Nihan supported dev raj khanna before he fell.
"Nurse.." Nihan cried out for help. Moments later the nurse came running. Nihan gave first aid to the old man. Dev Raj Khanna's chest was rising up and down with the help of an oxygen mask.
Nihan informed Dr. Barish khan and soon he reached there and examined the old man.
"Prepare the O.T" He commanded in a harsh tone.
"But doctor.. Dr. Michael and Dr. Sebastian are on the way." Nihan reminded him.
"We don't seem to have that much time in our hands. If surgery is not done now, then there will be no need for it. " Dr. Barish Khan said, shaking his head.
Nihan looked at the face of the old man. she felt like something was connecting her to him. Some sort of affection which is beyond explanation. Until just some minutes ago, the burning passion in those eyes was flowing into her heart. She could not look further into that face. It is as if something was creating a thorn of depression inside.

The mixture of colours are glistening and becoming more and more intense with sparkling lights. Modern music is filled with the air. Feliz was sitting in a corner of evening club having drinks. Her eyes were constantly searching for someone among dancing shadows.
Within half an hour, the number of glasses went up on the desk in front of her. She got up and walked toward the dance floor. She joined into the group of black shadows, with restless rhythm. As a result of the drunkenness, her tired body shook uncontrollably. Occasionally she turned her head back and forth along with the rhythm. Her lips curled up in delight.
Suddenly, two hands slid through her waist. She was drunk too much that she didn't notice it at first. She looked back at him with a bit of anger as he embraced her again. Her half-closed eyes were wide open as she saw the man in front of her in the dim light. like the result after a long wait, she hugged him tightly with uncontrollable happiness.

"Mom.. please.. I am alright. Will u please be calm." Abhay took a hand from the steering wheel and blocked Minakshi from feeding him medicine.
"Shut up and eat this tablets.. If not, it will get infected."
"Mom, i am driving.. "
"I told you not to drive with your wounded hand. It was enough to call a driver. "
"I am not a kid Mom. I am the chairman of a large business network. I didn't call the driver because I know that you will treat me like a child in front of him. " Abhay looked at her angrily.
"Children are always the same for parents, no matter how big they are. So, come on drink this fast. " Minakshi forcibly put the medicine in his mouth paying no attention to his unpleasant face. in additional, she extended the bottle of mineral water to him. He drank it and asked. "Done.. Are you happy now?"
In response, Minakshi laughed out loud. Abhay wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at her with a question mark on his face.
"I wonder, if there is a woman on earth who can rule you..."
Abhay didn't reply anything. He gazed with an hopeless eyes at the long - long road in front of him.

Nihan felt like the path to the Operation Theater is very long. something disturbed her mind when she looked at the man lying on the stretcher with the help of an oxygen mask.
What has changed in the last ten minutes?
An unknown person, Why did he treat me like he knew me? what made him so close to me?
An unspeakable desire was rising in her heart to find an answer to all of this. she felt very sad for the old man for no reason.
The cold doors of the Operation Theater were opened. The nurses pushed the stretcher inside. Dr Harshad and Meera approached Nihan, who was still standing there with a frozen look at the closing door of the operation theatre.
"What happened?" Mira's voice woke her up.
"Minor attack" she replied.
"Oh no.. in his condition, it is very dangerous"
Harshad groaned with disappointment.
"What did doctor Barish say?" Mira asked.
"To operate.." Nihan said and stared at the closed door again.
"Now?" Dr.Harshad asked Nihan with disbelief. Nihan turned to look at them and nodded yes with her head.
