" For God sake let me in, I am a doctor " Shehnaaz spoke angrily to the hospital chairman Sidharth was currently in

" Dr. We understand that but rules won't allow family to treat the patient " He spoke calmly, looking at Shehnaaz he was sure they were just recently married owning to bangles, the mangalsutra, the heavy suit and of course the Sindoor yet her eyes we're dark, bloodshot red if that is even a term, swollen and her kajal was smudged
Sidharth was a well known name in this profession, he headed a Surgery unit and had two researches under his name at the age of 37 and it was an achievement in itself.

" Please try to understand I need to be there beside him, I promise I won't touch him, I won't even interfere with what all you are doing to him to treat him, just once please " She cried

" Mam please understand " He spoke helpless.

" Shehnaaz " Abhi gasped seeing her condition, he saw that all over the local news and he couldn't stop himself from running here, he knew she would be broken but this was unexpected.

" Shehnaaz " He spoke engulfing her in his arms and the chairmam was relieved that atleast she had someone

" Abhi.... Sidharth " She cried and he held her strong
" He will be okay, He will be okay " He whispered he didn't knew what he had to do other than that

" They aren't letting me in " She spoke, like a child from whom her favorite toy has been snatched over
" I want to just see how is his condition" She added

" Shehnaaz you can't do this, Families aren't treated for a reason by ourselves remember " He spoke

" Lekin.... " She spoke
" I will look into it, you promise me you will not cry, keep faith Shehnaaz, we don't even know what happened, how bad is it, you can't loose your calm now " He spoke and she sniffled

" Myself Captain Dr. Abhishek, Trauma surgeon, I am not related to him and being a doctor I guess I can go inside " Abhi spoke

" Sure " He spoke leading the way

" Oh my Goodness " Abhishek gasped

It was bad, there were a large cut right in his abdomen which was being sutured right now, his head was shaved and there was a fracture of his left tibia and left arm, with few scratches here and there and he sighed

" Captain Abhishek " One of the fellow intern spoke and he nodded at him, came out to go back in after scrubbing properly

" Was there any abdominal bleeding " He asked wearing the gloves
" The windshield glass struck right through his abdomen, we are lucky it didn't penetrated the peritoneum Or it had been a mess " The doctor spoke

" Let me. " Abhi spoke and the doctor nodded handling him the suture.

" It's silk " He spoke
" He is allergic to it " He spoke noticing that there was already the reaction to the thread that started

" Get me prolene " He spoke urgently cutting up all the sutures he had been given till now on his abdomen and took the prolene in his hand

" He is bleeding " He spoke gasping, keeping the thread aside he dug in deep in his abdomen to locate the site of bleeding, it was near his left lobe of liver, it was a minor arterial bleed but it was there

" How can you all be this careless " He spoke, this wasn't his OT, nor was this his hospital, nor were they his juniors but the person lying open on the table in a very bad condition was his own
Someone his best friend loved like her depended on him as her oxygen, cringe to hear but it was the truth
