Drishti's POV

My head was throbbing terribly. Every cell of my body felt exhausted. I tried moving my hands and I could sense that I was able to move my fingers.

One thing that I realized is, I am alive! Miracle!

My eyelids felt heavy but I decided to open my eyes. I managed to open my eyes but the lights in the room made me shut them. The light was too bright.

I understood I was in a hospital.

Oh wow!

You know what Minnie, you are looking like that Mummy from Egypt.

Mummy from Egypt? Minnie? Mr.Shergill?

I tried moving my left hand but felt it was too heavy. Something solid was covering it. I tried moving my neck and I was able to!! 

Now I tried moving my legs, but only my left leg was movable, I felt the same hard covering on my right leg. 

And I heard some calls. Some similar ones. I gathered all my strength and forced my eyes to open them. All that I could see was the blue ceiling. 

A lady in a white dress...

Nurse!! Dumbo!

Oh yes! A nurse came foremost, towards me and supported me to sit. 

I gazed at my left hand and right leg and... NOOOOOO!!! It was plastered. 

Now, who will run after mickey to irritate him? What is this god, Hand is fine, but leg, how am I going to move?

As I watched ahead, there stood my gigantic family with a concerned face. I stared at them blankly and averted my gaze to Mickey. 

I remember all of them. 

As if...

Shut up!

Let's lighten their mood!

I heard Mickey rustling 'Minnie'. I stared at him blankly and urged him to come forth towards me. His eyes were moist. As I called him towards me, his grin widened which made my heart dance happily. As he came towards me, I implemented my acting skills. I can be a great actor, who knows!

"W...Who are you?" And a tear slipped down his eyes. 

I pity that poor guy. 

Will you please shut up?

I called him close to me, and as he was close enough, I stretched my hand towards his face and wiped off that tear.

Grinning at him, I proceeded,

"Helloooo Mr.Shergill! "

While he was staring at me all horrified with his mouth a bit open. My grin had already run far away. He looked at me as if I had beaten him worst and without uttering anything he rushed out of the room.

Divi, glancing at me once,  or say glaring at me once, walked out in the direction where Mickey went. My mom and Mahima mom arrived near me.

"You okay beta?" Mahima mom questioned looking at me troubled.

"Yeah. All okay." I said smiling at them and glancing at my plastered limbs and the wires hanging around me.

"You know Drish, you should stay like this only, you look nice, with all that snakes dangling around." Chetan papa said managing his grin.

"Dadddd!" 

"Drishti. You have to be serious sometimes. Do you even know what he went through?" Mom asked coming towards me and caressing my face. I looked at Mahima mom who smiled at me and came and sat beside me.

"Drishti, I know you wished to lift everyone's mood, but you shouldn't have done that. He was really down since yesterday. He didn't even speak with anyone properly. His replies were just hmm, yes, ok. That's it." My dad described it to me.

I pity him!

Get lost!

"I am sorry. I'll apologize to him soon." I said with a determined smile.

End of POV

A day later.....
(After Drishti's discharge.)

Author's POV

It was almost midnight. Drishti was in her bedroom expecting Rakshit to enter, while Divya and Shikhar were making the small baby take medicines.

"Stop it guys! I am not a baby!" Drishti yelled getting annoyed and threw cushions at them with her other hand.

"But you are behaving like one, Drishti!" Shikhar said defending himself and Divya who had held her medicines and a glass of water and looked at her with a plain expression.

"Just shut up!" Drishti screamed and took a deep breath and leaned on the headboard pouting, gazing at the door.

"You sure di? That you are not taking them?" Divya said so in an alarming tone.

"Very sure!" She said mocking her and made faces at her.

"Fine then, I don't want to do this, but I have to now!" She murmured and handing Shikhar the medicines and glass of water, she marched near the entrance of the bedroom and aimed at someone to come inside.

Looking all confused at Divya's actions, Drishti looked at Shikhar who shrugged his shoulders and looked at the entrance.

And Drishti's eyes widened like a saucer as Rakshit entered the room, but he was busy arguing with someone on the phone. Dragging Shikhar by his shirt, she snatched the medicines and swallowed them down within an instant as Rakshit just glanced at her which was enough for her to understand everything.

After emptying the tumbler, she passed an extra sugary smile to him, which he snubbed royally. She pouted at him cutely and laid back sighing and making faces at him which did not have any effect on him as he was trying his best to ignore her. 

He hanged up his call and looking at Shikhar he acted as if he did not know that Shikhar was also present there.

"Hey Bro!? What are you doing here?" Rakshit gaped at him confused, tucking his phone in his pocket and folded his arms across his chest.

