Chapter Seventy seven...

loss... work... silence... pain...

Nidhi looked dazed as she saw Smarty ready with open arms to jump into the arms of the young lady..and as she walked towards them..inspector Samar stepped in..and took the child in his arms..n then looking at a visibly shaken Nidhi..he addressed Ashutosh n said"i feel aapke cabin me chal ke baat karein"!but Smarty could not be controlled and yelled..as the young couple pleaded"please cop..let us hold him.."!and the old inspector gave them a clise look n acqueised..as Smarty hugged the lady ..n she kissed him a hundred times..as the baby smiled n rubbed his nose on her bosom n cried "mammma"!!Nidhi blinked her tears back...

"Dr Ashutosh. .yeh hain Nancy aur Ted Robinson,american tourists hain..haridwar aaye they aur wahaan se inka yeh bachcha..ALLAN ..aapka SMARTY kidnap hua tha..FIR lodge karayi thi inhone..interstate alert hone me thoda time lag gaya..but sab theek se check hua hai...aur bachche ne sab shaq door kar diye.."!n then explained everything in Englidh for the benifit of the Robinsons..who smiled at Nidhi n Ashutosh n explained how the child had been lost while they had got down from a boat ride at the Ganga...and how they had run from pillar to post..till they had seen the pic on tv n contacted the police at Lucknow!

Inspector Samar added "kal se aapka cell try kar raha tha..but constantly out of reach tha...i know i should have told you..n dr nidhi..."!Ashutosh did not speak..he just looked at the child..n then as Ted spoke "we are truly grateful to u both n ur institution for having taken care of our son..so well..."and Smarty clapped n gurgled..as he opened his mouth..n nidhi immediately exclaimed :"hes hungry..cerelac leta hai..he takes cerelac"!mrs Robinson smiled n cuddled Allan as she opened her bag n took out a pack of baby biscuits n added"he loves these"!no proof was needed as Smarty jumped at the biscuits n bit into one...as his father held him n touched his beard...n said"papppa"n kissed him on the cheek as Ted played with him fondly..As the Robinsons got up..Dr Ashutosh looked at Nidhi..who said"just a minute plz..."and Mrs Robinson said"off course"as Nidhi ran out n reappeared with the huge packet of clothes n toys that they had bought for their Smarty...she looked at Dr Ashutosh n as he signalled..she gave the packet n said"just a few things we had bought for Smarty...i m sorry for Allan..would you plz accept"?n the Robinsons smiled as they took the pack..n got up to leave ..Mr Robinson politely enquired "Dr how much do i have to pay for the hispital care for Allan..."Dr Ashutosh's eyes flickered with emotion for a nano second before he had grip on himself n replied"Mr Robinson..you don't have to pay anything...you see the maths of life is not very easy...but plz lets have the privilege of having looked after Smarty..sorry Allan"!Ted smiled as he looked at both Midhi n Ashutosh n Nidhi n added "we d certainly call him Smarty ...as a pet name..in ur rememberance...i promise that..."and as they got ready to leave Nidhi asked with some hesitation "may i..may we just hold him..once..one last time please..."The Robinsons smiled as they gave Allan to Nidhi who hugged the baby ..n handd him to Dr Ashutosh. ..who silently waited for the child to touch his beard...but he did not..he jumped into his dad's arms n kissed his beard n said"papppa"...as Ashutosh gulped...

The couple waved as Ashu Nidhi stood in the cabin...and then Inspector Samar returned..he was a man nearing his retirement..he looked at both of them n putting a kindly hand out..he exclaimed"normally kisi khoye hue bachche ke parents milte hain to bahut khushi hoti hai...aaj pehli baar ..pehli baar dukh ho raha hai...i m i m sorry doctor..."n he walked off...

Ashutosh looked at nidhi..standing with her eyes full of tears...and just as he closed the door n opened his arms to hug her...just as Nidhi moved towards him..the door of the cabin flew open...it was dr Ranganath. .."sir..plz hurry..its an accident..cranial surgery..."Ashutosh sighed n added"dr Ranganath. .dr Nidhi will be my scrub today.."!and he took her by the elbow..as they moved out to change into the operating gown n masks..masks that d mask n cover all their emotions...

Ashutosh silently tied nidhi's gowns straps as they entered the OT putting on their masks..masks that covered nearly all their feelings..as they entered..and Dr Ashutosh saw Dr Gandhi operating upon the patient's abdomen..Nidhi indicated n said"you d have to work in tandem with dr Gandhi:sir"n Ashutosh nodded as he looked intently at the MRI of the patient..the parietal lobes were badly injured..he murmured "its touch n go"n as nidhi nodded..he spread out his hand n said"scalpel please "!

It was a most complex surgery with dr Ashutosh working with extreme dexterity ..separating synapse by synapse..till nidhi signalled .."Dr Gandhi is done sir"n ashutosh nodded n said"increase the oxygen supply ..and as nidhi did so,he continued with his work and it was after a good four hours that he said what nidhi had heard so many times in the OT from him "hey doc..could you plz stitch it for me"?n nidhi nodded as she saw him move out..n then continueed what she had been instructed to do..she stitched n shifted the patient to the icu n finally walked into the changing room..and almost staggered on to the stool..she wanted to close her eyes..cut herself from everything n everyone...she heard a voice. ."dr Nidhi..dr Ashutosh bula rahe hain aapko"!

Nidhi collected herself..changing quickly she entered his cabin..he was signing files..he looked at her n said"plz file tthe weekly report of the kid's ward..now"n as nidhi stood dazed ..he raised his characteristic eyebrow and nidhi knew she had to do it...

As an hour later nidhi filed the reports;Malti bai came n said"dr nidhi..dr Ashutosh bula rahe hain..parking mein "and nidhi hurried out..as Ashutosh threw open the door of the blue BMW and she collapsed into the seat...as he drove homewards...the fm playing.."KAHAAN TAK YEH MANN KO ANDHERE CHALENGE..UDAASI BHARE DIN KABHI TO DHALENGE.."

The drive was a silent one as nidhi looked outside..and as he parked the car he said"ghar aa gaya..chalo.."!n nidhi got down..her mind unable to think..her limbs barely moving...was it pain..or fatigue?

Ashutosh saw baba walking in the hall..anxious..n worried..as they entered n ge said"Ashu beta..."n Ashu looked at him..and baba seemed to understand all...he kept quiet n looked at nidhi..as Ashutosh called out "kaka zara coffee aur maggi bana deejiye..main aataa hoon lene"n then holding nidhi by the waist..something he rarely did in fron of baba ..he took her inside n shutthe door..

Before nidhi could say anything..he had pulled out their night clothes n held her by the elbow taking her into the toilet..as she stood..he undressed her..n then himself..n stood under the shower..the drops of water suddenly bringing her to life..to pain ...to feeling..she shuddered as he held her firmly...n both just stood in silence..as nidhi lowered her eyes..n seemed close to tears..tears that could be camouflaged in the water drops..but he switched off the shower n wrapped a towel around her bust..another around his waist n got her to the room..

As they changed..Ashutosh closed her nightie n whispered"tum baitho..i d get coffee...'

As they sat sipping coffee alternately from the same mug and he nudged her to eat..till she almost clised her eyes in fatigue n he lifted her to bed n as she lay..he just kept looking at her..able to feel ger pain that he wasn't allowing her to express...had he succeeded in digresssing her??he sighed as he lay by her side ..bone tired but not able to close his eyes in the fear that he might see a dream..a dream that couldn't be fulfilled..of a baby in his arms touching his beard n saying "papppa"!Ashutosh whispered "oh Smarty"n nidhi woke up with a start...as she looked at him...n he hugged her..close really close ..sharing the broken dream..the unsaid pain.

N the unshed tears...yes they would share everything. .always..forever...

Dr Ashutosh was awake...it was a sunday...a sunday that he was finding hard to spend..he gazed at nidhi..still fast asleep...he wanted her to sleep for as long as she could..he had explained things to baba who had just bowed his head..but then smiled n said"chalo..Smarty ko uska ghar mil gayaa"!n Ashu too had felt a momentary joy..yes Smarty had been lucky..not many kids are...

He had informed the hospital that he n nidhi were available n could be called in anytime..he just hoped for once there could be surgery after surgery n they could just lose themselves in work...like he had done for so many years...

Nidhi opened her eyes n got up trying to feel him...he walked towards her n caressed her hair..."jaao chai lao mere liye plz..."and just as she was getting up...his cell rang.."Dr Pooja"!he picked it up..a lil amazed..she should have been on her flight to Australia. ..he took the call...n as nidhi returned with chaai..he informed her"dr Pooja is coming to Lucknow..in an hour...she wants to meet old friends...staying at Taj"!nidhi looked at him n then as she gave him the tea cup she said ..."kyun na dr Bhagat ko unse milwaane ki koshish karein...kuch soonapan kum hoga...kamse kum..unki zindagi ka.."!Ashutosh was in a dilemma as he recalled pooja serenading"ok sweetie"on the phone...but then he looked at the faint spark in those eyes that had seemed dead yesterday...n he smiled..n nodded..

As nidhi took her cell n dialed dr Bhagat...

Chapter Seventy eight...

ye Lucknow ki sarzameen...

Dr Pooja patted Advit to sleep..in the flight he had developed fever..and as they checked into the Taj Awadh,she observed red rashes on his chest..it seems he had measles. ..oh God .!!thought Pooja..what a terrible moment..to be ill in a new city..where the top paediatrician was his own dad..whom he had never met!

Pooja dialled the front office and asked for antibiotics n calpol ..as she administered the medicines..there was a call..dr Ashutosh n Nidhi had come to meet her...should she tell Ashutosh? ?seek help??or simply return to Australia as soon as possible. .Advit held her hand..and she looked at him..flushed with fever..she caressed his cheeks as he said"mom..go and meet your friends..don't panic..i am fine..nothing much. ."as always..Advit was solving her problems..instead of the other way round..

Pooja walked to the elevator..as Ashutosh n Nidhi waited..Nidhi holding Ashutosh's hand..hope n excitement in her eyes.."lets call Dr Bhagat..abhi"!Ashutosh smiled but stopped her.."nidhi..lets wait..i have my doubts..ho sakta hai..dr Pooja ki zindagi mei koi aur aa gaya ho..in gyarah baarah barson mein.."!Nidhi shook her head.."i dont agree ..agar woh sach much pyaar karte the ek doosre se to waqt bhi unhe alag nahi ker sakta..and somehow mujhe nahi lagta ki she could have moved on..."!Ashutosh reminded her softly"but remember...she got rid of the baby..it probably won't be easy for Bhagat..i have seen him through the agony.."Nidhi interrupted "to if u have seen him suffer ..aapko nahi lagta ki woh bahut miss karte hain ..adhoora mehsoos karte hain..unke bina"??

The conversation was cut short by dr Pooja entering the lobby..smoothening her long skirt..as she saw dr Ashutosh n Nidhi...

Ashutosh extended her hand.."welcome pooja..good to have you in Lucknow..i think after 12 years"!Pooja nodded "yes its been 12 years..i was so keen to go around..."!Dr Nidhi added"to chaliye na..we d love to take you around..Lucknow had changed a lot..n yet remains the same..youd fall in love all over again...i mean with the city...yeh Lucknow ki sarzameen"!Pooja smiled kindly at the young nidhi n then replied"thanx so much nidhi..."n then at Ashutosh "sir..it wouldn't be possible..you see ...he ..he is very ill..."Dr Ashutosh raised an eyebrow n asked"who your partner...or.."?and Pooja looked away..

Just as the front office manager came running 'mam..plz..come to your room.."and Pooja had a deep anguished look in her eyes..as she almost hurried to the elevator..Ashutosh looked at nidhi who was pleading him to follow pooja to the room...

"No nidhi..we just can't go this way..its her partner...i told you..could you see the fear in her eyes..she loves him..there is nothing for Bhagat now..lets go"!and he pulled nidhi with him...just as the manager came running.."dr..plz..dr..plz come to room no.113..dr pooja needs you now..its an emergency "!!

Dr Ashutosh retraced his steps..as nidhi too turned n rushed to the elevator..as they pressed the first floor ..Nidhi knocked at the suite 113 and Dr Pooja called"plz come in.."As they entered she looked v worried..as Dr Ashutosh asked "whats wrong with him..your partner "?she didn't reply but signalled them to follow into the bedroom..as nidhi looked at Ashu. .a lil apprehensively and they entered...

Dr Ashutosh n nidhi were almost frozen as they saw the 10 or 11 year old kid withcurly hair..and handsome features..lying flushed with rashes in bed..

