Very well written, thoroughly enjoyed both parts.. I was really curious to know how you'd play out Abhimanyu's emotions if he has to take up the role of her husband, the conflict of knowing she rejected him but now has forgotten and the lack of consent since she has lost her memory.. I think you brought that out beautifully in the last few lines . Looking forward to part 3...

Thank you so much! I am so glad you thought I justified Abhi's conflict. That was the base premise of this whole part - I am so glad it had the desired effect.

Thanks! Will try to post Part 3 by tomorrow.

Thank youuu!!! Aarohi understanding ka toh pata nahi - I am kinda mad at her right now, toh I'm going to take my bhadaas with the following parts. Heee heee.

I'll try to update by tomorrow night.

Please update Yaar......

I am waiting for your update eagerly

Part 3 - From this day on.

Tumhare liye agar mein khud ki nazaron mein ghir jaun, tab bhi mujhe manzoor hai, Akshara.

Yeah, anything for her, he had told himself. Anything - but the depths of his love - no, not love, the depths of his resolve - you keep telling yourself that...

Gritting his teeth, he banged a curled up fist against his forehead, as if that would quell the war raging on in there.

The depths of his RESOLVE were about to be tested - heavily!

Shaking his head, he tried to assimilate everything he knew about the situation he had just landed in.

Akshara did not remember anything other than him - not even her name.

She thought he was her husband

Her mental condition was fragile now.

The presence of her family - the Goenkas visibly troubled her.

SHE-THOUGHT-HE-WAS-HER-HUSBAND.

So, the way he saw it - he had 2 options. One, the truth - that would mean walking out of here saying he wasn't her husband and leaving Akshara with the Goenkas.

Abhimanyu gulped - what was he even thinking? Leaving her with the Goenkas? After what just happened in her hospital room??

" I'm right here" he said, bending down to place a kiss on her forehead.

Any doubts he had before vanished that instant as he felt Akshara relax under his kiss.

"YEH KYA HO RAHA HAI?"

He closed his eyes, willing his temper in control, he respected Mr.Goenka, but if Mr.Goenka could not see that Akshara was in pain, then he was not sure how long he would remain being nice.

Eyes still closed, he started speaking through clenched teeth, "Mr.Goenka.." Whatever he had to say was cut off as Akshara grabbed his hand with such urgency that everything else was forgotten.

His only priority was her.

He opened his eyes to look at her. To his horror, she was looking at the Goenkas with a frightened expression on her face, inching closer to him, as close as she could while still staying on the bed.

"Akshu..." He muttered softly, turning his hand around so that their fingers were now intertwined.

She gripped his fingers tightly, "A-Abhi" she said with difficulty, and the one thing he hoped would not happen, did. Her face paled and her breaths came in deep, shallow gasps. She tilted her body from the bed, clutching at his shirt with another hand firmly.

Oh to hell with everything else.

It broke him to see her like this, and whatever little resolve he had left flew out the window, as he leapt forward from his chair, supporting her shuddering body, cradling her in his arms.

"Shhhh" he cooed, stroking her hair with one hand, while supporting her body with the other. Nestled on his chest, he could feel her body heave with the breaths she took with difficulty.

He had only felt so helpless once in his life. Just once.

Slightly pulling back, but still holding her close enough to give her comfort, he tilted her head to look at him,

"Akshu, listen to me, you need to sing. Gao" he coaxed.

He felt his heart sink a little when she just stared back blankly at him as if to ask him, "what are you talking about?"

She had forgotten music?! His heart plummeted violently to the ground.

No!

"Lag jaa gale..." He tried, sending a silent prayer for her to respond.

Please, please, please.

"Ke phir yeh haseen Raat...."

Come on, Akshu, come on.

"Ho...na...Ho...." She finally joined him, and he smiled, nodding, encouraging her to continue singing.

"Shayad iss janm mein" her breathing was slowly getting back to normal now, and so was his, he realised.

"Mulaqaat ho na ho" they finished the song together. For a few seconds he did not speak, and neither did she, looking at him as if her life depended on it.

He brushed her tears off tenderly, and she grasped his hand, pressing it against her cheek. Closing her eyes, she tilted her face, leaning into his hand and remained there for a few seconds.

