Part 57


*Hospital*

Ridz walked into Sanjeevani early the next morning feeling a little weird. She looked around as everyone carried on with their usual day to day activities; she walked through the corridors towards the locker room and stopped by Umar Bhai and Sister Lovely.

Ridz: Good morning… - smiling

Sister Lovely: Oh good morning Riddhima Ji

Umar bhai: Have you heard…there's been lots of confusion about Mr Mayank…lot's of people are talking…no one likes him living here…

Ridz: Yeh we've heard about that…but don't worry everything will be ok

Sister lovely: That's what I've been trying to say…

Ridz smiled and walked off wishing them a good day. She had watched the news this morning and heard about the confusion of the locals. No one knew that Mayank Uncle was staying at their house but she still felt scared. She went straight to the locker room and saw the other interns had already arrived and was very quiet.

Ridz: Hey guys…

Everyone replied with a very dull hi.

Ridz: What's up?

Abhi: Nothing…just tired… - yawning

Muskaan: Me too

Ridz rolled her eyes and carried on towards her locker. She took out her lab coat and put it on looking over at Armaan who stared back with a small smile. She was just about to say Hi when…

Speaker: Interns to nurse station…

They all gathered their things and went to the nurse station dragging their feet along.

Keerti: Good morning interns…

They all mumbled good morning and looked up at her.

Keerti: Dr Armaan and Dr Riddhima Cancer ward…

They looked over at each other and smiled.

Keerti: Dr Abhi and Dr Nikkita General ward…

They chorused yes maam both grinning from ear to ear.

Keerti: Dr Sapna and Dr Atul Aids ward…

Both: Yes Maam

Keerti: Dr Rahul and Dr Muskaan Special ward…

Both: Yes Maam – Muskaan looked down shyly

Keerti: And Dr Anjali Path lab…now get to work…

They all made a move at once.


*Gupta House*

Nani: Where is everyone going? – coming from the kitchen

Mayank: Ma…we're going to Sanjeevani…

Nani: Theek hain…samaal ke jaana…

Shashank: Ma…hum bache nahi hain… - smiling, looking around – Where's Puneet?

Mayank: He's still in his room…

At the same time Puneet walked down the stairs hand in hand with Sonia, he was whispering something into her ears which made her giggle.

Mayank: He's worst than a teenager – to Shashank who sniggered

As they reached the bottom if the stairs Sonia let go of Puneet's hand and stood next to Nani sticking her tongue out at Puneet who stood there shocked then he made his way towards Nani and gave her a hug.

Shashank: Any time today Puneet?

Puneet: Huh?...Oh…ok…let's go…

Shashank and Mayank said bye then walked out of the house with Puneet. They got to the car and Puneet made an excuse to go back in, he made it to the top step and saw that his ma, his two bhabis and his wife was standing there.

Nani: Kya huwa?

He was shocked, not knowing what to say. He quickly gave Sonia a peck on the cheek then ran down the stairs and into the car. Sonia stood there in disbelief her cheeks going rosy and her two bhabi's smiling at her teasingly. They stood there and watched till the car zoomed out of sight.


*Sanjeevani*

Cancer ward

Armaan looked around the ward, for some unknown reason he felt weird, he had a depressing feeling in his chest, what was going on? He looked at each patient in detail, they all knew that their time was coming to an end sooner or later but still for the world they kept on smiling. They all looked happy, aware of their illness but completely clueless to what was happening to their inner body, but still they kept that smile on their face. Armaan admired them; he truly admired each an every one of them for their strength to stay alive for a while longer. Armaan finally came back to his senses as his patient called his name a few times. He looked down at him and smiled, finished his report then walked away to the next patient.

However, his mind still wondered away from his work. Everything was fine yesterday but today the wind seemed to be blowing in another direction and he was scared of the consequences.

Ridz looked over at Armaan, after last night she seemed much closer to him, she thought back to when she met him and how confused she was with his actions and reactions. He looked very macho but after listening to his story last night she felt as though she knew the timid Armaan hiding inside of that big built body. She looked closely at him as he sat and talked with an elderly patient making him smile and express his feelings and she suddenly felt as though she was afraid of loosing him. She jerked her head up and shook that thought out of her mind.

