Recovery

We go to the small canteen on the ground floor and take two cups of coffee. I take a sip.. it's tastes disgusting. I look up at Randhir and he too has made a really weird face. He looks funny. He catches me looking at him and we both laugh. "Is coffee ke saamne khud ki bimari chhoti lage." he says and I chuckle.

Later I go to the bank and remove one lakh rupees from our account. Now there is really very less money left in the bank. I sigh. Thanks to Dr. Nayar that he talked to the authorities and reduced the cost of treatment. Actually thanks to Randhir. He is still in the hospital. I asked him to stay there while I come here. I would just have a major breakdown if he wasn't around. My mood is so much better since Dr Nayar came for the check up and told me that Daadi will be conscious by evening. After that, I came here. I take the money and safely put it in my purse.

When I again reach the hospital I am exhausted. On the way back Vidushi, Parth and Tanya had called and scolded me for not informing them about Daadi's condition. They kept insisting to help me financially and were adamant in coming here for my help. It was so difficult to persuade them not to come since daadi is out of danger. It was a good 30 minutes phone call. On the way back I grabbed a sandwich for Randhir. Randhir's face during that horrible coffee comes to my mind. I smile to myself.

I go to the cardiology department and see that Randhir has a small girl on his lap and she is drawing something on Randhir's palm. She is just 2-3 years old and is wearing a blue dress that all the patients wear. My heart sinks to see her in that. She is concentrating hard on his hand and Randhir has a wide grin on his face.

As I approach them Randhir looks up at me. "Dekho ye hai vo" Randhir tells the little girl pointing at me and she looks up at me and smiles shyly. I wonder what he told her about me.

"Sayuta didi" she says and grins. Randhir chuckles. Suddenly a lady comes and she runs towards her.

"Mummaaaa" that lady picks her up and she mouths thank you to Randhir.

What's going on?

"Bye Landhil" she waves enthusiastically and they leaves.

I sit beside him and give him the sandwich. "Kon thi ye" I ask.

"Minnie.. cute hai na?" I nod. "Tumne khaaya?" He asks. I nod again.

Actually I have not eaten but I am sure he will make me eat and I am really not hungry. "Uski mummy yaha test ke liye aayi thi and unhe dawaai lene jaana tha bahar. So I offered ke tab tak mai khayal rakhunga. She is such a sweet heart. Dekho mera haath" she shows me his palm. A smiley is made with a pink sketch pen. I chuckle. He is good with kids.. because ofcourse he is one of them. A sight of Randhir with kids is really attractive.

A nurse goes inside and I see that she is examining daadi and writing something on a pad. When she comes out I ask her what's wrong. "Sab thik hai. Ab unko general ward me shift kiya jaayega. Unka blood pressure normal ho gaya hai. Kisi bhi wakt hosh aa jaayega" she says, way too sweetly, because of Randhir I guess.

She was talking to me but she turned her eyes towards Randhir atleast 20 times. I roll my eyes.

But I am so happy.

Later I sit beside daadi in the general ward. I can't wait to talk to her. Doctor has told us that she will be discharged tomorrow evening or the day after depending on her recovery. I am so relieved. Suddenly there is a movement in daadi's fingers and she opens her eyes. She looks at me and takes in the surrounding and again her eyes fix on me. She gives me a smile..

Ahh there she is! My superwoman.
