Ridhu,” she screamed out in a loud tone as she entered the cabin.
Ridhima was seated at the chair closing her eyes tightly with her hands fisted. She opened her eyes as she saw Zoya.
She immediately rushed to her and hugged her tightly.
” What happened Ridhu,” asked Zoya with a worried tone.
” I was scared, that he would snatch my princess for me. I got nervous, fear, and mild pain in my chest,” said Ridhima burying her face at Zoya’s shoulder.
” I got scared now that I got my another attack,” she said in a vulnerable tone where tears rolled from her eyes.
” Ridhima, throw away the fear. Don’t get panicking for every second of the attacks. It had happened once, and it need not happen other as you are quite strong. Very strong compared to before, ”
” And coming to the princess talk, who would snatch your princess from you? Who the hell would when you are shielding your baby,”
” And baby also wouldn’t go to anyone that easily as she is mumma’s princess because she held your hand when everyone left you to die in the middle of the road. She didn’t have even 0.0001% of chance to survive due to your severe heart attack but she held your hand tightly not letting you go,”
” Then why are you worried now?” asked Zoya where Ridhima lifted her head and her eyes met Zoya.
” I met him and he demanded if it was his baby,” said Ridhima.
” He cannot do anything Ridhu, anything. He itself declared that you are not his wife and he and you don’t have any relation. He destroyed every evidence, now with what right he would come and claim your baby?” asked Zoya.
” You are right,” said Ridhima wiping her tears where she got her confidence back.
” How did you behave with them?” asked Zoya.
” They are just my patient nothing else. I also gave a recommendation for their psychiatrist evaluation to you,” said Ridhima.
” Good girl, be strong like this,” said Zoya patting her back.
Ridhima gave her a full-fledged smile.
The nurse came running inside with an injection in her hand.
” Zoya, injection,” said Nurse with a worried tone.
” Not needed, see ridhu is all fine, no need of any medicines,” said Zoya with a smile where Ridhima also nodded her head.
” I got scared when you asked for her medicines Zoya,” said Nurse.
” I got panicked, I am fine now sister,” said Ridhima with a smile where she went and hugged her.
” Fine, you have your scan today right, go and take scan first,” said Nurse.
” Yes, Ridhu, Today I would be with you when you take your scan,” said Zoya.
” You had appointments right?” asked Ridhima.
” All got over and Nurse make sure she gets no appointment after this, let her take rest,” said Zoya.
Nurse and Ridhima both nod their head.
Meanwhile, their trio’s stance was broken when Vansh came inside the room with worry. He was stunned when a doctor came rushing towards the nurse who was arguing with them and told that ridhu was unwell and she needs medications.
And he knew that it was his Ridhima who they were talking about where he saw the nurse leaving to fetch the medicines and doctor leaving inside to the room. And after a few minutes, he saw the nurse going inside in haste where he patiently waited for the doctor to come out. He thought he could get to know about her from the doctor, but then since it was getting more time he grew very restless.
And dadi also insisted on him and so he marched towards inside worriedly along with dadi. But then his thoughts were broken as he saw Ridhima and Nurse nodding their head obediently.
She is all right, thank god!! he thought in his mind. Then what was the commotion that happened a few minutes ago? Did she fake it to gain his attention?? he thought where he fisted his hand with the mere thought with anger bubbling inside him
Yes she would have done that only. Behaving as if she doesn’t know him and then making him go worried for her. She is a great actress!!! He thought in his mind
” Yes Mr?” said Ridhima with a sudden stiffness in her tone. She was feeling carefree with her friends Zoya and the nurse but then sudden interruption of Vansh made her go rigid.
” You did a drama that you are unwell to gain my attention right ?” asked Vansh in a furious tone.
” Oh god, What the hell,” she muttered with a disgusted tone.
Seriously this man was blinded by his ego very well and nothing was visible. No right, no wrong. And now he is blaming her for faking her health to gain his attention. Bull shit!!
” Don’t act, I knew well about you,” said Vansh in a spitting tone. Dadi was a silent spectator among their heated conversation.