He needed no introduction. .his features ..his nose said..he was pooja n dr Bhagat's child..n yet Dr Ashutosh looked at dr Pooja...who just whispered "he is Advit ..my son..n he s having .."dr Ashutosh smiled warmly ..touching the child "he just has a mild attack of measles n is going to be fine..hi Advit..i am dr Ashutosh. ."and Advit looked at Ashutosh n then at his mother...the question in his eyes...as Pooja shook her head n said"he was mine n ur dad's senior..in college...n this is his wife dr nidhi..

Ashu signalled to nidhi..afyer all she was a paediatrician n she looked around for a stetho..as Pooja got hers..she examined Advit n said"dr Pooja its measles for sure..i d suggest Azithral n calpol with a cough syrup coz hes coughing to breathlessness...does he have any allergy "?Pooja nodded"yeah..allwrgic todust..just like...his.."!and nidhi smiled as she soothed Advit n patted him..repeating don't worry son..u n ur mom are with friends..just dont worry..u r gonna be fine n then we d take u around Lucknow..."as the kid closed his eyes in rest..the adults came into the sitting room..as Nidhi re emphasised"dont worry dr Pooja ..he s going to be fine

..."!

Dr Ashutosh looked at Pooja searching for an explanation and she looked away...he stood with hands in his pockets n asked"so he is your partner..your "sweet heart"!?and she nodded...saying"yes dr..he s all i have..n to think i had wanted to abort him once...hiw strange is life..."!

Nidhi looked at Ashutosh feeling vry raw..n clise to tears..she wondeted why..as Ashutosh sighed n asked the questionwhich he knew nidhi wanted to ask"should we not infirm dr Bhagat..does he not have the right to know..."??dr Pooja just hung her head...as dr Ashutosh signalled to nidhi to dial...

"Evening sir..me dr nidhi..sir could ya plz come to Taj room no.113..plz its v urgent...jee he s also here. ."and nodded...Pooja's past was on the way...

Dr Bhagat pulled out his car keys n drove ..his mind wondering what myst have happened..why did nidhi n ashutosh want him..that too in a hotel???

Advit cried"mommm."and dr Pooja rushed in helping him to rush to the wash room ...as he got sick..and she washed his face..kissing him...my baby...

The bell of the suite rang and as Ashutosh opened the door...dr Bhagat stood there..with a question in his eyes...Ashutosh spoke in a balanced voice .."go in Bhagat...u are needed"!it seemed dr Bhagat had a sixth sense as he saw dr Nidhi emerge..n ge walked in..as Ash n nidhi stood on the doorway...

Bhagat looked at Pooja..n almost froze seeing her carrying the boy in her arms...he stood for a few seconds n then moved to ger holding the child in his ..n as Advit opened his eyes n looked at him..n then at Pooja...he smiled.as dr Bhagat..gave him a deep look n said"yes son..its me ...your dad..."and Dr Pooja couldn't control her tears...

On the doorway..nidhi had a broad smile but her eyes could not stop the incessant tears..as she tugged at the curtain...n Ashutosh pulled her to him..wordlessly..hugging her..n both feeling a deep joy n a cryshing sense of misery at the sametime...a moment when someone else's joy n completeness made them so acutely aware of their sorrow n incompleteness!

.LOVE U BAWA N ALL FRIENDS

Chapter Seventy nine...

Koshishein...

"I am sure..Advit is in the safest possible hands..we d leave now..call us if there is any issue Bhagat..n Pooja"said dr Ashutosh as he shook hands with dr Bhagat and came out with Nidhi..explaining to her"Advit d be fine..its the adults whom i am worried about.."

Nidhi smiled in a sad sort of a way..n replied "shayad Advit ki taqleef dono ke beech ki dooriyaan mita de..apne bachche ko taqleef mein dekhna hur kisi ko hila deta hoga..sochne pe majboor ker deta hoga..nahi"??she looked at Ashutosh who seemed to nod..as he drove on..

"Arre waah..bus khana intezaar kar raha tha tum dono ka..."said baba as Ashu Nidhi entered..and said"just 5 minutes baba..bus abhi aaye"!!

As the family sat,nidhi shared how dr Bhagat n pooja had finally met.

And they hoped it d be for ever..baba smiled as ge scratched his beard n said"beta...mohabbat woh sheh hai jusqi shiddat waqt aur taqleef ke saath badhti hai..zuroor unke saath bhi yehi hoga..aaj tum dono ne bada hi nek kaam kiya..jo unhe mila diya. .i am sure agar khuda hai..to woh tumhari nekdili ka sila tumhe zuroor dega.."!Nidhi looked at Ashutosh who was looking at his cell..n then spoke with a sunshine smile"bhai Rohan waapas aa gaya hai apne Europe tour se..kal milne bula raha hai..Embassy mein..haan kar doon"??and nidhi pouted"aapko time hoga"??and Ashutosh smiled"tumhare liye ho na ho..Rohan ke liye to zuroor hoga..woh na hota..to hum bhi na hote..."!!and baba agreed in unison..seeing green shoots of joy in his children...

Advit was looking at his dad..dr Bhagat as he lay in the bed..n Dr Bhagat administered medicines with juice to him n then as Advit tried to speak..Dr Bhagat caressed his hair n said"sleep..you need rest..when you feel better..we d talk everything you wish to..so jao ab..i mean sleep"Advit smiled n whispered"i know hindi..kaafi kuch..mom bolti hain kabhi kabhi.."and Dr Bhagat smiled as he patted his suddenly found son to sleep...while Dr Pooja got up..n came to the sitting room..n looked around..

It had been 12 years nearly..the house they had lived in together ..was different ..their home had been a small flat with a lawn..Pooja closed her eyes to recall the lilies in the garden...

Dr Bhagat came out into the drawing room..Pooja wasn't there..he looked around ..n then walked towards the kitchen..as he stood behind the door..he saw his estranged wife trying to locate the ingredients for a mid night snack...

Pooja still remembered how they used to keep tea leaves sugar..biscuits and she smiled to herself as she could make everything. .hot tea ..n bread butter..and as she emerged..Dr Bhagat looked at her n said"bhooli nahi tum chaai peena aadhi raat ko..."?n pooja answered "Chai peete ho tum abhi bhi..hai na"??and he took a cup n a bread...and his eyes had that burning question in them..as Pooja looked at him n sighed...Dr Bhagat said"poori raat padi hai..i can wait..."!

Pooja looked at the skies from the window n said"jaante ho..US jaa ke iraada nahi badla tha maine..pur jab gayi clinic mein for the abortion...i dunno kya hua mujhe...buss ..i felt ki yehi baby tha mera dost..mera companion..mera sab kuch..i couldnt kill it...and iam glad i didn't. Itne barson mein..yehi to raha hai mere saath..nahi to...anyways..its been so long...but now that you know of him...i dunno..."!Bhagat gulped "dunno what??u r scared..that ..i would claim Advit..."and Pooja looked at him..her eyes filled with tears...as Bhagat came close ..and stood facing Pooja..."Pooja..its been 12 years...our life has moved on..but kuch hai jo adhoora hai..kuch kami si rahti hai..shaayad tumhe bhi lagti hogi koi khalish si..."and as he looked at Pooja..she cleared her throat.."jaante ho..Advit bilkul tumhare jaisa hai..intelligent..sharp..n very mature.."!Dr Bhagat smiled n said ..."Pooja..we have both made mustakes...but do you feel..Advit ki khatir

..we should give ourselves another chance...a second innings"??and Pooja kept looking at him..closing her eyes n looking away...as Bhagat put his arm around her ..tentatively..but she crumpled...against him..giving way to the emotions she had held back for almost 12 years...

Their second innings had begun!

It had been nearly a week since Dr Pooja n dr Bhagat had met..n were staying together..their colleagues n friends were more than pleased..though no one knew if they were truly united..but that was something v personal..but yes Advit seemed happy n had recovered..n as Ashutosh told Sudhir..there was no chasm that love n togetherness could not fill..and he himself had smiled as Sudhir had patted him ...n they had parted..

******

"Nidhi..kya kar rahi ho tum"??it was dr Ashutosh who asked nidhi..as she sat doing some embroidery with green n cream threads..Dr Ashutosh lay back as nidhi kept her stuff n came .."kya bana rahi ho..."??and she smiled"kuch khaas nahi..cushion covers hain.."!Ashutosh looked at her..as she smiled"mann lagta hai..i was always very fond of embroidery..painting.."!Dr Ashutosh caressed her n asked"thakti nahi ho tum"??Nidhi put her head down n said"sach kahoon..to itta kaam karna chahti hoon ki thak ke so jaaoon..kuch sochne ka waqt hi na ho..."!Ashutosh didn't say anything ..just switched off the light n patted nidhi to sleep...

***********

"Dr Ashutosh what is this"???it was a slightly agitated Nidhi who entered the cabin..waving a print out she said"yeh kya hai??a 3 day conference at Kolkata..aur aapne mujhe bhejne ka faisla liya.."!Ashutosh nodded "to galat kya kiya..you are our paediatrician aur its a paediatricians' conference hai..it d be a very good exposure..next time forwign conference mei jaaogi..so start packing..aur paper prepare karna shuru kar do..tropical diseases in kids..i think..what do u say"??nidhi looked at him n kept the invite as she said"i think..ki mujhe nahi jaana..i dont want to go..n thats it.buss "!and she was gone..

Ashutosh scratched his beard like baba did n thought a while...yes indeed it was a fact that he had wanted nidhi to travel..to excel at academics ..to make new friends..he wanted her to be busy...n free of depression n negative thoughts..but he knew her long enough to know that this was not going to be easy...He sighed ..as he looked at his watch..it was time for the last round..

***********

"Baba nidhi kahaan hai..."?asked Dr Ashutosh as he looked in the drawing room...n the bedroom..Baba took a deep breath.."dekh..jaake teri study me kaam kar rahi hai kych..per pareshaan si hai..maine poocha to kuch kaha nahi..per..kya baat hai beta"??Ashutosh sighed n explained..as baba nodded "samajhta hoon beta..tera effort to achcha hai..per i dont think she wants to go..."!

Ashutosh went into his study Nidhi ws sitting completely absorbed working on her paper.."Kalazar in kids of eastern India:observations n remedies"Ashutosh smiled n retraced his steps quietly ..just as he reached the door..nidhi pouted"aap kaam karte hain to main aise chup chaap chali jaati hoon kya"??and he came up..."batao kya karoon..sar dabaaoon ya..coffee "??nidhi shook her head..n said "kuch nahi ..bus khaana..jaldi se..lemme just finish this..then i have to finish my cushions"!Ashutosh raised his eyebrow and came out.."kaka..khana"and as he entered the bathroom with his clothes that were laid on the bed as always..he called out "nidhi...nidhi..."and nidhi entered "kya hua"??and she knocked the bathroom..n as she entered..dr Ashutosh held her tight..."kya..kya kar rahe hain app"!!and He rubbed his beard to her neck.."tumhara mood theek jarne ki koshish kar raha hoon...come for a shower...aao..come i say"!and nidhi couldnt resist...as they both stood under the light shower..Ashutosh holding her n asking softly:"itta gussa..itti narazgi "??she didnt say anything just came closer..as Ashutosh touched her waist..and she put her arms around his neck...surrenderung herself to him as always...completely n fully...

It was mych later that nidhi lay next to him..n said"thursday se conference hai..4 din aapke bina..i really dont wish to go...not alone..plzzz"!Dr ashutosh smiled n said"tum hi batao..hiw can i go..hospital hai na jaan...aur afterall you are an independent Dr..you need your own place under the sun..main chata hoon..sab tumhe tumhare naam se..tumhare kaam se jaane..main nahi chahta ki jaise ek darakht ke neeche koi phool nahi khilta..tum bhi stunted raho..mere saath..no nidhi..no.."!Nidhi was looking at him with awe n respect once more...he did not cease to surprise her ever..but then she put her head onto his chest...n said"lekin..is ped ki chaaya ke bina..main jal jaaoongi..zindagi ki tapti dopahar seh nahi paaoongi...aapke saath ke bina..."and then turning into a kid again she pouted"amd kolkata..me agar main kho gayi to..kidnap ho gayi to??kisi bangla bhadrapurush ko pasand aa gayi to"??and dr Ashutosh kept looking at her n then kissing her he said..."kaafi shaitaani ho gayi..ab so jaao..koi excuse nahi chalegi..samjhi.."!and nidhi pouted..n muttered "dr Hardstone "!!

Chapter Eighty...

main yahaan,, tum wahaan...

