Bcz in a span of a seconds accidents may happen. On top of it , he had no sleep last night.

I even asked him to call his driver, but no.. he was like I can Drive myself.

I even said to call/ msg me once he reached home safe. But I received none. It takes hardly 45mins to reach his home from my place.

I started to become more restless. I messaged him but no reply. My fear raised to peaks.

I called him ,but no reply.. Oh God!! Plz nothing should happen to vijay I thought.

I called him one more time holding my heart in my hand.

'Damnit answer the call vijay' I cursed under my breath.

" Hello.." came his sleepy voice from other side.

I sighed in relief hearing his voice.

" U idiot.. I told u to inform me when u reached home. Why didn't u called?
I was so worried. R u okay? " I asked.

" Chill babes... It skipped my mind after seeing my bed. So I slept " He replied in his sleepy voice.

" Shut up... I got scared. All deadly possibilities came into my mind for a second " I scolded him.

" Doc... Why r u soo tensed for this little thing ? " He asked irritated.

I remained silent..

" Ok bye.... I need to get some sleep " He said & disconnected the call.

Though I was angry , I got relieved knowing he is safe.

I thought to get some sleep before going for my daily mrng routine. But no ,my plans of getting sleep got shattered.

Now I am rushing to hospital, as I got a call from hospital indicating some kind of emergency.

Being a doctor can be stressful sometimes. U don't get time to eat & sleep. Sometimes u don't even get time to pee..😉😉. Haha just kidding.

But I enjoy all these 'hustle bustle' in hospitals.

All ur stress vanishes seeing patient's relatives holding their hands infront of u, thanking u for saving their loved ones life.

Being Doctor is such a noble profession. After God, we Drs are the ppl who get equal respect from people.

I agree that there are incidents where doctors are being attacked & hit by patient relatives. I can understand the pain of losing someone close to you. That's the reason we forgot all those incidents & treat the patients as usual.

According to Hippocratic oath, treating patients is our main responsibility no matter what.

Finally I reached home @ 7:00pm. I skipped my breakfast as well as lunch.
I am dead tired & hungry. I don't even have any energy left. I slumped onto my bed 🛌

But my stomach started growling & I was unable to sleep. Unwillingly I left my bed , made my way to kitchen.

I don't have energy to cook, so I grabbed some fruits from my fridge & ate it.

Even rotten food seems tasty when u r hungry. That's what I am feeling right now.

Those tasteless fruits in my mouth felt like biryani right now..😄😄

Now I slept like a kumbakaran...😴😴
