he has known our little princess for a long time.’ Vibha said while walking.

 

‘Hmm… It seems so. Better ask our princess, what do you think?’ Uncle asked, smiling.

Vibha smiled and they continued towards Shreshtha’s ward.

 

Chapter 15

 

Ishaan and Aarav stood in silence for a couple of minutes. Then, suddenly Aarav snapped out of the trance and turned towards Ishaan. He turned back again and breathed heavily before going towards the door. Ishaan also accompanied him. Now all they needed was prayers and a hope that the plan will work.

 

They sprinted towards the direction where Shreshtha’s parents headed, and caught up with them a couple of minutes later. This looked like a team for a mission, for a cause. The cause was to get Shreshtha out of her coma and see her smiling again.

 

All four of them came to a halt in front of the ward where Shreshtha was, and looked at each other. There was hope, prayers and uncertainty in all the four pairs of eyes. Each one of them smiled, and entered the ward with a prayer in their heart.

 

No matter how strong Shreshtha’s parents thought they were, the moment they saw her lying in the hospital bed, pale and covered in needles; their hearts cried out for their little daughter. She deserved to be by their side, not in the sickly hospital bed.

Aarav could not gather the courage to meet her parents’ eyes, and he chose to look down to the floor to avoid more shame and despair. He could not see Shreshtha like this, and the sight would make him weaker than he already was feeling. No matter how strongly he wanted to be away from her, she was still his only best friend and he did love her.

Ishaan was the most hopeful of all, because he had medical science by his side. But the sight made him weak in the knees, he wanted to sit down and shout, to let Shreshtha and the world know that how desperately he is waiting for her to be all right again. He wanted to see the one smile for which he had dreamt for so long, to look into the eyes of the girl he loved.

“Love”, Ishaan’s heart did a flutter and a flip flop at the mention of this word. Yes, he loves her. And she has to come to life for him. Ishaan felt determined and looked at Shreshtha’s parents and nodded for them to move forward. The plan has to work.

 

 

Shreshtha’s mother could not hold it any longer and she started sobbing. She ran to her daughter, and sat on the side of the bed.

“How did this happen to the most precious one of my life?” Vibha cried in agony. “Shreshtha, baby, please wake up. I can’t see you like this. You were so strong, what has happened to you now?”

She touched her daughter’s face and held her hands. Her body was so pale that she looked like a bloodless human. Vibha could not stop crying as she saw her daughter in so much pain and trouble.

 

Shreshtha’s father, Shreyas, too came forward and tentatively sat on the other side of the bed. His eyes were moist, and words would not come out of his mouth. His strong little girl looked so helpless right now. He knew his daughter was a warrior, a fighter and she would come back soon to them, smiling and dancing in joy like she always would. He touched her forehead gently and prayed for her.

 

Aarav and Ishaan were both speechless and were waiting for the moment of miracle. Ishaan gently put a hand on Aarav’s shoulder to let him know that all is okay. Aarav, in turn, could only smile.

 

Vibha was still crying and trying to talk but the emotions were so choked up in her hearth that she could not say a word but cry. Suddenly, after what seemed like an eternity, the monitor started beeping loudly. There was an indication that the patient was trying to make some movements, or their mind was. Everyone in the room gasped, and Shreshtha’s parents shot a worried glance at Dr. Ishaan. Ishaan swiftly moved towards the bed and looked at the monitor screen and nodded an approval to the other doctors in the room.

 

Shreshtha was responding to her mother’s voice, and sure enough she wanted to wake up. Ishaan motioned to get the stethoscope and waited patiently as it arrived. He plugged it in his ears and examined Shreshtha, he checked her pulse and that was when he saw movement in her right hand. Ishaan’s joy knew no bounds, and he said happily, “She is reacting to your voice aunty. Please talk to her. She is reacting.”

 

Vibha cried in happiness, and everyone’s hands joined in prayers. Aarav was spellbound, and tears flowed from his eyes. His best friend was finally going to be all right.

 

Before the doctors could start more tests, Shreshtha fell silent again. The beeping dropped as well. It all happened in the blur of a moment, as it never happened.

 

“No, no no no no… you can’t be doing this to us Shreshtha. You can’t cheat us like this. You have to try harder and have to get up. Come on!” Ishaan said in anger.

 

“What’s wrong son? What happened?” Mr Shreyas asked, confused.

 

“She was responding, now she is not. This is our last chance, if she doesn’t get up now, she won’t get up ever. This was the strongest emotion I felt since she came in here. She has to wake up.” Ishaan was not sure what he would do now.

 

“Dr Ishaan, would you mind if I talk to you for a moment?”

 

Ishaan turned and saw his friend, Rohan standing there with a serious look on his face. He silently followed him, and they came out of the ward and Rohan grabbed Ishaan’s shoulders and shook him hard.

 

“What do you think you are doing Ishaan? Have you forgotten that you are a doctor, not an emotional fool to behave that way? How could you not think of another alternative? Why are you acting so dumb like someone in love?” Rohan shouted angrily, because he indeed was angry at Ishaan’s behaviour. His friend was the best neurosurgeon in the country, and he was acting weird.

 

“I am acting dumb because I am in love, indeed. I love her. I can’t fail her. The plan is not working Rohan.” Ishaan said with a lump in his throat.

 

“Gosh someone help me! Ishaan, are you serious? I mean not the love, but the plan. You always have an alternative ready for cases like this, don’t you? Don’t tell me you thought none for this one.” Rohan said, surprised.

 

“Alternative”, Ishaan paused, “Yes, I always do, and I have one for this as well. God! I was so lost in all this, I completely forgot. Yes, there is a plan B.” Ishaan said and before explaining Rohan, he turned back in the ward. His eyes searched for Aarav and when he looked at him, he immediately motioned for him to go to Shreshtha and do what they had decided before her parents arrived.

 

Meanwhile, Ishaan got to Shreshtha’s parents and asked them to leave and wait out of the room. He also made all the staff leave and wanted the room to be clear with only him, Shreshtha and Aarav. He is not letting the girl play more games with him now; this has to come to an end.

 

Once everyone was out of the room, Ishaan motioned Aarav to speak. He will watch, and will be ready to help if required. He knew this would work; only this could work.

 

Aarav hesitantly stepped near Shreshtha, looked at her face and recalled all the memories he had with her. At first it all seemed so great, like this was the only thing he ever wanted. But off lately, all this love and affection seemed meaningless to him. It was true that he loved Shreshtha, and he was happy to have her in his life, but he felt as if he was losing his own identity in the process of being her boyfriend. He missed his best friend and wanted her back that way.

 

He had to be strong and tell her that. This will be a shock for her, because he knows how much she loved him, and how much has he hurt her. But, if this is the only way, he will do it.
