Mau

Ok so, I know this is completely out of the blue but I found out that someone had left a comment on my ishman fic a full year later yesterday and that gave me the motivation to finish it so... Here it is!
          
          A full year later and completely unedited, so please be kind!

Most days I think this country has progressed so much in terms of what they think women can and can't do, and then I have an interaction like the one I had today...
          
          I was peacefully sitting in the hospital canteen this morning drinking my coffee, trying to get my caffeine hit before I have to go to the wards, when this old lady comes up to me. She must be in her 70s.
          
          Keep in mind, I'm wearing a black tshirt and camo green cargo pants, and a white coat. Plus an ID card that clearly states that I'm a medical student.
          
          She takes one look at me and asks 'Sister, how do I get to the 3rd floor?'
          
          (By sister she meant nurse)
          
          I mean no disrespect to nurses, it's an extremely important job. 
          
          But how are we still living in a society where she sees a young woman in the hospital and assumes she's a nurse and can't be a doctor? 
          I'm 100% sure if I'd been a boy wearing the same clothes she would have called me doctor saheb.
          
          (The nurses - both male and female, and nursing students wear a uniform in our hospital, it's very distinctive and that lady must have seen atleast 5-10 of them on her way)

Bola tha rokna hai to qualify karne se pehele hi rok lo...

By the way u haven't updated in ages come on we are waiting 

I'm not even mad about MI losing the match because... Well because parampara pratishtha anushasan I guess XD
          
          I saw that Dhoni stumping and my mood was made for the rest of the week. That man was and always will be my hero ❤️
          
          And Ishan man... My god he's a firecracker. His comeback felt like everything good with the world was finally happening. I'm so proud of him ❤️

The beauty of cricket in our country I think, is the child it brings out in all of us.
          
          Yesterday, I had plans to sit at home and watch the match by myself. My dad might have joined in between, but otherwise it would have been just me.
          
          At 6 o' clock on the dot, right after the first innings, my friend calls me and tells me to get ready in 10 mins we're going somewhere. I was sceptical because she's not a big cricket fan and I tried to tell her that there's a match going on and I want to watch but she just said 'I know, that's why I called after the last over, just come down we're going somewhere.'
          
          15 minutes later I'm sitting on the back of her scooty and she's taking me to a screening, where 6 of our other friends are waiting. Half of them don't follow cricket at all, but they'd heard me talking about it so much they got interested.
          
          We watched the entirety of the second innings in a restaurant screaming, crying, cheering. I'd forgotten to eat, so they would pile food on my plate and remind me to take a bite.
          
          They held my hand when I would get tensed, asked me questions about what was happening when they didn't understand what was going on, and joined me when I started praying somewhere around the 42nd over. They danced on the street with me when we won.
          
          This. This is the beauty of cricket. The joy, the sadness, the camaraderie, this is what cricket means to India.
          
          And I will forever be grateful to the Indian cricket team for giving me this.
