Street Cafe Treat

October 2017

 "Okay, Mr Kyle. Then it is decided, we will start this project from next month only."

Looking up from the file, said a 28 years old beautiful woman wearing formal knee-length black dress.

Robert Kyle nod his head in positive.

"Natalia please prepare the rest of the documents before the next week, so we could start arranging the materials soon." The lady added with firm voice looking towards her PA, who replied with nod.

Standing up from her seat, she put her hand out for a formal handshake as she said firmly "It's a nice meeting with you, Mr Kyle. Hope you don't mind I have some other meeting to attend, see you later then."

Shaking hands with her, Robert replied with smile "Yeah, sure. We will meet again. Good day young lady."

Giving a curt nod, she left the cafe as she started feeling unknown restlessness. To relax her mind she decide to go on a peaceful drive so ask her driver to take the long route but her restlessness grew more.

'Its 1:50 pm. Ahh! i still have one hour to waste.' She thought irritatedly looking at her watch.

With a sigh she ask her driver to take the left turn but saw a huge crowd on the road. Scrolling her window down she ask one passerby "What's the matter?"

He said "Accident, mam. We are afraid ambulance might not be able to reach in time."

'Such a worst day.' She thought while her driver got out of the car to see condition of the victim.

"Mam, seeing the condition of the victim I am sure he wouldn't make it alive. And we have to wait half hour for ambulance then only this crowd will scatter." Said Jack, the driver as he came back and sit inside the car.

"What!? You are saying the condition of victim is worse and everyone is waiting for ambulance. Why did not anyone take him to the hospital in their car?" She yelled in shock.

"Mam, no one wants to get involve in any kind of police case as well as who wants to mess their own car with blood and dirt for a strang..." Jack replied but got interrupted in mid.

"Jack! I don't care about anything. Just bring that man inside the car. He will die out there. Go! Hurry up!" She shouted angrily before coming out of the car to held the door open while hearing her shout, Jack hurriedly ran out pushing others and with the help of other men, he brought the body of unconscious man whose face is unrecognisable due to wounds and blood.

Hastely, making the man lie on back seat Jack ran towards the front seat and start driving fast as the crowd scattered away to gave him the path. Where as the lady also sat with unconscious man to attend his wounds somehow. She pull out her scarf and press it tightly on his head injury as blood was gushing out of it uncontrollably.

Soon they reached hospital and took him to the Operation theatre as the lady showed them her card and shout to attend him fast. As they were taking him inside the OT, nurse started to wipe his face which bring out the fair skin of the man with moustache.

The lady looked at his face at the same time, breathe got stuck in her throat as the ground beneath her feet slip away and she collapse on the floor while Doctors took him inside the OT.

Jack bend to help her sit on the chair but she wasn't in her sense as tears flow out of her wide eyes which were fixed at the door of the OT with shocked imprint all over her face.

A nurse came near her to fill the form of the patient and asked "What is the name of the patient?"

She mumbled almost inaudible "Sameer!"

"Okay. And you?" The nurse asked the lady again. This time Jack replied "Ms. Aisha Kapoor."

AR Mansion

2:10 p.m.

"Ugh! My head." Arjun yelled holding his aching head as he woke up.

"Riyuuu!?" He said loudly still with closed eyes but instantly open his eyes on feeling a soft hand on his forehead before sighing in relief.

Riya smiled as she start massaging his head and said "Relax. I am here only. Look Aru and Sneha is also here with your medicines."

Arjun closed his eyes feeling heavenly as he felt slight tug on his shirt knowing it's his little princess while his champ is pressing Arjun's shoulders softly to release the stiffness. He opened his eyes again on feeling Sneha's lip on his cheek as she kissed him soundly.

He sit up on the bed and pull both of his lovely kids in his arms before pecking their whole face and smiled smugly at Riya. She widened her eyes with slight blush on her cheeks before glaring Arjun.

They had their lunch with Sneha on Arjun's lap and Aryan sitting beside him. Whereas Riya was having her lunch quitely with worry lines on her forehead. Arjun asked her the reason which she replied "Nothing." But he knew something is there which had her worried all the time as she continuously look at her cellphone before trying to call someone with deep frown after every few minutes.

Now its almost 3 pm as they all sat on the couch with kids to watch their favourite show. Arjun was changing the channels while playing with Riya's hairs when suddenly Aryan shout "Chachu!"

Arjun and Riya looked towards Aryan, who seeing their eyes on him replied pointing at TV "Look! Chachu is on TV."

Riya immediately turn her eyes towards the same on hearing it while Arjun increased the volume on seeing Sameer's photo.

*Breaking news.

You all will be shocked to know that the Sameer D Rathod, the ex manager and current CEO of RMF i.e Ramirez Management Firm has met with a deadly accident this afternoon around 2 pm. It is believed that he was on his bike when a car hit him. This accident took place near Street cafe. He was admitted by the kind young lady and our...*

Riya gasped as she and Arjun stood up from their place in shock. They came out of their trance on hearing Aryan's cry. "Chachu! Mumma!? What happened to chachu!?"

