Geet say while heading to the Kitchen with the plates on her hands "im not clumsy the floor just hates me , the tables and chair are bullies and the walls get in my way "
Rano and Mohinderlaal keep laughing tell they hear a voice of plate falling on the floor , Rano " see , i told you, im going to see if we still have plate for breakfast "
Mohinderlaal " ok , just dont scold her please" Rano smile at him then head to the Kitchen , suddenly Mohinderlaal hear her sceaming " Geet , Geet open your eyes"
Mohinderlaal run to the Kitchen when he found Geet on the floor unconscious with blood on her nose, and Rano holding her, he was shocked because Geet in her whole years with them never pass out then he said taking his phone " Im gonna call for an Ambulance"
It was night and on the hospital Rano was holding Geet's hand , this one was sleeping on the hospital's bed Mohinderlaal was standing next to her , then he put his hand on Rano shoulder and said " Dont worry the doctors has done all the tests and give her the treatment soon she will wake up, and the doctors will come with the results its probably just fatigue"
Rano said " not its not stress or fatigue, Geet get tired a lot in the past , she had Fever and flu but she never pass out , never "
Geet slowly open her eyes and said " where am i ? mom ,dad what happened ? "
Rano " we are at the hospital you passed out this morning , dont worry doctors do some tast for you now we wait for the results "
Geet " atlest now i have a good reason for breaking all your plates on the morning " then she laugh
Mohinderlaal " i Told you she will be ok Rano , look at her start her jokes " then look at Geet and said " are you feeling better dear ?"
Geet smile get up from the bed and see "much better dad look at me im walking again "
Rano " lie down on bed you need rest "
Geet " No i dont need rest i feel perfectly fine, what i need is a pic "
Mohinderlaal " a pic ? "
Geet " this is first time that i pass out ,i know that you 2 did not
take a pic for me in that position, i know you were freaking out,
the first thing we will do when we go to the home is faking a pass out you take pic of me,and then i will add it to my album of photo , of course after i show the pic the Adi and Pinky "
Geet hit her forehead and said
"o my god i forgot to call Adi and Pinky and tell them that im
getting married , how can I ? they are my best friends since college o god they will get realy angry, what wrong with me i keep forgotten things this days? "
Rano said " aarti stop talking and stop your madness for a while you need rest please lie down, you will call them later "
Mohinderlaal "by the way i call your work and talk to Adi,he was so worry about you and he said he will handle everything, at work also he will come with Pinky at the hospital after he pick her from her work too, they keep calling when you were sleeping and they are on the way to the hospital too"
Geet " they dont have to come im fine, but dad you didn't tell them
about my vivah news "
Mohinderlaal " No dear dont worry "
Geet " good because i want to tell them myself " The door open and 2 doctor come in , Mohinderlaal " Hi is everyting is ok ?"
Rano " Nothing is wrong with our daughter ? "
The doctors look at each other and one of them said " I have some news for you could you come with me at my office "
Geet said " Come on Doc im awake and im 26 years old , just tell us all its a bad news right ? you guys dont look happy , please tell that because you had work so many hour "
One of the Doctore smile head on the bed and stand next to it and say " Hi miss Geet you are finally awake, Hi im Dr Khanna Neurosurgeon , how do feel ? "
Geet " Scary ,you work on brains right ?"
The Doctor said " yes miss Geet and im sorry to said that i have some bad news for you "
Rano suddenly stop her thoughts when she hear Rajji calling her
" Mom we are home please lets go , dont worry Geet is gonna be
ok with Maan "
Our flashbacks are not always happy we dont call only to see our happy days or tortoring our self with the bad ons ,we just want to analyze the situation, and finally end with to questions like " What if ..? " " Why we dont have those happy time enymore? " and "Why all that had happen to us ?"
