Recap: Rehman regain his conscious and explain Goutham about everything that happened.

*****************

After hearing everything that happened from Rehman Goutham wanted to do all the final rites for Bala so he called the inspector to plan for it.

Inspector: Is Mithra awake ?

Goutham: Not yet but I called you for something else. I just got to know that one of the body is a male and it is my men or should I say he was like my brother. 

Inspector: yes, you got my message but we haven't made any official statement yet.

Goutham: that was good for me now. I want you to get any unclaimed dead body from the mortuary and declare that as Raghini's and for the male declare that as my wife. I will claim the body tomorrow to do his final rites.

Inspector: But what should I do with Raghini's burnt body ?

Goutham: She doesn't deserve anything so I will have my men collected it to throw away in the sea.

Inspector: You often forget that I m an Inspector and talk like I m your henchman. 

Goutham: You speak as if you don't do anything against your rules to save the public and innocent. I know how many encounters you have done without your department's knowledge just because you felt it was right. 

Inspector: Alright, everything will be taken care of. 

Goutham cut the call and went to Mithra and saw the doctor checking her.

Doctor: Goutham, we should take her to hospital for further diagnosis. She should have been awake an hour ago. 

Goutham: I will talk to my doctor and he will help us to treat her confidentially in his hospital.

In the next one hour Goutham spoke to his doctor and an ambulance arrived at their location. Mithra and Rehman were shifted Mithra in the ambulance and Goutham caught Doctor's hand.

Goutham: I will never forget this help you have done to us. I have informed the police to declare the opposite of what has happened so you don't panic when you get to see the news in the morning. Once all the threats to Mithra's life is cleared I will come to meet you along with her. She is very kind hearted and caring person and would love to meet you and your wife. We will be forever grateful to you. I will be more than happy to be helpful to you in anyway possible. My doors are open for you anytime.

Doctor: Its my duty as a doctor to save lives and I have done that. Moreover I m happy to see your unconditional love for your wife. May you both live happily together and forever. And Call me once you reach the hospital and let me talk to the doctor to give the information on the first aids given to her. 

Goutham nodded his head and then turned to Selvam and him in a hug. Later he gave his personal card to him.

Goutham: Selvam, ungalukku eppo enna venum nalum enna vandhu parunga. Neenga yennoda life romba important person. ( Selvam, please come to anytime if you need anything. You are an important person in my life )

Selvam: Sir, neenga nalla irunga podhum. unga wife ku sari ayiduchu nu mattum thagaval sollunga podhum. ( Sir, your well being is enough for me. Just give me information when your wife gets well )

Goutham hummed and hugged him before he got in the ambulance with his face covered in a mask. Soon the ambulance zoomed off and reached the hospital. Both the doctors had a conversation and soon Mithra was taken for some test immediately and Goutham stopped Rehman from following him and rather let him to stay in the doctor's cabin to rest but Rehman was adamant and followed Goutham.

Early in the morning doctor completed the test on Mithra and Goutham was hell of nervous to hear from the doctor. 

Doctor: Goutham, all the reports are normal. She is perfectly fine and even the baby is doing good.

Goutham: then why is she not awake ?

Doctor: I have called a neurologist to check her but he is out of state and will be here by tomorrow evening only. We don't have any other neurologist whom we can trust to keep Mithra's identity as secret.

Rehman: We have neurologist. I will call him and he will be here in an hour so don't worry about it.

Rehman immediately called the doctor and made sure he will reach at the earliest possible. In the meanwhile the inspector called Goutham.

Goutham: Yeah, is everything done ? 

Inspector: I have taken care of everything. I can make an announcement only after you arrive here.

Goutham: I will be there  by 9 in the morning. By 8.00 give a call to my father and convey the same information to him so that everything goes by plan.

Inspector: You want to keep this from your family too ?

Goutham: As of now yes. I m not risking anymore so please go with my plans.

Inspector: Alright, don't delay and make it up to the time you mentioned.

Goutham cut the call and immediately his mobile started ringing with Chandru's name but he cut the call without answering to avoid any questions from any of them.

The neurologist arrived and started examining Mithra with couple of test and with the reports he approached Goutham.

Neurologist: Goutham, your wife is physically fine but mentally not. Medically we call this sort of catatonia. That is a person's inability or an unwillingness to respond due to Severe depression. In simple words your wife's brain has hit extreme stress and emotions that she couldn't handle so she has shut down herself to be away from this worldly happenings.

Goutham: what should we do to cure her ? Please do something to get her to normal state. I can't see her lying unconscious like this.

Neurologist: I will prescribe medicines for her but again we cannot give any strong medications considering her being pregnant. But you can cure her. Talk to her, keep her engaged in every conversation you have with the people around you, bring back every happy moments you shared with her, give her the hope that she is safe to get back to the real world and if you ask me if she can hear you then yes...she can hear every word you speak to her but she will only not respond.

Goutham: Excuse me...

He got up and entered the washroom and clutched his hair in frustration and started punching the wall repeatedly until his knuckles started bleeding.

Goutham: I failed you again Mithra. I m sorry Mithra... I landed you in this state. But I will do everything to get you back to normal. 

