A/N

Hello people!

Before everything else, I would like to dedicate this chapter to someone.

A person who was there with me from the very beginning of the story and encouraged me in every way to go ahead with it. One of my close friends, my baby sis who apparently used to be a ball of energy and excited about the storyline all the time, pushing me for updates everytime we talked. Yes, we met over internet but had found a unique connection with her in a really short period... She was highly creative and used to have atleast 3-4 stories of her with the plot ready, already in her mind. Alas, she couldn't put them down onto paper...

She left us all this Thursday. May her soul rest in peace... Gone too soon but it was inevitable... Will miss her always, one of the very first reviewer of my first ever story. Idk why and how we lost the touch over months but now I see back, I wish I could have just messaged her when I felt to, picked her call even if I was busy and hear her no-sense ramble about anything and everything...

The body is what departs but the soul is always immortal. The soul connection will never go away and will be there forever. Always in my heart, remembering you with a smile Sassthetic_ hope you are at a better place now, love you! ❤

Wanted to publish this chapter days back but couldn't bring myself to...

Happy reading guys...

Swayam's POV

I was in between a meeting with the board members when my phone rang. It was from mom and I silenced it, guessing it to be something general, concentrating back into the meeting. The phone started vibrating again and I looked at it irritated. The meeting is about to end and these people don't have patience at all. I silenced it once again, getting back into the discussion. Mrs. Sharma's phone rang this time and she looked at me after checking her mobile.

"Sir, it's from your home." She said and my eyebrows shot up, alert. They went to the extent of calling her? Oh my god! Is everything fine? I hurriedly took the phone from her hand and excused myself.

"Hello?" I answered the call but there was just breathing on the other side.

"Swayam..." It was Taani on the other side but what caught my attention is how broken her voice sounded. I sat up straight into my seat and everyone's eyes turned to me.

"Taani? What happened?" I asked, clutching the edge of the table tightly. I hope everyone are alright.

"Swayam, Pia... Pia was found unconscious..." She cried on the other end and I stood up shocked.

"In store room." She added after a few seconds in a whisper and it felt as if the earth shook beneath my feet. I stumbled a little but balanced with the help of the chair and table.

"What? How?" I shouted, running a hand through my hair and glancing around at all the members. Few gave me a understanding smile and one of the elder member nodded and I ran out of the room.

"We... We took her to the hospital Swayam. Please come soon." She sniffed.

"I am on my way." I replied, hanging up on the call and pressed the button of the lift. On seeing it would take time to come down, I turned around and saw my PA jogging towards me. I returned her phone back and she handed over mine. I climbed down the stairs as fast as I could and slid into my car and took deep breathes. No, this is not the time to loose control Swayam. You have to be there for her, be strong for her and your family. I blinked away the blurriness off my eyes and ignited the engine, driving the car out of the parking. I didn't care at what speed I drove but all I knew is I want to reach there as soon as possible. A passer by yelled over when I overtook the car rashly. Damn it! I hope it not to be serious.

"Pia Shekhawat!" I yelled to the receptionist as soon as I rushed to her desk and she jumped in her place. Her eyes went wide in realisation and she gave me the direction to the emergency room. As I approached the room, I saw mom, Taani and dad sitting there with grave expressions. I ran to them and kneeled in front of mom.

"How is she?" I asked but she didn't meet my eyes.

"We don't kn... Know anything, the doctor is still inside, treating her." She replied and sniffed and I held her hand in mine, rising up and sitting between her and Taani who moved to a side.

"How did this happen?" I asked, gulping down the painful lump in my throat and I heard Taani bursting into tears beside me.

"It's... It's all my fault..." She cried and I hugged her closer to me.

"Tell me what happened." I asked again and she sobered up a bit.

"We were decorating the backyard to celebrate your award news and it was all good until Alia popped out of nowhere and whined about dressing her. I had to go to get her ready and that's when I left Pia alone... It's all because of me. I shouldn't have gone leaving her alone there... I shouldn't have." Taani broke down into silent cries again and I calmed her down.

"How did you all find her?" I asked, trying my best to not let my voice break. She detached herself from me and took a deep breath.

"When I was almost done with Alia, I came out of the room to hear a loud clinking sound of a metal falling and ordered the servants to check into it. I walked to the backyard but didn't find Pia anywhere. Panicking, I ran towards the store room and found her lying unconscious there. She was lying in front if your photos Swayam, everything was scattered around and it looked like she had gone across everything in there... I am so scared Swayam... I don't know what happened exactly but whatever I could figure out, it isn't good at all... It isn't good." She shook her head vigorously and the air knocked out of my lungs hearing it.

