PART 10At Sanjeevani:
Dr.Shashank comes. From the front seat both Shanky and Armaan get out. Armaan opens the door for Riddhima to get out. Shashank is two steps ahead of Riddhima and Armaan. The ward boys and nurses present near the nurse station see them. All stare at Riddhima. Riddhima feels awkward. Armaan sensing the stares and glares looks at the ward boys, and protectively hold Riddhima's hands. Riddhima looks at him, and he through his eyes assures her that he is with her. There's an eerie silence in the atmosphere, the silence is such that one can cut it with a knife.
Shashank finally breaks the silence looking at Armaan-"Dr.Armaan aapke liye Dr.Atul special ward 1 mein hain. Unhein aapki saari tests karni hai. Dr.Riddhima bhi unhein assist kareingi aapke case par. Filhaal hum dono ko ek meeting mein jaana, uske baad milte hain phir. Ok?"
Armaan-"Ji, ok"
Riddhima whispering to Armaan-"Apna khayal rakhna"
Armaan whispering back-"Aur tum bhi. Jaldi aana, tumhe miss karoonga. Too bad main Administration ka part nahin hoon abhi, varna tumhare saath hi hota"
Riddhima smiles knowing that Armaan wants her confidence to stay high despite the awful meeting she is going to have. She also knows how much Armaan regrets not being able to stay with her during the meeting.
Special Ward 1:
Atul is busy checking a patient, and JP is assisting him. Armaan comes there. JP sees him, and asks him why he is not in Sanjeevani patient uniform-"Arrey bhaiya, aapki uniform kahaan hai?"
Before Armaan could say, JP tries to shove him out of the ward-"Pata nahin kahan kahan se aa jaate hain" However he feels Armaan's glare and biceps, and gets intimidated. He goes-"Nahin bhaiya hum toh yeh keh rahe thei ki.."
Armaan speaks up-"Dekho haath nahin lagana, varna agar mera ek haath laga toh tumhare chehre ki puri geography badal jaayegi"
Atul hearing Armaan turns around-"Arrey Armaan tu? Bhai, kab se wait kar raha tha tera"
JP connects the dots, realizing that this is probably Riddhima's fiance-"Excuse me, sorry bhaiya ji, kya aap hi Dr.Armaan Mallick hain? Aap hi ki toh pratiksha ho rahi thi subah se!"
Armaan gives JP one look to shut him up, and goes to Atul-"Haan Sir ne kaha tha tere ko kuch tests karne hain"
Atul-"Haan chal na bhai" and turning towards JP "Suno main Dr.Naina ko yahaan page kar raha hoon. Mujhe zaroori kaam hai. Dr.Naina aayein, toh unhein kehna ki special ward 1 ki duty hai unki". Saying this Atul and Armaan leave. JP says to himself 'Sahi mein Dr.Atul keh rahe thei, boxer hai 1st class ka, kya lohe ki tarah body hai.Sid Bhaiya aapne toh sher ko lalkar diya hai. Daad deni hogi par Dr.Riddhima ji ki choice ko! All in one!'
Administration Board room- Dr.Shashank, Dr.Riddhima, Dr.Keerti, Dr.Abhimanyu, and Dr.Nikita are seated. Dr.Sid is standing in front of them.
Abhi-"Dr.Siddhant aapko pata hai aapki is harkat ki severity kya hai?"
Siddhant-"Mujhe ab ehsas ho gaya hai"
Keerti-"Dr.Siddhant, yahaan ya videsh mein jab hum ek female patient ki operation bhi karte hain toh ensure karte hain ki unki privacy par koi infringement na ho kyunki humein ehsas hai unki privacy unki izzat ki kya maanyaata hai. Aur yeh hum tab bhi laagu karte hain jab observatory se koi interns nahin dekh rahein hain. Aur phir aapki yeh harkat?" (BTW this is a true fact guys. I've been in a medical observatory watching an angioplasty of a female patient)
Nikita-"Aapki yeh harkat ek sujhe huye professional ki nahin hai Dr.Siddhant Modi"
Shanky-"Hum jab apne interns ko chunte hain, toh expect karte hain kam se kam unhein etiquettes maloom ho. Humein lagta hai ki jinhe hum ne pick kiya hai, woh mature, sensible insaan ho. Par aap ne toh ek vehshi ki tarah harkat ki"
Siddhant-"I'm very sorry. Dr.Riddhima I'm really sorry"
Riddhima just turns her face away in disgust.
Abhi-"Chunki aapke 6 months kareeb kareeb khatm ho gaye hain, hum aapko Sanjeevani Madras transfer kar rahein hain. Aap apni baanki intership wahin par finish kareinge. Aur aap ko Sanjeevani Mumbai se bar kar diya jaata hai. Because you do not have a criminal background, nor there is in any registered offense against you Dr.Siddhant, aapki medical practice ki license ko hum nahin revoke kareinge.You can leave from here now this very instant. Apna pager aur ID nurse station par return kar dijiyega. Meeting adjourned"
Siddhant leaves from the board room. Shanky with Riddhima goes towards Abhimanyu
Shanky-"Dr.Abhimanyu, aapke liye yeh kaafi muskil hua hoga, but thank you. Aapne impartiality dikhai. Sanjeevani se aapko issi tarah ki justice ki umeed thi."
Riddhima-"Thank you Dr.Modi, aapse yahin umeed thi."
Abhi-"Dr.Riddhima, main khud sharminda hoon. Sid ki wajah main bhi aapse ankhen nahin mila pa raha"
Riddhima-"Nahin Dr.Modi isme aapki koi galti nahin hai. Aap eisa na sochein"
Abhi-"Suna hai Dr.Armaan bhi aa gaye. Kaise hain woh?"
Riddhima-"Haan woh aaj hi aaya. Theek hai woh. Mujhe ussay milna bhi hai abhi. Toh main chalti hoon"
Keerti-"Main bhi chalti hoon aapke saath Riddhima, Dr.Armaan ko dekhe ek arsa ho gaya. Shubhankar baata rahe thei unke baare aaj subah."
Shanky-"Mujhe kuch kaam hai, par Dr.Riddhima please Dr.Armaan ki test reports mujhe aap jald se jald pahooncha dein"
Riddhima as she leaves-"yes Dr.Shashank"