Riya started sobbing with her kid while Arjun composed himself and wipe the tears of Aryan as he said "Champ. Bachha don't cry. Chachu Ko bas halki si kharoch aayi hai. Now be the strong son of chachu and take care of princess. Ok!? Till then me and mumma will go and see how is chachu? And ask doctor uncle to allow you to meet chachu. So that you will scold him that he made our champ worried. Okay Aryan!?"

On seeing Aryan nod, Arjun send both the kids inside the room with the maid and turn towards Riya before hugging her tightly as he whispered "Riyuu. Sam ko kuch nahi hoga. Believe me. He is more stronger than any such accident."

"Main kab se Sam Bhaiya Ko call karne ki koshish kar rahi thi but it was switched off. Nothing will happen to him na? Bolo Arjun unhe kuch nahi hoga na?" Riya cried on Arjun's chest.

"He will be fine. Come let's go." Whispering so Arjun dragged her towards the car as they drove away.

Soon they reached the hospital and saw a huge crowd at the front gate. Arjun covered Riya with his body, protecting her from any photographer as well as from getting hurt, made his way inside the hospital pushing the crowd away.

Asking the receptionist, they arrived outside the OT where Sameer's operation was going on from more than half hour.

After making Riya sit on the seat, Arjun with sweaty palms out of fear and concern-filled eyes paced here and there waiting impatiently to know about Sam. That's when Riya's eyes caught the sight of another vulnerable figure sitting beside her. Her face was familiar to Riya whereas her devastated state also told something.

Putting her hand on the shoulder of the vulnerable lady, Riya asked softly "Did you brought Sameer bhai here?" 

And Riya got her answer as the lady cried in choked voice saying "Sameer!!" Before fainting in the arms of Riya.

Her driver called worriedly "Aisha mam!" Arjun turn towards them and hurriedly called the doctor to check her up.

After checking her nerves Doctor said "Its nervous breakdown. I think, very recently she underwent a huge shock and trauma which leads to her nervous system collapse. Please admit her fast, if she wasn't treated right now then maybe her condition will be worsen." Saying so doctor move ahead and ask nurse to prepare nearby room for the patient.

On Riya's gesture, Arjun brought Aisha inside the room allotted by the doctor and lay her on the hospital bed. Nurse gave her anesthesia to relief the patient from stress and sleep with relax mind. Dr Chris Brown, the physician came and started checking the patient.

While Arjun and Riya came out of the room and sat on bench from where the doors of both OT and Aisha's room can be seen. Riya put her head on his shoulder with a defeated sigh while tears flew out of her eyes. Arjun hugged her by side and asked "Riyuu, who is she? Do you know her?"

"Arjun, ye Aisha hai. Mai kabhi Mili tou nahi lekin ap..." Riya stopped her in mid.

"Mai!? Mai kya Riya!?" Arjun asked more confused. 'You knew, who she is? You only told me about Sam bhai's more-than-friend girl.' Riya thought sadly but came out of her thoughts as Arjun added "Did I met her!?"

"Uh! No Arjun you didn't met her but I thought you must knew about her as I once saw her photo in Sam bhai's office stuff, and Sam bhai was your best friend then he might have told you." Riya replied meekly.

On hearing such, Arjun exhale a painful sigh as he whispered "I wish I could be able to remember every moment of my life. Riyu I don't even knew what did I do in last five to six years. Nothing. Not even about my personal life, forget about my friend's life. And upon that those nightmares!"

Riya hugged him tightly and thought 'Don't worry love, from now on nothing as such will ever happen again. It is the promise of your love. I will again end these nightmares soon.'

...

After half an hour of surgery the bulb of the OT goes off which indicates operation is over, Arjun and Riya stood up impatiently as well as worriedly. Near about the same time, the door of the other room opened and out came a vulnerable Aisha who rush towards Arjun Riya on seeing Sameer's doctor approach them. Aisha asked the doctor without any delay "Doctor!? How is he!? How is Sameer!? Tell me? He is fine na!? Nothing to be worry about, right? Speak up!"

Doctor replied in calm yet compose voice "Relax Ms Kapoor, look the accident was very deadly as hit of the car threw him far, causing a dangerous wound in his head but still he is alive that was miracle. Though we saved him from death but still his condition is totally different as he is not responding to the medicines, looks like he was already very depressed that he is not willing to live more. And his unresponsiveness towards treatment is pushing him to coma, he has 12 hours if within this hours he gain his consciousness that means he responded to the medicines then he will be out of danger. But if he didn't wake up in these hours, I am sorry to say but he might slip into coma. So pray to God and don't give any stress."

Her hold on Sameer's hand didn't slacked, not even for a second and this was notice by Sameer, which made him feel more guilty and angst. Soon composing himself, Sameer came back to his resolution and said something which tear open the heart of the people present there.

"Aisha I am fine now. So just relax and yeah don't worry for me anymore I-I have my friends and family to take care of me. You don't have to waste your time here. And stay here for sometime as it's too late to leave." He inhaled a deep breath before adding in low voice "By the way, thanks for saving me, a stranger."
