Ragna ff: Part 16 pg 87: The Ragna Chronicles - Page 62

The gang was at the Lonavala resort beach and were heading to the boathouse to rent speedboats for water skiing. They were still reeling from the news of mamaji's marriage. As they were walking along the beach they saw many people sun bathing, some people playing beach volleyball, some swimming and some playing frisbee.

As they headed towards the boathouse,Sunil wasn't paying attention to his surroundings. It was during this time that Sunil looked the other way and BANG he collided with a lady.

Sunil looked up and found his head smack dab in the middle of two cushy mountains.

Sunil gave a goofy grin and snuggled in closer. Suddenly Sunil felt his head being yanked back by the hair and looking into Kashish's face.

Kashish " Nilu shame on you. Instead of saying sorry to the lady your snuggling up to her boobies."

Sunil looked at the lady sheepishly.

Sunil " I am sorry. But I can't help it. You have the biggest set of jugs I have ever seen. They are even bigger then the ones Raghav had when he played Juliet."

Kalpana and Kashish snickered and Raghav looked on horrified as Sunil mentioned the fake breasts he had made to play Juliet.

Raghav quickly grabbed Sunil and took off towards the boathouse. Kalpana and Kashish followed trying to hide their snickers.

Raghav " did you really have to mention that."

Sunil just looked at him sheepishly and said " But it's true you had the biggest set of knockers ever but that lady beat you."

Raghav put his hand over Sunils mouth and said cut it out with the knockers or I will knock the wind out of you." Sunil immediately shut up.

Just then Kalpana came up behind Raghav and said " Forget about your boobies already. Let's go rent the boat so we can go water skiing."she grabbed his hand and started walking towards the boathouse. Raghav interlocked their hands and started following.

Once they had the boat rented they all put on their life jackets and got ready to waterski. Raghav went to Kapana and started helping her put the life jacket on.

Raghav " are you sure you want to ski first."

Kalpana " Come on RR it'll be ok. Sunil and BCS are skiing to. Don't worry." Saying so she slapped his cheek and said " worry wart."

Raghav gave her a big hug and lifted her off the ground.

Raghav " of course. I know how clumsy Nil is and that's why I am asking you if you are sure."

Kalpana just laughed and said " I will Be fine"

With that Kashish came and said " Ready? Let's go. Rags you're driving and us three will be in the back skiing."

Pretty soon Raghav was driving the speed boat and Sunil, Kashish and Kalpana were skiing in the back. They were thoroughly enjoying themselves when they passed a man who was fishing. The man leaned back and launched his hook but instead of landing into the water the hook hooked onto Sunil's swimming trunks.

Feeling a pinch in his bum cheek Sunil started to squirm. Due to all the squirming the hook went down the swimming trunks causing them to tear in half and fly away leaving a naked Sunil on the Water skis.

Seeing himself naked Sunil started moving side to side causing him to bump into Kashish who crashed into Kalpana.

Kalpana lost her balance and before she could straighten herself she fell into the water with her leg caught in the water skis. Kalpana tried to get herself untangled but she kept going underwater and was finding it hard to breathe.

Raghav heard screaming and when he looked back he saw Kashish and Sunil in the water but couldn't see Kalpana. He started to slow down the boat but another speed boat was coming straight at him and he swerved to keep it from hitting him but when he swerved unbeknownst to him he put Kalpana in front and the speed boat smashed into her.

Finally Raghav's boat came to a stop and the other boat stopped immediately after hitting Kalpana. Raghav got out and started scanning the water for for Kalpana when he saw her foot tangled in the water ski and some blood coming up to the water. The driver of the other boat came running towards Raghav and told him what happened.

They rushed to get Kalpana out and the life guard came rushing to them and called the ambulance while he tried to treat Kalpana's wounds. But she was drowning in blood and had fallen unconscious.

Just then the Life Guards eyes landed on Sunil who was getting out of the water.

The life guard started calling his colleagues on the Walkie talkie " nudist on the beach life guard please come and arrest the nudist."

Kashish spoke up " he was wearing swim trunks they fell in the water he will cover up."

Sunil quickly grabbed a towel off the boat and said " there my dinky won't blinky any more it's covered."

Just then Kashish and Sunil noticed Kalpana and went running to her. Raghav was a nervous wreck and told Kashish to call her parents and tell them to reach the hospital and that the ambulance would be here any minute to take Kalpana to the hospital.

