Kumkum opens her eyes weakly ....She luks around and finds Sumit cold compressing her feet...She moves her feet in discomfort..
Su:Kk?..So jaa abhi....
But, she sits back, holding the bed...Her mental state isn't too well at the moment and she's in a delurium, unable to understand what is happening around her...Tears pour down her eyes...
Sumit is still compressing her feet, massaging them with ice...
Su:Maine kal dekh hi nahin...tere haath pairon mein swelling bhi bahut badh gayi hai...tu iske liye kuch davai nahin leti hai?....
Her mind is still full of thoughts of her home..and she has another emotional breakdown.....Sumit goes near her and hugs her..
Su:kya hua?..Kk?...tabiyat theek nahin lag rahi hai??..hmm??...kk?..ro kyun rahi ho?..
She hides her face in his chest, very tightly and gives out enormous sobs...He soothingly, caresses her back to calm her down...but, her tears are not stopping...
Su:Kk?...kya hua bata?...hmm?...idhar dekh meri taraf...Kk?...
He moves away but she again, hides her face in his chest....She's crying only...
Su:Kk?...ro kyun rahi hai...??...
She keeps crying...he lets her....soon, her sobs grow light....Sumit pats her back to calm her down...
Su:Tujhey anxiety ho rahi hai Kk...ro mat..main davai de deta hun..Ciplar le le...aaram milega...neend bhi aa jayegi hmmm?...
Kk:(crying)...Serti....
Sumit sighs at the name of Serti...but seeing her condition, he doesn't argue...
Su:ok..deta hun.....theek hai?..ro mat tu....
He gets the medicines and gives her...
Su:so ja..main pairon mein thodi si massage dene ki soch raha tha...
She holds his hand...
Kk:nahin...
Su:Kk..swelling thodi zyaada hai...numbness hone lagegi...main..
Kk:(crying)nahin...
Su:accha theek hai..nahin..
She places his hand beneath her head and closes her eyes..Sumit sighs and caresses her to another session of drugged sleep...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kumkum took another 3 days to recover from her state...Sumit had been extremely sympathetic and concerned towards her.....He took care of her and she even took the next exam with full confidence...
As soon as the exam gets over, Kumkum runs to Sumit and hugs him very tightly.....Sumit is surprised at her sudden gesture...He too, hugs her back...
Su:Itni bhaag-daud mat kar....abhi poori tarah se theek nahin hai tu...
KK:Exam bahut accha hua...
she notices Anjali standing behind Sumit..She rushes to her too, to hug her but she stops her..
An:bas bas...kk..itni khush ho aaj tum...??..
Kumkum smiles...
Sumit:Toh...ek kaam karte hain...hum log aaj shoppping par chalte hain...Westwind mall...kyun??...
Kumkum nods her head in agreement...
Anjali:Toh kya kk bhi chalegi???....
Su:Of course Anjie...
Anjali:I ...i mean..wo theek nahin thi toh...
Su:She's ok now....aur waise bhi wo kaafi dinon se ghar se bahar nahin nikli ...aur tum bhi toh keh rahi thi na..ki shopping ke liye jaana hai...
Anjali:haan...hann...ok...chalo phir...
Su:Kk...laa..phir bag mujhe de de...
Kumkum hands over her bag to him ....He makes her sit comfortably at the back seat while Anjali sits at the front...
Su:Tu comfortable hai KK?...chalein ??...
Anjali is fuming with anger..but she smiles and the car starts off..!!