That means she has seen me and Sharon together, and Sharon is none other than she, herself. Oh no! This is bad, really very bad for her mental state right now. I hugged Taani once again, holding her there till she eased down a little. A couple of tears escaped my eyes but I blinked them back,  not wanting to show my family my distress and make them even more tensed. Just then, the doctor walked out of the doors and I stood up quickly, walking up to him.

"How is she doctor?" I asked and everyone stood up behind me. The doctor looked stressed, not at all happy.

"The patient is in a serious condition right now, it is difficult to say anything... We are doing our best." As soon as the words left his mouth, I felt as if someone just stabbed me. Dad held me by my shoulders from behind and Dr. Gupta came to us, looking disappointed.

"I had said you Swayam, many times at that, that her brain shouldn't be put through a lot of stress! I don't know what happened with her but she had a major seizure and her brain almost blocked the air supply to her lungs. Thank heavens that she was brought at the right time or else we could have lost her..." He said and I trembled standing in the same place and felt somebody stand behind me, supporting me.

"She is not okay right now because her brain has shut down to protect itself. She has slipped into coma and nothing can be said. It's a miracle if she wakes up within next 72 hours or else she will be breathing but it will be as good as she is... Not." He mumbled the last line lowly and walked away, giving a sympathetic pat on my shoulder. His words still rung in my ears and I took baby steps ahead towards the door. I peeked inside and saw her on the ventilator with numerous machines around her and the oxygen mask attached to her face. The scene in front of me alone made me feel to puke.

72 hours

The words kept ringing in my head. I leaned in, touching my head to door and let the tears flow down. I felt a hand on my back and I knew it was mom. I shrugged it off and walked away from the room, from the area and out of the hospital entrance. I didn't know where I was going but I abruptly halted in a lawn.

I felt every last nerve of my self control break down and I fell on my knees, sobbing. We were so happy this afternoon, what happened that changed everything into this horrible situation? My Sharon was smiling and was red with her beautiful blush when I left the house, how did she land up in the hospital by the end of the day?

What did I do wrong God? Where did I go wrong? What wrong did we ever did to anyone that you are making us go through this? Making me go through this? What wrong did she do to put her through so much pain?

I recalled Taani's words and my gut churned by imagining how much painful it would have been for my Sharon to go through all of that. How she must have trembled and shivered and panicked, but I wasn't there for her when she needed me. I am good for nothing if I couldn't take care of one thing of not causing stress to her. I swear if something happens to her, I can never forgive myself...

It's all my fault. She is in this condition here, it's all my fault. It was my own pointless, stupid want of keeping those things with me, in the same house in which we were living. It was obviously a huge risk of her coming across it. How did I not think about this? How could I be so careless? It's my mistake... My shoulders shook as I weeped loudly, grabbing attention of the people passing by but I didn't care who was around.

As good as... Not.

I felt as if someone is piercing my heart a million times at the same time just with the thought of her not being in my life. Not seeing her next to me everyday, not hearing her sweet voice, not able to have her next to me, not feeling her presence with me, all these things sound earth shattering to me. I wouldn't be able to live anymore without her. I will die... I will die along with her this time and put an end to this misery once and for all. I cannot live when she's not with me anymore... 

Please God! Nothing should happen to her. I don't care if she gets her memories back or not, but I want her with me... I want her to live the rest of the life with me, with my family.

"Swayam!" I heard a very familiar shout and quickly wiped my tears, standing back on my feet. I rubbed my cheeks to remove the water out of it and turned around only to see him standing there with concerned expressions on his face.

"Swa-" He started to speak but my control broke again and I pulled him into a hug, breaking down again. I felt his arms wrap around me and he rubbed my back up an down.

"Shhh... Calm down." He whispered and I pulled out, looking at him.

"How? How can I be calm when she is fighting in there Rey?" I asked in between a hiccup and he kept mum.

"Why? Why her? Tell me Rey!" I shouted crying out loud and leaned my head on his shoulder, sobbing quietly. He just stood there, rubbing my back again and again.

"Please handle yourself Swayam... For your family, for her." He said after some time and I pulled back. I looked at him clearly to see his eyes were moist too and cheeks wet.

