Here you go
*****************************

It has been twenty-four minutes since natasha Jatin and Tina left the hospital bidding adieu to the sleeping beauty and her security guard. He was waiting impatiently for something...something good to happen. The last day of Hope of Sonakshi gaining senses didn't really turn into a good one as she started panicking again and moreover Dev was so confused as to why Sonakshi took Dr.Vedant's name. Since the visitor's departure, Dev asked the nurses thrice about Dr.Madhu and her whereabouts so he could rush to her and tell her what happened.

To his hope, Dr.Madhu came the very next minute, but she was not alone, she came with a man in his late thirties, crisp mud-pink shirt without a single crease along with the doctor's coat. Hands in pocket, his beard was dramatically shaped in absolute symmetry, his hair were perfectly gelled behind and his brown sunshine shining eyes were transfixed on Dev... actually straight view to him which ended up at Dev.

Dev was confused as to what possible reasons dr.madhu brought another doctor, is sona's health  more critical for her to fix alone, is she not able to understand what's happening with her, he should have changed hospital to another one with higher specialities in psyche ward.......his thoughts were ceased with Dr.Madhu's voice.

"Mr.Dixit..." Dev broke his trance and looked baffeling-ly up to her.

"Hie...I mean morning Dr.Madhu...i was so waiting for you, something happened this morning I have to tell you she woke up you know and it was stra...." Was cut in between when Dr.Madhu put a hand on his shoulder and asked him to relax.

"Relax Mr.Dixit...we are here for treatment only,so...meet Dr.Vedant Banerjee"

Dev's eyes shot open, this handsome face who could depict the handsome amount of money in his bank account, is he the same Vedant Sonakshi mentioned in her diary?

"Saying hello to a doctor is in good manners I presume, Mr.Dixit" Vedant said in his cold sophisticated voice.

"Oh-oh I'm sorry....hie doctor" Dev said embarrassingly.

"Mr.Dixit, as you told me yesterday I searched for doctor Vedant from Kolkata and luckily found him. He is the one who gave sonakshi her therapy sessions and treated...." was cut in between by the sharp guest voice.

"Uh-uh...not treated...she ran away before her complete treatment course which was of two years maximum. She ran away from the hospital after one year only, I hadn't treated her because if I had, she wouldn't have been here. Poor child I must say, suffered through alot than one can imagine...I pity..." Interrupted

"DON'T..... DON'T PITY SONAKSHI BOSE FOR WHAT SHE WENT THROUGH...she fought, fought more than one of us could imagine and even now, in her distraught state, she is more dextrous....more hardworking...and more successful than any of us. She doesn't deserve pitiness and sympathy for her poor family and horrible events she had to encounter. Treat her with dignity, that's what she deserves..." He couldn't hold back. Strangely he was secreting the anger hormones more than he ever did. He was getting angry for smaller things even, and reason being Dr.Vedant as sonakshi's crush at her teenage was good enough for Dev to hate him already, which was clearly stupid.
He hung his head low and let out a deep breath after confronting a big psychiatrist, as he appears to be, in front of his colleague in a hospital. He has never been this asshole.

"I wanna meet her Dr.Madhu" said Dr.Vedant in order to clear the heavy air from the three. Dr.Madhu simply nodded and escorted him to her room.
Dev couldn't stand there, he followed them with big desperate steps.

Half an hour later in Dr.Madhu's cabin.

Dr.Madhu lent her cabin to Dr.Vedant, as he came on her consult only, and went for rounds on other patients. Dev was sitting in the front chair while Dr.Vedant was reading sonakshi's charts. Dev was waiting impatiently to know more about her past  and even more about future....treatment.

"So, Mr.Dixit, you said she woke up this morning and mentioned me to you although, me and you, are different time periods and part of her life she never wanted to mix, right..!" He said while pulling his glasses off his face and putting them down on the table beside the paperweight.

Dev looked at him and said " yeah...I don't think that was normal because I..well...I don't think she would have told me all this herself, it kinda scares her..."

"Hmm....okay
Are you guys together?"

"Excuse me..? What does that have to do with anything?"

"Well...look Dev, I certainly don't know why you don't like me but, let me make this clear to you...whatever evils happened in her life...I was the part where I helped her mend them. So your hatred can become a sheer hindrance in my work of mending her again...for once and for all....either deviate your hatred and co-operate or just start liking me.."
His words embarrassed Dev for clearly spitting venom on an innocent Doctor unnecessarily. Sonakshi had a crush on him, that has nothing to do with him, he was a handsome personality to have a crush on and moreover, she was a kid.