Armaan suddenly looked up and saw her reaction, their eyes met and Armaan questioned her, she shook her head and smiled, he smiled back at her and they carried on with their work, both lost in their own thoughts.


*Outside Sanjeevani*

Shashank, Mayank and Puneet arrived at Sanjeevani half an hour later; they got out of the car and were making their way towards the hospital with Shashank leading. Just as Mayank came into view they heard a gunshot. They turned their heads in panic to see if anyone was hurt but all seem to be fine.

Shashank: Are you ok? – to Mayank

Mayank shook his head but he seemed alarmed at the sudden event. Just as they were about to carry on into the hospital seven masked men carrying weapons surrounded them…


*Nurse Station*

Next to the nurse station stood Atul and Anjali with Dr Keerti in conversation. They were disrupted as a ward boy ran into Sanjeevani and straight for the main desk. Dr Keerti noticed and walked over to him with the interns at her heels. She stopped him to ask what was wrong; he gasped for air but gave her the shocking news. She instantly made an announcement on the speaker.

Without wasting any time everyone made their way outside in panic, interns in the lead. As they ran outside of the building they came to a halt watching the shocking scene in front of them, the Gupta brothers were surrounded by masked men, each carrying weapons and ready to attack. At once the doctors and hospital staff made their way towards them hurriedly forming a barrier with the brothers. Pedestrians and other passer bys were now forming a team with the masked men after realising who was on the opposition team.

At once the riot began, there was gun shots echoing around the place, any and everyone in the area was being attacked, some tried to get away, some joined in the fight and some defending themselves.

There were lots of people rushing around here and there, people were being trampled on, and some were badly injured and were being taken into the hospital to be treated by ward boys and doctors.

Armaan pulled Ridz away just in time as one of the masked men refilled his gun and shot aimlessly around the scene not caring at all about who was going to get hurt. Anjali and Sachin tried hard to stop people from getting involved but before they realised it was all getting out of hand.

A little while later the press arrived and started broadcasting the whole riot while the police were as usual no where to be seen.

Armaan was separated from Ridz as more people came pushing through the crowd. He had lost contact with her and a sudden fear entered his mind, his eyes scanned the scene, just one glimpse was all he needed but she was completely out of sight then he began to call her name. It soon turned into a mad search as he ran through the crowd screaming her name.

When the shooting had begun Abhi held onto Nikki tightly, she was petrified and he made sure he didn't let go of her but out of no where he was shot in the arm and he fell to the ground, Nikki cried for him but she was pushed out of the way.

Atul and Muskaan stood side by side next to the brothers who were being attacked the most, shoving people away and also fighting back at the same time. Muskaan and Atul both noticed that Rahul was surrounded; they made eye contact and decided that Atul would go and help him.

Ridz was confused she didn't understand what was going, she was being pushed from side to side. This wasn't the strong Ridz who would stand up for herself, right now she just wanted to curl up into a ball and hide away from all of this. Her thoughts were broken as she was pushed roughly to the ground. Her head smashed onto the floor and instantly she began to bleed. She held onto her head and her eyes began to close down. People up ahead were still running around and did not notice her, someone trampled on her leg and it snapped, she winced in pain but she couldn't move, her vision was becoming blurry.

Abhi got up and began to look around for Nikki. He searched the place and saw Sapna being pushed around; he ran to help her and got the people away from her. He carried her towards the hospital; he took her inside and placed her on the bench calling to a nurse to tend to her before running back outside to carry on his search.

Atul made physical action with any one that came in his way but sooner than he realised he was being ambushed by a group of masked men and he tried his best to handle them on his own.

Armaan carried on searching for Ridz, now he panicked even more as she was no where to be seen. He skimmed every direction looking for her; unwillingly he began to look at the ground in search of her. He suddenly stopped, his eyes fell onto a limped body in the middle of the scene.

Armaan: Ridz…was wearing the same colour top – whispered to himself

Not thinking twice he ran towards the body, he tried to dodge everything that came in his way, he almost tripped over a fallen body but his eyes stayed focus on her. He reached the body, the face was turned the other way and was covered with blood, and the body was lifeless. He fell to his knees and slowly moved his hand towards the face turning it in his direction…

Armaan: RIDDHIMA!!!!!!!!!

Well that's all for tonight...hope you guys have enjoyed it...PLEASE post your comments...