"You know... The doctor said... Said that if she doesn't wake... Wakes up in 72 hours, she... She..." I couldn't complete it before another sob left my mouth and my legs wobbled beneath me. I was about to fall again but Rey held me tightly and jerked me harshly.

"Hey, Swayam! No! You cannot get this weak right now!" He shook me again and I looked at him through blurry eyes.

"It's all my fault... I kept all those things there, so near to her. This was to happen today or tomorrow. It was so risky but I still kept them there... How... How could I not see this coming! It's... It's my mistake..." I felt a bile rise to my throat and I gulped it down. My hands raised on it's own and I hit myself with it and the pain felt good. I repeated it again. I hate myself for this. I raised it again to hit myself but Rey caught it.

"Are you mad? Get back into your senses Swayam!" He shouted at me and I shook my head vigorously.

"I cannot live without her, I will die along with her... I will die-" I was cut midway by a loud slap on my right cheek and I blinked my eyes rapidly. Did he just slap me? I looked up at him and blinked my eyes, digesting what happened just now.

"Swayam! Do you hear me? You are not at fault!" He yelled at me and I nodded, involuntarily.

"You cannot let yourself be like this... If you loose your sanity, then what will happen to mom, dad and Taani? Who will handle them? Who will look after her when she will wake up and will look for you everywhere? She needs you Swayam... Everyone needs you to be strong right now..." Rey explained with his voice heavy with emotions. His words sunk in and I realised they were not baseless. I nodded, wiping off my tears from my face hastily.

"You are right... I need to be in my control. I need to think properly. I need to be rational." I replied and he pulled me in a soul soothing hug.

"She will be fine Swayam. Trust her to wake up before it's too late, trust God to make everything right... She will be fine." He assured me and that felt as if they were the only words that gave me a sense of courage.

"Be brave and face it Swayam. Everyone needs you." He whispered, patting my shoulder and I nodded, understanding the depth in his words. I quickly fixed my appearance how much ever I could and took deep breaths to calm myself. I have to be strong. I have to be brave.

We walked into the hospital after calming my nerves and approached the ICU corridor. There stood the whole gang, a sad expression on everyone's faces. As we made our way closer to everyone, they stood up and mom rushed to me, hugging me tightly.

"Where did you go like that Swayam? Is the already existing tension any less that you made us worry sick about you?" Mom scolded sniffing and I hugged her back, closing my eyes and holding back my tears from flowing down again. She pulled back and looked at me with concern. I got to know what she wanted to ask and I blinked my eyes assuringly at her. I looked back at everyone and dad nodded in my direction and I returned back the nod. I walked her to the chairs at the side and made her sit, offering her water to drink which she even forced me to drink.

"How is Pia?" I heard a rushed voice and saw Sid run and halt in front of me, huffing for air. I got up and gestured towards the ICU ward.

"She's critical and in coma. She must gain her consciousness within next 72 hours or else..." I trailed off and his eyes widened. I heard another cry at my side and looked over to see Avantika aunty crying leaning against the wall next to her. Uncle supported her and consoled her meanwhile Sid walked upto the ICU door. He didn't move from there even after minutes and I walked upto him, worried for him. I put my palm on his shoulder and he jerked as if he was startled and looked at me with bloodshot eyes.

"I said you to be careful." He spoke and there was a lace of anger in his voice. I lowered my eyes, not able to meet his. I knew it was my carelessness. I was shocked when he grabbed my collar and jerked me ahead.

"I said you to be careful!" He shouted and I looked down again. I have no answers right now, how can I look into his eyes without any guilt? He handed over her to me and what did I do? Brought her here, where she is fighting for her life.

"Sid!" Aunty called him and left me, pushing me a little backwards. I heard him swear and in the next moment, I was pulled into a bone crushing hug.

"I am sorry..." I heard him mumble and I sighed.

"It's okay Sid." I replied genuinely, patting his back and heard him sniff.

"I am so sorry Swayam. I... I just lost it when I saw her like that. I remembered the time when I had brought her to the hospital from the accident and she was exactly like this, lifeless and in coma." He explained and I understood what he might be going through. He loves her so much that it hurt him to see her like this again. And he was not wrong, it was all because of me.

"I am sorry." I muttered and he pushed me back again with a force.

"No! You shouldn't be sorry... It's not your fault." He replied and I shook my head vigorously, denying it.

