Part 25: Enjoy and Comment!
It had been almost two days and Geet was still in danger and very critical in the ICU. Armaan and Shilpa were in a meeting with the rest of the doctors discussing Geet's case. " Dr Armaan.. aapko kya lagta hai" asked one of the doctors. " I think its a case of poisoning... and especially in her pregnant state.. its very dangerous for her and her baby... someone might have put slow poison in a drink or food..." said Armaan. Shilpa looked at Armaan shocked! " Dr. Armaan.. what are you saying?!!? how.. why.!?!?!" exclaimed Shilpa. Armaan looked at her and said, " The reports have come in.. we have to see it.". Shilpa looked very worried... what would she tell Maan? " Dr. Shilpa... please open it.. " said Armaan as he tried not to show any emotion. Armaan handed her the folder and as she was taking it... her hands were shaking. She closed her eyes to quickly pray and then opened them once again. She flipped open to the page and it read, " THE BABY COULD NOT BE SAVED... THE CAUSE IS UNIDENTIFIED. SOME MORE REPORTS MUST COME IN BEFORE THERE IS A SET CAUSE FOR THIS INCIDENT."
Shilpa's eyes grew wide in terror and her heart broke into tiny little pieces... what would she tell Geet and Maan??! that their baby was DEAD? Shilpa fought her tears but handed the folder to Armaan who was looking at her with a worried look on his face. As he read the contents, he was absolutely shocked but did not show it on his face because of professionalism. Doctors cannot hold emotion in front of their work. " Doctors... I believe Geet will be okay... we are just waiting for her to respond to the medicine" said Armaan unemotionally. "Okay. thanks doctors... the meeting is over.." said Armaan coldly.
When the doctors left, there was only Armaan and Shilpa in the room. Shilpa had tears rolling down her eyes and Armaan saw it and he put his hand on her hand. "Shilpa.. we have to be strong.. for our friends... we're doctors.. we see this everyday..." said Armaan as he was trying to console her. Shilpa shot out of her seat and ran towards the window and started crying. Armaan followed her and said, " Shilpa.. stop jaan.. please". " Be strong.. let's just go inform Maan.. he has a right to know". "WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSE TO SAY TO MAAN AND GEET? THAT THEIR BABY IS DEAD? THEY WON'T EVER SEE THE BABY AGAIN?" screamed Shilpa. She stood there crying as her knees felt weak. Armaan hugged her tightly and said, " Shh.. jaan.. its okay... main hoon na... I'll take care of it". Shilpa just cried and cried for an hour and was in the meeting room with Armaan... Armaan could not help his tears from rolling too... it was about Geet and Maan. Armaan sat Shilpa down and wiped her tears and said, " Shilpa.. please.. calm down.. we have to go tell him now.. its not fair" . Shilpa recollected her emotions and said, " Okay let's go... you are right.. its not fair". They both held hands and exited the room.
They found Maan sitting the same way... same lifeless body... unemotional man.. Sameer, Meera and Aryaan were both sitting with Maan. Armaan said, " Maan...". Maan jolted out of his thoughts and said, " Armaan.. geet theek hai.. kahaan hai woh". " Maan.. I need to talk to you"said Armaan. Maan was now very worried.. possibly more than before. Armaan took Maan aside and said, " Maan.. I want you to promise me that you won't act impulsive and insane after hearing this.." said Armaan. " Armaan.. I promise.. now please bataoo kay Geet theek hai naa?" said Maan. " Geet is almost out of danger... and we cannot identify what has occurred. Armaan continued, " And Im sorry to tell you this but... we couldn't save your baby". Maan looked at Armaan with wide eyes and he felt as if the whole world was taken away from his feet. "Armaan.. kyun? kaisay.." stuttered Maan. " We don't know.. ab police inquiry hogi.. Ive already called the commissioner" said Armaan as he put his hand on Maan's shoulder supportingly. Maan had tears coming down his eyes and Armaan hugged him. " Maan.. you have to be strong for Geet... please... it'll break her to see you like this" said Armaan supportingly. Maan broke out of the embrace and said, " Yeah.. you are right...". Maan wiped his tears and recollected his emotions.
" Okay.. Maan.. now we have to go see Geet.." said Armaan as he walked him to the waiting area. " Can I come in with you?" asked Maan hopefully. Armaan looked at Maan and normally he would automatically refuse something like that. " Theek hai dude.. aajao" said Armaan with a hopeful smile. So both guys went into the ICU where they saw Geet hooked upto machines. She looked so frail... so weak.. that even blowing air on her face would seem like she would fly away. Maan walked towards her and Armaan began checking everything. Maan sat beside Geet's bed and he put his hand over hers which felt like bones and a thin layer of white skin. Maan kissed her hand and just put his head down on her bed.
" Maan... Maan.. Maan.. please call My Maan... I beg of you" whispered Geet lightly as her eyes were closed. Maan lifted his head and said, " Armaan.. ARMAAN.. SHE SAID SOMETHING.. GEET... GEET.. AISAY NAHI KARTAY.. WAPAS AAJAO". Armaan turned around to see Geet.. and was surprised.
Suddenly, one of the machines started beeping loudly and the rest of the doctors including Shilpa rushed in. "GEET.. kuch bolo yaaar.. please.." said Maan as he was panicking. All of the doctors started to attend to Geet and Shilpa turned around to handle Maan. She held him back and said, " Maan.. please go.. jaoo.. please.. Geets in danger in again.. please JAO". She pulled Maan out of the room and outside she said, " Maan.. don;t panic... please.. Geet will be okay..". " Take care of my GEET SHILPA.. AGAR USSE KUCH HO GAYA NA.. TO MAIN TUM DONO KO KABHI MAAF NAHI KAROONGA" yelled Maan as Sameer, Meera and Daadi maa went aside to calm him down. . " I PROMISE YOU MAAN..KUCH NAHI HOGA GEET KO.." said Shilpa as looked one last time at everyone. She rushed into the room where the blinds were closed.
Maan sat down on the seat and was completely motionless... and everyone was by his side. Aryaan came upto Maan and said, " Mama ko kya hua Papa? mama theek ho jayengi naa?". Maan looked at his son and took him into his arms. He stroked his hair and said, " Nahi beta.. kuch nahi hoga Mama ko..".
