Raghbir - Pata chala? Baat hui?

Women - Haa sir baat hogyi aur pata v chal gya.. Vo school specially abled baccho ke liye hai.. Uski owner ka naam hai Pragati Arora.. Vo apne parents ke saath rehti thi.. But kuch saal pehle ek accident mein unke parents ki death hogyi aur unke pair.. khair.. Tabse unki company aur vo school dono vo hi sambhalti hai..

Raghbir - Aur camp ki baat?

Women - Permission granted.. Aaj hi ek ambulance jaa kar saare baccho ko le aayega.. Phir hum check up shuru karenge...

Raghbir - Meri baat dhyaan se sunlo.. Vo ladki ko mai treat karunga aur mai kon hu kya hu ye kisi ko nahi pata chalna chahiye unme se.. Fine??

Women - Fine sir..(smirks and leaves)

After sometime all the children from the school arrived..
But Raghbir was waiting for someone else.. A few moments later a girl entered wearing an elegant dress and adorable smile, sitting on her stroller with another girl pushing it...

Ankhiyan de kol reh jaane de
Kehna hai jo keh jaane de...

He was lost in her eyes and her smile made his heart beat faster and fastest..  He slowly moved closer to her and finally stood in front of her.. First time without his mask...

Tere khayalon mein beete yeh raatein
Dil mera maange ek hi dua

Pragati looked at him who was totally lost in her.. She gave him a one in billions smile and that brought Raghbir out of his lala land...

Raghbir - Hello.. Raghbir Malhotra.. Owner of this hospital...

Pragati - Hi.. Nice to meet you.. It's so kind of you to organise this free checkup of these cute small children who need it..

Raghbir - It's my pleasure.. Waise bhi hm alag alag orphanage and special schools ke liye ye camp kiya hai.. Aur apke liye toh mai kuch bhi kar sakta hu (he said lostly)

Tu saamne ho aur karun main baatein
Lamha rahe yoon thehra hua

Pragati raised her eyebrows being confused..

Raghbir - Voh I mean.. Aap itna accha kaam kar rahi hai in baccho ke liye.. Toh apke liye toh kuch bhi kar sakta hu mai..
(Sluggishly)

Pragati - Ohh.. Thank you (extra sweetly)

Raghbir - Waise if you don't mind mai chahunga ki aap apna bhi check up karwa ke.. I am sure aap bohot hi jald phirse chalne lagegi..

Pragati - I don't think so it is possible.. Maine aapke hi hospital se apna check up karwaya hai and reports ke accordingly chances nahi h ki mai chal saku..

Raghbir kept quite for a while and then looked towards her..

Raghbir - Listen mai nahi jaanta reports kya the. I believe that I will definitely help you standing on your own feet. Take it a request or an advice. Let me try once..

Pehle toh kabhi yun mujhko na aisa kuch hua, Deewani lehron ko jaise saahil mila...

Dawai ka toh pata nahi par zindagi mein pehli baar mujhe bharosa hai meri duaaon se tum zaroor theek ho jaaogi.. Pehle tumhe theek karna chahta tha taaki apni galti sudhaar lu.. Par ab chahta hu tum mere saath khadi ho zindagi ke har mod par.. I know thoda filmy hogaya par ye sach hai..Mai tum mein iss qadar kho chuka hu ki ab tumhaare liye kuch bhi karne ko taiyaar hu" Raghbir thought as he was sitting in his cabin...

Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

Two weeks had passed and Pragati was in the hospital as her medications were going on.. From tomorrow her treatment and physical activities were about to start. She was a bit scared earlier but the comfy smile that Raghbir gave her everyday during her medications was enough to calm her. She had begun to trust him and his mere presence relaxed her in the hospital as she had never being alone there.. It scared her..

End of chapter!
