Part 58

*Gupta House*

News Reporter: BREAKING NEWS!! A riot has broken out outside of Sanjeevani Hospital…We have been told that Mr Mayank was on his way into the hospital when he was nearly shot…our reporter Saima is at the scene with more information…

Saima: …As you can see there is a lot going on right here…people are getting hurt and being shot…some people are being trampled… – image of Ridz and Armaan flashed on the screen - and some people are fighting back… – image of Atul, Rahul and Abhi

Padma who was about to set the table for lunch looked up at the screen at the sound of Sanjeevani Hospital, she stood in shock listening to the news reporter, her hand slipped and the plates that she was holding fell to the ground, glass smashed and was spilled all over the floor. The other ladies came out of the kitchen wondering what had happened but before they could ask or say anything they saw Padma's eyes glued to the television screen which repeated the same images. They all stood horror struck looking at all the familiar faces.

Sonia saw Nikki crouching down crying and Padma saw Riddhima who laid lifelessly on the ground while Armaan crouched over her. As the images changed they all watched as the three brothers fought for dear life. Sarah watched motionless as Mayank was shot in the upper arm. She sunk to the ground; a single tear fell from her eye.

Sonia and Padma put their hands on either side of her shoulder…



*Inside of Sanjeevani*Main Corridor*

Sachin: Ward boy…take these patients in…they need to be taken into intensive care…Anjali tum… - looking from the patient's wounds to Anjali

Anjali stood by his shoulder, she looked terrified. Sachin gestured to the ward boy to carry on; the ward boy placed the patient onto a stretcher and wheeled him away. Sachin moved closer to Anjali and held onto her shoulders, making her look up into his eyes. They had a minor silent conversation through their eyes, a conversation full of love, trust and security but with a little bit of fear. A tear fell from Anjali's eyes and Sachin caught it in his hand. She closed her eyes letting more tears fall from them, Sachin placed his arms around her securely holding her tight. She held onto him like she was never going to let go.

Sachin: I love you… - whispered into her ear

Anjali: I love you too… - through tears

A few moments later she moved back. He cleared her tears and smiled at her, she had never looked so vulnerable.

Sharma: It will be ok…

Anjali: - wiping her tears away – I hope so…

He smiled at her and she smiled back at him.

Anjali: I'll go and check on the patients…

Sachin nodded and turned around to go back outside for the injured but Anjali held onto his hand. He stopped and turned around, questioning her with his eyes.

Anjali: Be careful…

Sachin: I will…tumhare liye… - with a smile

They continued taking patients in and taking care of them.



*Outside*

Armaan stared at her face in shock.

Flash back

Ridz: Armaan….

Riddhima is very fidgety and begins to go pale. She begins to twist her hands in each other quickly trying not to look at Armaan. He urges her one more time to speak up, now very concerned. She opens her mouth to speak but suddenly moves her hand up to hold her head and tries to stand up but she falls to the floor.

Armaan: RIDDIMA!! - runs to her and holds her head up from the floor



Doctor: I'm sorry she is no more…her situation was getting worse…

Armaan: What…do…you…mean… - barely able to speak

Doctor: Didn't you know? She had a brain tumor and it was at its last stage…

Armaan drops to the floor covering his ears. He wasn't able to hear anymore…there was a blur of voices around him he didn't know what to do. It felt like someone was pulling him away from it all. He didn't know who it was or where they were taking him he didn't care.

Armaan: Riddhima…….. – he cried out loud

Flashback End


Armaan slowly lifted her head from the floor and placed it in his lap, slowly caressing her hair.

Armaan: - tears welled up in his eyes - Don't do this to me…please get up...not you as well...please Ridz please get up...

He let the tears flow uncontrollably from his eyes and down his cheeks as he lifted her head towards his chest and hugged her tightly.



While fighting off a person from the opposition side Rahul noticed his dad was injured and doubled over with pain. Rahul punched the guy roughly in the face then ran to his father's side. He noticed that his dad was badly injured, there was gashes all over his body an he was bruised in many places. Rahul who was also hurt knelt down next to his father.

