As nikki enterd the hospital the next day she saw a lot of commotion outside the hospital . Lot of ambulances and private vehicles seemed to come in .For a minute , she was scared with all that hustle and rushed to the reception to know what was the matter .
"Dr Nikita , don't you know .Riots have broken out in the city . And its really bad . No one knows why or how they began. But , the state is very bad and we have so many people come in , all hurt and bloodied." , Sister Lovely told her grimly and Nikki looked around , shocked at the state of the people , all battered and bloodied , some screaming hysterically , streamed in
Even as she took some time to take in those sights , she reminded herself that now was a time to prove her capacities.Like a true professional she got to work , working with her senior doctors , providing them with all the assistance they needed . More than once she was overwhelmed , but the hospital needed her to be calm and helping right now. She couldn't afford to give in to her depressed feelings . She would have to go on , if not for her own sake , then for the sake of all those helpless people .
In the evening as her extended shift got over , she ran to the terrace and broke down , tired and angry at the happenings of that day . All this blod shed was too much for her to handle .She was a doctor after all and was meant to save lives ; but seeing batterd up people in such horrible states ... No amount of time and study would prepare her for such a tragedy . Her heart and her whole body was breaking into pieces. She was unable to stop her tears , unable to get over that pain , both physical and emotional.
Suddenly she felt strong arms on her shoulder , lifting her from behind . She turned and rushed herself into his arms , burying her face into them , relieved with his interference . He held her tight and moved his hands over her hair , calming her down silently , giving her his strength.
"Its OK Nikki .Everything will be ok ," , he consoled her tenderly and continued to hold her.
He had seen her distress for the whole day and even through it , seen her put on that solid front and do everything that was demanded from her . He couldn't deny his friendship to her today . She needed his support , needed his presence .
After some time he saw her calming down. She had stopped crying and her body was no longer shivering . He let her move apart .She lifted her face to him and as she took in his calm expression , involuntarily a sob broke out
" why abhi .. why did this happen? How can people do such things to each other ? "
He touched her shoulder gently .
" I know this is vey hard on you Nikki , but this is life ...As you have happy days ,you have days like this too>With time you will learn to take them in your stride. You know its just a matter of time . But let me tell you one thing . You were great today ."
Comforted with his words , she went back into his arms trying hard to to forget the realities of the world.
But she couldn't stop herself from wondering how this world will be a different place if she had a guy like ABhi in her life , to support her, and to talk sense to her .
After some time abhi broke away from her , suddenly uncomfortable with the realization of how long and how close they had suddenly gotten to each other .
" Oh Nikki I wanted to give you some good news ... the project seems almost finalised and the minister and his team are coming day after .You have to organise a party where they will meet whole sanjeevani staff " , he told her urgently as she looked at him tenderly.
