In the morning Priya tries to leave the bed but Sumin won't let her go.
Priya: Common I have to go. I got work.
Sumin: I won't I want you to sleep more don't go.
Priya: My aunt will kill me for sure so please let me go.
Sumin: Huh.
Priya: Don't huh me.
Sumin let go of Priya. Priya and Sumin are at the dining table for breakfast.
They just started to have breakfast Head Maid Asha arrives.
Asha: Aren't you told to don't eat after the sun sets? Only on special occasions and meetings you do eat after the sun sets.
Priya: I-
Sumin interrupts.
Sumin: It was me I came in the night so was hungry.
Asha: Ma'am if you needed anything you should have told me. I'm here to serve.
Priya thinks "For real?! Do you even know how to serve?"
Sumin: Oh that's so generous of you thank you. I will keep that in mind for next time. That you are a servant to serve us. You may go and do your work now Chief MAID Asha. You must be busy as maids have a lot of work to do.
After Asha leaves.
Sumin: Did she use cameras to know someone ate?
Priya: We don't have cameras in places where the family get together and needs privacy.
Sumin: Then how?
Priya: My fault I didn't clean the dishes.
Sumin: You do dishes?
Priya: Well when I eat late at night secretly.
Sumin: I don't even keep my dishes servants do it it's their job after all.
Priya: It's not that in my Villa servants are reckless. When I was a kid servants kids also used to assist so I could have company.
Sumin: "They are servants no need to be family with them." I was taught so it's new for me to know.
Priya: Different life we live.
The atmosphere becomes a bit awkward now. Sumin and Priya had their breakfast and Priya went to work.
Because of the recent incident, Priya became the circle of attention. People are talking about how she is taking advantage of her family's power. Priya decided to ignore it all but the way the staff was treating her was not right. Priya was thinking about tomorrow's heads meeting of the hospital. She knew she did not do anything wrong but what she did was on media and the media is questioning to hospital.
There are snakes inside and Priya is fully aware of it.
Priya and Tista are hanging out on the roof.
Priya: So what everyone is talking about me?
Tista: A rich bitch.
Priya: Oh okay. So that's how people have been looking at me. Nothing new.
Tista: Yeah I guess but I know the truth so it annoys me. Even if you are from a wealthy family still do hard work. I know you don't care about the rumours but they do somehow affect you. That's why you are seeing a therapist. Well, talking about a therapist how is Priyanshi reacting to the current situation?
Priya: Just as school time. She tries to stand up for me. I appreciate it.
Tista: That's how she is after all.
Priya: Yeah and I'm thankful to have you people by my side.
Tista: We are glad too.
Priya: Oh by the way Sumin is at my place right now.
Tista: Why?
Priya: Because of tomorrow's meeting she said she has to attend it. It will be held in the afternoon I will be also there as the main star.
Tista: Is it the only reason why the next chairwoman-to-be is here? From the U.S.?
Priya: Well if I spotlight the highlights then she is here to have her rights to show she is the Boss, Sidd will also come. Both of the nominees for the next Chairman's seat will represent their opinions on the matter both will be judged by the board and Trustees. A solution will be there. To protect the image of the hospital and for so-called justice. They may honour me or may make me out of the hospital. The more pleasing opinion will be taken as orders.
Tista: Such a drama. Good luck. My boyfriend will help you he is also invited to the meetings as a journalist.
Priya: It's embarrassing why brother-in-law?
Tista: Don't worry it's all fine.
Priya thought "Tista is in a living relationship with her boyfriend they have completed 6 years together now. They have an age gap of 4 years they were neighbours Tista did a lot for her boyfriend to accept her. He called himself too old and Tista too young to be together but Tista never stopped pursuing him and after 2 years of chasing he finally said yes. I feel so nice when I see them happy together. Love is sure tough but if it's easy would it be still that much valuable?"
After receiving all the hate from haters and the all courage from friends the shift at the Hospital finally finished. Priya went home and went to sleep right after a quick dinner.
In the morning when she woke up, she asked Asha where was Sumin and Asha informed her that she had not come home. Priya checked her phone and saw her message she wouldn't come as she was too busy. Priya gets ready for the big day as the board meeting was today.
Priya went to the Hospital the vibe between staff was uncomfortable for Priya but she endured it.
In the afternoon the meeting was held in the lecture hall. All trustees, heads, seniors, and journalists are gathered.