"Bha..Bhai.. Eh? What..?" He looked at Rakshit all confused as he had informed that he and Divya are with Drishti.

He raised his brows at him and all of a sudden looked at Drishti as if he was totally unknown to her.

'Kitne papad belne pad rahe hai!?' He thought in his mind sighing mentally.

Drishti grinned at him widely while he was staring at her all confused. He glanced at Shikhar, then at Drishti and asked Divya,

"Divi?!! Who is she?" Rakshit asked pointing at Drishti while Drishti's face with a grin soon changed into a face with wide eyes and a widely opened mouth.

Pressing his lips in a thin line to control his laughter looking at Drishti's expressions, Rakshit glanced at Divya and then walked towards Drishti.

"Do I know you? Miss??" He asked as he acted to throw questioning glances at Divya, who was trying her best to keep a plain face, while Shikhar was in the same condition as Divya as they knew Rakshit's intentions.

Irritated with it, Drishti threw another cushion at Rakshit which he dodged professionally. Glaring at her, he proceeded

" O hello!! Miss whatever! I don't even know you! How dare you do this?" He stated with his 'angry-young-man' mode turning on.

"You don't know me?!" Drishti hollered looking at him.

"Of course not!" He too screamed in the same tone.

'Accident mera hua hai, leking dimaag pe asar inke hua he!' Drishti thought and looked at him all hurt.

'Where I had thought that he would care for me, and where he is doing all this drama.. Huh Sadu Akdu Bedill Rakshit Shergill!' Drishti imagined.

"Get out all of you!" She screamed irking which startled Rakshit for a second. He gazed at Divya and Shikhar and the trio went out of her bedroom while Drishti tried to doze off.

Inserting his hands in his pockets, Rakshit glanced at Divya and Shikhar with a strict face. Both glanced at each other and then glancing at Rakshit, they burst into fits of laughter.

"You both know what we have to do now, right?" Rakshit asked them as they nodded grinning evilly. 

" It's in my room Bhai!" Divya said to Rakshit reminding him.

"No worries I will get it!" He said in a cheerful but serious tone.

Sighing heavily, he began walking towards Divya's room but stopped in front of his Minnie's room. He slowly peeped inside and was shocked to see her sleeping with a cute frown on her face. Concluding it was the effect of the medicines, he slowly walked towards her bed. Caressing her forehead, he softly placed a kiss on her forehead and covered her with the duvet. 

Cupping her face and slightly patting her head, Rakshit walked out of the room and marched towards Divya's room, not before once again glancing in his Minnie's room who was deep asleep and bought the thing which was needed. Smirking evilly, he walked towards Divya and Shekhar.

"Itni jaldi aa gaye bhai?" Divya said surprised.

"Shut up Divi." 

And they were about to step their feet out but were stopped by their Vidya mom's voice.

"Where are you all going now? At 11 in the night?"

"Ehh. Mom.. Haaaa, office. Important work, issliye office jana hai." Rakshit stuttered as he saw the rest of the family members behind vidya looking at the trio, rather say glaring at the trio.

"Ye log nai sudhrenge." Vidya murmured in Mahima's ears while Mahima shook her head.

"Will it be safe, to let them go?" Sarthak whispered in Chetan's ears.

"Rakshit hai na. Woh sambhal lega. Aur police station hi ja rahe hai, toh itni dikkat nahi aani chahiye."  Chetan whispered back to Sarthak.

"Come back soon." Mahima said while the trio nodded rapidly and walked out of the mansion.

They sat in their car, and Rakshit began driving towards the police station.

"I canttt waitttt!!" Divya said rubbing her hands.

"Me toooo!" Shikhar added.

"Even me. But have some patience ." Rakshit said softly.

Soon after reaching the police station and taking permission from the commissioner, they were now standing in front of the jail, where Lavanya was locked up.

"I knew it! Drishti died right? And now you are here!"

"Looks like she did not see the news," Shikhar whispered in Rakshit's ear making sure it was audible to Lavanya, while Rakshit smirked and removed his phone. Opening one of the articles, he showed her.

"She is completely safe!" Rakshit said in a pure mocking voice.

"What the... How is this possible? I.."

"Mhmm! This is definitely possible. Because she is My Drishti. Get that? A fighter! She's a fighter!" He said calmly but with a fire in his voice.

"What are you all doing here?"

"Well, Lavanya, we are here to congratulate you, on your failure, since you failed to get rid of my di." Divya said smirking, while she just glared at the trio which did not have any effect on them.

"Here, take this, on your victory of failure," Rakshit said calmly as he passed her a bouquet of all dead rotten flowers (which definitely didn't have roses 😛).

