Akshadh's POV

She closed her eyes slowly and lost her balance. I grabbed her tightly from falling and held her in my arms. I tapped her cheeks but of no response "Maaa...Amma...Bring water sidddhuu...." I shouted

Siddhu came running with a jug of water. I made maa to lay in my lap and tapped her cheeks continously but of no response. Then, I got the water from him and poured it in my palm. I sprinkled in her face and tapped again.

"Maa, get up...Did you hear me?" I screamed.

Siddhu and I made her to lay in floor.

I thumped her chest continuously to have the response. I can't console my crying brother. "Siddhu start the car, amma needs oxygen supply,"

He ran out and started the car. I carried amma in my arms and get into the car. I made her lay comfortable in my arms. He drove the car fastly. As time was 11.30p.m specialist doctors will not be found at this time. The mumbai city was not that familiar to us. We usually came here and stay for couple of days then return back to Delhi.

Siddhu took us to D.H hospital, mumbai one of the famous hospital here. I took amma in my arms letting my tears down. I rushed to the hospital. The nurse checked my mom and took her to the ICU ward.

Few minutes later, Recognizing me the doctor who was incharged in night duty ran towards me.

"Akshadh's sir, your amma is in critical stage. We gave oxygen mask to extend her life but we can't hold her till morning. Now, she needs heart specialist to examine her and to proceed for further treatment,"

"Then soon contact the heart specialist without delay sir, please," I pleaded controlling the tears.

"I am sorry sir, we can't call him now," he said bending his head.

"Why?" I almost shouted at him.

"He took leave for two days," Thinking for a minute "Sir, there is an option, contact the M.D of the hospital and she may help you by sending alternate doctor," he said giving the mobile number to me as it was late night, not a right time to call her.

I tried to contact her but of no response. Sighing, I tried again and again, somehow she picked the call.

"Madam, Akshadh Jai (Oncologist, VTM hospital, Delhi) speaking here, I need a favor from you. My mom is admitted in your hospital in critical,......situation...., she need a heart....specialist immediately, please ... arrange.... for it," I stammered with tears rolling in my eyes.

"What? Sorry couldn't hear properly"

I repeated again as it was like signal problem.

"Akshadh Jai? I will arrange immediately," she said and hanged the call without hearing the next word from me.

Within fifteen minutes, a car came in high speed and stopped in front of a hospital. I hope he was the heart specialist doctor. He showed a small smile to me and rushed to the ICU ward.

Third person POV

Akshadh was thinking bad about him as he was responsible for his mom's situation. He badly needs his mom back. He is praying to God silently to help his mom by wiping the cornered tears. He was melting for her completely. He sat in the nearby chair and cupped his face by his palm.

On the other side, Siddhu was looking at the small glass opening in front of the ICU ward. Unable to control the tears, he stood there and often turned to see his brother. He had never seen the raised voice of his brother before his mom but today is totally messed up and now everything get collapsed.

"Anna!" Siddhu came close to Akshu seeing him crying. "Don't cry..Maa will be fine soon. Usually you would console me for everything. You brought up me stronger after our father's death. I can't see you crying like this," siddhu said with tears hugging his brother sideways.

"How could I stay normal Siddhu? I am responsible for amma's situation. I lost my control and talked out whatever my brain says. How could I have been this rude to maa?" I said sobbing in between.

"Don't curse yourself anna, you are right in your way. If I am in your situation I would have behave worst than you. Don't feel guilty anna and don't think you are wrong," he said hugging me from side.

The doctor came out and both the brothers stepped towards him.

"Akshadh sir, your mom fell unconscious due to mild heart attack. She didn't came to conscious yet. She is responding to medicines but still we need to examine her for next 24 hours. After taking scan only I can do anything," said him made the brothers in wide shock though Akshadh guessed his mother's situation already. 

Knowing the critical situation of his mom, Akshadh approached him to do further test without delay. He knew that being late time none of the operators will be present in scan, ECG sections etc but still he pleaded to do something to save his mom. He added that he will help to take scan or ECG if needed.

Wait a minute Akshadh sir, he attended the incoming call. He spoke for about a minute.

"Ok don't worry, I will take care and try my best" he said and went inside. Then, the doctors took her to take Scan to examine further. Siddhu was looking everything from outside through that window glass outside the ICU but Askhadh didn't even look there for once, as he had no guts to look his mom in this stage.

"Annna,,, I am scaring a bit after hearing doctor's words. Mild attack! Noooo...Anna, will our amma come back to us soon?" Siddhu asked in fear of losing his mom to Akshadh as he was unable to console himself and he needs comfortable words from Akshu.

"Siddhu...Don't worry...Amma will be back and she is responding to treatment right? She will recover soon, don't worry. We have to see scan report and it should be normal that is the only thing running in my mind,"  Siddhu gained a bit confidence than before after hearing from Akshadh. Knowing, Siddhu's fear Akshadh makes him feel comfortable. Akshadh was hitting a deep breath and he was tensed about the scan report.

Few minutes later, the doctor called Akshadh to his cabin. After examining the scan report, he told, "Akshadh sir, my doubt was confirmed as she has a block in left arteries and we need to remove it immediately. If not, it will block one after the other leads to cardiac arrest again. She might feel hard to breathe now and we should do it immediately to rescue her,"

"Do the operation without delay, I would pay my whole earnings to this hospital. Give back my mother," requested Akshadh, unable to control his emotions he let out the tears. He wiped the tears with his fingers at once.

"Akshadh sir, you have helped many people by your services. Definetly, I will do my best. Usually, we do not conduct any operation procedures except labor case after 11 p.m but our M.D madam requested me to do all favors to you. So, dont worry. I need a senior consultant before doing the operation. We have arranged a senior doctor to come here before 5.am. We would do anything for you sir, Dont worry," the doctor said consoling. Akshadh looked at his watch, It was 4.15 a.m. He felt grateful to the doctor and the M.D of the hospital heartfully for arranging everything without a delay. By looking at the watch Akshadh remembered Dhiya. He couldn't hate her even after this situation. He can't even think bad about her for rejecting him. Instead he thinks about her help when Allen was in critical stage in hospital only by Dhiya's support Allen recovered fastly. Akshadh was madly longing for Dhiya's support. He needs a shoulder to cry and hands to wipe his tears.  

He couldn't understand the fact that he was engaged to Janu and still longing for Dhiya. Akshadh and Dhiya travelled in same path for some time but the destiny divides their path into two. He felt that he got everything (Allen's life back) when Dhiya was with him and when Dhiya left him, his happiness fades away (his maa's mild attack).

Sharply at 5.00 a.m, Akshadh entered into the doctor's room and stood shockingly. He remained frozen for a second. Why and what happened?
