CHAPTER 3
MUMBAI
It was 12:30 in the night. Shivaay was driving to home from club. He was partying with his friends to celebrate his last week of vacation before joining college. He was a little bit tipsy. While driving the car, he thinks -
S- Hmm. So today I am early to home. Dad will be really happy that at least I am trying to be responsible.
He was lost in his thoughts when suddenly a man comes in front of his car. Shivaay looses his control over his car and hits the man.
He was totally shocked with the sudden happenings. He was sweating badly. He slowly comes out of the car and looks at the man who was lying on his stomach with blood all around him.
Shivaay was horrified with the scene in front of him.
He runs towards the man and looks his face which was covered with blood.
S- Oh Sh*t! What did I do?
He checked his pulse but it was very slow.
S- I have to take him to the hospital.
He picked up that man and lied him at the back seat of his car. He drove the car with high speed and finally reached the hospital. He puts the man on the stretcher with the help of two ward boys. He moves into the hospital while walking along with the stretcher.
S(shouts)- DOCTOR! DOCTOR!
A doctor comes running towards him. Shivaay looks at the doctor and says-
S- Doctor, please save him.
D- But we can't treat him before filing a FIR, its an accident case.
S- JUST SHUT UP. Start his treatment now. I think you don't know me, I am SHIVAAY SINGH OBEROI. If I want I can cancel the license of this hospital now and you won't be able to do anything.
D- Sorry Sir. (To nurse) Nurse, prepare the OT and take the patient there.
Nurse nods and the man was taken to OT.
Shivaay sits on the chair in front of OT with his hands on his face. He was really tensed because unknowingly it was his fault.
Suddenly his phone starts ringing. He looks at the caller ID, it was Tej. He answers the call-
T(angrily)- Shivaay, where are you? Just look at the time. It is already 1 in the night and there is no trace of you. I thought that you will atleast try to become a little responsible after today's conversation. But no.. There is no effect on you.
Shivaay was listening to him mindlessly and did not uttered a single word.
T- Shivaay, are you even listening to me?
S(whispers)- Dad!
Tej realises that something is wrong with him.
T- Shivaay, where are you and why are you sounding so low?
S- Ci.....Cit..y ....ho....hospi......tal. Acc....accid....accident.
T(panics)- Shivaay, what are you doing at the hospital ? Is everything fine?
But Shivaay stays mum.
T- Ok. Wait there. I am coming there.
After sometime, Tej finally reached hospital along with Jhanvi. He rushes inside and asks at the reception for accident case. The receptionist tells him the direction. Tej and Jhanvi runs towards the OT and notices Shivaay who was sitting there with a tensed expression on his face. They move towards him and sigh in relief to see him fit and fine. Jhanvi sits beside him and caresses his hair. He looks at her and then hugs her tightly.
T- Shivaay, why are you at the hospital and whose accident you were talking about?
Shivaay narrates them everything. Tej was fuming in anger after listening about his carelessness.
At the same time, doctor comes out of the OT.
D- Mr. Oberoi, the patient is out of danger now. He has a injury on his head and a fracture in his leg. We will keep him under observation for 2 days. He won't be able to do any work for atleast 2 months. We have already informed his family and they will be here soon.
T- Thank you so much doctor. Please can you do one more favour on us?
Doctor nods. Tej takes out his checkbook and signs a check of 5 lacs. He handovers the check to doctor and says-
T- Doctor, will you please give this cheque to the family of patient as compensation and please apologise from my side. Give him my phone number and ask them to call me if they need anything.
D- Sure, Mr. Oberoi.
Doctor takes the cheque from him and leaves.
Tej angrily looks at Shivaay.
T- We need to talk, Shivaay. Lets go home.
Shivaay nods and they leave for home.
BHILWARA
It was 4 in the morning. Anika was packing her bag as she has to leave in one hour for Mumbai.
She was finding something in her cupboard. At the same time, Advay and Sunaina enters the room.
Ad- Everything ready, Ani?
A- Yes bhai. Everything is done but I am not able to find the bracelet which you gave me.
Advay takes out something from his pocket and forwards it to Anika.
Ad- Are you finding this ?
ANIKA'S BRACELET
Anika smiles brightly and takes it from his hand.
A- Thanks bhai.
Ad- Tu abhi bhi issey pehanti hai?
A- Aap bhi toh pehente ho.
She looks at his wrist and caresses the bracelet in his wrist.
ADVAY'S BRACELET
Advay smiles at his little sister.
Ad- Do you remember the story behind it?
A- Of course, bhai. How can I forget it? It was 3 years ago when you got job in Jaipur and you were leaving from here. I was crying so badly. Then you made me wear this bracelet and I made you wear that bracelet so that we can always be there for each other even in our absence. And the A in your bracelet refers to Anika and the A in my bracelet refers to Advay.
Advay smiles after hearing her and hugs her tightly.
Sunaina smiles after seeing their bond.
S- Chalo, agar bhai-behen ka pyaar ho gaya ho toh hume station bhi jaana hai Anika ko chodne.
Both nods and breaks the hug.
Ad- Anika, Come downstairs. I will be waiting in the car.
Advay takes Anika's bag and leaves.
Sunaina moves towards Anika and hugs her with tears in her eyes.
S- Anika, tu pehli baar humse itni door ja rahi hai, please apna khayal rakhna aur yahan ki chinta mat karna. Yahan hum sambhal lenge. Aur phone karti rehna.
Anika looks at her mother with teary eyes and nods her head.
S- chalo ab, nahi toh der ho jayegi.
They finally leave for railway station.
Anika sits in the train after listening to all the instructions given by her mother and brother.
The train starts moving and she bids bye to Advay and Sunaina.
A(thinks)- I am going to start a new phase of my life. I just hope that everything goes fine and I will be able to make my family proud especially papa.
PRECAP- Biggest decision in Shivaay's life and Anika finally in Mumbai.
