Part 12
They takes Maya and rushes to the hospital.Madhu remains very silent throughout the journey.They wait outside the room after admitting the child when Meera comes out along with the doctor after seeing the child's condition.She sees Madhu standing near the door and remembers seeing the same girl with her parents
"Sultan,the child has blood loss ,you come with me,we will arrange for the blood"
They walks towards Meera's cabin with the other two kids leaving RK and ,Madhu there.RK feels so guilty and goes to talk to Madhu,
"Madhu,I am really sorry,I didn't have any idea about the soap being down,I didn't ...I am sorry...it is because of me ,I will pay the bill"
Madhu sees him apologizing without any expression for a minute and tries to walk from there ,he hold her hand and repeats his apology.Madhu controls her tears with great difficulty,
"Rishab please dont think that I don't have any money with me,oh sorry you have said before I don't have any rights to call you by your name....I am sorry RK sir,you need not worry about me and my kids,I Have money to pay the bill f you want to help me ,then for God's sake leave this place right now...I am sorry to put my words bluntly,I hate to see you ,it reminds me of all the torture you gave me in the past past,it reminds me of all the pain...now thanks you so much for helping my daughter to reach the hospital,please go from here"
RK gets angry on hearing her words and pins her to the wall.
"What past?what bullshit?Every time Madhu every single time,you will always misunderstand me and go away from me,have you ever given me a opportunity to explain my part,have you ever,Are you dreaming that I am following you and talking with you because I have some stupid feelings for you....Never Never...I just thought about your college days and thought to .....OK now you want me to leave from here,yeah I will go away but don't forgot today incident was a mistake and I will shoulder the responsibility ,I will pay the hospital bill".
He walks from there angrily leaving Madhu to cry alone in the corridor,she hears footsteps and turns to see Sultan coming there in a sullen expression with Madhu's other two kids.she feels something bad from his expression.He signs one of the staff in the hospital to take the kids for the play area.Madhu waits for his answer anxiously,He recalls his conversation with his mother,
"The baby is fine now,we have stopped the clot but had quite a blood lose,so we need blood transfusion ...its that the child blood group is a rare one ,its AB -- so we have asked many blood banks about the stock.but the answer is negative,You ask the girl about her blood group,in general case the parents have similar blood group",its better to get blood today itself"
He tells her about the situation and waits for her reply.
"Now what can we do Sultan?My my blood group is A positive but you are telling me that the child 's blood group is different ,Is there any possibility to find the donor?"
She becomes silent for a minute and asks ,
"Its....you said mostly parents and children may have same blood group,what is Rishab's blood group?"
Sultan remembers having a conversation with RK in school days,
"Bro,that fellows are beating our Shikky,come and help....."
Shouts RK entering Sultan's class.He keeps the book aside and runs towards the place where Shikky gets beaten up.sometimes later, Shikky sees the injury on hand and scold RK for not helping him.
"No Shikky,I have a very rare blood group,my mother have asked me not to involve in any problem".
Sultan recalls the incident and calls him.RK drives his car with anger and repeatedly declines the call and puts the phone in silence ,Sultan loses his cool and shouts,
"Stupid fellow,not picking the call..where did he went?He was here only before sometimes,Did you guys have any fight?"
Madhu cries silently without giving answer to his question.He calls RK's number again.
"Madhu,you don't worry about anything,we have many hours time ,I will get that fellow or find a suitable donar...OK don't worry ,everything will be fine ,I will first check my blood group"
Madhu tries RK's number several times and cries as no one picks the call.She calls Dipali,
Dipali applies ointment to Shikky's scratches and sees him overly concerned about something,she keeps the ointment aside and pinches his hand,
"Hey...its paining yaar,what can I do if all this scratches leave scars in my skin?"
Dipali laughs and teases him,
"So what?You are in your 30's ,what will happen if you get any scars...are you going to participate in Mr Perfect hand competition and are you worrying about your cute interns....?you are really shameless...You need think about all this before rolling in the stairs...."
He laughs on hearing her jealously remark ,Dipali smiles seeing him being happy ,she asks him about his family,
"you know everything about my family,about dad,mom,their divorce,remarriage ,everything but you haven't told me anything about your family?I have only seen your grandpa,its been almost a month but why haven't I heard anything about your parents?"
Shikky's smiles vanishes on hearing about his parents.Dipali notices his emotional change and hold his hand,he pushes her hand away .she feels tensed seeing his visible anger,
"Did I asked anything wrong ?,sorry I was curious so only"
Shikky sees her feeling guilty and answers her question about his parents,
"My dad is living now in Japan....he is doing some thesis there ,I was always taken care by my grandpa from childhood...."
Dipali feels still not convinced,
"Sorry but your mother.."
Shikky laughs bitterly,
"I don't have a strong impression about my mother,I haven't seen her in the past 25 years.....she left me in the footsteps of the house and went away...But my Grandpa always tell she will come sooner,the last thing I remember about her,she looks very beautiful with curly hair..that is the reason why I felt some sort of affection for Madhu,my mother is a tailor,she stitches cloths....I am searching for her for all these years but couldn't find her,I had a head injury when I was 12 and lost some of my childhood memories "
Dipali hugs him with tears
"Do you want me to curl my hair like your mom"
.He comes back to his usual move and teases her,
"Don't try to curl your hair,you look like awkward in it..."
They laughs happily when her mobile rings,Dipali sees the caller ID and murmurs
"Madhu is calling me at this time"
She walks out of the room to attend the call leaving Shikky alone in the room.he sees some article in the newspaper and takes out the paper with great difficulty when a book feels down from Dipali's bag.he sees the book and tries to take it
Dipali hears Madhu's sobs,
"Madhu....what happened?"
She hears the whole incident from her and tries to pacify her ,
"Don't worry,i will ask Shikky to call him,you don't worry "
when she hears a huge noise inside the room.Dipali rushes in to find Shikky lying in the floor falling from the bed.she cuts the call runs to help him.Madhu sees the call been disconnected and sits in fear when Sultan walks out of the room.she gets up from the chair when messages comes from Dipali,
"Sorry Madhu,this Shikky fell down again ,I am taking him to the nearby hospital ,I will call you later "
RK stops His car in front of his house and sees his mobile full of Calls from Sultan and Madhu...he thinks to call Madhu first and drops the idea thinking about her angry words,he calls Sultan's number.Before Sultan could attend the call,Madhu takes the phone and shouts at Him,
"Where the hell are you,come quickly to the hospital now...Maya....what is your blood group?"
RK stands stunned on hearing her talking to him ,he hears her voice inbetween choking tears.
He replies,
"I am AB- ,I will be there,what is going on "
