Fan Fiction

a twist in the tale; swabhiman (chapter 19)

when karan dropped his phone, the whole family realised that something must have happened. they all rushed to him and asked him to tell them but karan, he didn’t know what to say.

meghna: karan, please say something.

karan: naina, naina got into an accident.

meghna: what?

karan: she’s in the hospital. rohit just called. i have to go, i have to leave.

nirmala: we’ll all come with you.

kunal: yes, come on. i’ll drive so we can reach faster.

at the hospital, rohit and vinod were sitting, waiting for the doctors to tell them something. karan ran in the hospital and saw them sitting.

karan: where’s naina? how is she? rohit, say something.

meghna: roh, what happened?

rohit: we found out from the car camera that she’d been in an accident. she was driving and she hit a tree. we managed to call the ambulance and then we came here. i spoke to the doctor, they’re doing an operation on her but they’re saying that she might not make it. it’s not looking good.

karan: it’s my fault. it’s all my fault.

karan went to the mandir in the hospital and prayed, then he put his hand on the fire.

karan: naina can’t leave me like this. you can’t take her away from me! i need her, i can’t live without her. i’m not taking my hand out of this fire until you make her okay. if she dies, i die and that’s a promise.

nirmala saw karan at the mandir and rushed to him.

nirmala: karan, what are you doing? you’ll hurt yourself.

karan: naina got hurt because of me, ma. i won’t move till she wakes up.

meghna: karan, she’s already hurt but, why are you hurting yourself?

karan: bhabhi, this is between me and him.

karan refused to move from there. however, they quickly got good news.

doctor: naina survived but, it was a miracle. you can take her home tomorrow, just make sure she rests a lot because there’s a lot of internal bleeding and other injuries. basically, don’t let her do a lot of walking and make sure she doesn’t get any stress because she got hit in the head and it can effect her badly.

karan: can i go in?

doctor: yes but, she’s still unconscious.

karan went in the room and broke down seeing naina like that. he sat next to her holding her hand.

karan: naina, please wake up. i’m sorry. god, i’m so sorry for telling you to leave. i know you’re in this condition because of me and i don’t know what to say except that i’m an idiot for letting you leave. naina, you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. i know you came into my life all of a sudden but, i think that’s the best thing dad did for me. i don’t know what i’d do without you, naina. i can’t live without you. (sigh) i don’t know if you’ll ever forgive me for this but i love you, naina. i love you so much. please wake up. you can shout and yell at me, hit me, but please, don’t stay quiet like this, naina, please wake up.

all of a sudden, naina’s hand moved. karan felt it and called everyone in. karan felt life coming back to him. he was relieved and most importantly, he was happy because naina was awake and soon, she was going to be fine. at that moment, karan promised himself that he’ll bring naina as much happiness as she gave him because, she deserves that and so much more.

thank you for reading! i wasn’t sure if i should continue uploading after the last chapter because i didn’t get much feedback but then eventually, a few of you commented asking when i was going to upload so, sorry for the delay. i know this chapter was a little short but it was a filler chapter. after this is where all the fun begins so hang tight and i’ll try and get it up by tonight.
