Ayushmann's POV
The hospital staff kept walking past the long corridors, dressed in their white cloaks and somber expressions plastered on their faces as they walked away busily. The smell of antiseptic medicines didn't make me as nauseous as before and the silence of the hospital appeared somewhat peaceful in contrast to the cacophony and melancholy inside me.
Taking a deep breath, I told myself for the umpteenth time that she's gonna be fine. Everything will be alright. Things will work out somehow.
I leaned back and rested my head over the white wall behind me, crossing my arms on my chest and drumming my fingers in a rhythm, trying to keep my calm.