Some people don't like Priya's family so they attacked Priya with their sharp tongue. Priya knew it.
The meeting started things proceeded appropriately. They asked Priya about how in reality she saved the patient and what were her steps taken. The other involved doctors were also there.
"Priya told me what happened and what you did?" the chief head of the Surgeon department asked she told everything in simple words but the Doctor "A" interrupted.
Doctor A: She did everything by herself it was all her deed she is to blame. Without proper experience, she was showing off and trying to act cool.
Priya: Well. I guess he was not able to put things properly in words let me elaborate. The doctors who got the patient into the elevator were so nervous that they mistook me for their Senior and asked me to help them and humans make mistakes Doctors are also humans after all. We didn't have enough time to discuss me being their junior. I checked the patient and did the right steps to save him. The oesophagus was blocked as it got a knot I cut it and joined the oxygen cylinder so he could breathe. And at least stay alive until help comes. And fortunately, we got immediate help and the patient is still alive. "A person's life is what all Matters in an emergency." I did what was right and I do not regret my actions I will accept whatever is the outcome of it.
The Chief head: You did right at that moment but I do not see how not being experienced is right for you. We got to know you performed surgery during the medical training. Tell us your part story.
Priya: Yes, Sir it's true. During my medical training in 2022, my batch was taken to a medical camp near a very small district area in a village. Well, you must be aware of my family background I come from a doctor's family which is great indeed. In a lockdown, my family members such as my father used to teach me how they perform surgery as he was a surgeon in past. We had some time together due to his weak health he could not work during the pandemic in the hospital. My Aunt used to teach me how to do cooking and in cooking she used to teach me how to separate flash from bones very neatly without extra cutting because of this my hands got a lot of training in surgery in some way. My mother and Sister both were working in a hospital during the pandemic. Back at the camp, my batch was allowed to see the village and when I saw the village on my tour some people dragged me to a person who was in urgent need of surgery his family was begging me to save him and to do something. They were in a vet clinic. I asked them to help me to take him to the medical camp but they were not taking him there and neither let me try to call for help. Fortunately, I had my all tools together as I was thinking of doing some normal check-ups, I asked for clean sheets and clean cotton, and I got medicine in the vet clinic not exactly what we use for surgery but which could be handy. I tried my best the patient was out of danger I got a bit of help from the vet's son who used to help his father in the clinic the Vet was in another city at that time. When the patient was out of control I told the villagers he still needed to be admitted to a hospital and convinced them. I won't lie I knew what I was doing was not the best choice but I didn't have any other options else than leaving that patient. I was in my last year of college so it makes sense that I could do a bit of surgery. That's all sir.
Sumin: What else to expect from a great doctor's family member?
Head Rakesh: But what about all the risks she took? At that time and now? Our Hospital image is at risk.
Sidd: When can a doctor operate without consent? Well...In a medical emergency, life-saving treatment can be given even in absence of consent. Refusing treatment in life-threatening situations due to non-availability of consent may hold the doctor guilty, unless there is a documented refusal to treatment by the patient.
Chief Head: Well... The lift got jammed it's the hospital's fault, not the doctor's. We already saw the CCTV clip of the elevator too.
Head Gaurav: We can't let her go just like this no one thinks it's fair.
Chief Head: Why so?
Head Gaurav: Well...
Head Mohan: Because of her background even tho we know she is not wrong but yet we can not let her go just like nothing.
Sidd: What is it that we can do without cancelling her certificate and suspending her? She is a good Doctor with a great image too. If we kick her out of the hospital it will not be justice.
Sumin: Let's make her take responsibility for the patient bill and make her work in the ER department for a while. We all know none of the doctors wish to work in the Emergency Department. That's all we can do, and it's right too. By the bill's decision the media will get silent as it's not even our doctor's fault and technical issues once in a decade are not a big shot and everyone is safe we will use our power to shut down media We need it.
Chief Head: Haha...*laughs True I as the beginner doctor used to hate to work in the ER. All my seniors and colleagues used to wish to not be assigned to it. But won't it be a punishment for her?
Priya: It's alright sir I'm ready for the hard work.
Chief Head: Good. Very good. And good saying Sumin. Also, it's good Sidd what you state.
Sidd: I'm still learning thank you.
Sumin: Thank you, Sir.
The meetings are finished after some paperwork and an interview. Priya gets free from the big shot.
Thank you for reading.
