"Hmm. Prepare the operation room you are going to perform the bypass and I will be there to see how you work" He told me making me shock, wasn't he the one who called me irresponsible doctor some time ago? and now he wants me to operate his friend. Why is he so bipolar.

I went towards the surgery room where a nurse was waiting for me, I wash my hands then she made me wear the surgical scrub suit, mask and gloves, the same thing she did with Akshay sir (HOD) and with a intern, there was one more nurse present who would give us instruments and supplies used for the operation.

We begin the surgery,firstly I inserted the breathing tube into his mouth. Then I make a long cut, down the center of the chest along the breastbone. I spread open the rib cage to show the heart. After the chest is opened, the heart is temporarily stopped with medicine. And the heart-lung machine is turned on by the nurse.

Then I remove a section of blood vessel, from inside the chest wall.

After all the 4 hour process I ask the intern to close the chest bone by the wire.

Me and the HOD we both step out of the Surgery room after throwing the scrub, gloves and masks in the bin. Then he went to his cabin without saying anything to me, making me roll my eyes.

I went to my cabin to rest.

After half an hour a nurse came and informed me that Anuj sir was now awake so I went to him.

Today I got really late it was midnight now and I am still at the hospital checking some patients.

After the first surgery I just got half an hour of rest after that I had back to back surgeries, I quickly informed Abhimanyu and he came to pick me up.

Soon we reached home and no one was present there, obviously they all were sleeping, we too went to our room and slept there.

A week went like this, with the same routine, just one thing changed, and it was that now whenever I go to hospital I take my car there, so even if I am late I will not disturb Abhimanyu.

In this week Abhimanyu did not talk to his parents, whenever mum would come towards him he would change his direction ignoring her presence.

It was a normal day, I woke up early so I decided to cook today.

I was cutting vegetables when mum came.

"Shivantika beta, I'm sorry jo bhi mene kaha, I was not thinking clearly at that time, you are my daughter and I would never want anything to happen with you...par pta nhi uss time kiya hua that I started behaving selfish, I only cared about my feelings. I am so sorry." She said and suddenly started sobbing.

"Mumma please don't cry" I said hugging her "I am not angry at you, because I know what you felt, you just want everyone to know that your son got married now, and this is every mum's wish, you were not selfish. And don't be sad, I'll talk to Abhimanyu and ask him to talk to you, vese bhi bohot hogaya...dusra week start hone laga hai and he is still not talking to you Okay? now please don't cry. You look beautiful when you smile. Chalo ab ek piyari si smile kro" I told her and she smiles a little.

"Ok ab btao aapne kiya khana hai? Today everything will be your favorite" I ask her

"Jo bhi meri Shivantika ka favourite hai, vo hi mera hai," She said while smiling softly and caressing my cheek.

"Aare why are you crying, kuch galat bola kiya?" She asks me innocently, concern evident in her eyes, I kiss her forehead and shake my head wiping my tears.

My biological mum never cared about me or my preference she treated me like trash, and here my mother in law is treating me as if I am a fragile doll.

I only heard that mother in law are suppose to be evil or they don't respect their son's spouse, but here is contrary, she is so sweet and she treats me like her daughter.

"Aap bahar jaye, I will cook today's breakfast" I say to her

"Yeh cook ka kaam hai you come with me outside" She order ne and then start dragging me outside in the living room
"Kiya haal bna rakha hai balon ka. Come I'll oil your hair."

"Mum I have to go to the hospital, oily hair ke sath nhi jaa sakti." I told her

"I'll make a good hairstyle, kisiko pta bhi nhi chalega." Saying this she made me sit on the floor and then started oiling my hair.

Shivantika sits comfortably on the floor her hair cascading down her back. Riddhima, her mother-in-law, sits behind her on the couch with a warm smile on her face. As Riddhima's delicate fingers dip into a bowl of fragrant oil, she begins to gently massage it into Shivantika's scalp. The rhythmic motion of her hands creates a soothing sensation, releasing any tension Shivantika may have been carrying. With each stroke, Riddhima's love and care flow through her fingertips, filling the room with a sense of warmth and affection. As Shivantika closes her eyes, a single tear escapes, reflecting the overwhelming emotions she feels in that moment.

As Riddhima continues to massage Shivantika's hair, a sense of deep gratitude fills Shivantika's heart. Unable to contain her emotions, she gently reaches out and holds Riddhima's hand, pausing the gentle motion. Looking into Riddhima's eyes, Shivantika softly kisses her hand, expressing her heartfelt appreciation for the love and care she has received.

After sometime when the oiling was done Riddhima made a beautiful braid.

And in that beautiful moment, Abhimanyu stood silently nearby, a witness to the touching scene unfolding before him. As Shivantika held Riddhima's hand and planted a gentle kiss upon it, Abhimanyu's eyes filled with admiration and love for both of them.

Abhimanyu's eyes widened in awe as he witnessed the tender exchange between Shivantika and Riddhima. A soft smile spread across his face, reflecting his deep appreciation for the love and affection displayed in that moment. His heart swelled with pride and admiration for both of them, recognizing the significance of their bond and the beauty of their connection. It was a sight that would forever remain etched in his memory, a testament to the power of love and understanding.