Rahul: Dad…

Mayank: Rahul… - winced in pain – Rahul…I don't know what's going to happen today…but promise me…promise me that you will take care of your mother…

Rahul: Dad…please…nothing of the sort is going to happen…we will get through this together…

Mayank: Rahul…I know I've never said this to you…but…I…I love you…son – slowly in pain

Rahul: I love you too Dad… - crouching down and hugging his father

Muskaan looked over at Rahul just in time, she pulled him out of the way as a guy with a stick was about to hit him in the head. Rahul glance back at the man and took the stick and fought back with the man.

Muskaan on the other hand was being pushed away by some guys who was trying to get at Mayank. He was in too much pain to fight for himself. While Muskaan tried to fight them off Rahul carried his father towards a doctor who could help him. He took him to the entrance of the hospital and made sure that he was being tend to.

Mayank: Rahul…you go…help her…she needs you… - referring to Muskaan – she's a really nice girl…

Rahul looked back at him a small smile playing on his lips. Mayank closed his eyes slowly then opened them back up saying that he understood. Rahul turned around and ran back to find her. Muskaan was pushed to the ground as Rahul came back to help. Rahul looked over at Muskaan who was also really hurt but didn't care, she fought back with strength. Rahul watched her and smiled to himself, she really was brave. He noticed a gun was being pointed at her, he ran towards her and pushed her out of the way just in time but the bullet flew straight into his arm piercing the flesh on his arms splashing blood everywhere as he fell to the ground.

Muskaan: RAHULLL!! – she ran towards him and held him in her arms - Rahul please get up…

Rahul: Musk…Muskaan I…just want…to…say that…I love you - slowly

Muskaan: Oi get up…you owe me a date… - smiling through tears

Rahul: Yeah… - smiling

Anjali rushed towards them.

Anjali: Rahul…

Anjali got straight to work, she got the bullet out right there and tried to heal Rahul.

Anjali: He is loosing a lot of blood…we need to take him inside…

Muskaan grabbed his hands and held on tightly.

Muskaan: Oi tu fikar mat kart…tu theek ho jayega



Abhi found Nikki huddled up in a small corner. She hugged her legs tightly as tears rolled down her cheeks. He ran towards her, he pulled her into a tight embrace the second he reached her. Nikki held on tightly letting her tears roll down her face.

Abhi: Nikki…are you ok? Your not hurt…are you? - worried

Nikki: I'm fine…Abhi…Abhi you're ok? – scared and searching his body for injuries

Abhi: Nikki…of course I'm ok…don't worry

Nikki: I thought…I thought… - fresh tears rolled down her cheeks

At the same time Puneet walked into the shaded area in which Abhi and Nikki were to witness the sweet scene but he was frustrated as well as injured.

Puneet: Nikki…Nikki tum theek to ho na…Abhi?

Nikki: Papa… - letting go of Abhi and hugging Puneet – Papa…I'm fine…are you ok? Please let's go from here…let's go home…to Mama…let's just go from here

Puneet: Nikki…it's ok – caressing her hair – Nikki…it's ok…you'll be fine…kuch nahi hoga…

Nikki: Papa…please…let's go…

Puneet: Nikki…listen – holding her back and looking into her eyes – I have to stay here…I need to be at my brother's side…he needs me the most…don't worry…Abhi – looking at him – take Nikki home…take care of her…and Sonia… - silently

Abhi: I will…

Puneet: I gotta go…you guys leave now…

Nikki: Ok Papa…please take care of yourself…Mama ke liye… - hugging him tightly

Puneet: I will… - he kissed her forehead then left

Nikki: Abhi…I'm scared…

Abhi: Main hoon na…don't worry – hugging her closely

Nikki: Why is this happening?

Abhi: I don't know…I really don't know… - slowly

Nikki: Please Abhi…take me away from here…I don't want to stay here…I want to go back…

Abhi: We will…let's just get through this first…ok?