Nidhi had been arranging dr Ashutosh's wardrobe till late night while he had been working on her hotel n travel bookings..it was finally at 11 p.m.that she finished n he smiled"ho gaya..mera to sab done..you are going to stay at ITC SONARA..conference is at Taj..which is about 2 km away..but this is a better place..the best in calcutta..aur cab bhi fix ker di hai for 247..shopping to jaaogi hi..aur sight seeing etc..in case you dont wish to go with the other doctors..waise ho sakta hai koi dost ban jaaye..kyun"??Nidhi didn't reply but held his kurta sleeve"idhar dhyaan deejiye..aapke chaar din ke suits shirt..night suits udhar hain..aur most importantly hankeys n underwears..samajh gaye.."?n Ashutosh smiled"dont worry ..itte baras sab akele hi manage karta tha..to kya phir nahi kar sakta...i mean just four days.."he held nidhi by her shoulders ..n looking into her eyes said"Nidhi..main tumhara future banana chahta hoon...i want you to excel..jab tak meri umr mei pahuncho..to one of the best paediatrician ho..."Nidhi didn't say anything ..just kept looking into his eyes..trying to find the remanants of that dream that she had seen..n he too had begun to share it when it was shattered...into irreparable splinters..

Nidhi yawned but said"abhi aayi.."n went to baba n kaka.

"Kaka..kitchen ka sab kuch maine top up jar diya hai..yeh phone no.hain Armaanji ke liye parson pizza mangwa dejiyega..friday ko pizza like karte hain..aur mixie mei masala maine grind ker ke freeze ker diya hai.."and as Kaka smiled n said"tu ja beti..main sab sambhal loonga..tere se pehle sab karta hi tha..bus tu ne bigaad diya mujhe.."!Nidhi smiled n looked at baba relaxed in the rocking chair.."baba..kaka ko sab samjha diya hai..ghar ke kharche ke rupai kaka ke paas hain..aur most importantly yeh aap ki medicines..sab sorted out hain..but roz kha ke mujhe whassap karenge..nahi to buss..."baba laughed.."nahi to kya..nai bhi to sunoo"n nidhi just hugged baba..as he smiled"dekh to..do senior neurosurgeons ko ek intern manage kar rahi hai"!!and nidhi pouted"main intern nahi dr hoon ab..waise i wish intrn hi rehti..kum se kum door to nahi haana padta unse..."n bit her tongue as baba..her friend n confidant smiled n got up ..caressing her hair..he asked"Ashu ki chinta hai..ya apni.."??nidhi lowered her eyelids n whispered "dono ki.."baba patted n said"absence makes the heart grow fonder...jaa ab so ja..kal kab ki flight hai"??"2 baje ki baba..hospital se hi jaaoongi.."!n nidhi walked back into her bed room..dr Ashutosh was standing by the window..he looked up n remarked"arre maine socha tha coffee laogi..bhool gai"??Nidhi turned"bus do minute.."and returned with a hot large coffee in her favourite hand painted mug!

Ashutosh took a long sip n handed over the mug to her..as she sat close to him.."kal se kaka bana denge coffee..."but Ashutosh smiled n said"na..coffee ka maza to tumhare sath hi hai..tum aaogi to banana.."and kissed her lightly on the lips..as nidhi responded with her lips opening up..but Ashutosh withdrew..n pecked hr nose"so jaao..kal will be a long day..pack ker liya sab kuch.."??Nidhi nodded"yes saris..sandles..credit card..money .."Ashutosh got up n opened hus wallet n gave her some more cash ..keep this also..n do whatever you wish to..hotel shop hai bahut achchi..shop from there..Economics nahi sochna..samjhi"??Nidhi smiled as they came to bed and Ashutosh pulled her to his chest ...n whispered"yes..tumhare bina neend shyad na aaye..but chalo kabhi insomnia bhi achcha hai..kuch padhoonga.."Nidhi looked at his eyes caressing his beard"main padhne nahi deti ..aapko"??and he drew ger closer n said"tum hoti ho to kitaabon ki taraf dhyaan hi nahi jaata..bus surgical researches oadh oaata hoon..kisi tarah se..warna to..."and rest was lost in a moment in which the two just looked into each others eyes...eyes that had love n apprehension of being apart for 4 days!!Nidhi hugged him tight..putting her leg rightfully across his as she snuggled in his hug and slept off...

"Achcha baba..chalti hoon..ab monday dopahar ko miloongi..pranam kaka"!baba smiled as kaka gave nidhi dahi cheeni and Dr Ashutosh who folded his paperb got up to pick the suitcase commented"monday dopahar kaise??hospital nahi aaogi kya?shaam ko aana ghar.."n baba laughed as nidhi smiled n reminded"jee nahi..pehle ghar aake baba ko mishti dahi doongi ..tab kgh..waise bhi airport se pehle to ghar hi aataa hai na"??And Ashutosh seemed to give up..as the two left..with nidhi reminding kaka"kska plz zara dekhiyega inhe.."!and Ashutosh pulling her by the elbow.."chalo ab..itta bada hospital chalaata hoon..kya apni wardrobe nahi manage ker sakta"??Nidhi smiled with that twonkle of naughtiness "ker to sakte hain...per...kahin kgh mei wardrobe malfunction na ho jaaye"!!😉😆😉!!Ashutosh smirked"very funny..ab jaaiye apne wards mrin..i have a v busy day..aur haan meeting se pehle mil lena..then its the no entry light..Rohan drop ker ayega tumhe"!Nidhi gaped at him n then her jaw dropped"matlab aap nahi aayenge mujhe see off karne..."??Ashutosh did not respond but said"kal Rohan se baat ho gayi thi meri..woh free hai..you see i am very busy.."and nidhi curbed her wish to cry as she said"haan..time to hai nahi aapke paas ..mere liye..jaaiye kariye apni meeting.."and she was gone as Ashutosh stood there smiling and shaking his head...as his peon came to take his bag n stetho...

Nidhi had a busy time in the wards as she checked the kids,made the notings n explained things to Dr Neha..her intern. It was at 11.50 that as she came to hr cabin..she was almost blinded by the collision with her head hitting the familiar chest..n those strong arm steadying her...sainyaan...

"Tumhare paas hi aa raha tha..chalo .."and he took her into the cabin..holding her elbow wwith the head nurse who passed by giving a loving smile to nidhi. ..

"Lo have a sandwich.."he gave her one from the tray of snacks in his cabin n then passed the cup of tea.."lo..aur theek se rehna..be thorough with ur paper presentation. .KGH should be proud of you..you have indeed chosen a good topic..bcoz this generation doesnt know much of kalazar though its still a deadly infection..."Nidhi smiled n opened her mouth to say"aap bhi aate to..."Dr Ashutosh interrupted "tum janti ho..you have yo understand how busy i am..chaah ke bhi possible nahi ho paata...bye then..go n do me proud"!!and nidhi nodded like a high school girl before the principal...thats how it seemed..except that her dean was also the man she loved...with whom she shared her bed...who knew all about her mind body n soul...Ashutosh patted her..n just as she was going to hug him ...there was a knock..n Ashutosh sighed"drs...there is a meeting"and tapped her cheek as Nidhi walked out..waving to him..with a lump in her throat...!

"Ab nidhiji..aisa bhi koi aap south pole pe nahi jaa rahi..calcutta hi to hai..aur dr Ashutosh koi unemplyed aashiq to hain nahi ki chale aayenge gaate hue ...SAAT SAMUNDAR PAAR MAIN TERE PEECHE PEECHE AA GAYA be practical"!and Nidhi made a face "Rohan tim unke wakil ho ya mere dost..yeh decide ker lo"!and Rohan quipped"pata hai na kya nidhiji..aap laskiyon ko..dukhi rehne ke bahaane chahiye..woh Anjiji isliye dukhi rehti hain ki dr Ranganath unhe akele kahi jaane nahi dete..aap isliye roti ho kyunki aapko dr Ashutosh akele confer ence ko bhej rahe hain...aur yeh bhi to socho..aapke bina woh bhi to lonely honge..kaunsa woh kisi pole dance party mein jaayenge.."!Nidhi looked wide eyed..trying to imagine a suited booted dr Hardstone in a polee dance party..being wooed by a skimpily clad dancer...as Rohan teased"waise come to think of it..idea bura nahi hai..weekend bhi hai..biwi bhi nahi hai..woh kya kehte hain..MAUQUA BHI HAI ..DASTOOR BHI HAI..."and as Nidhi pouted..Rohan mocked"ohhho nidhiji kabhi to joke samjha karoye..dr Ashutosh jaayenge night club..to dancer ko brain haemorrhage ho jayega"!!and ginally the rwo friendslaughed as nidhi waved n moved to the security check...As Rohan whassaped dr Ashutosh "nidhiji gone safely"!and as Ashutosh heard his cell beep..he halted for a fraction n read..smiled n replied"thanks"!and proceeded with the meeting...

The plane ran on the runway..as nidhi closed her eyes missing dr Ashutosh like never before..her instincts telling her to run n hug him...but she sighed n sat on...her heart thirsting for him..her eyes yearning to have a look of those deep brooding eyes n her skin scorching for that touch...

Nidhi sighed as she settled to the thought of four days without dr Ashutosh! !

Nidhi landed at Kolkata at 4.30 in the evening and was greeted outside by a cab from ITC sonara with a placard DR NIDHI ASHUTOSH from Lucknow and she smiled st the thought that dr Ashutosh had indeed arranged n fixed the final details for her..if only he could gave come..but then its not easy for a dean..uneasy lies the head that wears the crown!

Nidhi's thoughts were ruptured as the driver showed her the old Howrah bridge while they crossed the new vidyasagar bridge to pull up at the porch of ITC SONARA.

Nidhi did the check in formalities and recalled the time when she had been to Bombay alone for the conference before their wedding..that was the only time she had checked into a hotel alone...but then she was a confident young lady and a dr..now an MD!!

Nidhi settled in her "pool facing superior charm view room"..not quite as luxorious or big as the suites she had stayed with Dr Ashutosh but still v beautiful and big for her alone...she hung her saris ..informed the conference organisers ..shed reach on time ..n then called home ..dr Ashutosh had not replied to her whasapp. .probably he was still in meeting or surgery..

Baba took the call n informed that Ashu would be late..there was an emergency and as Nidhi talked to him..n told all about the room..n reminded him about dinner n medicines,baba spoke"beta humari hi fiqr karti rahegi ki khud bhi kuch khayegi"??and nidhi smiled as she hung up..saying"woh aayenge to bata deejiyega ki mai theek hoon"!

She ordered a sandwich and brewed coffee..and settled to watch the news..as she bit into the sandwich..the thoughts of dr Ashutosh engulfed her...the coffee that she d normally share was to be taken by her alone...she sighed as she took out her gown n went for a bath..carrying her cell..what if he called!!

As nidhi came out of the shower n was drying her hair..the cell buzzed n she knew it was him.."jee..aap aa gaye..night suit nikala..wahi oopar hai..suit drycleaning box me daal deejiyega..aur jaaiye khaana..."Ashutosh smiled n said"nidhi..nidhi..i am fine..khana kha liya hai maine..tum kaisi ho..settle kiya.."??Nidhi told him everything..almost like a running commentary..n then bit her tongue"aap bore to nahi ho gaye..."?n he laughed.."nahi..tum se baat ker ke laga..ki tum bus yahi ho..paas mere.."and then added"achcha ab apna presentation revise kar lo..aur laptop charge kar lena..ok"??and nidhi nodded...as she said"aapke bina neend to aane se rahi..

Aaj main bhi padhoongi ..aapki tarah"!!and ashutosh smiled with a lump in his throat..as nidhi kissed the phone..n came to the large empty bed...with her presentation in front of her but her mind fully occupied by the one n only Dr Ashutosh! !

Dr Ashutosh closed his book on spinal lymphoma and its surgery and looked at his watch..it was 1.30..hopefully nidhi was asleep...he yawned and stretched himself as he came to his bed...their bed for the last 18 months..but today he was alone...and he had almost forgotten what it was like to be alone..A girl 18 years his junior..in 18 months had conquered his home heart..senses n most importantly his soul..he felt incomplete without her..he gazed at their selfie..taken a week after marriage..and then he thought of the months there after..how life had changed..his loneliness had been slowly conquered by nidhi's love..her presence had a deep inpact in the house..it had become a happy home..n yes she was like the air he breathed..he did not bring flowers or valentines day gifts for her but he was uncomfortable without her..almost asphyxiated. .Ashutosh smiled n then thought wgat nidhi must be thinking...was she studying..he hoped she d be busy..that was probably tge only way to draw her out of the depression...what had been lost could never be regained probably..but their love was enough to keep them happy...he hoped that..he knew that..