He splashed water on his face and returned to the room where doctors and Rehman were waiting for him. Rehman immediately noticed Goutham's bleeding knuckled and gestured the doctor to aid him. 

Goutham: Does she need any medical support if I consider to take care of her at my place ?

Neurologist: No support system but she must be connected on IV so you may have a nurse to take care of them and I can also have a track of her improvement and medical details through her.

Goutham: That sound good. Arrange for nurse who can be trusted and should stay until Mithra recover completely. She will not be allowed outside my home, she will have no contact with outside world. She will be given food and room to stay and she can demand any amount for her stay to take care of my Mithra. Rehman...inform one of our guards to get a car with a yellow number plate and let him wait for us by the whip grove near beach house.

Rehman: I can manage for half day and even change the IV bottles but make sure you get a nurse by the time. You can message me her address and I will have her picked up by our men. Give her every medicine and injections packed properly.

Once they were done with all conversations Goutham covered his face with mask and Mithra was shifted to the ambulance. This time instead of the driver Goutham drove the ambulance and Rehman stayed with Mithra.

They arrived by the whip grove and saw one of their waiting with a car. Rehman opened the door and Goutham carried Mithra to the back seat and laid her carefully while Rehman gave instructions to the guard.

Rehman: Drive this ambulance back to the hospital and continue your mission to search Mithra until you hear from me.

Guard left driving the ambulance and Goutham drove the car to the beach house. On reaching their second home Rehman made sure all the CCTV were off first before Goutham carried Mithra to their bedroom and laid her on the bed. Rehman adjusted the IV stand and he checked if the line was clear.

Goutham: Rehman, go rest for sometime and I will call you before I leave to the mortuary. 

Rehman took a guest room in the ground floor and laid on the bed but sleep was far as he still kept reminiscing the incidents from the previous day. 

Goutham kissed her baby bump and laid next to her placing his palm over her bump and his face nuzzled in her neck.

Goutham: I m sorry Mithra. I failed to protect you for the second time. I should have not gone leaving you alone. I m so sorry my sunshine. Its been 18 hours I heard your voice Mithra. Wake up and talk to me twinkle. It hurts a lot to see you like this. 

He closed his eyes and felt her presence with him and inhaled her fragrance to calm his mind to think rationally and plan everything.  He slept holding her and two hour later he woke up and saw Rehman changing the IV bottle.

Rehman: Its time boss, you should leave before Inspector call you to remind again. And by the way will it be ok if we call Sridhar and his wife to work here ?

Goutham: Not today, we shall handle for 2 or 3 days and then we can call them here. Lets not give into any doubts for anyone. I will be back after finishing final rites for Bala until then stay with Mithra and don't leave this room. Make a clear check on the nurse before you let her in the room. Strictly no devices are allowed to her.

Rehman: Sure boss. I won't ask you to trust me anymore after letting you down but still I will take care of Mithra.

Goutham: Rehman, my trust in you will never fade so stop blaming yourself for what happened. 

Goutham took one of his car which he had at beach house and started driving towards the government hospital. 

Ravichander, Shylaja, Chandru and Nithya were at Kavitha's home after she was discharged from the hospital late night. Kavitha was still sobbing and Raghuvaran hadn't spoken a word to anybody and sat like a lifeless body except for the tears that never stopped from his eyes. Chandru sat next to Vinay and consoled him to be strong.

Everyone had a hope in the corner of their heart that whatever Goutham said would be true and Mithra would be alive, returning home with Goutham. Shylaja was leaning on Ravi's shoulder and sobbing.

Everytime Ravi and Chandru tried to reach Goutham their call was declined. Now when Ravi's started ringing with call from the inspector everyone gathered around him hoping for a positive answer that Mithra was found alive. With heavy heart still with some hope Ravi answered the call on speaker mode.

Ravi: Inspector, did you find Mithra ?

Inspector: Sorry sir, doctors have confirmed that the bodies are of 2 female and one is your daughter in law and the other is Raghini who kidnapped Mithra. I have informed Goutham and he is on way. Once Goutham is here we will make an official announcement and papers will be ready to take her body.

Ravi cut the call and like the sky had fallen on their head everyone started crying and Kavitha started hitting Raghuvaran on his chest that he was the reason for losing Mithra. If he had accepted her then nothing would have happened to her.

Ravi: Chandru, arrange for guards and take everyone to mansion. Make all the arrangements at mansion. I will go to hospital. Raghuvaran shall we go ?

Raghuvaran did not speak a word and just followed Ravi to his car and they drove to the hospital. Goutham arrived at the hospital and covered his face with mask and the cops escorted him to a private room. In a few minutes all the social media and new channel had only one news.

" Police and doctors have confirmed that the body recovered was identified as Mithra wife of businessman Goutham Ravichander. Earlier he had denied that his wife should be alive but doctors had provided evidences and reports declaring the death of wife of the young business man who recently tied knot to the love of his life. The heart breaking part is that Mrs.Mithra was 5 months pregnant. All our prayers to Mr. Goutham and his family"
