Chapter 59

Inside the ward, Roli sat on the bed in silence. She was yet to come out of the shock she just received. After listening to everything Nidhi had told her about her past, she felt like she suddenly entered into a total different world which was unknown to her till now. 

Until the moment, roli was in the belief that she was alone and had no family. But, all of a sudden she got to know about her husband and her daughter. 

What felt more strange was, the person whom she used to view as a beast, turned out to be her husband who loves her dearly. 

"Roli, please don't take stress" Nidhi said with concern. 

"Why did you not tell me all these till now?" roli glanced at Nidhi and asked in a low voice. 

"You were not in the state to know all these. And siddhant bhaiya didn't want to let you take stress. So, we had to keep you away from all these. But, trust me Roli, we didn't intentionally hide the truth from you. Whatever we did, it was to keep you safe and sound" holding Roli's hand, Nidhi explained patiently. 

Roli didn't speak anything as she understood the situation. But, she was yet to accept the truth, mentally. 

Sid entered the room with Sakshi in his arms. Roli turned to them as she heard the door sound. 

Suddenly her mind went back to the time when Sid rushed to her as she lost her balance and held her in his arms. The pain in his eyes was still clear in her mind. 

"Are you fine, mumma?" Roli, who was watching Sid, got back to her senses after hearing a cute voice.

Roli looked at Sakshi as her heart was filled with mixed emotions. From the time she met Sakshi in the playschool, she felt an unknown connection with this little girl. And now she realised why she felt so. Cause the little girl was her own daughter, her own blood that made her to feel connected. 

Looking at Sakshi's cute face, roli nodded as 'yes'. Sid didn't speak and just watched his Roli. 

Soon the doctor entered the ward and checked on Roli's condition. 

"There are still a little bit of poisonous particles left in her system. We will be detoxifying it completely from the system. After that you can take her home tomorrow morning" doctor informed and gave the prescription before leaving the room.

"It's almost night now. You all may leave. I will stay here with Roli" Nidhi suggested after the doctor left. 

"No, Nidhi. You go home and take care of Sakshi. I'll stay here" Sid spoke, breaking his silence. 

"I will also stay with you, papa" Sakshi interrupted, circling her hands around Sid's neck as if she didn't want to leave her papa. 

"You said you want to welcome mumma, right. So, you will have to make preparations for that. Go home, sleep well and be ready tomorrow to welcome your mumma, okay" Sid explained to his daughter in a gentle tone. 

Roli, who was watching him, was stunned to witness the other side of Sid, which was completely opposite to how she had seen him before, to the extent she remembered. 

"Papa.." sakshi pouted, still not convinced to leave. 

"Please.." Sid patiently pleased his daughter. 

"Okay, papa. You've to take care of mumma and yourself too" Sakshi said, earnestly. 

"Haan.. dadi maa, I will take care" Sid smiled at how his daughter would always remind him of to take care whenever he was away from her. She was the replica of Roli in that aspect. 

Sunny came forward and took Sakshi from Sid as they prepared to leave. 

"No playing in the night" Sid said sternly, looking at sunny and Sakshi. They both looked at each other and giggled. 

"Don't worry bhaiya. I won't let them play" Nidhi assured to Sid. 

"Bye, mumma. Take care" Sakshi turned to roli and said. 

Roli slightly smiled at her little baby's concern. Then sunny with Sakshi and others left the hospital. 

Now only Roli and Sid were left in the room, which made roli little nervous. 

"How are you feeling now?" Sid suddenly asked, making roli froze. 

Roli watched him and replied slowly "I'm.. fine". 

"Don't stress yourself trying to think about anything. You don't need to remember anything now. Just take rest" Sid said with utmost concern. 

Sid knew roli needed time to accept the sudden changes. So, he didn't want to rush her to remember anything, worried that it might hurt her health. 

Roli didn't reply but, she felt so warm at his concern filled voice. 

At night, after taking medicine, roli laid down on the bed to sleep. 

"If you need anything call me" Sid said as he got settled on the couch at a little distance from the bed. 

Slightly nodding her head, roli closed her eyes to sleep. She thought she'd feel uncomfortable to sleep in one room with Sid, who was nearly a stranger for her as she still couldn't remember him. But, to her surprise, she felt so secured under his presence and slept without any fear. 

In the middle of the night, Roli felt thirsty. She sat up on bed but, there was no water near the bed. There was a bottle on the table near the couch. 

Roli glanced at Sid, who seemed to be in deep sleep. She wondered if she could wake him up. Then she slowly got down from bed to walk near the table. 

But, after taking two steps, roli started feeling dizzy due to the effect of medicine. 

When she was about to lose her balance, she felt the strong arms embracing her. 

"What are you doing, roli?" She looked up to find herself in between Sid's arms. 

"I've told you to call me if you need anything, right" Sid continued as he carefully held her and helped her to sit back in bed. 

Roli watched Sid in amusement. She was clearly surprised to see his caring side. And she didn't feel his touch unfamiliar. In fact, it felt like her heart was longing for his touch. 

"Do you want anything?" Sid's question made roli to come back to her senses. 

Roli looked away from him and answered "wa.. water". 

Sid went near the table, brought the water bottle and gave it to her. 

"Call me if you need anything else" Sid said placing the bottle near the bed after she drank. 

Due to the medicine effect, roli again fell asleep soon. While Sid sat in couch gazing at her. 

From now on his Roli would be staying near him. Sid felt so happy just by the thought itself. 

Next day morning, doctor examined roli and told she was fine. Sunny and Nidhi reached the hospital to take them back home.

Nidhi entered the room, while sid and sunny went to complete the discharging formalities. 

"Are you feeling better now?" Nidhi asked while roli nodded, sitting on the bed. 

"Roli.. after whatever happened with you yesterday, sid bhaiya won't let you stay away anymore. So, he's now going to take you to home" nidhi informed. 

"You don't need to worry. I will be there with you. And your little friend sakshi will also be there" nidhi continued as she thought roli might feel uncomfortable with the sudden changes. 

"I'm ok with it" roli finally said, giving relief to nidhi. 

Roli realized that whatever they all were doing it was for her good. So, she didn't want to cause anymore trouble to anyone. And decided to accept her identity, though it might take time. 

Reaching the Bharadwaj house, roli started feeling excited even unknown to herself. 

"Mumma.." Sakshi, who was waiting for them in hall, rushed near roli and hugged her. 

Keeping her hand on Sakshi's head, roli slowly caressed it with a slight smile. 

"I was waiting for you since so long" Sakshi broke the hug and said looking up at her mumma. 

Roli sat down on her knees and spoke, cupping Sakshi's cheeks "I'm here. You don't have to wait anymore". 

"I missed you a lot, mumma" Sakshi said with a pout and hugged roli by wrapping her little hands around her neck. 

Roli hugged Sakshi back. She might not be able to accept all the changes yet, but she couldn't resist herself from being affectionate with Sakshi. 

Sid smiled emotionally as it was the moment he was waiting for since so long. He couldn't have asked for anything else than watching Roli and Sakshi being together happily. 

"Roli di" called tanvi with moist eyes. 

Roli stood up and watched tanvi but she couldn't remember who she was. 

"She is tanvi. Rahul's wife" nidhi introduced, understanding roli might have not recognized her. 

"Welcome home, di" tanvi moved near roli and hugged her. She really missed roli all these days. 

Roli slowly hugged her back. She felt so warmth, watching everybody's concern for her.