” God, this man is just getting into my nerves,” she said rubbing her forehead.
“Nurse, I asked you to take them to Zoya right? Oh, Zoya herself is here, ”
” Zoya, they are my patients and very close to me due to their beautiful words. Could you please evaluate them? And please don’t charge fees as they are my special patient,” she said looking at Zoya.
” Sure, Mr, please wait in my cabin, I would be back after 15 minutes,” said Zoya with a smirking attitude.
” I am not mad such that I need psychiatric assistance, Ridhima stop fooling all of us around, tell me why did you fake?” asked Vansh.
” Zoya, why would I fake my health for this so-called unknown person. I don’t even know him,” she said looking at Zoya where she pointed at Vansh.
” You are my wife,” he said gritting her teeth.
” And the baby which is growing inside you is Vansh’s,” said Dadi.
” Do you have proof? That I am his wife, the child which is growing inside me is his?” she asked looking them with her furious look where she rubbed her temples in anger.
” Yes,” he said looking at her eyes.
” Then show me,” she said lifting her eyebrows.
” I have our marriage pic, wait let me show it,” he said taking his phone. He started surfing his phone but didn’t even get even a single pic of her. He had secretly kept her photos in a folder and now it was also not there.
Who the hell would have deleted the photos? he thought in his mind where he got the answer in his mind.
” Damn you, Ahanna,” he cursed in his mind.
” Got it?” she asked folding her hand.
” Nothing could stop the fact that you are my wife, and the baby residing inside you is mine which I clearly understand with your expression,” said Vansh with a loud tone.
Ridhima looked at him blankly. The nerve of this man is too high. After betraying and throwing her in the middle of the road, he still has the audacity to come and claim that she was his wife and the baby was his!!
And what expression she is showing such that they could decipher that the baby is Vansh’s. They didn’t decipher her true self when they had to actually and now when everything is broken, what is the use of deciphering if the baby is his or not?
” Give me the proof and I would believe your saying. Anyway I knew that you won’t get any proof because I am not your wife ” said Ridhima with a huffed tone taking a huge breath.
” I would come with proof then,” said Vansh.
” Fine, if not you get any proof, get yourself treated for your mental illness as I think you have really gone mad,” said Ridhima with a challenging tone where she exited her room.
As she exited the room she saw Adithya coming over the floor with a worried expression.
” Riddhu,” he said cupping her face worriedly after spotting her outside the cabin.
” Adi,” said Ridhima looking at him where she hugged him.
” You scared me, Are you fine?” asked Adithya.
” I am, I got scared, but Zoya helped me,” said Ridhima where he kissed her hair lovingly.
” Thank god!!” he muttered in a relieved tone.
Whereas at the same time, Vansh, Dadi, Zoya, and the nurse came out. Vansh burned with jealousy seeing Ridhima in Adithya’s arms.
Ridhima leaned on to his shoulders closing her eyes to relax her nerves which was bursting before. She got a little calmed seeing Adi and now when she is in his embrace, his shoulder, all her worry flew away.
” Mr… the reason for Ridhima denying your talks is because she is already married. She is Mrs. Ridhima Adithya Raichand and the one who is standing there is Mr. Adithya Raichand, famous cardiologist in this hospital,” said Zoya looking towards Vansh where Vansh faces lost its color completely.
” What?” asked Dadi with a shocked expression whereas Vansh was numbed. He wasn’t able to voice out.
” Now don’t ask for evidence and all as it is unnecessary for her to prove that she is his wife to someone unknown like you. And secondly, can’t you see both of their eyes, how they hold love for each other,” said Zoya pointing out them where Vansh just nodded his head as no.
It was as if history was repeating. No this is all just a facade. Ridhima is not married and all he said to himself in his mind.
” So I hope you don’t disturb her again and don’t make her tensed. This is my warning as her doctor,” said Zoya giving them a tight smile and going towards Adithya and Ridhima.
” Shall we go for scan?” asked Zoya.
