She was lost deep in her thoughts that
she couldn't hear the beeps of her pager
buzzing on the table in front of her.
After a few minutes she got startled by
the loud beeps of intercom machine
playing on the table. She came out of her
trance.
"Dr.Murthy you are needed in the OT..
It's an emergency..."
"Yes I'm on my way..." She answered.
And got up from her chair grabbing her
pager and her stethoscope she came out
of her cabin and started walking fast to
the OT.
It was her night duty today after a very
busy and hectic day... But Dr. Aryaman
needs to go for a personal emergency so
he asked her a favor to take his shift.
She being the helping nature without
thinking about her health or her well
being said ok to him and stayed for the
night duty.
In the elevator going down she met Dr.
Abhimanyu. The ever chirpy and always
in a good mood Dr Abhimanyu who try's
to make her smile all the time.
"So baby doll what's upp... Any plans for
valentines..." He asked in a cheerful
mood.
"Asusual... I'll spend all day with my
babies..." She answered casually.
"What... Really... You are doing night
duty and than you'll spend the day with
your babies... How will you manage...
You'll ruin your health... You need
rest..." He goes concerned by her helping
nature attitude.
"But they need me... As much I need
them... I can't just ignore them...you
know..."
"But it's valentine you should spend most
of your time with your loved ones..." He
went into a dreamland..
"I think that... Sab pyaar Karne waale ek
ho jaane chaiye... And they should live
together always... I don't like sad love
stories..." He was just blabbering in
front of her.
She thought
'Not everyone can be together... Har koi
itna khush kismet nahi hota...' To
herself
"I pray ki sab pyaar Karne waale mil
jaaye... And hamesha saath rahe..." He
prayed unknowingly for all the lovers.
And the elevator door opens and
somewhere in the corridors the clock
strikes 12.
"What are the vitals..." As soon as
Nandini entered the changing room she
asked to the attending staff.
"Three bullet shots... Two still in the
body... BP going down... Immense loss
of blood... "The attending doctor gave
her the brief.
They were in front of the OT washing
their hands and putting on the gloves
and their gowns on with the help of
nurses.
She turned and saw someone entering
the OT
"Dr. Kumar... You... Koi heart patient hai
Kya..." Nandini asked the man who is in
his 50's.
"I don't know... They called and informed
me that... The bullet hit and passed the
heart... Koi celebrity hai and a
cardiologist is also needed..." Dr Kumar
explained while changing into the gown.
Dr kumar is one such Doctor who works
more for the money than for human
lives.
But he is an excellent cardio surgeon.
"So guys ready to save one more life...
Hopefully..." He asked both the Doctors.
"Yes..." They both said together but
Nandini was always nervous when she
entered the OT. She can't see any one
fighting with life and death.
She is a very soft hearted person.
And today she has this odd feeling in her
heart which is very difficult to describe
in words...
All the doctors entered the OT and
Nandini is the last one. There's a person
lying on the operation bed with oxygen
mask and IV given to him. ECG wires
were stick to him around his chest and
the wound has been cleared so thet the
body part where the surgery has to be
held can be seen clearly.
As soon as Nandini came by the patients
right side she was frozen. It feels like
The floor underneath her feet has been
slipped away. The world came to a stand
still.
She couldn't budge from her place and
was just staring at the person lying in
front of her.
"Dr. Murthy... Where are you lost... we
need to start ASAP... Patient has already
lost lots of blood..." Dr. Kumar said from
the opposite side..
She was not with them at the moment.
Her past flashed in front of her eyes like
a count down show.
Eight years of her life just flickering in
front of her,eyes.
"Dr. Khattar you take over... We need to
take out the bullets... Otherwise it can
spread poison... You start the surgery I'll
keep the heart in stable position..." Dr
kumar said again.
"Nandini are you ok..." Dr. Abhimanyu
whispered going close to her and asked
giving her a push.
She came out of her thoughts and looked
at Abhimanyu.
"Haan..." She just said.
"We need to start... " Abhi told her
again.
She stood there without blinking her eyes
and watch Abhimanyu do all the work
and act as a attending staff instead of a
successful Doctor.
Abhimanyu took out the bullet close to
the heart and another from the shoulder
and the part where the bullet has just
passed hitting the shoulder has been
stitched.
Dr. Kumar makes sure that no damaged
has been done to the heart as the bullet
has just hit the outer layer of the heart.
They packed up the body by giving
appropriate stitches. And the surgery
was successful.
"As the patient has lost lot of blood...
We still need to keep him under
observation for twenty four hours... And
he should gain conscious in eight to ten
hours... Otherwise he can slip into
coma..." Dr kumar said when they came
out of the OT.
Nandini didn't came out of the OT yet.
She was just watching him constantly
with emptiness in her eyes. She just
couldn't take her eyes off of him.
It's been eight years since she saw him.
She never thought of meeting him like
this.
He was lying there unconscious wrapped
up in bandages all over his chest and his
shoulders. As soon as the reality hits her
a whisper came out from her mouth.
"Manik..." And tears started flowing like
a spring water from her eyes.
She unknowingly bend down and gave a
kiss on his head.
Some of Her tear drops fell on his
forehead and cheek which didn't effect
him at all because right now he can't feel
anything.
He didn't know that he came to his
destination which he was searching for
since last eight years.
Sometimes a pray can be heard coming
out from anybody's mouth.

Intentionally or unintentionally Dr. Abhimanyu prayed
for the lovers to meet and be together
happily and that has been listened by
some ultimate power and they make two
long lost lovers meet in an odd and
unexpected situation.

lovers has been separated