Ashu turned on his side n stretched his hand on nidhi's side of the bed..recalling her feel..how unsure ge had felt on that night when he had returned from Goa..n claimed her ..now there had been so many times..n yet he yearned for her...n strangely he never was ashamed of it..yes she was much younger to him..but the union fulfilled both of them..He smiled as he recalled how at times she d unabashedly come into his lap while he d be studying and would simply say.."make love to me ..plz.."and he loved her for her honesty..her forthrightness ..and he almost could feel her blushes as she would hide ger face in his chest..or cover her modesty. ..till he would uncover her..n explore beyond all imaginable limits...

And yet what Ashutosh was missing tonight was not sex..but the simple presence of nidhi on his chest...how she d just settle on him ..and he recalled how during her brief pregnancy she d not be comfortable in that position so she d simply turn hold his tee ..n drift into sleep...

Ashutosh had a lump in his throat...he closed his eyes..not wanting to revise that sad chspter if their life...but then did it need to be revised ??he had hardly forgotten even a second of that period ...of that impending joy that Mallika had snatched from them...Ashu shut his eyes...n slowly all thoughts dissolved into nothingness as Nidhi emerged in his eyes..nishi sleeping..dressing..n then saying "uthiye na..kitti der ho gayi..hospital nahi jaana kya"??

Ashutosh woke up with a start..it was 7.15 n his cell was ringing...it was nidhi ..his alarm clock!

"Uthiye...suit tanga hai..baki sab second shelf pe hai..polish shoe rack ke left me hai..aur plz nashta kar je jaaiyega...soye the na aap"??Ashu replied"hmm der se neend aayi per khuli tumhare phone se hi..tum soyi.."??nidhi nodded n said"haan..per mushkil hui bahut..."Ashutosh asked"jaldi ready ho jao..tumhara presentation kab hai.."??nidhi smiled"arre i am a jr paediatrician. .koi schedule nahi hai mera..aaj to dr Nathani ki talk hai..u know na AIIMS se hain"!Ashutosh added"haan ..i know him..chaar saal junior tha...achcha ab ready ho jao..n have breakfast n go..ITC sonara ki chaat platter famous hai..khana ..ok"??and nidhi refused"aapkebina..chaat ka maza nahi.."!and she kept the cell...as Ashutosh got up..n opened the wardrobe. .his gaze falling on nidhi's section..n his fingers grazing her clothes..to feel her..she who was the life of his home..the music if his soul..

Chapter Eighty one...

Kaun aaya ki nigahon mein chamak...

Nidhi chose to wear a light greeen almost pastel dhaani sari with a printed bluse ..she tied her long hair into a loose bun and as she was tying it she smiled recalling how dr Ashutosh would pull out the pins n let her hair fall as soon as he reached home..he hated the bun..but respected the fact that it looked v tidy n dignified!she wore a semiprecious jade tops..one of the many that dr Ashutosh had got for her soon after marriage,having taken her laptop ,purse n cell she seemed set to leave..she halted for a minute ..took out her husband's photo..which was always with her in her purse and looked at him..as if asking him if she was fine..n then smiling ..she put it to her eyes n kept it back..as her sacred most treasure...

After a frugal breakfast from the vast buffet Nidhi emerged n her cab was waiting..the cabbie ,a young bengali Bhabooti..knew every place in kolkata n chattered his way along ..telling her "didi...didi bula sakta hoon na aapko...didi kolkata mein distance kuch maane nahi..time dekhna podta hai!Taj bengal only 2 km away but 30 mins lagega..trofffic itta jaasti hai"!and nidhi chatted along..as she was awestruck by the old tram n the modern metro running almost parallel!such was kolkata..the high fashion park Street n the middle class Garia ghat..where nidhi was planning to shop..but then she suddenly recalled dr Ashutosh's warning n quickly revised her notes!

She emerged at the magnificent Taj Bengal at sharp 9.40...there were still 20 minutes to go..but she went in to the lobby n asked for the registration desk.

She registered herself got her i card and waited in the lobby..her mind n heart in Lucknow..what must dr Ashutosh be doing!she wasapped "at Taj..registration done"and he got back "take care ..going for surgery"!and she sighed knowing that now he d be incommunicado for hours...she knew once inside the OT he thought of nothing n no one except the patient...that is what made him the best neurosurgeon in the country..probably the whole world..

Her thoughts were interrupted by a group of drs of various age groups..most of them her own age but a few senior entered the lobby from the restaurant. .and they smiled at her..knowing she was one of them..from her i card!

Nidhi moved n inteoduced herself as "dr Nidhi Ashutosh from KGH lucknow"and the others introduced themselves..they were actually allfrom various hospitals of Delhi and thus were hanging out together. .soon many others came and at sharp 10 they were ushed into the Durbaar hall for the inaugural address by dr Pudir ..a renowned paediatrician of Pune.

Nidhi listened attentively to his talk which was more about medicio legal scenario n how should the drs defend themselves..something that she abhorred...and as she had a strong urge to yawn n sleep..she could feel a senior dr at the dias looking straight at her..with a kind smile coming from his eyes onto his lips!!

Nidhi tried her best to focus on the talk that was like a tranquilliser to her but she finally saw some activity as the regime of the conference was given out.

heR talk was tomorrow ie friday at 7 pm.today n tomorrow lunch dinner were with the drs at Taj..the conference venue.Saturday was shopping in the first half n a talk about Haemophilia in infants in the evening.Nidhi was v interested in that n then sunday sughtseeing in groups ..families wrre welcome!she sighed..wish she could take the flight back on saturday..she could give dr Ashutosh a big surprise on saturday...n he d hug her n say"nidhi yeh kuch zyaada nahi ho gaya"!!but then what if he was angry..if he yelled or worse still went into one of his silent sullen moods!!He had said"go n do me proud"!she had to stay n make her mark..she could never fail him..never ever!

She focussed on the new speaker a young dr Goyal from MAMC DELHI who discussed "PRE NATAL AIDS"Nidhi was listening spell bound to the talk..and even asked questions which were deeply appreciated by the other doctors ..

It was finally at 1 that dr Nathani was invited to speak on the topic "clinical assessment a must for paediatricians"!

Nidhi was v intruigued at the topic ..it was something that nidhi seemed to agree from her heart!

To her surprise the dr who had been smiling at her got up to a thundering applauae..he was none other than dr Nathani.Nidhi stood up with other drs n clapped..

Nidhi was mesmerised at the way dr Nathani unfolded his thoughts ..he talked of how unsure or commercially driven paediatricians troubled children by refering forr unnecessary blood tests..he talked of cases n showed slides to bring home the point that that for a paediatrician, clinical diagnosis was a pre requisite!

It seemed time had flown ..when the secy IMA got up to remind dr Nathani..n he laughed"well sorry friends..time for lunch..n id continue to bore you in the afternoon session"and nidhi clapped loudly as she stood up n almost shouted "fabulous sir..you were mindblowing"!!only to feel awkward as the other sedate drs glared at her...but dr Nathani smiled n showed a thums up ..nidhi heaved a sigh of relief!!

Dr Ashutosh emerged from his surgery n went to the canteen. . feeling famished. He took some curd n mix veg and his eyes fell on french fries n burger and he thought of nidhi...had she eaten??was she ok??He looked at his cell..no whasapp for two hrs which showed that the conference must be an absorbing one otherwise he would have been flooded with at least 20 messages full of emoticons..he sighed as he took the food n began to eat..not whasapping to nidhi ..he thought to himself..he had to let her grow..grow out if his shadow..his over powering presence..and then shed be back in 3 days..just three more days!

Ashutosh sighed..he didn't feel like eating much but averse to wastage of food he finished what he has taken!

Then he settled with his cell..trying to find something...just when there was a call from dr Bhagat!

"Oh hi Bhagat..how are you.."?Dr Bhagat answered"we are fine..couldn't go to calcutta bcoz have to work to get Advit into a school..heard dr nidhi has gone..aap nahi gaye"??Ashutosh smiled n then the conversation continued..ending with Ashutosh saying"thanks Bhagat..i d be v grateful to you.."!and walked to the wards...just as his cell buzzed "khaana khaaya aapne?"😛and he wrote back"haan...aur tumne.."??and there was a glurry of "miss u n all such messages that he had secretly been waiting for..."!!

He smiled..n walked on!

**************

"Hullo sir ..your talk was..i mean is absolutely fantastic..i mean so true..so ethical..n makes a lot of medical sense too"!it was an excited nidhi rattling off to dr Nathani as they were introduced at lunch.Dr Nathani thanked her n queried"Nidhi..Ashutosh...are you..related to THE DR ASHUTOSH "?nidhi smiled..she had been expecting this question n said proudly "yes sir..I am his wife.."!Dr Nathani stood back for a moment..if he was shocked ..he concealed it very well...n extended his hand to nidhi.."plz convey my regards to the great man..he was our senior in college..n a vvv helpful one..but hum sab darte they unse.."nidhi smiled"sir abhi bhi sab darte hain unse"!!and the two laughed as Dr Nathani said"i read ..u r putting up a presentation on Kalazar..v insightful..you know even today thousands of kids die of it in eastern india.."Nidhi suddenly felt rlated n as dr Nathani moved on she returned to her cell..whasapping everything to dr Ashutosh! !

After lunch dr Nathani continued with his lecture and it was at 5 that the conference was over for the day and the drs were taken to the projector room to be shown a film on the great dr turned politician Dr BIDHAN CHANDRA ROY..as the film reached its end it said"in memory of dr BCROY.the govt has set up an award for medical excellence and the drs who have got this award are..."there were 7 names ..with DR ASHUTOSH being on no.4!nidhi was overwhelmed...she had to talk to him...now..she came out..n while the others sat in the restaurant. .she came out to the lobby n dialled the no. That was engraved on her heart...

"YaayyyI love you..."dr Ashutosh was a lil shocked at this sudden rediscovery 18 months after a v happy marriage n he smiled ..but changed the ear...rubbing the left ear to normalcy.."kya hua achanak..."and nidhi trying to control her excitement narrated"you know abhi we were shown a film on the Great dr BC roy..aur usme BC ROY AWARDEES me aapka naam tha..i felt so so sooo proud"!!and she was ready to dance had dr Ashutosh not reminded her"nidhi aaraam se..shayad tum abhi bhi conference me ho..dekho drs honge aas paas..."and nidhi held her ears!!but then as Ashutosh asked about her evening plan..she sighed"bus hotel..i dont want to go anywhere.."Ashutosh suggested a boat ride on Hooghly..with friends but she pouted "nooo..aapke bina nahi..bus conference aur waapas...haan Gariahaat jaaongi shopping"!she bit her tongue..as Ashutosh flared"tum wahaan nahi jaaogi..its a labyrinth..kho jaaogi..ya ...whatever bus tum nahi jaogi..emporium jaao ya Park street ya hotel shop..."nidhi argued"aap kehte hain..i should be independent. .free...bolo"??Ashutosh was in no mood to relent"agar poora feminism gariya haat jaane ka naam hai..to yes i am an MCP..MALE CHAUVINITIC PIG..per tum wahaan nahi jaaogi bus.."n kept the phone...as here nidhi kissed her cell..n whasapped"aapka gussa wallah wallah..itni mohabbat allah allah"!!

Nidhi had dinner with a group of drs from Delhi and they discussed the working conditions n research facilities that Delhi offered and then one of them looked at dr Nidhi n asked"dr nidhi why dont you apply for a job in Delhi..i mean you d certainly get a good one"!nidhi smiled as she replied"i am a dr by chance!!and now that i am..i am v happy where i am..secondly..i am married n my husband n i both love Lucknow...so Lucknow it is..Lucknow for life..but we d try coming to Delhi for a holiday..n then will catch up with you all"!

It was at 9.30 she took leave n took her cab back..as she gave the cabbie 1000 rs ..he said"dr sahib ne ..jinhone book ki thi taxi paisa accont mei transfer kar diya didi.."but nidhi insisted..n was overwhelmed to see the cabbie absolutely floored..she waved n came to her room...as she bathed n changed into her printed cotton gown n satin the bed...thinking of what must be happening at home..she smiled as she dialled the land line and baba it was..she told him all that had happened during the day and then asked all about his dinner n medicines...and then as she was quiet..baba who understood all asked"kya hua..Ashu ki yaad aa rahi hai"??Dr Ashutosh who was listening to ghazals with baba smiled ..as nidhi answered .."haan baba..mann nahi lagta unke bina...buss kya karoon..."and she almost choked yp...as baba pacified "arre meri bahu hoke roti hai??do din ki to baat hai buss...ja ab tv dekh...aur french fries order ker"!