"It is... It is..." I whispered under my breath walking backwards until I hit the wall and I leaned against it, letting a lone tear slip down my cheeks. I wasn't there for her when she must have been trembling with panic. I wasn't there beside her when she must have collapsed. She might have called for me, but I wasn't there for her... I wasn't.

"No! It's not! It was dumb of me to accuse you Swayam. This was to happen today or tomorrow when she was already living with you... It just happened unexpectedly and no one saw it coming." His words sounded logical and I numbly stared into the blank, not knowing what to say anymore, not wanting to accept his logical reasoning.

"Why there is so much of crowd and noise here? This is a hospital, please follow the protocols and maintain silence." The passerby nurse said and continued on her way. I wiped my eyes,  gulped down the painful lump in my throat and turned to everyone.

"It's late in the night, you all go home. Anyways, they won't allow so many people to stay back. Go and take rest, I will stay." I said, my voice coming out as hoarse as ever.

"How-" Mom started but I quietened her with my look.

"Please go home mom. Dad, Taani please care of yourselves and mom, I will be fine here." I said looking over at Taani and she gave me a reassuring nod. I approached our gang standing there.

"Guys-" I started but I need not say anything at all to them.

"Take care Swayam. If anything, inform us right away." Vicky said and I nodded. Only then I noticed Simmi standing there with a grave expression. I looked at her, trying to convey that everything will be alright but she took couple of steps ahead and hugged me suddenly. I was taken aback a little but hugged her back nonetheless.

"She will be fine right?" She asked in a broken voice.

"She will be... She has to be..." I replied, patting the back of her head, not sure whether I was assuring her or myself. She pulled away and again nodded. I looked back at everyone and they had empathetic look on their faces. I felt blessed to have so many people close to us who actually want our wellbeing.

"Take care." Rey said, a secret warning in his eyes, daring me to blame myself again or behave like what I did a few minutes ago, again. I nodded at him and he hugged me briefly. They took a leave and even mom, dad and Taani left after sometime. Sid wanted to stay back but I sent him reasoning with aunty's health and he agreed. He said he would come tomorrow morning when I will have to go home and freshen up. I heaved a deep sigh and sat down on the seater outside the ICU room, hoping that the wait will not be much long, praying that she will wake up soon.

_____

She was laying there, as pale as ever, surrounded with various machines. Her body wrapped in dull hospital gown, making her look sick with just the colour. Everything around her gives out negative, uninviting vibes that makes my head spin just by looking at it. My eyes are sore with no blink of sleep, longing to see you waking up or atleast responding something. My ears are alert to hear you call my name once again in your sweet voice. My nose yearning to smell your scent again. My mouth desperate to be kissed by you... Please, please Sharon, wake up... For me, for your Swayam. You cannot give up now, I am not allowing you any options. You have to wake up today... Get up love! Open your eyes!

I was staring at her unconscious form, silently praying for her to wake up. when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up and found Sid standing in front of me.

"Got some sleep last night?" He asked making me frown. I looked around and realised that it was morning already. I shifted a little to the side on the couch, groaning in pain because of my muscles which have become sore for sitting in the same position for hours.

"I guess not." Sid answered for himself and sighed, sitting beside me.

"Here, take this." He forwarded a cup of coffee to me and I took it without much tantrum. I need this in my system right now. We drank coffee in silence, the room pin drop quite except for the beeping sound of the various life supporting machines.

"Did you look at yourself? Messy, uncombed hair sticking out in different directions, bags under your red eyes, your face as tired and exhausted as ever and your cheeks slightly rashed by excessive rubbing. What have you made of yourself Swayam?" Sid asked in a soft tone and a humourless chuckle left my mouth.

"What do you think?" I asked back, shrugging, trailing my eyes back to her. Every time I am seeing her like this, it feels like someone is stabbing my heart continuously.

"Don't do this to yourself Swayam. Don't." He whispered and I shook my head.

"What do you expect me to do then?" I asked getting up and keeping the empty cup on the table.

"What day it is?" I asked him in a clipped tone. I heard him sigh again and shuffle closer to me.

"Third day..." He spoke in a low voice.

"And she has still shown no signs of recovery... How do you expect me to be Sid?" I muttered the last line under my breath and ran a frustrated hand through my hair. Its been almost 59 hours and still she hasn't opened her eyes. Just 13 hours more for her to live in that state. 13 hours that will decide our fate... Only 13 hours left...

