Yet Again (under Editing)

Part 49

A nurse walked in, while Rajiv was busy laughing at my face.
"Sir... aap bahar jaiye inko rest.. krne dijiye.." she instructed Rajiv after giving me a injection and some medicines.
"yeah sure..." He nodded before standing up to leave.
I looked at his retreating figure.... before my eyelids felt heavy..
I could see his blur image opening the door.
"Papa..." a faint voice reached my ears and I saw a blur image of a small kid running into Rajiv.
Then.... everything went blank...

I woke up with a heavy head.It felt as if a huge load was kept on my head.As if I had been drunk all night and it was the hangover colonthree emoticon
"Arggghhhh..... my head.." I screamed.
I squeezed my eyes and when I opened them.My view was blocked by a plate filled with hospital food.
I lifted my eyes and saw Rajiv holding it.
He placed the plate on my lap and sat beside the bed.
"yeh kya hai? " I asked him in a irritated tone.
"khaana hai... I hope you can see it with your own eyes.." he mocked.
"I can see what it is... par yeh laaye kyu ho?" I squinted.
"haaye... lagta hai sathiya gayi ho.. Bhoomi rani.. " he placed him palm on his head in a dramatic manner.
"abhi tumko yeh bhi nahi pata ki khaana khaane ke liye hota hai? " he looked at me.
"you must be kidding .... right? I'm never gonna touch that food..." I crossed my bandaged arms against my chest.
"kyu? vrat hai kya? karwa chauth ka??? itna pyar kabse barsane lagi mujhpe?" he widened his eyes faking surprise.
"haan vrat hai .... karwa chauth ka nahi hospital chauth ka colonthree emoticon bade aaye... " I twisted my lips.
"Dekho drama queen... mujhe pata hai nakhre dikhaate tum thakti nahi ho.. par mein thak jata hu tumhare draame jhelte ... jhelte ... ab zubaan band karo aur muh chalao..." saying this, he pushed a spoonful of food (khichdi colonthree emoticon ) in my mouth.
It tasted aweful squint emoticon I would have prefered rather starving than eating that disgusted food.
somehow, I managed to swallow it and tried to speak, when he pushed another spoonful in my mouth.
I made a poker face and snatched the spoon from him.
I filled the spoon with that food and stuffed it into his mouth.
He, at once, coughed and spitted it out "yeh kya tha.... chiii! yeh bimaar log khayenge toh mar hi jayenge.. " he blabbered.
"Wahi toh mein keh rahi hoon ... yeh khichdi nahi khichdi ka bimaar roop hai...par tumhe hi sauq chadha tha yeh khilane ka... ab lo khud khao..." I threw the plate at him, spilling the khichdi on his face and shirt pacman emoticon pacman emoticon
"hahahahaha.... " I laughed seeing his face.
"what's so funny? agar yeh tum par girta na... toh tumhe pata chalta... andhi makdi.." he frowned.
"Aree.. nahi mein tum par thodi has rahi hu? woh toh pehli baar itna bada gobar ka keeda dekh rahi hu na... kasamse bade pyare lag rahe ho..." I blurted out in between my giggles.
He frowned again ... to which I laughed even more... I laughed until my tummy hurted.
"Raju....." a voice came from the door.
I looked at it, I found a lady in saree looking at Rajiv.
Although her face looked familiar but I didn't recognise her.
"yeh kya haal bana rakha hai? " she muttered while cleaning Rajiv's shirt with a tissue.
I didn't like the way she nagged to Rajiv colonthree emoticon
But Rajiv smiled at her, it was a friendly and loving smile.
"Are you ok??" she asked cupping Rajiv's face.
My laughter had stopped , the moment she entered. But my heart started to burn nowcolonthree emoticon
Who the hell is she? And why is she sticking to Rajiv like a adhesive.. colonthree emoticonmy mind groaned.
Finally, Rajiv noticed my knotted brows and frown.
"umm... she's shreya.. my friend ... remember you met her at Nainitaal?" Rajiv introduced her, holding her shoulders.
I was numb... my brain stopped working... my breathe hitched...
Shreya.......???