Dr Ashutosh looked at baba ..his eyes grey...as baba sighed"haan thodi lonely hai..i hope..wahi sab na soch rahi ho..."Dr Ashutoshkept quiet n got up..he stood by the window ..n then as if suddenly reaching a decision...dialled his travel agent..n then ITC Sonara kolkata...it was at 10.30 that he dialled nidhi..with a smile in his otherwise serious eyes ..as nidhi pouted"aa gayi biwi ki yaad...padhaai ho gayi..dont worry nahi jaaoongi Gariya haat"!and Ashutosh almost wanted to cuddle her...but just said"thats good..my doc!ab kal ke presentation ki taiyyari karo..socho the questions that ppl can put up..see some difficult case histories..samjhi??"n nidhi asked"buss isiliye phone kiya tha aapne..aur kuch nahi kehna"??and Ashutosh smiled as he held the cell n said"aur kya kahoon...mai to sochta tha tum meri khaamoshiyaan samajhti ho.."and nidhi gulped...as he said"sach to yeh hai that i am also missing you..but bus 2 din ki to baat hai.."n nidhi nodded ..unable to speak..just mustering up enough will to say"so jaaiye ...see you on monday.."but he did not say anything..except dropping a smooch on the cell...that almost shocked nidhi...as she smooched back..but dr Ashutosh said"aansoo mei bheega kiss..thats not fair nidhi"!n nidhi hicupped as her husband said"so jaao..dekhna kal sab tumhare liye clap karenge..my nidhi is the best"!and they hung up...both looking out of their windows ..though separated by more than a 1000 km.they felt they could hear each other's heart beat!

****************

Friday morning..nidhi got up really early went throughthe presentation once again n then got ready...a blue tussar...plain blue with a dark blue blouse n the earrings that dr Ashutosh had given her ..the very first time...just as she was ready to go for breakfast..her cell buzzed n she grabbed it.."i know aap phone karenge..kaise hain aap..soye raat ko"!!and the voice from the other end said"nidhiji...dr Ashutosh kgh mei durbaan thode hi hain ki raat ko jage rahenge..offcourse soye honge..aur kabhi iss bechare kunware dost Rohan ko bhi yaad ker liya kariye"!and nidhi laughed...as the two chatted!

As she was having breakfast She got the call she was waiting for..baba armaan n then Ashutosh talked..wishing her luck..as nidhi reminded Ashu "aaj pizza day hai..armaanji ka..bol deejiyega kaka se"!and Ashutosh smiled n said"keh doonga...aur raat ko der tak OT me rahoonga..late night around 12 baje baat hogi ab..ok"!and nidhi nodded!Ashutosh touched Baba's feet n said "chalta hoon baba..per usse kahiyega nahi...warna paper chode ke airport aa jaayegi"!and baba smiled...as he hummed"yaad kiya dil ne kahaan ho tum.."and Armaan hummed back"pizza ki raat hai..yahaan ho tum"!and baba pulled his ears!

*****************

Nidhi got up to make her presentation at sharp 6 .40 it had 32 slides each explaining the cause..the cycle n remedies of the dreaded kalazar..she could see from the eyes of the senior drs that she had indeed done a good job.

As the applause died down questions came up..n nidhi answered each with elan n comfort..elucidating examples ..from cases...something that was widely appreciated and as she came down the dias at 10..there was a wide applaud and dr Nathani patted her"well done!you will do Dr Ashutosh proud"!

NIdhi checked dr Ashutosh status ..he jad not come on whassap since 1 in the noon..surgeries ufff!!

She decided to have just soup n then bade good night as her colleagues reminded her" tomorrow morning..shopping ..."n she waved...with the paper over...she just wanted to run back to Lucknow. .to dr Ashutosh. ...

As she entered the ITC..the lobby manager met n said"i am sorry dr Nidhi..but there were sudden maintenance issues in your room..so we have shifted you to 201..its a better room.."but nidhi wasn't even listening..she looked a lil irritated ..but the manager explained "mam all your stuff...has been transferred by the ladies at house keeping..i can assure you"

Nidhi took the toom card n went up..she did not want a big room..she d feel even more lonely...she opened the room..it was a huge suite..and she was a lil suspicious as she heard the shower...she quickly retraced her steps..she had probably stepped into the wrong rpom...and just as she was about to turn ..the toilet door opened...and nidhi shut her eyes.."i am sorry..sir"

"SORRY ?KYUN??MUJHE TOWEL MEIN NAHI DEKHA HAI KYA KABHI PEHLE"??there stood Dr Ashutosh in the hotel towel ..his hair wet...and as nidhi looked dazed ..he walked up to her n pulled her...to him"ab phone pe tumhare aansoo bardaasht nahi ho paaye..socha..itta rulaya hai..thoda to khush karna hoga..kyun"??and nidhi let herself be cuddled by him ..but then caressing his wet chest she asked"yeh kuch zyaada nahi ho gaya...Ashutosh "!!

Chapter Eighty two...

Nidhi could hardly believer her eyes and as she put her hands to the bare torso of Dr Ashutosh, he smiled "arrey main hi hoon.."and she held on to him ..as he brought her to the lovely sitting room and said in a typically husband like way "ab chai pilaogi ya nahi"?and nidhi almost ran to find the tea maker as he laughed.."dekho t.v cabinet mei hoga.

Dhyaan se..excitement mei chot nahi laga lena "!and nidhi giggled as she brewed the tea..and he changed into his kurta n pyjama..spotless white and as she gave him the large mug:she said"ek dum bangla bhadrapurush lag rahe hain"!and he sighed n said"Achcha yeh batao ki itne gusse me room se kyun jaa rahi thi"!and nidhi giggled like a girl"woh manager had told..

"!and dr Ashutosh said"woh maine hi usse kaha tha..that its a surprise for my wife"!and then holding her face in his large hands he said"rone kyun lagi thi phone pe..."?and nidhi didn't say anything just took the tea mug and sat in his lap rightfully. .lowering his lips to his..and whispering"aapke bina..raha nahi jaata ab"!and Ashutosh hugged her back...

It was late at night..after a long session of love making that Ashutosh kissed her on the nose n asked"kal ka kya plan hai..going for shopping with your Dr friends"?Nidhi frowned "aapko kaise pata.."and He smiled n teased "arre bhai biwi ho meri sab khabar rakhta hoon.."!and then showed the whassap in which dr Bhagat had sent him the entire schedule!Nidhi rubbed her nose to his and said..chalenge aap...sab aapse kaafi junior hain...i mean bore to nahi ho jaayenge?"and Ashutosh pulled ger to him n said"tum hogi itta kaafi hai"!

Dr Ashutosh pulled his wife by her elbow as she complaint "chunni to odhne deejiye"he was dressed in semi formals a navy blue pants and light blue shirt with no tie while nidhi put on her shaded blue dupatta..it covered the face of her famous husband and he seemed lost as she smiled n removed it from his handsome face...and he smiled n said"chalo..lets have the chaat platter n green tea"and nidhi smiled "what a combo..."Ashutosh replied raising his infanous eyebrow "mere aur tumhare combo ki tarah"!

As they settled and the platter with different type of chaat arrived..and nidhi was amused that the humble golguppa was filled with mishti dahi n called"phochka"!she told"aaa kariye"and pushed a phochka into the world famous neurosurgeon's mouth as he gulped it down..nidhi smacked off the aaloo chaat n then had water"whooosh..hot tha"!!it was after the green tea that they took the cab to Taj Bengal and entered the lobby..Drs were waiting and the moment dr Nathani saw dr Ashutosh. .he came n shook hands "what a pleasure sir..dr nidhi didnt tell me ..you were coming"!Dr Ashutosh smiled n said"i had decided to surprise her"!and a rather nervous coordinator dr Chatterjee asked "sir will you come on the bus..."?Ashutosh raised his eyebrow to ask"are spouses allowed"??and as the dr said yes..he shrugged his shoulders n said"then obviously i d like to..unless you feel i d be a stumbling block in your fun.."as nidhi nudged him to meet her colleagues ..he shook hands politely and boarded the bus choosing to sit on the fifth row with nidhi..and the shopping started!

Nidhi held on to his sleeve as they stopped at the state emporium and drs entered..looking at taant sarees and leather goods .dr Ashutosh pulled a lovely cream n blue with golden border bangla saree ..but nidhi pouted"i dont like taant..."Ashutosh nodded "i know..yeh dadi bua ke liye..take one for shyama aunty also"and nidhi rummaged through the rack till she chose a pink n golden one.

Nidhi was looking at a lovely leather purse shantiniketan one ..n Ashutosh felt it..."beautiful but heavy...clutch bag o..nahi to kandha dukhega"and chose a lovely clutch bag..

It was after an hour of shopping that drs got into the bus again...

Dr Ashutosh whispered to nidhi"evening session je baad i d pick you up..we d go boating in the Hooghly"and nidhi looked at him wide eyed"aap nahi aayenge.."Dr Ashutosh shook his head"this is a paediatrician conference what will i do?waise bhi..i hate when you are stifledbecause of my status"?Nidhi smiled n understood .."but aap bore nahi ho jaayenge akele"??Dr Ashutosh laughed n said"bore hone laga to Gariya haat chala jaaoonga"!!and nidhi pouted!!

Nidhi was trying her best to be focussed on the last lecture of the conference but her thoughts did stray to dr Ashutosh. .what must he be doing? And so when the talk was over she immediately left after saying bye to her colleagues n seniors..and ran out ..Dr Ashutosh was sotting in the lobby,reading on his i pad and as he saw her he stood up "chalein"??and nidhi nodded..and asked"akele kaise kaate itte ghante"?and dr Ashutosh looked at her with that softness that she whipped up in them and said"jisne aadhi zindagi akele kaati ho woh kuch ghante nahi kaat sakta"!and nidhi was suddenly emotionally overwhelmed as she caught his fingers and they walked out...

Ashutosh helped nidhi sit in the traditional bengal house boat..nothing luxurious but with thatch cover and a bangla boatman..and they rowed towards the Howrah bridge..

Ashutosh showed her the landmarks of the City from the boat ..and the hustle n bustle of the bazaars.. .as they crossed under the Howrah bridge and the humid sky finally broke its patience with fast n furious rain..As the couple took refuge under the thatch..they soon realised it leaked pretty badly ..n soon they were soaking wet!

Ashutosh looked at nidhi..her hair dripping as he said"yaad hai tumhe woh baarish..."n nidhi amswered dreamily"pehli baarish bhi koi bhoolta hai kya..."!and they continued the boat ride as the boatman began to sing a typically rabindra sangeet melody ..n nidhi yawned..Dr Ashutosh smiled n said"tumhare music ke tastes bus main nahi tolerate ker pata...kitna loud music like karte ho tum log..your generation iean"!and nidhi inadvertently answered "ach ha yeh classical songs apne bachchon ko sunaiyega..."and then suddenly froze...her lips seeming dry..even in the splattering rain...Ashutosh bit his lip n just held her hand...as she looked away..n closed her eyes..hoping that he would not see her tears..her tears mingled with rain...

*************************

It was a week since they returned from Kolkata and nidhi had been busy in making her cushion covers after the hospital...when she suddenly got up and rushed to the wash room...

Chapter Eighty three...

Yeh kya hua... !!!

Ashutosh was rattled as Nidhi got sick over n over again ..and as she emerged with him holding her;she said nothing ..just drooped on to the bed and said"so jati hoon..i am sure morning d be better..."and as Ashutosh kept her needlework away ,he settled her keeping a close watch..n as she shifted ;he asked"hua kya hai??is there some tension.."nidhi didnt say much just looked away ..but her eyes had tears...Ashu took a deep breath and came up to her and caressed her hair"tension se kuch hoga kya ?bolo? ?Dr Pooja ne kaha hai na..give yourself time...to phir"??and then lifting her face by his finger under the chin ;he asked"do you want to get a test done"?he knew her cycle was a lil overdue...but he didnt want to give her any hopes..he didnt want to give himself any hopes ...Nidhi just clutched his tee and clung to him...like a helpless child..whenever she was vulnerable; dr Ashutosh found it very difficult to bear...he held her..kissing her hair and then whispering "sab theek hoga.."and then got up to get her a zinetac.

Nidhi wafted off to sleep but Ashutosh kept awake..restless in bed..thinking how could peace n joy come to nidhi??Dr Pooja had been meeting her..the second course of hormonal shots had just got over..n now as she said it was just wait n watch...but Ashutosh knew the anxiety levels of nidhi..he was not a man who could pray...he had not mbeen made that way..but he closed his eyes and did make a wish..

A wish for Nidhi's joy..and if that was a baby..then yes a baby..!

