Anokhi dosti apni - Maddam Sir

Zindagi..!

(I m so sorry!
As usual I am late, n now I am here with a very very short update...
Don't worry, next part will be uploaded by tonight.., but..., I m sorry to inform you that after that u will have to wait for few days....

    I m sure u all must be familiar with the scary beast called as journal completion...!!!
   Yes, I have got the due date for it, in this week...
Plzzz bear with the delay...)

  
   Main bhi chup ho jaaunga bujhti hui sham'on ke saath...

   Aur kuchh lamhey theher Ae zindagi! Ae zindagi!

   The jeep was echoing with HM's sobs and hiccups.

   Her tears were falling on KS's face, continuously.....!

HM: Sir plzzz...! Jaldi.....

      Anubhav Singh who was already almost flying the jeep, increased the pressure on accelerator...
  He wasn't in a state to reply..!
  
  His face was full of bands of tears n sweat!

   HM was crying, tapping KS's face, n sometimes peeping out in the dark, restlessly....

HM: Ya ALLAH! Plz... Humaari KS ko kuchh mat hone dena...
Plzz!

      She checked her pulse. It was  low n weak...

     She restlessly pulled her closer n cried badly, encaging her in her arms, as tightly as she could..., although knowing that even the tightest grip can't stop the soul from escaping the body...!
Death knows no barriers!!!

HM (in mind): Kaash...! Organs ki tarah, hum kuchh saansein, kuchh dhadkanein, kuchh lamhey bhi kisi ko de sakte....
  Kaashh!!

  She thought, kissing her head.

______________________________

   There was no significant change in the scene of the hospital corridor...
   The silence was sometimes interrupted by PJ's sobs, who was trying her best to suppress them...

      CC knelt down before her...

CC: PJ! Plz himmat rakhiye...

   She looked at him with teary eyes...

PJ: Cheete..! Kuchh...kuchh hona nahi chahiye usey...

    Endless fear was speaking in her choking voice....

CC: kuchh nahi hoga usey...

    He assured her, pushing inside his own haunting thoughts...

   PJ stayed silent...

" Kya hai na Pushpee! Main zindagi ki aankhon mein aankhein daal kar muskuraane ka qaayel hun...!"

      Veer's lively smile flashed in her mind....
    Her eyes started flooding out...

     How much he had been through!!
  How much he had endured!

Mother's death, Father's crimes, devastation of first love, n also dulaari's distrust about which, no one knew...

    He had suffered a lot, yet his bright eyes never gloomed...!
  His lively smile never seemed to be faded!!

     She gazed towards the ICU...

Ae zindagi!
Gale laga le...

Hum ne bhi to...
Tere har ek gham ko...
Gale se lagaya hai...,

Hai na...!!

  
PJ: cheete..!
      Zindagi se aankhein milaane waale se keh na, aankhein khole...
   Zindagi intezaar mein hai...!

CC quietly lowered his head...

      Doctor stepped out of the ICU. Billu hurried towards him...
PJ n CC didn't notice...

    Billu: Dr.saahab ! Ab kaesa hai Veer??!
   

   His voice grabbed their attention.
  Now all 3 of them were looking at the doctor, impatiently waiting for his response...
.

.

.

    He glanced at their pale faces, n then smiled...

Doctor: Congratulations!
  He is out of danger...

    All of them froze...!

And the next moment, an ear to ear smile bloomed on their faces...

PJ: kkyaaa...?!! Sachhh!!!
Wo....wo theek hai....

   She was the happiest...🥰

PJ: Cheete! Suna tum ne...
Wo theek hai....
  Cheete.., wo theek hai...!

CC: Haa! Haa PJ! Suna hum ne...
Mubarak ho!!

    CC was smiling cheerfully seeing her extreme happiness n excitement....!

PJ: Hum... Hum mil sakte hain usse Dr. saahab?

Doctor: Zaroor! Aaiyye...

   He led them to the ICU...

Veer was lying on the bed, sleeping under the influence of tranquilizers....

   PJ placed her hand on his head..., n tears of joy dropped down from her eyes...

" Veer!"
   She called out slowly...

Doctor: wo medications k influence me h...,
or humein kuchh din inhe analgesics or medications k under hi rakhna padega, otherwise, post surgical pain will be unbearable for him...
   Is beech wo shaayed hosh me aayein, but hardly few minutes ke liye...

    They were listening to the doctor, when Veer showed some movement...

    PJ bent on him excitedly...

PJ: Veer beta...!

    Veer opened his eyes slightly...

A sense of recognition shone in his eyes, which was replaced by hope the very next moment...!

   " Dulaari..."

   Escaped his lips...!
His voice was too low to be heard by anyone, other than PJ...

    PJ's smile faded...

  He kept looking at her with questioning eyes for few seconds, n then dozed off to sleep again...

Billu: kya kaha usne PJ ?

  PJ turned towards them...

PJ: Billu! Ms, km DSP sir, kisi ka koi phone nahi aaya ab tak...
   Sab theek to honge na...?
     Dulaari ko bacha to liya hoga na unhone ??!

  A strange kind of fear started haunting her...

Billu: arey aap kyun chinta kar rahi hain PJ!
  Bilkul theek honge sab...
  Ab tak to km wo Blaster brothers ko apna bhaukaal dikha rahi hongi...

CC: haa PJ! Aur wese b km ko to aap jaanti hain na...
    U jo thaan leti hain, wo kar ke hi chhodti hain..

   U to Jaan ki Baazi laga dengi Dulaari ko bachaane ke liye...!

   And sometimes, we say something, just casually, just in fluke..., n we never know..., if it's already coming to us...!!!

(I m eagerly waiting for your response...
   Sorry for short one, as I mentioned above...
Thanks 😊)