"I'm...I'm sorry doctor..I'll do everything you ask for"

"Alright so...
Are you guys together?"

"No...well it's complicated...but I don't understand why do you wanna know that.."

"See Dev...it's difficult to make you understand but human's  brain is the most complicated shit one could ever understand. We study psychology become psychiatrist and do help alot of psyche issues but we never completely understood what's in someone's brain. It varies from person to person...from circumstances to circumstances. So for that you need to go in the depth of every possible thing you can imagine in your patient's brain. And about me, you must know, I don't do books, I do words and meaning behind them. I relate emotions with them. So if you make me understand what's the COMPLICATED relationship you are having with her"

This man was giving him hard times.

"Well Dr.Vedant, we love each other. I met her three years ago, we got along and fell in love until I had to go away from her and then things turned up in so Bollywood way that I couldn't meet or contact her for three years, moreover I had to marry someone else too. Now we met again two three days ago and everything just came rushing back like blood does when you hold a nerve and release it. And then yesterday I found her diary, which has everything mentioned, almost, in a very weird way but you can make it all. So she found me reading her diary and then she collapsed and then, here in the hospital only i got to know about the horrible events and  her PTSD and Bipolar disorder everything. Now...I want her fixed, that's all. "

"Hmmmm...(takes a deep breath and exhales sharply) so...the most possible reason I could make out for her remembering you and me, different phases of her life altogether, would be that she loves you and her mind has involved you in all the corners of her entire life. She involves you in her past, unconsciously and that's why, as you mentioned, she even stopped when it hit her that accidently she mentioned about her therapy sessions, a part of her hidden life, to you and that's why she panicked. That's all I could deem out right now Dev."

Dev was mesmerized for a moment to find out how love, a strong emotion, is also connected to the brain. The hormones secrets all those jittery bubbly sweet feelings when in love and when your heart breaks, the same intensity of pain is produced in the brain as it does in a physical wound, and that withdraws all those happy hormones back and you happen to feel some ache in heart, like your heart literally aching for the person.
It's not a mythical world of rainbows and unicorns when in love, it's true. And so is the hard fact that once you go through love and heartbreak, your body will be immune to it and you won't feel it that badly next time, your body and mind automatically becomes tougher.

"I don't know if I should doctor, but I'm happy to hear....that I'm involved already, vanishing my guilt that I intruded in her personal space and made her fall in this heinous trap."

Vedant put a hand on Dev's kept on the table and patted once.

"The fight has just began Dev, this time we have to deal it for once and for all. Her sedative will dissolve in an hour or two and then we will begin."

"Begin...begin what doctor...?" He was confused with the tone of Dr.vedant.

"You will see boy"

An hour later, the sedative dissolved in her body loosening it's effects and Sonakshi, because she already had enough sleep, started waking up slowly. She could feel herself weak and her head was hurting because of the sedative. She found Dev looking at her standing in front of her bed. She opened her eyes clearly and blinked quite a few times staring at Dev. Dev dint budge an inch, he stayed rooted without saying single thing.
Sonakshi's mind was actually traveling her past therapy days and finding Dev there was strange yet familiar, as Vedant said, her mind involved him everywhere. She couldn't deem out why and what he was doing here while also feelings that he was supposed to be here. She blinked quite a few times to reassure of she was hallucinating or what, but he appeared everytime. Before she could say anything, Dr.Vedant appeared in front of her.

"Hello sonakshi, how are you doing?"
He said going near to her.

"I'm....I'm good... doctor...I don't know...I'm feeling strange things...did I....did I miss my session today.....and Dev...why....why is Dev here...?"

"Sshhhh relax....sonakshi listen to me very carefully. You are in Mumbai hospital, in 2020. You got one of your PTSD attack when you saw Dev reading your diary. Sonakshi, you ran away last time when I was treating you...I need you to complete your treatment this time..." He stopped as sonakshi started screaming suddenly.

"He read my diary...he read my....my...diary...Dev...he would...he would hate me...Dev.....I'm not....whyyyy....why....that was....oh god my head...my head hurts...." She clutched her head and felt like she was going to faint again. Dev panicked and reached her side and held her while Dr.Vedant held her too and made her look at him.

