Shreya POV-

We all went to freshen up and got ready. I was about to leave home for office but had a call from Vaibhav sir.

" I think Anika is in labour." He announced.

" Don't panic. Take her to the hospital. I'll be reaching there in half an hour." I said.

" WELL! LET'S GO AND WELCOME MY NEW NEPHEW OR NIECE."

" Mom, Anika is in labor. I'm leaving for the hospital." I told mom.

" Bye beta. Take care." Mom said.

" Kabir, will you drop me to City Hospital?" I asked him.

" Why are you asking? Come, let's go." He said. I nodded.

We reached the hospital.

" Shreya, if there is an emergency, call me okay?" He said.

" Don't worry Kabir. I will." I said.

I then kissed him on his cheek and ran out of the car.

" Bye Mrs Rathore." He said.

" Bye Kabir." I said and he drove off.

I went inside.

" Where is Anika?" I asked the receptionist.

" Mam, may I please know the full name?" She asked me.

" Anika Singhal." I said.

" Mam, are you related to the patient?"  She asked me.

"I am her best friend." I said.

" Sorry mam, I cannot let you in. Only family is allowed in the maternity ward.

" What the...." I started but had to control.

" Listen, I need to go in. My friend is in labor and she needs me." I shouted.

" Sorry mam, I cannot help it." She said.

" God Dammit." I shouted.

I called Vaibhav but he was not taking the call.

I was hell frustrated. 

" I want to talk to the manager." I told the receptionist.

" Mam, you need appointment for doing so." She said.

That's it! I'm calling Kabir.

" Missing me already Mrs Rathore?" Kabir asked.

" Shut up and come here." I yelled.

" Calm down your horses wifey, What happened?" He asked.

" They are not allowing me to go in." I whined.

" You are lucky. I'm in this area for a meeting. I'll be there in 10." He said.

I hung up.

I saw a manager looking like person walking towards the reception area.

" Are you the manager?" I asked approaching him.

" Yes." He announced.

" Look, my friend is in labor and she needs me. I need to meet her." I told him.

" But mam, only family is allowed in the maternity ward." He repeated the receptionist's words.

" Listen Mr whoever you are. Let me in." I said.

" Sorry mam, I will not let that happen." He said sternly.

" And who will stop her Mr Tyagi?" A voice said.