Raghav was holding onto Kalpana very tightly when the ambulance arrived. He followed them in to the ambulance followed by Sunil and Kashish. They reached the hospital where Kalpana's parents and the other parents were waiting impatiently.

Seeing Kalpana brought in on a stretcher and bleeding profusely from her leg and arms where she got hit by the boat the most, Kalpana's mom began to cry and hugged her dad very tightly.

Mrs. Kapoor" Waheguru please save my daughter. I know how long I had to wait to get her. Waheguru I will come to the gurudwara walking bare feet just make my daughter well. After so many prayers and so much waiting I got her."

Mr. Kapoor held his wife tightly and wiped his own tears. " Dont worry waheguru won't let anything happen to our daughter."

Raghav and Kashish just hugged their parents and prayed for Kalpana. Just then the Dr. came out of The emergency room and said " She has bled a lot. We will need to give her blood transfusion and in order to do that we need to see who matches her blood type. "

The Dr. Then took Kalpana's parents in for testing to see if they matched Kalpana's blood type.

When Kalpanas parents were tested about ten minutes later the Dr. Came out and with a very serious tone said " I have bad news. Unfortunately neither Mr. Kapoor or Mrs.Kapoor match The patients blood type. Both Mr. Kapoor is blood type O and Mrs. Kapoor is blood type A but Kalpana needs blood type B. We will need to test the rest of you and if we still don't find a match we will have to order from the blood bank.."

They all looked at Kalpana's parents with shock. How could it be that neither her mother or father matched her blood type. She had to have one of theirs blood type. But at that moment they didn't think more about it as they needed to get tested to give Kalpana blood.

The Dr. Came out after everyone was tested and said in a solemn tone " unfortunately none of you match Kalpana's blood type so we have ordered the blood from the blood bank. But we need it within the hour she has lost a lot of blood and there is a risk of losing her if it's not here on time."

Raghav started to cry " it's all my fault I shouldn't have swerved the boat like that."

Sunil who had put on a pair of hospital scrubs also started crying. " no it's my fault for squirming and banging into Kashish."

Kashish came and patted both of theirs backs and said " it's no ones fault it was an accident."

Just then the Dr. And nursing staff came out of Kalpana's room with Kalpana being rolled out into the OT.

The Dr came to them and said " The blood has arrived and we will transfuse now."

A little while later the Dr. came out and said everything had gone well and they had stitched up her wounds due to her foot being caught in the skis for so long she had suffered a fracture and her foot and arm was in a cast.

Dr. " She is still under the anesthetic and I would suggest for you guys to go and change, get something to eat and then come back in 2 to 3 hours. By then she wil be awake and able to see you all."

Raghav wanted to stay but with everyone's encouragement left the hospital with them to freshen up. When they came back they were informed that Kalpana was conscious and they could visit her one at a time but her parents could go together.

Kalpana was sitting up in her hospital bed with the aid of the nurse who was giving her pain medication when her parents walked in. Seeing their yearly and swollen eyes and saddened faces her heart went out to them.

Kalpana " Hey that's not my momma Sita and my dad. My momma Sita and dad are always smiling. If you guys want me to recover give me your smiles. Come on I know you got it in you."

The minute Kalpana spoke they both started crying and smiling at the same time while trying to give her a light hug.

Mr. Kapoor " look bhagwane waheguru listened to our prayers and gave us our little girl back."

Mrs. Kapoor just nodded and kept hugging Kalpana. Afterwards it was Raghav's turn and as soon as he came in he was crying and gave her a hug and kissed all over her face.

Raghav " You gave us all such a scare. I felt as though my heart stopped beating when you were in need of a blood transfusion but no ones blood matched not even your parents. I my so great full I got you back."

Kalpana kissed his lips lightly and said " Don't worry nothing will happen to me. I will live my full love story." And she winked. Raghav held her close being careful not to hurt her injuries and kissed her on her cheek then pecked her lips and gave a sigh of contentment.

Just then Kalpana thought something and frowned.

Kalpana " What do u mean my parents blood type didn't match mine. I am their daughter one of their blood types would have to match how is that possible?"

Raghav caressed her head and made her lie down. " Don't worry. Right now you need to concentrate on getting better." He kissed her forehead and said " Thank god you are ." After everybody had met her they had to leave as the Dr. wanted Kalpana to rest. They gave her some sleeping meds and told everyone to come back in the morning.

