PART 29B
The entire Vadhera family had reached London. Everyone was now sitting near the gate waiting for their connecting flight to LA. Viren went to find a phone booth to call Virat. He called his cell first but no one picked up and then he tried Manvi's cell phone but she didn't answer either. Viren tried calling the home phone and Tarun picked up. He told them that Virat and Manvi had gone to the doctors. Viren told him to tell Virat that they were in London. After he cut the phone Viren thought to himself why Virat and Manvi had gone to the doctors. Was everything okay? He got worried and tried Virat's cell one more time.
virat - "Hello"
viren - "Virat, is everything okay. Why are you at the doctor's"
virat - "Bhai, don't worry every things fine. When do you board for London?"
viren - "In two hours, but what happened? Is Manvi fine?"
virat - "Yeah actually, Manvi was making lunch when I came home and she fainted in the kitchen. She wasn't feeling better the whole day so I made an appointment with the doctor and we were just leaving from there right now."
viren - "What did the doctor say?"
virat - "She prescribed some medicines and did a few blood tests"
viren - "Virat, you don't think this has to do anything with her cancer does it? Please I think we should come back then. I don't want you to be alone there taking care of Manvi"
virat - "I think everything should be fine. We have to go back in the morning to get the results, i'll let you know if its something serious. Don't worry Manvi is feeling better, she may have just over exerted herself and she forgot to take her medicines to with all the excitement of going to LA"
viren - "Okay you take care of her, and send me a message first thing after meeting the doctor. I will call you as soon as we reach."
virat - "okay bhai, and please don't tell anyone right now otherwise they will get all worried especially Jeevika bhabhi."
viren - "Okay, but please let me know as soon as you find out"
virat - "Okay bhai, bye"
Viren cut the phone and was feeling very panicked for Manvi. He knew if he told Jeevika she would be restless the whole way there, so he decided to tell her once they found out from the reports. Viren went back to where the rest of the family was sitting.
swamini - "viren, are virat andmanvi alright?"
viren - "Yeah badi ma, they are fine"
Viren sat down next to Jeevika and Gia.
jeevika - "Virenji, did you talk to manvi? is she okay?"
viren - "Yeah she's fine" he said with a guilty tone. "I spoke to Virat and they were both at home"
jeevika - "Okay, I can't wait till they come now. Hopefully Virat's meeting will go by well tomorrow so they can leave day after"
viren - "Yup, hopefully"
jeevika - "Virenji, can we go to that store over there. I want to do some shopping."
viren - "Yeah lets go"
Viren picked Gia up from Jeevika's lap and the three of them headed to the shopping store. There were so many things there from perfumes to clothes to handbags. Viren was quiet as Jeevika walked around looking for things. Jeevika noticed how Viren was behaving a little strange ever since he talked to Virat. She was talking to him, but he wasn't even paying attention.
jeevika - "Virenji, where are you lost? Is everything alright? Are you hiding something from me? Did Virat tell you something?"
viren - "No jeevika, everything is fine. Just feeling a little restless."
jeevika - "Lets go back, anyways I don't want to shop anymore" she said taking Gia from Virens hand
viren - "No sorry jeevika, go look for more stuff. I'm fine and anyways we are going to end up sleeping on the flight again"
jeevika - "No i didn't really like anything"
Jeevika took Viren's hand with hers holding Gia and walked back to where the rest of the family was sitting. After another hour they all boarded the flight again. It took them another 10 hours to reach Los Angeles. Once their flight landed Viren quickly turned on his cell phone to see if Virat had messaged him. Indeed there was a message, and Viren was left shocked.
sorry for making this confusing with part a and b. was planning on posting another part tomorrow morning, but decided to post it right now as both parts were fairly short. Look forward to more surprises soon :-)
