this is a bit long so, dil thaam ke behto...part 4
As they pulled her stretcher into the operation theatre, beeji had only come only with Virat, so she called Madan chachu in tears to call him to the hospital. Virats heart was breaking but he was trying to console beeji. his arm was around her and she was crying her eyes out. Suddenly the whole chaudrian family came rushing in, in tears. They discussed whether they should call Viren or not. After 5 minutes of discussing, they decieded that they would call Viren. Virat offered to call his brother so that he could get some fresh air.
Virat fast walked out of the hospital, found the closest bench ad let himself cry. he thought of all the times with Manvi. when she was so happy when she was finally allowed to go to hr Di's wedding, did she have cancer then? Finally he called his brother.
"Hello Virat?" recieved his bhai.
"hello bhai" sobbed Virat.
"Kya hua Virat" asked a very worried viren bhai.
"ma..man..manvi" cried Virat
"kya? kya hua manvi ko?" asked a even more worried viren bhai
"Manvi operation theartre mein hain!" struggled Virat
"kya? we're coming. stay strong. bye"
"bye" said virat as he cut the phone.
Virat tried to calm himself down and walked back into the hospital. there was no news of manvi. they had to keep waiting, everyone shedding tears once in a while, although trying to stay strong.
half an hour later, the vadhera family rushed into the hospital and everyone started crying again. Jeevika's head was on Virens chest and she was sobbing badly.
After another 10 minutes, the doctor came out o the operation thetre. everyone rushed up to him.
"she'll be ok. we're moving her to a ward, and we'll keep her here for a few days for observation. Hopefully her cancer has now gone" replied the doctore. the vadhera family all looked round at each other hearing the word 'cancer' but viren soon explained.
Half an hour later, manvi woke up in her ward with the whole chaudary and vadhera family around her. Jeevika di was sitting on a stool next to manvi's bed, holding her hand, Viren jiju was behing jeevika holding her shoulders. Virat was on the other side of her, like her di, on a stool holding her hand. Beeji, Madan chachu, pinky chachi, Dabbu, Dadaji, Swamini bua, kadambari chachi, Inder chachu, Vanshika aunty, shlok, her punters and even badi beeji were all standing around her, looking at her with worried expressions.
"kya hua? Smile karne bhool gaye kya?" asked manvi innocently, he voice was weak but everyone could hear. they all smiled.
"Mannu" jeevika put her hand on Manvi's cheek "how are you now Mannu?"
"I'm fineee di. kyu tension lehrahi hoon? Smile karo do!" replied Manvi
"Manvi di!" all her punters, shlok and dabbu rejoiced and ran to hug manvi. she smiled with tears in her eyes. After them, beeji, madan chachu, pinky chachi and badi beeji hugged her. "kya hai? Smile karo, free hai" manvi said. Everyone smiled apart from beeji, she was about to turn away when manvi held on to her hand "dadi amma, dadi amma, maan jao na" she sand sweetly with her strength until her beeji smiled. Next Vanshika aunty came and gave her a hug. Finally everyone had gone to her and jeevika held on to Manvi's hand again.
the nurse came in and said that everyone needed to go out becuase Manvi had to have some injections, get her blood taken out and get her drips taken out.
"Nahi, injections nahi. Vanshika ainty, dadji, bolo na usse" manvi said.
"Beta, lagwalo na please" pleaded dadaji
"tikh hai dadji, bas tumare liye, ok" replied manvi and dadaji smiled.
"come on, lets go" viren told everyone. Manvi slowly let go of her di's hand but wouldn't let go of Virats.
"Virat, chalo na" viren told Virat
"please jiju, tum sab mujhe chorke maath jao. Someone stay with me" replied Manvi, and the nurse also agreed.
"relax manvi" Virat told manvi
"ma'am relax" the nurse also said.
"one minute nurse" said virat. he loosned his grip on Manvi's hand but manvi wouldn't loosen hers.
"Ek minute manvi"
Manvi let go of his hand and virat propped himself on to the bed and manvi held onto his arm. Virat nodded at the nurse and the needle came closer to manvi's arm, manvi squeezed Virats arm harder and virat thought he felt as if his heart was breaking a thousand times.
