She wore the same churidar in the morning. We skipped breakfast and went to hospital directly. On the way she said she don't want Karthik to know that we stayed in the same room. I understood it immediately. No husband could bear it.

"Yeah. I understand."

I said.

"And if possible, can you stay away in the morning?"

I looked at her confusingly.

"Actually... Karthik is...he gets doubtful too easily. If we show up together, he'd make out things no matter what we tell him..."

"Oh. That's not really a good thing about a husband."

I said.
She just kept her eyes on the road.

We reached the hospital by seven thirty. I left her alone and stayed outside. I didn't have anything to do. So I decided to see Alka. She was awake and very happy to see me again. Her husband invited me to their house and I said I'll consider it on my next visit.
After that I went to have breakfast. It was really boring. My heart tempted me to go to Deepika but my brain stopping me. But eventually I decided to go.
I went to the place and luckily the nurse allowed me to go in. She had believed me to be someone very closer to Karthik. I wondered if she had thought of me as her husband and Karthik's brother. I really liked that thought.

Inside the observation section I saw Deepika sitting next to his bed. That's the first time I saw Karthik. It was such a shame. A let down. He looked ugly. I felt he must be an angel inside to make up for his looks, otherwise he wouldn't deserve a wife like Deepika. I suddenly remembered about the previous day; when I saw Deepika crying for him. And without even speaking a word I was convinced that this man earned those tears and her love only because of his good nature and love for her. I respected him. I envied him. I smiled at him with all my heart.

"How are you feeling now, Karthik?"

He didn't smile back.

"I'm okay."

He said very seriously. Deepika turned to me but she also didn't smile. I could see she was upset.