As Ashutosh opened his eyes;nidhi was already bathed n dressed and was giving him tea..."dr Pooja se baat ho gayi..she has said to wait for a day more "pouted nidhi ..but then smiled n said"ready ho jaaiye MD ji"!and a concerned Ashutosh asked"are you okay"??i mean subah mein"??Nidhi nodded"i am fine..bus headache hai mild sa..i d be fine"!Ashutosh removed the quilt n got up feeling her throat...n said"aaj OPD ke baat round le ke ghar aa jana..thoda rest lelo..you d be better.."!nidhi kept quiet ..and Ashutosh knew she preffered being in the hospital ..digressed from depression n anxiety...

***********

It was an unusually relaxed day for dr Ashutosh and as he peeped into the OPD nidhi was v busy! He came back and fialled dr Pooja who had set up her own practice at home .."hi Pooja..just wanted to know about nidhi..thoda off colour lag rahi hai..could it be..."!Pooja could sense his reflected agony and anxiety as she answered "sir lets wait for 3 more days..before we go in for a blood test.

The symptoms are indicative but I am not too sure ..

And stress of a test wouldn't do any good.."Ashutosh nodded and kept the cell.Pooja was right..He was going to ring for a coffee when the door opened and nidhi came in with a large flask of tea..as she poured ;he observed her..her eyes seemed swollen .."headache hai abhi bhi"??and nidhi sniffed"naa..almost gone"!and sipped the tea..and then said"aaj bed no.7 bahut better hai..we finally saved him.."Ashutosh smiled understanding the joy of a dr successful in saving a life..patient 7 was a kid of about 6 suffering from acute meningitis. .and nidhi along with other drs had workedv hard indeed...As nidhi yawned;Ashutosh said"round ke baad ghar..main bhi jaldi aa jaaoonga..bus ek simple surgery hai..aaj shaam kuch junk food banao.."!and nidhi laughed"kyun salad sandwiches se mann bhar gaya"??and Ashutosh smiled"dr nidhi..i am a man of consistent habits..mera mann nahi bharta ..bus tumhe khush karne ke liye keh raha tha.."!and she smiled acknowledging the pun in his lines...she knew he would never be tired of her...and she got up ..as he too took off his jacket for surgery ..n then the ring that nidhi had given him after their wedding..as he smiled at the inscription "ASHNI"!yes if they ever had a baby..they d name her Ashni...but what if it d be a boy??no it had to be a girl...Ashu shook his head in his day dream..as nidhi kept looking at him..n quietly came out for the wards...

************

It was nearly the end of the round when she felt a very strong pain at the back of her neck and yawned..maybe she was pulling herself beyond limits..her eyes seemed to burn ..but she checked the last two kids ..made the notings and then emerged;peeping into dr Ashutosh's room..he was back from the surgery but was discussing something important with Dr Gandhi and dr Ranganath.Nidhi moved out...

As she started her car..there was a strong feel of nausea..but she drove on..through the streets ..till suddenly around Hasrat ganj..she seemed to be losing control..she shook her head..blinked her eyes...could not focus at all...n with great difficulty parked the car towards one side..or was it the middle of the toad..her head seemed to spin..n she could barely see anything...she somehow dialled her cell..."suniye..main ..main..i am not well..aap aa jaiye abhi..kuch dikh nahi raha saaf..plzzz..."and as Ashutosh snatched his keys standing in panic..he shouted. ."tum ho kahaan ..nidhi where are you"??but the cell was disconnected...as Ashutosh rushed out...n nidhi lay with her head on the steering wheel..her red merc right in the middle of Hazrat ganj..n an increasing traffic jam!!

Chapter Eighty four...

Dr. Hardstone n his dad !!!

Dr Ashutosh's mind seemed to have frozen ..where was nidhi..n how could he reach her...as he started the car ..he recalled he could find nidhi on her regular route...surely she took the Hazrat ganj..shahnazaf road to home..he raced throwing caution into the winds..

At Hazrat Ganj crossing as the traffic snarled ,a traffic policeman came forward to knock at the red merc blocking hundreds of cars ..he could see the driver slumping on the steering wheel..the car was locked from inside and there was no way to reach in..but he kept knocking..a few people got down from the car n were agitated.."is she drunk.."?"can't she see"??"who is she..n how do we get her out of the way"??till a good samaritian indicated at the red cross"she seems to be a doctor..look her apron is also there...maybe shes dead tired or unwell..."others seemed to nod and there was louder knocking...

Nidhi seemed to hear distant sounds..n hammers on her head..till at last she made a valiant effort to open her eyes..she could barely see...but it felt as if she was lying in the football field with a sea of humanity around her...she heard"open the door madam..."and though barely coherent and almost completely blind..she lifted her hand to find the lever...somewhere ...n click...yes it turned...as the cop pulled the door open and nidhi was dlumped on the seat..completely unconscious!

Dr Ashutosh couldn't drive his car beyond the entry of Hazrat Ganj..there was a ling queue and as he got down..he had a gut feel .nidhi was around..somewhere around and he made his way through the jam..walking..having parked his BMW on the side..it was about 300 mts away that he could get a glimpse of a red car...he knew it..n he ran..he ran faster than his legs could carry and as he reached the red merc..he stopped dead in his tracks..partly in shock of finding nidhi this way..partly relieved that he had found her...n partly to just catch his breath!

The people were trying to look for nidhi's cell to contact her family..Ashutosh tore throughthe crowd and got to the open door ..crying out "nidhi..."as the traffic cop looked up"aap jaante hain inhe"??and Ashutosh looked tense "husband..i am her husband..dr Ashutosh mathur KGH"!and the people moved a lil away...as Ashutosh got into the car n felt nidhi..she was unconscious and running v high fever..he had to rush her to the hospital..as he started the car..making nidhi lie on the other seat..n waving thanks to the people..he could see a few dazed faces saying"husband...but i thought he was her...dad"!Ashutosh didnt bother ..he just turned to KGH and dialled dr Ranganath "Ranganath. .emergency..nidhi..i think its severe enciphilitis or meningitis. .get the pathologist ready n stretchers n all..i am rushing her...its going to be ...a close shave"!and he hung up..knowing every minute counted...

Dr Ashutosh raced the merc in the morning traffic..swearing..almost at the rickshaws n slow moving traffic..and his left hand felt nidhi..her pulse was very fast...and she seemed to be in some severe pain as she contorted her face..Ashutosh. .the Dr knew symptoms were not good at all as the car screeched to a halt at KGH and just behind snarled a traffic police van..as the inspector jumped out to xonfront Ashutosh "aap...hain kaun"?Ashutosh looked a lil taken aback..he was not used to this most prleople knew who he was.."i am dr Ashutosh "and as Ashu bent in to get nidhi ..and the stretcher waited..the inspector held him n snarled"ek minute dr..aap ne teen traffic light jump ki hain.."!and Dr Ashutosh raised his infamous eyebrow n said"aap dekh rahe hain..meri wife ..she is unconscious and has to be saved..now you can do whatever..you feel like"and helped nidhi ..who was now moaning loudly onto the stretcher and walkd briskly..holding her hand and shouting for the pathologist Dr Swamy who rushed in...

As dr Swamy drew blood samples ,dr Ashutosh said"check for both meningitis n enciphilitis n the strain also..i feel its A type meningitis. .but want to confirm..quick doc"!and then he checked nidhi's eyes ..her pupils ..and her constant moaning..he tried to calm her..but she was incohrent..thats what worried him the most!

He had to take his chances..couldn't wait for the report ..he broke an ampuole of Penidryne and injected her..sitting by the side..as the nurse checked the fever..105!!Ashutosh's brow was furrowed!He needed advice..and dialled dr Nagpal..only to be told by the PA that he was in a long spinal surgery and would not be out before 8 hrs!it would be too late till then...and then suddenly something dawned upon him and he dialled ...

"Baba..bus aap jaldi aaiye KGH..baba i need your diagnosis..nidhi is..seems to be having meningitis A"!and baba dropped his book..he knew what that meant ..he shouted"armaan..hospital chsl abhi...quick.."and then went into his room to pull out his stetho..

Like a batsman needs his own bat..he needed his own stetho!!

Baba walked as fast as his old legs could carry him and he entered the Neurological ward..Ashutosh was pacing up and down.."reports ?do u have them"?ashsaid"not yet baba..but she hasn't responded to Penidryne "!Baba seemed to breathe in fast as he said"come on..let me have a look.."and as he entered..for a moment he felt his geart being wrenched out..to see his daughter in law lying helpless in dire pain..white as the sheets..he collected himself quickly..medical senses taking over everything else..he examined ger eyes..her pulse..n her general condition..n looked up at Ashutosh. .it seems you are right..its A type..the most severe..but how did she get it..we drs are alwats vaccinated against Meningitis. .wasn't she?Ashutosh nodded"she was baba..but she was treating a patient of type A ladt week..n maybe contracted infection. .the problem is if we wait till the confirmation report..it just might be too late..and if we medicate her..there might be a reaction..."Baba looked up..n closed his eyes for a while..Ashutosh knew he was thinking...he opened hus eyes..they had clarity in them.."Ashu

..no time to waste beta..put her on ..woh kya nati drug hai..cobalamycin ka better form.."ashu completed"methylcobalamine"baba nodded..."yes thrice ..every 8 hrs..aur drip se ..what do u suggest..penidryne 10% ya..."??Ashutosh shook his head"no baba..Azithomycin i feel is a better bet..i think we need to go for it..."Baba nodded"yes..ashu..,jab pathologist nahi the..tab bhi ilaaj hota tha..always follow your gut feeling n clinical sense..always"!and Ashutosh nodded as both looked towards the woman..the bridge betwixt theur hearts..the foundation of their home..

It was 12 at night nidhi had been administered her antibiotics..the drip was on but she had not shown any improvement. .the only saving grace was that there had been no deterioration either.

Baba kept sitting in Ashu's chamber taking repeated rounds of the room where nidhi lay..with Ashutosh not leaving her even for a minute..

At about 12.30 Ashutosh walked towards baba with a suggestion in his mind and baba almost at the same time walked towards him..they almost collided but as always in life baba steadied Ashutosh and asked raising the famous mathur eyebrow!Ashutosh looked at him n said..loosening his tie"baba I feel ..looking at her latest scan,we should inject antibiotics in the medulla oblongata..otherwise its going to go down the wire..we might lose her..."Baba held his son's hand n said"ashu i was thinking exactly the same..lets go ahead right now"!and the two proceeded as usual in the same direction..As dr Ashutosh prepared the special syringe that could inject the life saving drug directly into the meninges!It needed dexterity..but nidhi was lucky enough to be attended by two of the best neurosurgeons of the world!Ashutosh held the injection in his hand and then ..he looked at nidhi's face..forlorn..swollen ..he sighed as he understood the danger she was in..n then with his left hand he caressed her cheek..with the back of his hand...n she stirred..her lips seemed to quiver but then only a moan escaped from her lips..as Ashutosh bit his lip and and inserted the needle as nidhi winced ..and he looked at her with eyes that were deep grey!

As he threw the injection,the pathologist entered with nidhi's reports,Ashutosh scanned through them n looked at baba,"we were right baba..its A type..n has spread to the third layer too..but drug doesn't need to be changed"!baba nodded and patted Ashutosh "see i told you..clinical judgement is the best...now lets hope..as we say its between the patient n the drug now"!!and baba walked out to the cabin..while Ashutosh sat clise to nidhi..he knew she had to fight it on her own..but emotional support that could reach her would be very important. .it could make the difference. .

He sat close by caressing her hair..and cheeks and gulping his tears to speak softly"nidhi...nidhi..plz don't give up..you can't give up"!and he seemed to choke...

It was at about 4 in the morning that nidhi seemed to open her eyes n whispered"paani..plz paani"!and dr Ashutosh who was reading her file rushed with some water..n helped her wet her lips through his wet fingers...and as he looked at her eyes trying to decipher if she could see..she whispered.."aapki tie...loosen ho gayi hai.."and Ashutosh smiled as he tightened the knot and sent the nurse to call baba...

Baba arrived..tired n puffed but very astute n alert..he patted nidhi n then put a finger on her lips"no queries..only rest..you see I am the senior doctor..and I am the dad of Dr Hardstone "and a feeble smile came onto nidhi's face!

Chapter Eighty five...

Ghar...

Nidhi had been making slow but steady recovery..it had been 3 days and her fever was now not more than 100,the facial swelling was much less and she was out of danger..baba came to check her everyday and was not ready to have her relieved even though Ashutosh seemed close to agreement. .but Baba was not to be juggled or forced..afterall as he had proclaimed he was Dr Hardstone's dad..

