Next Day,

Naina was getting ready in her room, while Preeti came in rushing ;

Preeti : Sunn, ek urgent case cover karne jaana hai, abhi call aaya News Agency se, pata nahi kisi bacchi ka accident hua hai.. Mai nikalti hu.. Tu  nashta karke hee jana thik hai!

Naina: Ok mumma!!

Both giggled and Preeti left for work.
While Naina's phone rang:

Swati: Hello, Naina, jaldii hospital pahuchh

Swati: Hello, Naina, jaldii hospital pahuchh.. Emergency hai bht bdi.. Jaldi aaa

Naina: Par, Swatii.. Aree sunn toh..
Phone cut krdiya..
Nikalti hu yaar, shayad Sach me urgent hai bht..

She rushed to the hospital..
But what she saw, broke her completely!!
The girl who was admitted in the emergency ward was none other than Suman.
While Sameer was sitting lifeless with blood stained clothes!!
Without wasting a second, she headed towards the ward to know Suman's condition.
She checked her well, and came out to confront Sameer.

Sameer: Dr.. Dr. Naina... Meri bacchi.. Meri Suman.. Thik hai na Wo..!?.. Meri bacchi.. vo.. Use.. Use kuch hua toh nahi na?

He said with utmost expectant eyes, but Naina was not in a condition to respond.. She was herself soo broken that she feared his breakdown too..
Sameer shaked her, being extremely needy for an answer!

Naina: Mr. Maheshwari.. I don't know.. Apko kya kese batau parr.. Par Suman.. Use severe head injury hai.. Khoon bhi bht baha hai.. We need to shift her to the OT.. The surgery is extremely crucial.. Hum kuch guarantee nahi kar sakte hain

She said it all in one breath.. But it broke Sameer to the core.. His tears were unstoppable, while he cursed himself for everything!!
Both of them drowned in tears, while they pulled each other into a bone crushing hug..
Naina rubbed his back to calm him,
But when they realised what they were doing, they held themselves back, while Swati came out running handing over a file to Sameer;

Swati : Sir aapki beti ki condition bigadti jaa rahi hai, please Hume surgery ki permission dijiye taaki hum use OT mein shift kar sakein, please sir, sign kijiye yahaan..

Sameer looked towards Naina, while she assured him through her eyes,
Sameer grabbed the file and signed the papers quickly ;
While Naina gave him a final look, and left for the OT.

But soon, she came back running to him;

Naina : Sameer, aapko bhi hmare saath chalna hoga, Suman ko blood ki zarurat hai, uski maa ke baare mein toh mai nahi jaanti, par aap uske pita hain, aapko hee donor banna hoga! Please chaliye..

These words made him numb, while Naina kept blabbering..
He looked directly into her eyes and said

Sameer: Dr. Naina, mai blood donation nahi kar sakta, that's it!
Aap blood Bank se blood arrange karwaiye, mai pay karne ke liye taiyaar hoon.

Naina: Par, Sameer..

Sameer: Arrange for A (+ve) blood soon, please Dr. My daughter needs you, I guess you should leave.

His sterness triggered her, but she kept calm, because Suman's surgery was more important.

She did as he said, arranged for the blood from the hospital's blood bank, and headed for the surgery.

After two hours:

The red light turned green, while Dr. Naina stepped out with a calm expression, much to Sameer's relief, as he went directly to her to confirm about his little kiddo.

Naina: Congratulations Mr. Maheshwari, the surgery went as expected, and she'll be conscious within 6 hours, but..

Sameer: But..? But what?

Naina: Can we please be seated in my cabin and then discuss further?

Sameer: Sure.

Inside the cabin>>

Naina: It is nothing to worry as such, but I want to know, if she has suffered any severe injuries in the past, or maybe during her mother's pregnancy? Because the way her injury appears, there may be past complications too, it is important for us to know.

Sameer: Her mother was 8 months pregnant, when her parents, I mean.. Me and her mother met with an accident, she had got hurt during that phase, and was delivered on the same day, because of various complications, she is a premature baby.

Naina : Thankyou so much Mr. Maheshwari, this will help a lot!

Sameer: Anything for her.

Naina : Ohh, if that is the case, why did you refuse blood donation?

She raised a brow at him, while chills ran down his spine due to the question mark put on him.

Sameer: Naina, I respect you a lot, but you should respect someone's privacy too! The information you needed has been provided, I hope I'll not have to come back to you on this, thank you.

Saying this, he left the cabin, closing the door with a bang. Naina sat awestruck with what all she just heard. But she wasn't any lesser, if she has decided to untangle this story, she will!

Naina's Voice over

Jitna bhi try karna hai, karlijiye aap, par pata toh mai laga ke hee rahungi!

She smirked on herself, and went back to check on Suman.

The sun had set, and it was growing darker with each passing second. Sameer was getting restless because Suman wasn't conscious till then. He was  going to Swati again and again, enquiring about her condition. Naina was done with the other patients, so she came back to them to check Suman's consciousness.
Her eyes became moist when she saw Sameer taking care of her and caressing her hair, while she got some flashbacks of her own life, and her heart skipped a beat. Due to the sudden rush in her mind, she felt dizzy and held the nearby chair to support her frame. She quickly grabbed a glass of water, gulped it down, and started heading towards the terrace, to have some personal space.
Sameer saw her going, and never realised that he started moving behind her. They reached up the terrace, while Naina realised someone's presence and turned back to find him.
He came closer, while her heart skipped a beat. They embraced each other into a warm hug, letting go all the tears that were put to hold since long.

Naina: Thoda bhi nahi badle na tum. Ab bhi utna hee gussa aata hai!

She said against his chest, while he smiled amidst the sobs.

Sameer: Tum bht badal gayi na jese. Kitni shakki ho abhi bhi!! Dr. Naina!

Naina : Haan toh tum bhi Kam nahi ho, Mr. Industrialist Kudkud Kumar!!

They shared a laugh and and separated themselves.

Sameer: Dekho, waha chair rakhi hai, waha Chalke Bethte hain.. Thak gyi hogi tum bhi.

Naina hummed, and they settled down on the chair, for some more discussions.
