Hie Fam! I know everyone's angry and frustrated and me too. You can notice I even changed my dp from Riansh to just Ridhima 🤣 because that's all I can do and also I can write and read other works to soothe my soul. So here is a drabble kind of. Not proofread just penned down aivyi.
Thank you for reading 🤗
Sia has told them everything. The truth. The same truth Ridhima has said millions of times but he didn't believe, but not believing her is another thing, she could have taken his unforgiveness but what he did, what he did today to a innocent and pure soul like her was a crime. A sin no one will forgive him and his family for. Doctors checked his sister and assured them everything was normal. They explained everything to Ridhima and she nodded patiently forgetting her own misery and the humiliation they subjected her to.
"Mr. Raisinghnania, side please" She said, her eyes still red but the difference was it was no more due to hurt or pain but due to anger.
"I'm sorry Ridhhima" he stuttered
"Excuse me? How come you know my name? Oh I see Because your sister called me out?" She said knitting her brows together
"Ridhim..-" Dadi came towards her
"Dr. Ridhima for you" she pointed her finger at her and moved it towards him
"I understand I am your sisters physiotherapist, and I will be by her side whenever she needs me" she said looking towrds Sia who smiled at her. She faintly smiled back.
"You know what, main abhi neeche ja k sabko sach batata hu.." Vansh wiped his tears and said
"Nahi Mr. Singhania, I will do the honors" she smiled wide and walked downstairs with the family following her
She stood in front of podium and cleared her throat to speak, addressing the reporters.
"I am so sorry everyone for whatever happened earlier, I want to clear out everything" Ridhima spoke
"So who is Mrs Vansh Raisinghnania finally?" One of the reporters asked
"Of course it's.. Ahana..as Mr. VRS said" she smiled wide shocking everyone including Vansh
"Ridhima-" he said nervously
"I don't associate with this man and his family at all" she added looking at them disgusted
"So.why did you say all that?" Another reporter questioned her
"Yes I was coming to that-" she paused nd took a deep breath "actually as you heard, Sia called my name, Sia is my friend and also my patient nd she was unresponsive since a long time and coma patients might feel hurt and pain like us, familiar voices or stories or incidents help coma patients to respond so I tried one of those theories Because I know she loved me a lot and cannot see me treated like that.." She completed not believing she actually said that. How lame.
The reporters asked a few more questions and after they were fully convinced, the conference came to an end.
"Ridhima tumne wo sab kyu kia?" Vansh rushed inside Sia's room and saw Ridhima reading her reports. She looked at him and stayed quiet
"Kuch to bolo"
"Dekhiye Mr. Rai Singhania, I don't talk to strangers or dusri baat aap please mjhe Dr. Ridhima boliye. Apki behen abhi stable h and for some days I will keep coming back to check on her" She said keeping the reports back in drawer and pecking Sia's forehead.
"I am sorry Ridhima"
"Aap sach m pagal hai kya? Please mera naam casually lena band kijiye.. I like to keep my personal and professional life seperate" she answered as she came out of the room and saw the whole family waiting there
"Beta-" Dadi walked towards her
"Oh god not again, aap log ese he melodrama krte rehte h ya aj kuch special hai?" She pouted and acted like confused
"Ye kese baat kr rahi ho tum dadi se" Ishani screamed
"Chillao mat, behri nhi hu mai, tumhari dadi h tum tameez dikhao mene kya theka le rakha h tum sabse tameez se baat krne ka.. jada jawaan chalai na to Sia ki physiotherapist bhi tum he ban jana mjhe koi shauk nhi h yaha aane ka" she yelled and her voice echoed in the room followed by a pin drop silence. Ishani was gritting her teeth and everyone was gawking at her
"You know what, let me explain this once and for all-" she said rolling her eyes
"I am Dr. Ridhima, feed it in your mind, specially you Mr Singhania" she pointed at him
"Secondly, you brats, I treat her and I get paid for it I'm not your servant and none of you owe me, one more time you try interfering in my job or doing anything I dislike, good luck with finding another Dr for Sia, I love her a lot and that is the only reason I will still treat her but if you don't love her enough I can't help it" she sighed looking at Aryan and Ishani threathening them with her eyes
"Lastly, Ahana.." she said blinking "you know bhot achi lag rahi ho tum" she said and removed the kohl from her eyes and pasted it at her nape "kahi nazar na lag jae" she smiled
"Actually ek cheez ki kami h" she said and looked inside the bag that she had packed earlier.. "ye lo, ye bhi tumhara he h.. galti se mere pass agya" she said stretching her hands and giving her Uma's anklet that Vansh gifted her. Vansh was looking at her with brimmed eyes and standing there like a living corpse
"Ab jaate jaate apko adress nhi krungi to aap bura maan jaenge to apke sawal ka jawab b de deti hu" she said smirking at Vansh. She felt bad, her heart was aching looking at Vansh in a miserable way but she reminded herself of the humiliation she faced a few hours ago in front of the whole world and the games that he played with her "aap puch rhe the na mene wo sab kyu kia.." she said referring to what she had told the press
"Mene isliye kia Mr Singhania taki zindagi mai kabhi bhi kisi bhi mod pe aap apne aap ko mjhse na jod paye, you know I realised, I don't need a suffix as long as I have my prefix and it's not Mrs anymore, it's Dr." She stared at him and inhaled sharply to control her tears, tears of pride and self esteem. Tears of dignity. She was finally herself. She was finally not an orphan anymore. She had her. She had found love in a hopeless place, within herself.