It was the next day at 7.30 in the morning that baba entered with Ashutosh to look at his patient.As he read the papers n Ashu checked the vitals..baba said"move on doc..let me check.after all i am the senior doc"!!and nidhi smiled!

Baba asked "beta..hows the feeling"?and nidhi tried to think and said"much better but headache hai..and i do feel faint n weak"!Drs nodded as Ashutosh said"you need rest for atleast 10 days more..its been a miraculous save..thanks to baba.."!and baba smiled as he patted her hair and said"thanx beta..for getting an old neurosurgeon back into practice"!!Nidhi smiled n asked"so..clinic kholein..KGH mei to...retirement age.."??Baba smiled"naah..i d see only special patients..rest of the time apne pote poti khulaaoonga..dekhna tu..they would come..jab kuch achcha hona hota hai..to sab kuch achcha hi hota hai"!!and nidhi looked at Ashutosh. .their gaze locked with each other...sainyaan!!

"Nidhi..come on..medicine lo..utho..or yeh soup bhi"!it was dr Ashutosh waking a drowsy nidhi in the hospital bed..and as she sat up n took the medicine..she wrinkled her nose on seeing the soup.."i dont like it..koi taste nahi hota.."!Ashutoshcaressed her cheek and said"jaan..soup tasteless nahi hai..meningitis ki wajah se tumhare taste buds affected hain..dheere dheere sab theek ho jaayega"and nidhi nodded..as she had the soup and dr Ashutosh sipped his coffee..and then got up to kiss her forehead.."so jaao..sleep is the best medicine "!nidhi looked at him with tears in her eyes.."main kab jaaongi ghar..i want to be with you.."!Ashutosh looked grim..he knew she hated being admitted but there was no option..till she regained her energy levels.."kal scan hoga..let s assess the condition of meninges ..then wed decide..be a good girl.."Nidhi didn't say much..she was still tired..and just closed her eyes ..as her husband sat by her..holding her hand..caressing her fingers..as she slowly drifted into sleep and he got up..covering her ..n then calling the night nurse on duty.."dr nidhi is still not fully fit..zara dhyaan dena..ok?"and the sister nodded as the dean of KGH walked to his car..leaving his heart with his young wife recuperating from a life threatening disease. .

At home as dr Ashutosh sat to eat..a look at aaloo tamarar n parathe made jhim wince..nidhi loved them..he sighed as he ate..almost tutoring himself..he had to be fot to discharge his duties..yo look after his patients..his hospital and most importantly his Nidhi.."Ashu..kya hua beta"??asked baba..as Ashutosh bit a piece of salad n said"kuch nahi baba..bus nidhi ghar aana chahti hai..lonely feel karti hai..mere ..i mean ghar ke bina.."!baba nodded and added"kal scan je baad decide karna..per agar aa hi jaaye to bhi minimum 1 month rest karna hoga ..to recuperate fully.."Ashutosh nodded..he knew the graph of recovery had to be maintained. .He got up and sauntered into his bedroom..their bedroom that seemed unbearable without nidhi..

Ashutosh lay.

Looking sround ..recalling how she had come into his home..n life..how she had become an inseparable part of him...and then he looked at the first selfie..kussed it ...and switched off the light..clising his eyes to let nidhi conquer his dreams.

"Sir Patient..i mean dr nidhi is ready for the scan"!it was sister padma who informed this to dr Ashutosh as he teadied for the scan and ealked with the radiologist..and as nidhi was wheeled in..ashutosh quickly walked to hold her hand as he helped her settle for the scan..and as she was wheeled in..he waited. .and as the process was completed..nidhi was wheeled out..he smiled at her n said"abhi aataa hoon..report leke..tab tak have dome food..dekho tiffin mei poha hai..kaka ne bheja hai.."nidhi nodded as she was wheeled to her room n dr Ashutosh walked in to have a look at the slides of the scan..

Yes the swelling had gone down.almost completely and there was hardly any sign of inflammation. Ashu rung baba up...and as baba smiled he reminded his son"beta ..main aaoonga ek ghante mein..lets check her clinically before we arrive at any decision"and dr Ashutosh gave a cautious smile.

As he came into nidhi's room..she looked at him ..her eyes asking the question..and Ashutosh answered"shaam tak decide karte hain..abhi kych khao to.."and he opened the tiffin to feed her the lemony poha..n lassi as she asked in between "aapne khaaya"??and he nodded..and added"jaanti ho..main bhi intezaar kar raha hoon tumhare ghar waapas lautne ka..its been nearly two weeks.."nidhi looked at him..his forehead creased with lines of worry..as she held his hand and said"chinta nahi kariye..aap ko chod ke nahi jaa sakti kahin bhi.."!and he cuddled her..just as the nurse entered but with drew and Ashutosh got up a lil self conscious. .as nidhi giggled ..

As baba looked at the plates ..he seemed happy and devlared.."ashu..i feel shes fine ab relieve ho sakti hai.."and as Dr Ashutosh nodded..nidhi almost cried with joy..home sweet home after 2 weeks...

*******

Dr Ashutosh entered the home with nidhi..looking pale n jaded but with a spark in hereyes..as they entered and Ashutosh took her to their bedroom ..with baba saying "dont worry..ek neurosurgeon humesha hai ghar pe..the resident doctor"!and armaan laughed. .hope had reurned to the mathur mansion...

As Ashutosh got khuchdi n dahi for nidhi..she helped herself and smiled"ghar ki khuchdi bhi bhog lag rahi hai..sach kitna miss kiya maine ghar ko...aap to roz aa jaate the ghar. ."and Ashutosh looked at her with deep eyes n said"hmm..roz aa to haata tha ghar..per sach kahoon to ghar ..ghar kahaan lagta tha tymhare bina...ghar to aaj lauta hoon..tumhate saath.."and nidhi just put the plate away n held on to her husband's sleeve...yes they were home ..finally!

Chapter Eighty six...

Sapne sach hue...

Nidhi had been tecovering at home for two weeks and had then joined hospital...Dr Ashutosh was very vigilant about her diet and general condition though was happy that being in the wards took away that emptiness from her eyes!Dr Pooja had stopped her hormonal therapy during meningitis only to start again when nidhi recuperated!Though when one day she knocked n entered Dr Ashutosh's clinic ,he was a lil surprised! "Sir..just wanted to have a word with you..edgeways..without nidhi.."Ashutosh had nodded!pooja continued"somehow i dont feel nidhi is going to conceive..not anytime soon..if it had to happen it should have happened by now..i feel in one month we must stop the medication n leave it to God..."Ashutosh had nodded n then ordered coffee..he knew it himself..chances were almost zero..n yet...!!

In the evening as he returned home much later than nidhi..ruminating in the drive..his cell rang..it was col verma"hullo colonel verma..bataaiye sab kaise hain"?and colonel replied"Dr Ashutosh main soch raha tha agar is weekend nidhi apne ghar..matlab humare ghar aa jati to..."?Ashutosh replied"colonel verma..i really dont know..change of place would be good..but she might be lonely..."colonel reiterated"aap chinta nahi kariye..bua hain..shyama bhabhi aayengi..usse involved rakhoonga..unless you have problems.."!Dr Ashutosh'sface softened ..the colonel was only trying to help..he should let go of nidhi..he must..she had not been to ger father's even for one night after their union...Ashutosh acquiesced and said"main Friday evening drop ker doonga..n d pick her on sunday night.."Colonel smiled"thanks Ashutosh. .friday main pick ker loonga but sunday come and have dinner with us n then le jaaiyega apni nidhi ko waapas..uske asli ghar"!Ashutosh sighed"yes..uski nidhi..she was his..forever..n kid or no kid..there was nothing n noone that could threaten this bond!Ashutosh turned to his home..parked the car and entered..he could smell the daal fry that nif6was making ..and he went into change n bathe!As he came to the dining table n called out"nidhi..khaanaa do"!she almost ran out only to collide with him as he held n steadied her.."aap..aap kab aaye..mujhe pata hi nahi chala..normally i can smell you.."Ashutosh smiled n said"daal ke chaunk mei ..meri smell kho gayi.."!and as nidhi bit her lip..baba entered"arre waah Ashu tu kab aaya"!!and as they sat to dal fry n mix veggies,Ashutosh said "colonel verma had called..tumhe weekend pe bula rahe hain..friday shaam ko aayenge lene.."nidhi looked a lil tense..as she gazed at Ashutosh and he patted her hand n said"dont worry..sunday night main aa jaaoonga lene waapas !!okay"!and before nidhi could say much Baba added"yes beta. .jaana chahiye colonel ka bhi to man tarasta hoga apni beti ke liye..apne bachche ki yaad kise nahi aati.."and he bit his tongue as he said it..for almost immediately nidhi's eyes clouded..she tried to get up but Ashutosh held her hand..n wiped her tears..in front of baba..as he said"nidhi..baba is right..aur humara dukh..hume uske saath jeena seekhna hoga.."and nidhi nodded..n then smiled at baba.."to weekend me boys' party rahegi yahaan ??kya kya karenge mere bina"??and Armaan walked in n said"ashu aur baba ghazal sunenge aur main bechara doodh cornflakes banaaoonga"!!as Kaka peeped out from the kitchen.."yaad rakhna apna vaada Armaan beta"!!

***************

"Kya baat hai nidhi bahut sust dikh rahi ho..tabiyat??"said Dr Ashutosh as he looked at a listless nidhi sitting in the sofa chair..and she looked at him..n said"nahi buss soch rahi thi..kal..main chali jaaoongi..."Ashutosh held her n said "correction..chali jaaoongi nahi..weekend ke liye jaaogi..yahan se 5 km.door apne baba ke ghar..aur sunday ko waapas le aaoonga main apni biwi ko..apni nidhi ko"and she just hugged him..as he held her..and time stopped!

"Yeh aapke kapde..yeh night suit..socks ..undies aur kuch"??and Ashutosh looked up from his evening tea n said"aur kuch..sunday night ko.."and she blushed..as she arranged things and packed her bag..a small suit case n she somehow hated doing it..was it Ashutosh's live that was pulling her..or the memory of how her father had resisted their union that was pushing her..she did not know..but as she put a speck of sindoor in her hair..she put a dot on the mirror too..as Ashutosh looked at her reflection...

"Beta..Colonel aaya hai.."!and Ashutosh got up to go outside as nidhi looked around and then followed him..

"Taiyyar hai beta..chalein??bua ne tere liye kheer banayi hai.."!and baba said"jaa meri bachchi..jaa .."and nidhi stood up..but then said"bus baba..ek minute abhi aayi.."and went into their room ..as Colonel verma looked at baba..who was looking at Dr Ashutosh! Ashutosh rubbed his beard n said "zara dekhta hoon main.."and entered their bedroom ..n almost immediately nidhi hugged him ..as he held her n kissed her nose.."kya hua..do din ki to baat hai..buss.Sunday night aa jaogi waapas..coffee banana aake.."and nidhi nodded n hugged him again..

As he finally brought her out..as they came to colonel Verma's Swift Dezire,Ashutosh put nidhi's bag n opened the door for her..nidhi touched baba n kaka's feet and looked at her husband..hoping he d hold her back..but he just smiled n said"ab do din colonel Verma ki wardrobe ki safaai karna"!!and all laughed as the car drove out n nidhi kept on looking back for as long as she could see Ashutosh. .her dr Ashutosh!

Dr Ashutosh entered his house..for somehow it did not feel to be a home without nidhi..baba smiled and said"jaa kaam khatam ker apna..aaj dinner ke baad M.S subbulaxmi sunenge..bade din ho gaye"!and as Ashutosh nodded..Armaan bit his nails n said"koi is bachche ka bhi to socho..mera kya hoga is weekend..nidhi ke bina"kaka came out n said"chal khana lagwa mere saath"!!and Armaan ran.."M.S subbulaxmi sunne se achcha to bartan lagaana hi hoga"!!