Nikki: Promise? Promise you won't leave like last time? – still hugging him she looked up at his face

Abhi: - looked down at Nikki and smiled - I promise…

Nikki hugged Abhi and wanted to stay like this forever; she felt safe.



Mayank sat just inside of the hospital as Anjali tended to his wounds. He fidgeted looking here and there, his mind working madly.

Anjali: Kya huwa uncle?

Mayank: Anjali beta please jaldi karo…I have to go back out… - looking at the door as more of the injured were brought it

Anjali: Par uncle…you can't go back out like this…

Mayank: I need to Anjali…I need to be out there with them

Anjali: But uncle I can't let you go out…

Mayank: Please try to understand beta…all these people – he winced – all these people out there are fighting for me…and I'm just sitting here…I can't leave them…

Anjali: Uncle…

Mayank: Please Anjali… - standing up – Let me go…

He walked out and left her standing there speechless. She waited several seconds then decided to follow him.



The crowd was getting much bigger now and the situation was now out of hand. There was no place to move but still everyone was being pushed to the ground. Atul and Sapna were both bruised but they were now helping Anjali and Sachin with the injured. They bumped into each other as Atul walked out of the hospital and Sapna was going in.

Atul: Sapna…are you ok?

Sapna: Yeah I'm ok but…your not… - holding his arm

Atul: I'll be fine…but are you sure your ok?

Sapna: Yes Atul I'm ok

Atul saw Anjali carrying a little child in her arm who was badly hurt. They both ran to help her.

Anjali: We have to take her to ICU…she is very serious

Atul: Where are all the stretchers? – looking around

Anjali: All in use - quickly

Atul: I'll take her

Sapna: Are you sure?

Atul: Yeh I'm sure

He took the little girl from Anjali's arm, taking her in and Sapna went with him while Anjali went back out.



Muskaan was rushing around when she noticed Rahul back outside, she ran towards him and started shouting.

Muskaan: Rahul? What is this? I told you to go inside…

Rahul: But Muskaan…

Muskaan: No Rahul…you're injured…

Rahul: Muskaan…will you stop…?

Muskaan stopped and looked at him.

Muskaan: Are you ok?

Rahul: I've been better – he smirked

Muskaan: Shut up – she smiled

Rahul: Muskaan…I need to be here for my family…



Armaan still had Riddhima in his arms, hugging her tightly towards his chest until she made a sudden jerk.

Ridz: Arm…Armaan? – trying to open her eyes

Armaan: Yeah…I'm here Riddhima…I'm here – looking down at her

Ridz: It's…Ridz – smiling slightly

Armaan: - smiled – I'm here… - silently whispering into her ears and thanking God that she was fine

Ridz: Armaan I…can't…I can't feel…my legs… - wincing in pain

Armaan: Try not to move it...it will be ok

He looked around for help but he couldn't see anyone that could help him. He looked back at Ridz, she looked really pale.

Armaan: Ridz…I need to tell you something…

Ridz: I know…

Armaan looked at her quizzically.

Ridz: I…love you Armaan

Armaan couldn't believe his ears.

Ridz: I love you Armaan…I want to be with you…now…and…forever… - gulping after every word

Armaan: Ridz…

Ridz: Armaan…please tell me…that you love me too… - wincing – please…Ouch! – closing her eyes as she got a splitting pain in her head

Armaan: Ridz…I…I lo…I need to take you in…

Ridz: Please Armaan…just once… - grabbing his hand tightly

Armaan: Ridz I…I love you too – silently

Ridz smiled and winced with pain once more. He couldn't leave her here in this condition. He picked her up slowly but that just made her turn even paler. He was afraid she was running out of time, he couldn't waste any more time. He held her securely in his arms and ran towards the hospital. Just as he reached the entrance he heard…


BANG


Armaan froze in mid step…
Ridz's eyes flew open…
Rahul's head snapped towards the sound…
Muskaan's heartbeat stopped…
Nikki jumped…
Abhi held her and closed his eyes…
Atul looked back to where the sound came from…
Sapna sat down slowly fear written on her face…
Anjali's hands froze…
And someone dropped to the ground…