Virat told everyone that he would stay with manvi overnight, everyone smiled at how much Virat cared about manvi. after everyone said 'bye' to manvi and virat they all left to go to the chaudry house.
"kya hua Virat?" asked Manvi
"kuch nahi" replied virat
"jhoot bolne ka PHD karle tumhe?"
"kya hai manvi? You scared the life out of me"
"sorry" manvi said, holding her ears. Virat took hold of both her hands ad brought them to his lips, and gently kissed them.
"Virat"
"hmm" Replied virat, breaking the kiss on her hands and looking up at her.
"Bed par behet jao please?" asked manvi. Virat got up from the bed he was sitting on and sat on the bed, so he was facing manvi.
"manvi"
"hmm"
"why did you think i wouldn't love you because of your cancer?" Virat asked. manvi looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
"because i thought that you wouldn't love and marry a girl that would di-" Virat put his hand over her mouth, just then the nurse came in with food.
"Nahi kahna mujhe" Manvi said, disgusted.
"ma'am you have to eat something" replied the nurse. before manvi could argue "leave it there" Virat told the nurse pointing at the table next to them. the nurse placed the tray of soup and bread on the little table and left. Virat picked up the bowl of soup and made manvi look at it. Manvi pulled a fake throwing up face and virat laughed. Virat picked up a spoonfull of soup, blew it, made manvi open her mouth and fed her. Manvi pointed at the bread in the tray. Virat got it but manvi took it of him, broke a bit off dipped it in the soup and held it at virats mouth to feed him. he looked at her lovingly, and fed each other until it was finished. after a while of jokes and talking, virat sat on the stool and made Manvi sleep.
"Virat!" she jerked awake, shouting. Virat also jerked awake from his head beig on Manvi's lap. Manvi was crying.
"kya hua? tum tikh hoon na?" kya hua manvi?" asked a very worried Virat. Virat had been sleeping with his head on manvi's lap and she had a strong feeling that he had only just fallen asleep, maybe a little while ago. A rush of guilt spread through her whole body and she cried even more.
"manvi, kya hua?"
"i'm sorry virat" manvi sobbed "mein bhura sapna dekhi thi aur mein tujhe utaya. tum tho abhi sotha, na? she looked at his blood shot eyes and pale face. "tum kya bolrahi hoon manvi? kya burah sapna dekhri thi?" he asked. "voh..tum..tum..chalegaye the mujhe chorkar" she sobbed.
"manvi, mein kah nahi jane wale, kabhi nahi" he told her in full confidence he was about to hug her "i want to get up virat" Manvi demanded
"kyu?" he asked her
"kya kyu?" she said trying to get up herself. Virat couldn't let her get up herself so he helped her get off the bed and asked her what she wanted. They both had to be careful because of the wires attached to her, she said down on her hospital chair. "Virat tum bed pe sohjao aur mein yaha pe" she said innocently.
"kya hai ye manvi? Bed pe jao" Virat demanded
"nahi" Manvi replied, after a long, quarreling dicussion they finally decieded that they would share the bed.
the next morning
"Jiju" Manvi excitedly whispered. she was going to raise her hand so that she could hug her di and jiju when she looked at Virat. His head was oon the shoulder, one of her hands was caressing his head like a baby and her other hand Virat had tightly under his cheek, he was holding it there and he was in a deep sleep. Suddenly kadambari chachi, inder chachu, swamini bua, dadaji and shlok all entered the room. Jeevika and Viren quickly put their fingers on their lips and as they came in quietly they saw Virats head on Manvi's shoulder cradling her arm. They all shared a smile and a little, quiet, laugh. , then they all showed wrapped up gifts, gifts for manvi, and manvi couldn't wait to open them. they were all whispering around the room when Virat woke up. he looked at Manvi and smiled, he looked so much better now and that made manvi's heart rejoice. Everyone's attention went to Virat.
"sorry..mein..voh..mein both ghera neend mein tha" he told them all apologetically and embarrassed.
"Koi baath nahi beta. you would have been tired" replied dadaji and they all once again shared a smile. the doctor entered and said
"Congratulations Manvi. You are ow OK. you're cancer has now gone and you have made one of the fastest recovery's. Congrats. You may go home now manvi, but have at least one day no jumping, although you can try to walk around" the doctor walked back out and everyone rejoiced.