Ashutosh sat on his study table and busied himself in his work,there was a lot of work that he wanted to finish so that he could concentrate on his surgeries.It was at 9.45 that armaan came in n said"chal khana lag gaya.."and as Ashutosh got up..he saw Armaan looking at the room. .beautifully done up by nidhi..and the two pics of nidhi n Ashutosh. .he smiled as he said"iss ghar ki aur teri dono ki kismat badal di nidhi ne"!!and Ashutosh laughed as he added"meri kitaabon ko waqt hi nahi mil paata ab"!and Armaan replied"woh aisa hai dr Ashutosh aapne kitaabein kaafi padh leein hain..ab aapki umr to nahi hai..per since aapko nidhi jaisi ladki mil gayee hai to..zara dil ki kitaab padh leejiye!"!and both friends laughed..as baba entered his son's sanctum.."kya ho raha hai bhai

.meri bahu ki buraai"??and dr Ashutosh said"yes baba ho sakta hai..raat tak col verma nidhi ki baaton se uski yak yak se itte thak jaayein ki mujhe kahein"dr Ashutosh. ..muaaf jar deejiye per Aap kal hi le jaaiye nidhi ko"!and armaan laughed but baba turned serious and said"na beta..aisa nahi hoga..colonel ne maa aur baap dono ka pyaar diya hai nidhi ko..woh kitna miss karta hoga usse...yeh main samajh sakta hoon..reh lene de..do ek din usse wahaan..chal hum music sunenge aaja..aur aaj tu mere baalon ki maalush bhi karega.."!Ashutosh 's eyes reflected deep love as armaan quizzed"excuse me baba..yeh neurosurgeon maalishwala achchi maalish to ker dega..per aapke baal hain kahaan??yaa pehle hair transplant aur phir maalish"??and baba pulled armaan's ears!!

************

"Nidhi chal khaane beta"called dadi bua..as nidhi tidied up the crockery almirah..and got down from the chair..she washed her hands n looked at her cell..no whasapp. .maybe dr Ashutosh was busy..she smiled as she sat to eat taahri..her favourite ..rice cooked with potatoes onoins n gobhi n mattar with meethi chutney ..followed by kheer..as dadi bua fussed over her..n cv chided bua'"bua plz..nidhi ko wahaan bhi khana milta hai..dr Ashutosh bahut pamper karte hain isse..kyun nidhi beta ..am i right"??and nidhi smiled as she said"jee baba..bahut zyaada khayal rakhte hain..mera..but utna keh nahi paate"!and dadi bua n cv both smiled..realising that dr Ashutosh was the silent but firm type of a man..and they both did not need any proof from nidhi about his love n commitment for her..

Nidhi talked about the new car that cv had been planning and asked about his export house..as he said"ab to budget rakhta hi nahi..kuch expenses hi nahi ..bus chote sarkar ki salary..."n cs interjected "jo ek baras se nahi badhi beebiji"!!and all laughed!

As nidhi yawned cv said"jaa so ja beta..apne room me..bua ne khud saaf kiya hai..while cs made a face"humne kiya hai..dadi bua ne sirf humaara khoon piya hai"!!

Nidhi said"good night baba..dadi bua..kal aapki wardrobw arrange karoongi..aur shyama aunty ko dinner pe bulaiye na kal..main banaaoongi khana..sab aa gaya hai mujhe"!

And dadi bua smiled..as nidhi went in..n changed..looking at her phone..almost dialling Ashutosh n then putting the cell back..maybe he was busy..she had seen the bundle of files he had got home..she knew they were his companions of a lonely weekend!!

Dr Ashutosh came into his room..it was 11.45..he yawned and lay on his side of the bed...looking at the other side..which he used to imagine would be nidhi's..till it turned to be a reality..he suddenly got up and opened her wardrobe..n took out her jewellery box..all her bangles n earrings lay in a mess..he recalled her saying"ek din fursat se theek karrongi"!he smiled as he started unentangling the pieces of jewellery. .the chains from the bangles ..n then started pairing the earrings..as he recalled how each one looked on nidhi..n then he opened a tiny box kept carefully at the bottom..as he opened it..he saw thise blue stone earrings that he had gifted her looong back..she cherished them n kept them clise to her heart..Ashutosh smiled as he kept the neatly arranged box and then touched her saris n kurtas..all v neatly arranged..yes she had all hues but wasn't her favourite colour pink??he had never asked her..for he normally gifted her blues..he loved to see her in blue..but somehow she herself always chose some shade of pink for herself!!Dr Ashutosh smiled to himself as he returned to the bed and suddenly missed his late night coffee...but then what was coffee without nidhi!!and black coffee??well he had lost the taste for it!

As he lay on the pillow. .thinking of nidhi..knowing fully well thst she must be twisting n turning in her bed..without him..he finally took his cell and dialled...

Nidhi had indeed been trying to sleep but it was miles away...when the cell buzzed and she grabbed it..just as she was about to shower him with a barrage if questions..he stopped her"wait..wait..maine khana kha liya..baba ko dawa de di..kaka ka tonic bhi..aur ghar me sab kuch hai..siwa tumhaare.."and as nidhi smiled..he asked"jab itta man tha baat karne ka to phone kyun nahi kiya"??nidhi blushed at her transparency "aapko kaise pata.."and dr Ashutosh laughed n said"dr nidhi..tumhari rag rag se waakif hoon..tumhare lafzon se..tumhari chuppi se..tumhare pyaar se..aur tumhare gusse se bhi"!!

Nidhi laughed n told him all she had done ..as Ashutosh asked"aur Rohan"??and she replied"woh hsi kahaan..U.S gaya hai.

Sunday morning aayega janaab"and Ashutosh added "tub..kya karogi..mann lag raha hai na"??nidhi wrinkled her nose n said"nahi lag raha to aa jayenge aap abhi"??and Ashutosh extended his hand to caress her..n said"bus jaan do din..col verma ka bhi to socho..lets not be selfish.."!and nidhi added"kal baba ke saath car ki test drive ko jaaoongi..we d buy..i mean he d buy a new Dezire.dekhte hain kal..finance n all"!Ashutosh wanted to say something but restrained himself!finally nidhi aaked.."mere bina kya kiya"??and he replied"kaam kiya..per journal padhne ka mazaa tabhi hai..jab tum takiye phenkti rehti ho.."!and nidhi added"jaise Pokemon pakadne ka mazaa tabhi hai..jab aap kahein"kya bachchon ka game khelti ho"!!and it was finally at 1 that nidhi yawned n said"Goodnight..so jaaiye..bus sunday to ab aaya"!!...and Dr Ashutosh looked at his watch..yes..about 36 hrs to go...before his life came back to him!

********************

"Baba chaliye ab decide kariye Dezire top variant ya second waala"it was nidhi asking her baba as they drove back after the test drive and CV laughed n said"mrs Ashutosh. .main tumhare pati jitna ameer nahi hoon..EMI ke baare me bhi sochna padta hai"!and nidhi pouted"baba..let me pay..meri salary se..plz .itta to huq hai mera aap pe.."and cv diverted from the argument n said"chal tera fab india..kurte le le .."and both papa beti entered as nidhi tried a few and chose two pink n green ones..n then took out bush shirts n collared kurtas for ger papa.."baba chaliye try kariye..no argents..nahi to mai unhe ring ker doongi ki aa jaaiye mujhe lene.."!and cv sighed n went in to try..

Nidhi insisted almost bulldozed her way to swipe her card as CV complained"this is not fair..not at all"!!n she reponded"fine..aapki beti unfair hai..ab kya karenge aap"!!and that ended all arguments!

As they entered CS was talking to Dr Ashutosh n soon kept the cordless..as nidhi looked at him..he said"dr sahib ki aur humari kuch personal baat thi..just for us only"!and nidhi frowned as she went into fix lunch with CS and dadi bua looked at the packets of fab india"khareed layi poora bazaar"!!!and cv laughed!!his house seeming full of joy n energy..but he knew ..nidhi was now like a monsoon shower who d come unannounced. .but would go back to her ocean..her sky..her dr Ashutosh. .n he was happy ..he just wished...

"Khaaanaa raajma chaawal..baba aaiye na.."!

****************

It was sunday morning and Shyama aunty,solanki uncle n Dr Ranga anji n their baby..now a healthy toddler of 9 months had also come over..nidhi had cooked paav bhaaji n dhokla while chote sarkar had got samosas from Ramasrey .Nidhi got steaming adrak wali chaai..as Solanki saab said"bhai..yeh nahi..naashte ke saath chilled beer"!!and CV shook his head n said"sudhar ja Solanki..abto nana ban gaya hai"!!and Solanki saab looked at anji n then at nidhi n kept quiet...saying"chal nidhi beta aaj tere haath ki chaai hi peeyenge"!!and all began to eat..and chat..anji still quite possessive about the baby..though she smiled as nidhi played with him..holding him...cuddling him..as CV observed silently..with grief very silent in his eyes..and then as the baby yawned nidhi looked at anji n said"i think hungry hai..aur sleepy hai..le..rakh sambhaal is choco pie ko"!and have him a long kiss..as bua said"aa beta khaa le"!and as Shyama served nidhi..nidhi said"na aunty somehow i am not hungry..

Zara ghar baat kar ke aai"!and as she went in..CV sighed as dadi bua said"bhagwaan..meri bachchi ki gode..."and then just turned away!

It was in the evening that nidhi was packing and dadi bua n CS were cooking dinner..dr Ashutosh was expected by 7.30 p.m.Nidhi felt a strange flutter..a sense of excitement and a strange joy..was it just the impending arrival of dr Ashutosh. .or???

Nidhi was in the washroom having a bath...when dr Ashutosh arrived at 6.15..and bua smiled as she ushered him explaining that nidhi was getting ready and cv had gone to get ice cream ..Ashutosh sat..n then spoke a lil hesitatingly.."dadi bua..zara nidhi ko dekh aaoon.."and bua smiled n noddedd"jaa daktar..poochna kya hai..aur haan Rohan bhi aata hoga..uski flight..wo kya kehte hain..delayed thi.."!

Ashutosh entered nidhi's room..and as he looked at her packed suitcase..he smiled..at her eagerness to return home..he smelt the air that had her essence..and just then the door opened and nidhi emerged in a pink n black churidaar kurta ..wiping her hair with a towel..n he was inadvertently sprayed with a shower..as she saw him n almost froze..n then cried"sorry..aapko geela kar diya"!!and Ashutosh looked at her with intense eyes n said "yeh to bin mausam barsaat nahi..poora cycline aa gayaa"!!and nidhi smiled..a smile that shone in her Husband's eyes!

As they sat for dinner after a game of chess and nidhi served and as CV said "tu bhi to kha"she sat but had no desire to eat...as Ashutosh looked at her n raised his eyebrow..she said.."buss kuch mann nahi kar raha abhi..aap khaiye"and just nibbled with some mixed veggies.

It was at 9.45 that Ashutosh got up and said"ab chalte hain..CV..but aaonga jaldi ..kuch discuss karna tha aapse "As they bade bye..dadi bua kissed nidhi n blessed her...and they waved as dr Ashutoshdrove away with "his nidhi"!

**************

As nidhi entered home..her home baba held her ..n asked"kaisa tha weekend"??and armaan complained"ab main bhi chala karoonga tere saath..yahaan marr gaya main classical music sun ke"!!

Nidhi laughed and Ashutosh stood a lil restless as baba ssaid"jaa..so ja ab..kal se phir kaam.."!and nidhi smiled as Ashutosh n she went in..

nidhi changed and arranged the table n bed..took out the suit n shirt for the next morning ..and then waited for dr Ashutosh to emerge from the toilet..suddenly she smiled n went out..to come back with two cups of hot coffee.As ashutosh sat on the sofa she came n sat close by and they sipped in silence..ashutosh playing with her fingers..till she put her arms around his neck n pouted..and Ashutosh looked at her straight in her eyes and got up to lift her to their bed...

Nidhi seemed to have a strange sense of urgency as she tugged at him..and he observed her with narrowed eyes...and caressed her abdomen..his fingers rubbing her thighs and then exploring her core..as she was melting fast..and Ashutosh's fingers piercing her brought her to climax..as she clutched him..and he descended onto her bosom..and it was as he entered her..she cried for him..n he hugged her protectively with his arms as he reached his crescendo..and she sighed..n he kissed her..and took her into his arms...n tousled her hair...wanting to ask her "hey nidhi..suno to..."but nidhi just snuggled upto him..n said"paas rakhiye na apne buss.."and Ashutosh held her to his bare chest...

*********

"Suniye ..plz aaiye..."dr Ashutosh heard nidhi..as he looked around n found nidhi all dishevelled in the washroom..."plz..bahut vomits ho rahi hai..get me ..."and she threw up again..

It was after about an hour that ashutosh sat close to a sleeping nidhi..as dr Pooja came to examine her..Ashutosh seemed tense as he softly awoke nidhi..

Dr Pooja took her blood samples and then started a gynaec check up..and as she ended ..she got up..looking at Ashutosh. .n then at nidhi..she broke into a smile ..n said"sir..nidhi is pregnant...finally"!

And as Dr Pooja walked out ..leaving the couple to the privacy of their joy..Ashutosh cupped nidhi's face in his hands and just kept looking into her eyes..as her eyes brimmed with tears..and Ashutosh hugged her...as their tears united them...for another journey of hope..of fulfillment..of a dream that was sure to come true this time over...

THATS ALL..HOPE U R HAPPY!!NIDHI IS PREGGY
