Shocked.."
"Now you're okay?"
"Yeah!"
By evening, the lady I had brought was able to wake up. I got contact numbers from her and contacted her family. They reached the hospital within an hour. Soon there was a crowd. Her husband, two sons and a daughter, her father and so on.
All of them thanked me. Her name was Alka, and she worked in an advertising agency.
Naina was watching as the people were hugging me and shaking my hands.
"You're really a good person. You got blessings from eleven people."
"Twelve." I looked at her and corrected her.
"Yes. Twelve. No. Twelve and a half."
She smiled, gesturing to Vinnee.
Again hers was a beautiful smile on the beautiful face of a beautiful woman.
Once Alka's family was there, I was free to go. But as I had promised to Naina, I stayed.
The doctor came again to Karthik. He checked the scanning result and was disappointed.
And he said Karthik needs to be admitted. For a few days.
He was awake by then. I went out and bought some food for him. Naina fed him as I stood outside holding Vinnee.
As soon as the sedation ended, Karthik was in pain. He was given pain killers as well as sleeping pills.