Looking at that bouquet of rotten flowers, Lavanya smirked and continued,

"Looks like The Rakshit Shergill could not afford a bouquet of fresh flowers."

"O hello I..." Rakshit almost yelled and moved in front to hit Lavanya through the gaps of the jail, but Divya and Shikhar held him by his wrists.

"Bhai calm down. Remember she's stupid."Divya whispered in his ears.

Sighing heavily, he whispered back, 'yeah' and took two steps behind.

Smiling like a devil, he continued,

"You know what idiot, the thing is not about affording. Actually, you know, these flowers are decayed because I had bought them, especially for you, on the day when you succeeded... partially succeeded in your disgusting plan. Ask why? Don't want to ask? It's ok, I'll tell you. because I knew my Drishti will overcome this, and fight this. And look, she's all fine and happy now. And since I bought it quite ago, these are decayed, just like your mentality." He said totally calmly but in a dangerous voice.

"And Lavanya, there are really not so few insects in them, but you can easily deal with them. After all, a lizard can only deal with insects." Divya said crossing her arms across her chest while Rakshit silently said, 'Exactly' and Shikhar laughed at them.

"I just won't leave you all."

"Abeyy sabse pehle jail see to bahar aaja, aur kise pata, agar death sentence mil gaya toh..to phir idhar see direct upar. Phir upar jaake kehte rehna 'I just won't leave you all." Divya said laughing while Rakshit just chuckled and Shikhar patted Divya's back.

Giving hi-fi to each other, the trio walked out of the police station and went back home.

Next-Day....

Rakshit's POV

Ok fine, I accept that sitting in a place for the whole day is really very boring that too when your limbs are fractured and you cannot move, but that does not mean you will irritate someone in between of something really serious?!

I was trying to be serious in a really serious meeting, but Drishti.. ' Heavy sigh' What can I do of this girl???

My phone's condition from past 2 minutes..

Ting!

Ting!

Ting!

And ting!

And above that, my stupid PA even forgot to make a presentation because of which I had to do all the presenting work.

I think I am taking them, too lightly, I need to be strict again.  And Drishti, I am very sure she is currently not having any other work than irritating me.

"Sure then, we agree  to the terms and conditions of the deal, but we would once like to meet Mr. Chetan Shergill." Said the MD. 

"Ok then, I will tell dad about it and my PA will e-mail you about the next meeting when my dad will not be busy."

"Sure."

"Yes, Thank you." And shaking hands with them, I walked towards my cabin as all of them left. 

Gulping down a glass of water, I leaned on my chair.

Today was much better than yesterday and the previous few days. I was feeling so .. I don't know.. like incomplete from the past few days. I was unable to express anything. It felt as if someone was pushing me into a wall. I feel so light today. Thank you, god, for saving my Drishti. To lose her is my worst fear.

Drishti!! Oh yes! She was irritating me in between a meeting. I need to check.

I instantly caught hold of my Phone and opened her messages.

And there she had sent those sorry pictures. I am sure she made this cute animal collage by herself, after all she was getting bored, toh timepass toh chahiye na.

'Please forgive love'. 

Not so soon love. You are taking everything as a joke, I want you to be serious and I am definitely not forgiving you so soon, not at least till your birthday arrives.

And then she had sent a really cute picture.

I laughed silently as I suddenly imagined Minnie stuck in that wool threads and apologizing to me with the best puppy face she could make.

 And this unicorn one, lol looks like she just installed a new 'paint by number' app on her laptop.

Trying my best to control my laughter on her childish nature, I noticed an unknown envelope on my table. I opened it and .. there she goes again..

Formal apology. I am so blessed to receive this.

Sarcasm?

Definitely not...

In the matter... That I am the most stupid creature ever existing on Earth.

I hereby admit I was wrong. I take my oath that it was all done to lift everyone's mood and I did not possess any wrong intention at that time.

Lmaoo, I just love her dude!!!

Let the records show I have officially apologized.

I couldn't help but chuckle. And I noticed something at the bottom. 

A Disclaimer.

A Damn Disclaimer. It was.. 

The to-be wife of THE GREAT SADU AKDU BEDILL RAKSHIT SHERGILL is not STUPID!!! DUMBOS!!

Source of entertainment - Drishti aka Minnie. Or I must say,

Source of entertainment - To be Mrs. Drishti Rakshit Shergill.

I am Framing this!

God, thank you, she is not here to see me, I don't know how I would have controlled to not burst out laughing after reading this.. in front of her.

Wait for a second.. She wrote 'the great' means she was praising me, but then she wrote 'sadu akdu bedill Rakshit Shergill'

Was she insulting me?

Drishtiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Main chodunga nahiiiii tujheeeee!!!

And soon I heard a knock on the door.
