~~~ My heart calls you ~~~
Shreya Deekshit, a young intern at city hospital, Mumbai.
"Hello, han where are you?" She asked someone over phone.
"on the way sweetheart, Just coming" the reply came from other side.
Shreya narrowed her eyebrows in doubt, "Parth, are you driving? Maine kitni baar tumse kaha hai ki driving karte time phone pe baat mat kiya Karo"
"Oh come on shreya, I can handle both" Parth replied.
"Shut up, mujhe is tetah ki laparwahi bilkul pasand nahi Parth, tumne helmet pehna hai ya wo bhi nahi?" Shreya scolded her faïence.
" roj helmet pehanta hu yaar, ek din nahi pahnuga to koi fark nahi padne wala." Parth replied chuckling at shreya.
"Parth.. This is enough ok, agar tumne apna ye careless attitude change nahi kiya na to... to main humari engagement tod dungi...kisi aur se shadi kar lungi, soch lena!" Shreya said warning him.
"Oh no... Shreya aisa mat Karna please, main mar jaunga... I am sorry, aaj bhool gaya tha helmet...I promise Main...
His sentence left incomplete and a loud sound of a collision fell into shreya's ears.
"Parth...hello...hello.. are you there? Hello Parth... Hello... Hello..." Shreya continued shouting having worst thoughts on her mind.
o-o-o-o
Some minutes later, she was sitting on the bench outside the operation theater, with Parth's family, in the same hospital she was working.
"ek din helmet nahi pahnuga to kya fark pad jayega?"
Shreya burst out in tears remembering that line. She was trying to be strong so that she could support Parth's family but seeing her crying they also broke down.
The doctors reported them that Parth is in coma and chances of his survival are almost negligible. His brain was severely injured in the accident.
Parth's mom could not compose herself, "No...I want my son back, I want my Parth back" she was screaming dragging the attention of people around her.
Shreya rushed to her and hugged her, "auntie please, sambhaliye khud ko, Kuch nahi hoga Parth ko. He'll be alright. Coma se bahar aa jayega wo. Hum sab ka pyar aur duayein hain na uske sath. He'll be back!" Shreya said trying to give them some hope.
"Kyun jhoothi dilasa de rahi ho hume beta, we know that we have lost him" Parth's dad said and started crying .
Shreya too felt loosing her strength. But still she had some hopes alive.
The next day the head surgeon called shreya in his cabin to have a very important talk.
"Yes doctor, kya baat hai? Aapne kaha bahut urgent hai?" Shreya asked taking her seat.
The doctor looked at her and gathered some courage to speak, "Shreya, humare paas Mumbai ke hi ek dusre hospital se ek emergency call aayi hai. Ek patient hai, having hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, he is struggling with this fatal disease, and his heart is on end stage failure."
Shreya was hearing him keenly, "so what doctor?"
Doctor took a sigh, "Shreya tumhe to is disease ke bare me achhe se pata hoga hi, he needs an immediate heart transplant. Agar agle 24 ghante ke andar andar uske diseased heart ko ek healthy and functioning heart se replace nahi kiya gaya to, uska bachna impossible hai"
"I know that, lekin main isme kya kar sakti hu?" Shreya said coldly.
"Shreya, Parth ka heart us patient ke liye perfect match hai." The doctor said fixing his eyes on shreya's shocked face.
"What do you exactly want to say?" She asked confusingly.
"Shreya, Parth is in coma, he is brain dead but uske dil ki dhadkane abhi bhi jinda hai, aur shayad kuch waqt ke baad wo bhi nahi rahegi lekin agar uska heart us patient ko donate kar diya jaye to uski jaan bach sakti hai shreya. Jabki Parth ke bach pane ki ummeed 1 percent se bhi kam hai" the doctor emphasized on his words.
Shreya got up with a jerk, "what nonsense doctor? Aap aisa soch bhi kaise sakte hain. Parth aapke liye ek brain dead patient hoga, lekin mere liye, Parth ki family ke liye, he is still alive. Ummeed kam hai to kya hua, ummeed to hai na. Phir kisi aur ki jaan bachane ke liye main Parth ki jaan nahi lene dungi aapko. " shreya shouted angrily.
The doctor too got up and came to shreya, "shreya, main tumhare emotions ko achhi terah se samajh sakta hu. I know tum Parth se kitna pyar karti ho, but ye waqt emotional hone ka nahi hai shreya, tum khud ek doctor ho, tumhe bhi kahi na kahi pata hai ki Parth ab wapas nahi aane wala, bas tumhara dil is sach ko accept nahi Karna chahta. Dekho shreya, please think practicality, tumhare paas kisi ki jaan bachane ka mauka hai."
Shreya looked at him crying silently.
"The patient is a cid officer shreya, aur uski jaan bahut keemti hai." The doctor said placing a hand on shreya's shoulder.
Shreya sobbed, "Parth ki jaan bhi mere liye utni hi keemti hai."
Doctor became silent for some seconds, he knew that it's not easy to convince shreya. "shreya someone wants to meet you!" He said and a man came inside.
Shreya looked at him. The man came and stood in front of her.
"Hello Shreya, This is Sr. Inspector Abhijeet from cid." The man said forwarding his hand.
"Hello..." Shreya replied coldly ignoring the handshake.
Abhijeet took his hand back, "Shreya, wo patient hai na, Daya, main uske sath kaam karta hu. Lekin wo mere liye sirf ek colleague nahi, mera sabse achha dost aur ek chote bhai jaisa hai. Aur main use marte huye nahi dekh sakta. Ghar pe baithkar coffee enjoy kar rahe the hum, jab use achanak attack aa gaya. 24 ghante se bhi kam waqt hai uske paas. Main tumhare samne hath jodta hu, please use bacha lo , please" he broke down in front of shreya.
Shreya couldn't see him crying in front of her, she turned hr face away.
"Aap log kyun nahi samajh rahe. agar main apne dil pe patthar rakhkar ha bol bhi du to mere han kehne se kya hota hai, Parth ke parents ke bare me socha hai, uski maa, uski choti Behan, uske dad, wo sab kabhi taiyar nahi honge." Shreya said sobbing.
The doctor smiled lightly, "wo already taiyar hain shreya, main unse baat kar chuka hu, lekin unhone faisla tumhare upar chod diya hai. Tum bahut samajhdar ho shreya aur mujhe pata hai tum kabhi koi galat faisla nahi logi."
Shreya was shocked knowing that Parth's parents are already ready to donate his heart. She was facing a big storm in her heart. Her heart was saying that Parth can recover, but her brain was saying that he can never recover. She looked at abhijeet. A man was standing there joining his hands infront of her, requesting her to save his friend's life. Shreya thought a lot and finally, the head win over heart, the doctor in her won over the lady crying for her Faïence. She became ready to sacrifice his love to save a stranger's life. She turned to the doctor.
"Doctor, Parth Ki dhadkano ko humesha ke liye zinda rakhne ka, shayad yahi ek rasta hai. Jab uski family khud taiyar hai to mujhe bhi koi problem nahi hai." She turned to abhijeet, "Don't worry, aapke dost ki jaan bach jayegi".
Abhijeet smiled obligingly, "Thank you!"
Shreya wiped her tears and left.