As she got her breathing in control, the tight hold on his shirt loosened, and she started to relax a little.

Slowly, he lowered her back on the bed, pulling away to check if she was breathing okay, and if the panic attack had passed.

To his relief, she looked okay now, and for the first time in days, his heart felt light.

"I need to go talk to Dr.Bhavsar" he said softly, stroking her hair. She lifted her right hand and curled her fingers over his wrist as he let his hand linger on her head.

"But I'll be right back okay?"

She nodded, her eyes fluttering close.

He was about to turn away when she lifted her index finger and motioned for him to come close.

He bent down a little, careful to keep the distance between them.

She thinks you both are married. Thinks

He kept repeating that in his head, when she opened her eyes. Looking at him, she scrunched up her face, a big frown forming in her petal lips.

Petal lips? Focus, Abhimanyu.

It all happened in a second. With strength he didn't know she had, given the condition she currently was in, she grabbed his face and pulled it down to hers. What she did next threw not just his resolve but also his conscience out of the window.

Window?! Out of the freaking universe.

"Love you" she breathed before brushing her lips on his briefly in an urgent peck.

It was not a kiss of passion. It was a kiss of survival. A kiss of existence. It took every little fibre in his body to stop himself from kissing her back.

Managing to smile weakly, he pulled away, "you need to rest" he muttered, before turning and walking away without another glance at her.

His resolve was not going to last one day, Abhimanyu thought, ramming a hand through his hair as the memory made his heart stupidly flutter.

One day?! You're not going to last one hour, idiot

"Aaargh" he growled, and immediately felt stupid for letting his emotions overpower his sanity again as Dr.Bhavsar chose that exact moment to stride back into her room with a concerned, "are you okay, Dr.Abhimanyu?"

He vaguely nodded, and she sat down opposite him, "I have explained everything to the Goenkas, and they have, begrudgingly, accepted the situation. They will still need to be informed of Akshara's progress, though, but for the moment, they have left the hospital"

He really could not care less about the Goenkas now. Blurting out the questions he had been dying to ask since he set foot in the hospital, "She does not remember her name, but remembers me. She does not remember her family, but remembers the song and can sing. I don't - " he said

"Mysteries of the brain, Dr.Abhimanyu" Dr.Bhavsar said, cutting him off with a smile. When he seemed unimpressed by that she continued, "Neurological pathways. She will remember some things that she has done over and over again, that the process is imprinted in her brain. Like walking, talking, writing, but you already know that" she said hurriedly with a wave of her hand, as if dismissing his questions, and that irritated the hell out of him. "What is important is that your wife has you. She remembers you, and that should be enough for now"

Enough?!

"No, that's not enough Dr.Bhavsar" he said, banging his hand on her table, his emotions finally getting the better of him.

If she thought otherwise of his behaviour, she did not show it. She merely raised an eyebrow, smiling knowingly, as if encouraging him to continue.

Closing his eyes, he took a few deep breaths, willing his temper in control. Taking that as her chance, Dr.Bhavsar continued, "keep her away from the Goenkas. You said she had a panic - "

He nodded, "yeah, she has a history" he informed her.

"Take care of your wife, Dr.Abhimanyu. With your support, she should get better"

He nodded resignedly. He wanted to ask her when Akshara would get better, get her memory back - but as a doctor he knew there was no definitive answer to that.

Sighing, he leaned back in his chair, he has two options, he had thought? No. He had only one.

He had to keep the Goenkas away from Akshara, and, well, the farther away from his family, the better.

The second part was what scared him, because everyday he would have to balance between right and wrong, heart and mind, conscience and emotions.

Because now, there was only one thing he could do. Because from this moment, he was her husband.

Husband.

"Dr, once you have her reports back, will you send for me?" He asked Dr.Bhavsar on his way out.

He paused just for a second to note her affirmative nod, "ofcourse" she said.

He nodded back at her, "I'll be with my wife"

Wife.

****** To be Continued ******

Ooh-kay, I wanted Akshu's POV also in this chapter but it kept going on and on, so her POV in the next part.

Please leave your comments, it helps me to write more. Criticism more than welcome.

Not proof read.
