Chap-2:
If you're going to do something tonight that you'll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late.
"Won't he get back his memory?"
Sakshi asked the doctor and was on the verge of crying.
"Oh, Come on! As I said, he may behave like that, if he does, it may last up to one day or two days maximum!"
"Ok!"
"One more thing! If he behaves abnormally, don't try to explain him that he lost his memory and so this occurs! Don't confuse him with your explanations! That's enough!"
"Doctor then we will get confused, right?"
"That's not a problem, right? But confusion in a patient's mind is definitely a problem! He can stay here still he recovers. Except that, there is no problem, ok? He won't wake up till the morning! One visitor can stay along.
"Boast the patient that he is all right, when he awakes. As I said, there is nothing to worry!"
The doctor reiterated as seeing our pale faces.
"I would like to see the fellow once, who hit him!" Chottu growled.
I was the one who stayed at the hospital that night and was instructed to contact them at any time, if need arose.
In the morning, he woke up as the doctor said and spoke differently as the doctor...
"What are you doing in my room, Shree?"
He asked as I was adjusting my pants which were out of place from the sleep, since I had to sleep in my outfit on.
Once in the night, a nurse came to check his pulse and caught me removing my outer shirt. She went outside the room as though she saw an ugly devil in the wash room. Then I had to button up my shirt and went to call her in yet again.
Well, he asked something, right?
"We are in the hospital sir!" I replied him adjusted my hair.
Before I could finish my hairdo, he asked again, "Oh,what happened Shree? Are you ok?"
Forgetting the bandage on his head, excitedly.
"Yes, sir! I'm ok, but yesterday-"
The doctor came in and cut me in.
"Hello! Mr.Arjun! How do you feel now?"
"Why, What happened doctor?"
"It's nothing to start with!"
The doctor started with his cliche.
And I got that it was his hackneyed -phrase, before saying anything important!
'Oh!', I was worried then.
"One small accident and accidents are quite normal in your field, right?"
The doctor asked casually.
"Yes, but what happened this time doctor?"
He asked the same question yet again.
"Just a hit on the back of the head!"
"I see!"
"Can you feel the pain now?"
"No, it is not paining!"
He touched his bandaged head then.
"Then no need for a bandage too! Let me see!"
The doctor removed the bandage and touched the spot on the back of his head.
"Is it paining?"
"No, doctor!"
"Then you are perfectly all right!"
"Can I go?"
"Mm... I'll let you know in an hour!"
He signaled me to follow him.
"Sir! I'll buy something to eat!"
I said as the nurse (Other one!) started checking his pulse.
"Doctor, I don't think he is normal!"
"I know he is not! He is behaving differently from the last time when he was shot and admitted here! I still can remember how he treated me like an arch enemy!"
I was relieved to hear him as I had difficulty to explain him what I felt and was restless to hear him say so.
"Doctor, is it normal or?-"
"Yes, it's normal for this type of patients! And he will be all right in two days!"
"He can stay here doctor! We can arrange for someone to be here with him all the time!"
"Right!"