"Sonakshi....SONAKSHI....listen to me...no one hates you...you get that...no one hates you, Dev loves you, I love you, the nurses the doctors your colleagues everyone loves you honey....stop hiding under the bushes...it's killing you already. Thirteen years back I asked you to let it go....I asked you to talk to someone who would listen to you, I told you that you can tell me everything. Sonakshi, it's very important you speak up. It's high time you speak, if you don't want to ruin your life anymore than it already is.....everyone loves you admires you..."

All these words made her calm down a little. She looked at Dev with her glassy filled of hope eyes and Dev wiped his tears and assured her with a nod. He held her shoulders firmly in order to let her know that he is there for support.

Dr.vedant raised and asked Dev to stand by him. They both stood in front of her and Dr. Vedant said "you have to decide, who you going to talk to, me or Dev"

Sonakshi looked at both of them and shed a tear or two.

"I can't..."

"Yes you can...and you have done already. No one here owns more than 250 hotels, you do, no one is as strong as you are, no one is as beautiful as you are, Sonakshi...there's nothing in this world that can make me hate you even a slightest. Nothing. So yes you can." Said Dev. He had all these piled inside him since a long time and he wanted her to get over with it.

"My father loved another woman, she was a prostitute, since his teenage only, they had a son when baba was 17, she was five years older than him. Baba kept raising Saurab dada in a small hut in slum area where maa... prostitute used to live. My grandparents kept pushing baba for marriage and he couldn't tell them about his Son and his prostitute mother, he kept delaying the time with excuses and all but when he was 32, he had to marry a young poor girl Porinita, my prostitute mother was pregnant with me that time. A few months later, when I was born, baba told Porinita everything as he thought she would understand his feelings and would raise me as her own daughter, so that my whore mother won't have to deal with another kid in slum and give her a poverty stricken life, that too a girl. But everything turned bad. Porinita faked that she accepted me but few years later we realised that she kept this fake face for Baba's ancestral home, sadly my grandparents donated their property to the orphanage and since then Porinita lost her temperament. She started torturing me since I remember. Dada got married when I was six years old and got settled away from everyone. He never went to meet our real mother for he hated her for her profession. Baba used to go to meet her but since I started gaining little senses, baba was very weak and Porinita never let him live peacefully.
One day....25th August, I was nine when baba, frustrated from Porinita's tortures, let me out to meet my real mother as I was already kinda curious to know about the 'whore aunty' they kept mentioning. We went to the slum and from that time on I was supposed to live there only, with my real mother. She was older as well as weaker than baba, her face pale and grey scales in hair. She beamed with happiness to see me, I looked at her and felt so strange that she used to look like me, alot like me. She patted my cheeks and told me that my name Sonakshi was kept upon her golden eyes as sonakshi means-golden eyed. She was my mother and it felt like the love I craved for from a mother was now fulfilled until a gunshot was heard and all I found was my whore mother's chest bleeding profusely while her mouth left open and choking for breath. I heard baba shriekingly running towards her but another gunshot and he dropped on his abdomen right in front of my dieing mother with his back bleeding. I couldn't say a single word, it was Porinita holding my father's ancestral gun. That gun was now pointed towards me but people came rushing towards us and she freaked and ran away. I sat there for three hours in front of my bleeding parents until the police came and took the bodies away. I passed.
When I woke up I found myself at dada's home, and heard Boudi screaming at him loudly. I was so petrified to watch another conjugal strive that I tried to run away but couldn't.
Times later dada found about my bipolar disorder as he found me cutting and burning myself at places, different places, and also about PTSD as whenever I saw them fighting I started panicking and fainting. He later enrolled me in a govt. psyche hospital where I found Dr.Vedant. My parent's death case was so famous that NGOs came running to take care of me and they only invested for my treatment and Education.
I ran away after one year of my session because I felt stable and wanted to live alone on my own and make money. I ran to my old house, found Dory again and started writing in it.
I lived in that house alone for years until my business started.
I have lost so much that it feels I never deserved anything and then I met you Dev. You made me feel like most beautiful and most respectable lady in the world and that literally mad eme forget about my whore mother, scared body and tainted mental sickness past."

Dev and Dr.Vedant were thrilled to know all this. Poor little girl had to see all these and go through such. She was exploited brutally, just by God's grace was left from physical assault.
Sonakshi didn't cry a single tear while telling all this. Dev moved towards her and hugged her tightly. He rubbed his hand on her head and hugged her in a soothing way. She was stiff for a moment until her mind and heart broke the barriers. The flood inside her broke the dam and it all showered upon. She started crying and crying and crying and no one tried to stop her.

Dr.Vedant left the room for someone was already there for her.