"Anyways, I got to use washroom." I excused myself from the dreading conversation and stepped out of the room but not before stealing a longing look at her. Every muscle in my body protested against the movement due to tiredness. The room, this hospital, everything seems suffocating to me.

I decided to take a break of few minutes and walked out of the hospital doors, breathing in the fresh air. I squinted my eyes because of the sharp light of sun falling on my sleepless eyes, feeling a bit dizzy but got adjusted to it after a while. Today is the day that will change my life forever. Either she wakes up or I join her, anything can happen.

I walked back into the hospital and towards her room. Just as I opened the door and looked up, I froze in my spot with what was happening in front of my eyes. I can't believe this! Oh god! Snapping out of my shocked trance, I rushed to her side and held her by shoulders.

"Pia! Don't get up, lay down... You need rest." I said and she looked up at me. At that moment when I saw her eyes full of life, I could feel my heartbeat begin to thrive again as if it wasn't there a few minutes ago. I felt every nerve in my body jump alive. My vision went blurry and I blinked away the moisture in them. Why there is no one here? Where the fuck are everyone?

"Doctor! Nurse! Sid!" I yelled at them, immediately pressing the call button beside her bed and Sid came rushing into the room. He stood there at the door, probably shocked just like me. I looked back at her but she averted her gaze and jerked away from my hands, lying down on her own. I was about to ask her the reason behind her actions but the doctor arrived and I went and stood beside Sid, letting the doctor do his work. I glanced at Sid in between to see him wiping off the tear from the corner of his eyes. I put my arm across his shoulder and rubbed his arm. We looked at each other, a light smile of relief spreading over our faces.

"I will call and inform everyone." Sid said, fishing out his phone and walking out of the room. The doctor was done checking up her vitals by then and he approached me.

"She is absolutely fine now, young man!" He said, patting my shoulder and a fresh wave of relief washed over me all over again. Thank god!

"When can we take her home?" I asked, getting restless to take her out of this depressing room as soon as possible.

"We have a few tests to run and if everything is normal, we can discharge her by this afternoon itself." He replied, smiling at me and taking a leave. I couldn't control my lips from tugging upwards anymore. She is fine. She is conscious and right in front of me. She is absolutely fine! I walked to her side and sat on the stool while the nurse was giving her some injection. Her bed, elevated into a comfortable half-sitting position now.

I took her hand between my palms and immediately felt her shiver. She also made a small protest to retreat her hand back. It wasn't what she would usually do but I shook it off, taking it to be the reaction from the injection. A few minutes later, the nurse left too and I finally felt like I can breathe. I got up as soon as the nurse was out and threw my hands around her.

I hugged her tightly and nuzzled my nose in her hair, registering this feeling again into my brain. Her, in my arms... It felt like ages from the last time I had her in my arms. I don't care she remembers being Sharon or not. She is here at this moment and everything feels alright. I pulled out and kissed all over her face, from her forehead to her chin and hugged her again...

"Thank god you woke up! Good heavens! You are okay, love! You are okay!" I exclaimed, kissing the side of her head.

"I... I was shit scared for you... Don't ever scare me like that Sh... Pia." I chocked out, almost blurting out her name but quickly adjusted it. I cannot do that. I don't know what is her mental state right now, so I can't take any kind of risks with her from now. I weaved my fingers in her hair and pulled her even more closer if possible. A couple of tears escaped my eyes but it doesn't matter to me. I separated myself from her and cupped her face between my palms.

"I love you, you get that? I love you! Don't ever think of leaving me..." Again. I wanted to add but gulped down the words and looked at her lively face to my heart's content. She looked vulnerable but blank. She was just looking at me and had a face which was very difficult to decipher. Her eyes were also guarded. She wasn't even smiling and that made me worry. Is something wrong? What is she thinking about? Is something stressing her out again? Ain't she happy that she made it?

I opened my mouth to ask about it to her but before I could even speak a word, the door burst open and in came the voices of our family members. I retreated my hands and looked away, subtly wiping off the tears from my face. I stood up from the bed and in the next second, aunty hugged her tightly, followed by Sid and uncle and my family. I took a few steps back, letting everyone meet her one by one. I noticed that she had a neutral expression and was showing neither happiness nor any other emotion. She was very quite, giving small smiles occasionally which I could easily make out to be forced and fake.