The next few days were spent with Kalpana recovering in the hospital and everyone coming to visit her everyday. Finally the fifth day she was discharged and they left for home.

A day after they had come back to Mumbai Mrs. Kapoor was on the phone cancelling their tickets to Canada as they couldn't go with Kalpana having a fractured leg and arm.

When Mrs. Kapoor was off the phone Kalpana called her over to sit with her.

Kalpana " Momma sits there is something I have been wanting to ask you."

Mrs.Kapoor " Ask me anything beta."

Kalpana " How is it possible that yours and dad's blood didn't match mine? I have to match your blood type don't I?"

Just then Kalpana's dad also came and sat down.

Mr. Kapoor " Bhagwaane it's time. We need to tell her the truth. "

Mrs. Kapoor looked at Mr.Kapoor sadly and shook her head as years started to firm in her eyes. But Mr.Kapoor laid a reassuring hand on her shoulder and nodded his head.

Kaloana watchrd her parents interaction and a nervous bubble started to firm in the pit of her stomach. What were they talking about.

Kalpana " Dad what truth?"

Finally Mrs. Kapoor spoke up" Kalpana beta after hearing what we are about to tell you please don't feel like you aren't loved. We love you very much more then ourselves and more then anything in this world. You are our angel. After many prayers and many sleepless nights we got you. But beta this is true that I did not give birth to you. Your father and I adopted you. You see we tried to conceive for many years and tried many other options like in vitro fertilization but still I could not conceive. After 13 years of trying we finally decided to adopt and after 2 years of waiting our prayers were answered when we finally got you. You were just a day old when we got you and ever since we got you not a day goes by that we don't thank waheguru for lighting our lives with you."

Kalpana looked at her mom with tears in her eyes. " You mean I am adopted? Why didn't you tell me before? Were you ever going to tell me? I am 17 next month what were you waiting for?"

Mr. Kapoor " We are sorry beta but we couldn't bring ourselves to tell you. We tried to broach the subject many times but we would get scared and put it off. Beta we were afraid to lose you. Beta you are our life and to lose you would kill us."

Saying this Mr. Kapoor broke down in tears and Mrs. Kapoor came to hug and comfort him while she had tears streaming down her face as well.

Kalpana couldn't see her parents this way and got up and gave them a both a hug.

Kalpana " How could you think that you will lose me? If anything I love you guys more. But it hurts that I am not your biological child."

Mr. Kapoor hugged Kalpana tight and said " You are more than any biological child could be. We are happy we couldn't have kids because Waheguru saved you for us."

Mrs. Kapoor just hugged Kalpana tight and nodded.

Kalpana slowly let go and said " I think I want to be alone for awhile. I am going to go upstairs and ly down."

Mr. Kapoor patted her head and said " Sure Beta go and rest your mom will make you some tea and bring it up."

Kalpana nodded and slowly went upstairs with the crutches she was provided. Once upstairs she went and ly down on her bed. Raghav was calling her cell phone but she let it go to voice mail. She needed to clear her head. There were to many questions going through her mind and to many thoughts to process. Before she knew it she had drifted off to sleep with questions on her mind and a heaviness in her heart.

Kalpana awoke to someone caressing her head. When she opened her eyes she saw Raghav sitting beside her.

Raghav " hey sleepy sugar snap. I tried calling you but you didn't answer. So I came straight here and found you sleeping."

Kalpana smiled and said "The meds make me sleepy."

Raghav looked at her really closely and said in a gentle voice "hey what happened you look like you have been crying."

As soon as Raghav said that Kalpana couldn't hold back her tears and she hugged Raghav as if her life depended on it.

Raghav caressed her head and said " what happened? Why so glum sweet thang ?"

Kalpana "It's hard on your emotions when you find out what you thought to be your biological family turns out to be your adoptive family. In one second your whole truth is no longer your truth.

Raghav gave her a hug and said " I don't pretend to know what you are feeling but I do know those two people downstairs love you more than you can imagine and you may not be their biological child but you are much more than that for them."

Kalpana smiled through her tears and said " I know. That's why I love them even more. But I have so much going through my mind. How do I stop that?

Raghav just shrugged and said " let it go for now. Think about it when you have a better presence of mind."

Kalpana just hugged him tighter and nodded.