Adithya and Ridhima nods their head where Adithya holds her hands firmly and took her to the scan room leaving a shocked Dadi and Vansh behind..
Ridhima laid on the bed being nervous where she closed her eyes. Adithya and Zoya where near her where they held both of her hand in each direction tightly.
” Excited Ridhu?” asked the doctor with a smile.
” Yes of course,” said Ridhima.
” Today we are going to monitor baby’s heart beat and also sonography, okay?” asked the doctor.
Ridhima nods her head where the doctor applied some gel in her abdomen and kept the instrument. Once the instrument touched her abdomen, they could hear the heart beat of the baby.
Tik Tik
Tik Tik
Tik Tik
Ridhima got tears in her eyes hearing the sound.
” See the baby in the monitor,” said the doctor applying the instrument in her abdomen.
As soon as her sight landed upon the monitor, her face twitched towards a broad smile. Her baby was visible to her very well in the monitor. She was so small, with head, nose, ears, hands, and legs visible clearly on the monitor.
She held Adithya’s and Zoya’s hands more firmly when she saw her baby moving inside her abdomen which she felt inside and also in the monitor.
What more could she ask much than this?
” How are you feeling Ridhima,” asked Doctor with a smile.
” Words aren’t enough,” said Ridhima staring at the monitor.
” Growth of the baby is very good. Maintain the same routine of what you are following,” said the doctor.
” Sure, I would take care of that,” said Adithya.
” Okay then,” said the doctor removing the instrument and helped Ridhima to sit on the bed. Ridhima just smiled wholeheartedly.
” Feeling good?” asked Adithya hugging her.
“Very much,” said Ridhima.
” Go refresh and come, we need to go for lunch,” said Adithya.
Ridhima nods her head and leaves to the restroom.
” She met Vansh, her husband today,” said Zoya looking at Adithya.
“That is why she got an attack?” asked Adithya in a furious tone where he fisted his hands.
” She didn’t get an attack, just some fears were the reason for her anxiety,” said Zoya.
” Whatever he is the reason, and I won’t let that man,” said Adithya in an angry tone.
” Relax, our priority is safe guarding Ridhima from everything. She is strong but isn’t that strong enough to withhold. She is emotional and that is why it lead to heart attack at the first place that too a massive attack,” said Zoya.
” So we need to give her more sessions? What if we leave this place and shift somewhere else?” asked Ridhima.
” She needs love and care Adi, see she got many people who loves her to the core. Her heart is healing slowly. Her wounds are so deep, and she would recover slowly with the love she is receiving,”
” Just let us make her more strong and yeah meditation sessions she should attend more,” said Zoya.
“Okay, done. Echo scan was done just 15 days ago, let us make sure we do ECHO after exactly 5 days. Let it be at a frequency of 20 days since I am not ready to take a risk regarding her,” said Adithya.
Zoya nods her head..
Vansh and Dadi both reached the mansion where both were lost in their respective thoughts.
Vansh was broken with the information that Ridhima was married and he was now confused if it was his baby actually.
Dadi was feeling sad with the behavior of ridhima of moving on with other men.
How could she do that when her grandson was still struck in between the past. And now what about the baby?
Was it Vansh or other’s? She wasn’t able to decipher.
Both of them on the whole were thinking the same thing in different perspectives.
As they both reached the gate, they did find Ishani, Chanchal, Angre, Aryan, Rudra standing outside with tears rolling from their eyes.
Siya was made seated on a wheel chair where she had her eyes closed since she was in coma
Vansh got panicked seeing them outside where he rushed towards them with worry clearly written in his eyes. Dadi also came towards them
” What happened? Why are you all standing outside? And why are you crying,” asked Vansh with a worried tone.
” And why is Siya being here. She needs to be in a comfortable environment,” said Vansh.
“Bhai first listen, ” said Ishani with a teary tone.
” Kabir and Ahana cheated us Vansh Bhai. They got the whole property and pushed us outside,” said Aryan with a devasted tone, leaving a totally numbed Vansh and Dadi……..