I turned to the side to look who's entering now, hearing the sound of the door opening. It was Mr. Gupta and I couldn't be more relieved. I immediately approached him and he greeted me with a smile.

"Congratulations, she is all okay now." He wished, looking over at her once and back at me.

"Thank you... But please check her once. She has been acting weird since she woke up." I said him my concern and he frowned.

"Weird in what way?" He asked.

"She is not reacting to anything with any emotion, like she is blank or something. She has been abnormally quite since she woke up." I said and he nodded, glancing at her.

"It's good that you observed and told me about it. I will look into it and let you know." He said and walked upto her, everyone making space for him. He excused from us a few minutes and we all walked out. Mom immediately hugged me and I felt light hearted in a long time. Taani and Dad followed the suit and their happiness could be seen on their faces. We heard approaching footsteps and saw Rey and Simmi running towards us.

"How is she?" Rey asked, huffing for air and I gave him a reassuring smile.

"She's okay. Dr. Gupta is inside, checking up on her." I replied and was tackled with a bone crushing hug the next moment. I chuckled, hugging him back.

"I said you she is a fighter! She will be fine!" He said proudly.

"Yes... Yes." I replied, patting his back.

"I am so happy!" Rey said after he let go of me and I nodded in agreement.

"I am happy too..." I smiled back at him and looked over at Simmi. She took small steps towards me and hugged me lightly for a second or two before pulling away.

"We finally get to see you smiling, eh?" She exclaimed and I scratched the back of my neck, having no reply.

"Where are everyone else?" I asked Rey, changing the flow of the conversation.

"They decided to meet her at home instead, not wanting to crowd the hospital like the other day." He explained and I agreed that it was the best thing to do. Mr. Gupta walked out of the room at the same time and we all turned to him.

"Everything is alright, no need to worry." He assured smiling and all of them rushed back into the room again. I stayed back to talk with him about my concerns and he understood it.

"Swayam, she has just woken up from coma minutes ago. It's normal for the patients to act this way. It is the trauma that is hovering over her. She will get normal in some days." He answered my unasked question and I sighed in relief.

"Her... Her memory?" I asked, stuttering in between and he gave me a sympathetic look.

"I am afraid it's same like before... No improvement..." He replied and I felt a pang hit my heart hard. So much happened and still, my Sharon doesn't seem to remember anything. Why? Is it something too much to ask for? I know I said I didn't care about it but I did care at some corner of my heart and it pains knowing this. I pushed off the pain with the relief of atleast having her safe and alive.

"But we don't know what went down with her in the store room, Swayam... Though she might not remember anything yet but her mind has been put through a severe stress. I would suggest to you, if possible, to be as much as away from her as you can for coming few days..." He said and I felt my breathe stuck up in my throat.

"How... I mean, Mr. Gupta-" I started but he cut me off.

"I know, I know it's difficult for you, especially when she is back from a fight between life and death but if you want her back to normal soon, you have to do it. It's because you are her past and anything related to it can tip her off again into trauma..." He said and I nodded, understanding his stand but it still pained me to think of being away from her. After everything that happened, all I want to do is to keep her close to me and never leave her side.

"Thank you so much!" I said from the bottom of my heart and he smiled at me, patting my shoulder.

"It's my duty. You have to be extremely careful and aware now... Don't stop her from doing anything and let her be herself and don't force her to do anything else either. See to it that this doesn't repeat again at any cost." He warned me with his look and left. I sighed, running my hand through my hair and rubbing my face off the tension before entering the room. All of them made the suffocating room, a lively one. They joked around, made her smile and she had started to have small talks with them too. Hearing her sweet voice after these dreadful days felt nothing less than a lullaby to me. I was glad to see her like this and didn't disturb her.

Instead, I distracted myself with the paperwork of her discharge and talking with the doctor about her medications and everything. Soon, it was time for her discharge and to say I was on cloud nine would be an understatement. The doctor just informed me and I rushed to her room with a big childish smile on my face.

"We can take her home!" I announced and everyone were extremely happy with it.

"I can't wait to take her home." Mom said, caressing the top of her head. Suddenly, what Mr. Gupta had said flashed in my mind and I got equally tensed on how to comply with that now.

"Mom, if you won't feel bad, I would like to spend a few days with Sid, mom and dad in their house..." Pia said out of the blue and the room fell into a pin drop silence.

So... How was it? Don't beat me up please! *hides behind the door*

Will Pia recover from the trauma or will this distance them even more and become something serious?
