Will's POV
Hospital was never so dead quiet ever in my life. But when I bought Riya in the nearest hospital, it felt like there was no one else other than me and her body lying down on bed motionlessy. I know we had a fight and I don't think I was wrong in any manner. She told she wanted to be alone forever when the isolation kills her. She was about to do a crazy shit thing and I was explaining her how wrong she was but suddenly she started to tremble and in another second she blacked out. "Riya..... Riya wake up!" I tried to wake her but she didn't. We were in hospital emergency room waiting for CT scan reports. Doctor said she had cardiac arrest and high blood pressure. Oh my god! She was concluded with heart conditions but why do I found that obvious. Of course she'd gone through alot in past few days and that could've been did a lot of things to her heart that she never noticed it was dying inside. Riya was still unconscious when Dr. Smith called me. "Hello doctor." I entrered his office with a faint disdain. I never had great experiences with hospitals and doctors but today the situation was different. "Yes please. Can I ask what relation do you have with the patient. I mean, you wrote friend so you're not patient's family." the Dr. Smith ask for her family but what should I tell him. "Um, actually she has no family. They're dead not long ago. Infact she was depressed because of that." I told everything without keeping a word. "Oh! So it seems obvious for her to be this sick. At least she's brave to be alive but we gotta problem here. These are patient Riya's CT scan reports. She's been diagnosed with cardiac myxoma. This is common kind of benign tumor which is found mostly in women. See here, her left artery, a small pea sized spot. It indicates this is initial stage and that is only good thing here." my heart sank while hearing about her. "Doctor, 409 is gaining conscious." it was Riya's ward. "I guess we should talk about it with her." and I nodded. We headed to the Riya's ward to find her awake already trying to figure out everything. Her gaze soften the moment she saw me. "Hey Riya! How you're feeling?" Dr. Smith asked her. "I don't know. Feeling a bit of chest pain, I guess." she looked so pale and lifeless. "Let me check." doc checked her. "It looks fine now. The medicine will help." she tried to sit up. "No don't move. You should rest more. Uh! Shall we start?" Riya shot a confused look. "Yeah. The sooner the better." I exclaimed. "So as I was saying Miss Riya, you've been diagnosed with cardiac myxoma." as doc started to tell her everything I observed her face getting longer and longer. She was upset and more than worried. "... So as per your friend said, you've been coping with your tragedy, I'm sorry to hear that but it seems like that can be the primary reason for your sickness. But don't worry! It can be cured very soon and most importantly as this is being an initial stage, it even eliminates the chances of surgery. In today's date we have the medical treatment that can cure you forever. Just you've to focus more on yourself and you've to forget about your past. Stress is really gonna kill you. So make sure you won't stress yourself." doc explained everything.
"Ree, I bought your meds!" I announced loudly but she was still in daze. I dropped her in her apartment to buy meds and everything she needed. It was past midnight and the world was asleep already. Riya was standing in balcony looking at god knows what. I poured both of the glasses with the most needed red wine and headed to her. "Hm!" holding the glass infront of her face I signaled her to drink. "Doc said, red wine is good for heart. Till then black beans and rice is getting ready." she looked up emotionlessly. "Thanks!" the only word left her mouth since she arrived home. "For what?"
"for everything.... Everything you did."
"Why are you sounding like 'good bye'" I squeezed my eyes to analyze her thinking. "That's what I meant. Will, enough is enough! Go on with your life now. Go away from me. I won't be able to give you anything than hurtings, so it's to give up now than to regret it later. And..."
"Okay just shut up! Stop talking shit about you. I'm listening that doesn't mean go on and talk shit about anything. So shut the fuck up and focus on your rest. My life is my concern, don't worry bout that." I bursted out on her face. "That's what I'm saying Will, "my life is my concern, don't worry bout it"" saying that her eyes welled up. "Ri..."
"I'm starving. Beans and rice smells so good. Jezzzz! Look at that. Ummmmm! So delicious! Mark my words Will your wife is gonna be the luckiest woman in this world for having you with all of these qualities you have. I'm gonna miss this forever!" she enjoyed her beans and rice, but her farewelling attitude was highlighted on my heart that she wanted to push me away from her, forever? That thought ate my appetite. She tried her best to mask her face with fake happiness but the grief still visible enough to break my heart into thousand pieces. I wasn't able to take in her drama so without saying anything I left her apartment. I landed my painful ass on the couch and never knew when my dreams got me.
"Will! Will wake up! Will.... Riya's gone nuts." Hud's voice bombarded in my brain. "What the hell?" stood up forced my ass to stand up. "Riya's on treadmill with dangerous speed. She's trying to kill herself." this thing shook metabolism to wake up. "What!?"
"Yes, and you can only stop her. She's not listening anyone." he continued with disdain. "what the hell is wrong with her brains? I'm gonna fucking kill her." taking long steps I entrered like strom and pulled off the machine. "What the fuck! ..... Hey!" she screamed but I carried her to her bed. "If you tried to carry out any of that stunts ever again then you'll face the my demon and I'm good at showing no mercy." I hissed popping her eyes out and pinning her down on headboard. She glared back but her body shivered and winced in horror. Her innocent gesture bought me back, that when I let go her arm. "What the hell was that?" I growled. "I thought cardio was good for heart." taking deep breaths to cool down my temper I sat up without cutting the eye contact.
