Constant
tries to open his eyes could just make him see the flashes going by draped in
Green gowns. All he could felt is nothing. One harder attempt is what is thought,
and succeeded. Beeps of fluctuating ECG machine is much clear now. He still
feels numb after a constant stare at the surroundings. Hours pass by and the
craving to speak increased with every drop of saline running into his nerves.
The
tick tock sound of the hanging clock irked him. He waited. Next day arrived
with Priya. Priya, yes he remembers. Sunshine of his life. Closer
she came, more he thanks god to see her. The kohl line in her eyes- how he
wanted to live longer just to see her eyes.
Numerous feelings were brimming inside when he could not welcome her
with a usual tight hug. Tried smiling, efforts fooled him.
He tried-it pained-tried harder-pained more-gave up…
The
reality falls down on him with an acute pain originating down his backbone and
he could not bear it. Eyes get shut and saliva dribbles down his blue lips.
Priya called out for doctor with an anxious cry and he was pulled back by his
fresh bruises.
Countless hours of sleep was gifted to him again…..
But
he wished for an undisturbed sleep, devoid of the haunting memories. Noise of cars coupled with encouraging hoots
of his buddies. Notorious screams urging him to press the accelerator harder.
Blurred images of the events conquered his surviving sub-conscious.
His
engagement with Priya, what else could he ask his life for. His angel stood by
his side, hand in hand posing for the cameras. Her tinkling laughter still
echoes cutting down the beeps of machines. That day while dining he suddenly
went blank for a minute. What is this happening to me; he thought and again got
lost with the teasing and laughter. The same thing happened again in day or two
when he sat giving his undivided attention to his CEO. He kept wondering and
decided to speak to Priya about it. Priya listened and advised him to visit a
doctor. He excused claiming “Its all because of you. You stay on my mind
and nothing else I could accommodate” and she teased him again with her
usual gesture…
“NAHARGARH”
his buddies announced for the party destination and there was no question of
denying. After all he will be married in few months and then he will have to
adjust for family dining. He took charge of his “Chevrolet Beat” while the other
four stufffed it with alcohol.
They
proceeded on the craggy single road of the old fort for an overnight party.
High on spirits Rajan opened a beer tin but he asked him to wait for the
destination. “Yo Yo Honey Singh” filled the space and the car soon turned into
a mini Disc. The narrow road was overburdened and cars fled past like a flash.
He was an expert and knew the rules to drive safe and said a firm NO to the
demands of accelerate.He obeyed evry warning sign planted on the road.
He was driving carefully checking the speeding vehicles coming from the
opposite direction simultaneously enjoying the dirty jokes.
Light
peeped out of a coming jeep and struck his eyes. He went BLANK. It happened
again and this time risking his life along with the people he loved and cared
about.
He
doesn’t remember anything thereafter. Back to the hospital bed, he saw his
doctor coming for the checkup. “Doctor what happens with me every other day ?”
he weakly asked. Tumour, Brain Tumour. Has he heard it right. YES, surgery is
planned once you get rid of your present injuries- doctor informed.
He
again bounced to numb. Body warned earlier and avoiding is not a bliss.
Moral
: Any abnormal or unusual sign should be taken care, not by worrying over it
but by an expert.
