PART 35

She tries to slowly get up but is really weak. Not only does she still have really high fever but her pulse is way to fast. She is dizzy. She slowly gets up and Angad turns around and straight yells a her. He goes, what the hell do you think you are doing missy. Lie back down. He comes over to the bed and places his hands on her shoulders and makes her comfortable. She looks at Angad and says, I think we should go back to Bombay. I think I need to talk to Karan.

Angad looks at her and with a smile says, don't worry I have already talked to him. We are going to be leaving in just a bit. I asked Manan to cancel all the remaining tours and events in India. We are gonna go directly to the hospital and see Karan. Kripa tried to smile but she was too weak to. She just closed her eyes and rested.

A short while later, Angad had packed all the stuff and said it is time for us to go. He picked up Kripa and held her while walking out. Kripa said, wait one minute. She slowly walked back and grabbed the little Ganesh that was sitting on the table. She placed it in Angad's hands and said okay now we can go. They both got in the lift and checked out of the hotel. Angad opened the door and put Kripa in. He tightly secured her with her seat belt and placed a blanket over her. She was really hot but at the same time shivering like crazy. He drove back to Bombay. The ride seemed like forever. He just wanted her to get the proper attention and care. In this meanwhile, Kripa had fallen asleep.

They reached the hospital and Karan met them outside. They had gotten a stretcher and taken Kripa in immediately. After examining Kripa, he came out and told Angad that they had no choice but to operate. If they didn't then it was possible that Kripa would have a heart failure. Angad was really worried, and said I guess we need to do whatever it takes. Karan tried to reassure Angad as much as he could, but in all honesty he was really scared. He had never performed such an operation but it was absolutely critical. He knew that Kripa's chances were slim but he had to make an attempt.

They prepped Kripa and the room for the surgery. Angad in the meanwhile was going nuts with fear. He thought to himself, for once I found someone I want and God is going to take her away from me. That just isn't fair. Angad called Dadi and said that he needed her. He figured that even though Kripa didn't want anyone to know, Dadi should.

Dadi arrived at the hospital and was shattered upon hearing all this. She was like why didn't anyone tell me all this. Why did you guys keep this a secret from me. She just hugged Angad. Both were crying. Then the red light outside the operation room went on. All they could really do was wait. They sat there in silence. Finally Angad couldn't take it anymore and said I will be right back.

He decided to get his life back. He went to the mandir. For the first time he went and asked for something from God. He walked up and just prayed. He asked for Kripa. After a while he went back to the hospital; he looked up to see Prithvi, Mishty, Harshini, and Manan all standing with Dadi. Dadi understood that Angad was shocked to see them, she said I called them. They have every right to be near her as you and I do.

Everyone just nodded at one another and acknowledged the whole situation. They all sat there in silence waiting for any news. You can see the worry in everyone eyes. Finally the light shut off and everyone got up. They waited impatiently for Karan to get out. Karan came out.
