Hi guys. Sorry for the late post, I had exams and studying to do. Hope you enjoy this chapter ?
Krishna: Good morning (Krishna says as she sits down on the table)
Dadi: Everyone start eating
Suhani: Krishna, where’s Saiyyam?
Krishna: Umm…(Krishna trailed off not sure whether to tell Suhani about last night) Aunty, he’s not hungry.
Suhani: Why not? Is he okay?
Krishna: Yeah, yeah Aunty, he’s fine.
Suhani: Ok (Suhani says but remains uncertain)
Time Skip-
Saiyyam was sitting on his bed rubbing his temples.
Saiyyam: (How could this happen? My life had finally got some happiness. And now. And now my past has come back.) Saiyyam thought.
Saiyyam was distracted by his thoughts by a knock on the door. He turned around and saw Suhani standing in the doorway, with a tray of food in her hand.
Saiyyam: Maa. What are you doing here?
Suhani: Well, you didn’t come for breakfast, so I brought food for you.
Saiyyam: It’s ok, I’m not hungry.
Suhani: Sit down. You are going to eat and you have no choice. (Suhani says sitting down next to Saiyyam.)
Saiyyam: You didn’t have to take the trouble.
Suhani: What do you mean Saiyyam? You are my son. There’s no trouble at all. (Suhani smiled)
Saiyyam: Ok. You can leave the food on the side, I’ll eat it in a bit.
Suhani: Oh no, I don’t think so. I came here because today, I’m going to feed you with my own hands.
Saiyyam: What? (Saiyyam asked, shocked)
Suhani: Saiyyam. Why are you so shocked? I’m your mother.
Saiyyam: Sorry. This is all just very new to me. I’ve never had someone who loved me so much.
When Suhani heard this she felt her eyes becoming watery. Her son didn’t even know the meaning of a mothers love. Or love at all.
Suhani: Well, now I’m here. Your mothers here. (Suhani said before feeding Saiyyam)
Saiyyam’s p.o.v
A strange feeling grew inside of me. A feeling of being loved. I just wanted to stay in this moment forever. For once, I forgot about all my problems, all my fears, and just enjoyed this moment.
But our moment was ruined by a knock on the door. We turned around and I saw ‘Him’ standing at the door.
Suhani: Manoj je. What are you doing here?
No. No. No. He can’t be here. He can’t. My hands started shaking, my legs were loosing control. I felt like the air had been sucked out of me. My breathing started to slow down. Beads of sweat began to form on my for head.
Suhani: Saiyyam! Are you ok? (Suhani asked worriedly)
I could feel my vision getting blurry, my head becoming heavy.
Suhani: Somone call the doctor! (Suhani shouts as Saiyyam collapsed in her arms)
Time Skip-
Saiyyam was lying down on his bed, asleep. The rest of the family surrounding him.
Suhani: Doctor. What happened? Why did he suddenly become unconscious?
Doctor: Well from what you have told me, it seems as though Saiyyam had a panic attack.
Yuvraaj: What? Why did Saiyyam have a panic attack?
Suhani: I don’t know.
Doctor: Have you noticed any changes in him? Has he behaved unusually recently?
When the doctor said this everyone shook their heads and said no. Except from Krishna.
Krishna: Yes doctor.
Suhani: Krishna. (Suhani said in shock)
Krishna: I’m sorry aunt, I didn’t tell you before. Actually doctor, last night Saiyyam had a little panic attack. He kept saying things like ‘He’s back’ ‘He’s going to hurt me’ and all that. But I managed to calm him down.
Suhani: Krishna. How could you not tell me?
Krishna: I’m sorry aunty.
Suhani: It’s ok
Yuvraaj: But doctor. What does this mean?
Doctor: It seems as though Saiyyam has faced some kind of trauma. Did anything happen to him when he was a child.
Suhani: I don’t know doctor. I just met my son a few months ago. He lived in an orphanage all his life. (Suhani said tears flowing down her cheeks)
Doctor: Well. I think you must go and ask the orphanage if anything happened. Because then we will find out what the problem is.
Yuvraaj: Ok doctor (yuvraaj says as the doctor stands up)
Suhani: Thnak you doctor, for coming.
Doctor: No problem. And also, I advise you find out soon. Because if he has another panic attack, it could be fatal.
Suhani: What? (Suhani asked in shock)
Doctor: Yes. I’ll take your leave. (The doctor says as he walks out of the room)
Suhani: Yuvraaj, what’s happened to my son? ( Suhani cried into Yuvraaj’s shoulder)
Yuvraaj: Don’t worry Suhani. We’ll find out about Saiyyam’s past. And then we will help him together. Together.
Pre-cap: Suhani: Saiyyam. Please tell me what happened.
Saiyyam: I can’t. I can’t tell you. Just leave me alone. Please!
